  • Catherine : stop

    Catherine, please STOP interrupting David and Matt as they speak. It happens constantly. Very annoying to listen to, and , its rude. You ask them a question, then talk over them as they answer. A listener is hoping to hear David or Matts answer, but then you are butting in …..bad postcasting hosting manners.

  • Ignorance, Agendas,Arrogance

    They no nothing about tennis, their ravings constantly demonstrate it. Anyone who takes them seriously is a fool. They’re more about their personal agendas than tennis.

  • Not enjoying as much since the athletic takeover

    Long time listener. The athletic collabs are not the way to go. I miss listening to just the three of you. Off course with the occasional guest appearances of your favourite female friends. I miss the old vibe!!!

    Love the show but please can we have more Matt F insights! Also more focus on doubles as this podcast should be about all tennis not just mainly the singles.
