  • HOT TAKES AND WARM CREAM
    Jul 9 2026

    Mike and Lizzy are running on adrenaline and courage - and a little bit of whisky - as they slice into the biggest moments to come out of Wimbledon so far. There's also a scorching hot take on the tournament's ridiculous 11pm curfew, some chatter about excessive post-win celebrations (think: bicep kissing) and a full analysis of Flavio Cobolli's trips to the dunny. Also, our hosts make a great case for Alex de Minaur to exorcise his demons by dancing on stage with Bad Bunny. You know it makes sense. Listen now!

  • PARISIAN NIGHT SUITS
    Jul 2 2026

    A Wimbledon preview with slam poetry, tennis adjacent stories and the long-awaited return of Watch Watch. The guys try to read the mind of Jannik Sinner and also marvel at the bold rapping stylings of Dominic Thiem. Also is Novak's yoga pose as strong as it could be in the new Lacoste commercial? It's a valid question and we attempt to answer it in everyone's favourite tennis pod (if you don't count the like, 18 that are ahead of us), Pod Laver Arena!

  • WILD THINGS
    Jun 25 2026

    Serena Williams has a Wimbledon wildcard and the news is sending us all loopy. Mike takes the opportunity to vent about a stranger sitting too close to him on a plane. And Lizzy questions the necessity of naming an asteroid after Jannik Sinner. Was Corentin Moutet's $40,000 fine too harsh? Is Aryna Sabalenka tweaking? We answer none of these questions and more!

    Come for the Indiana Jones reference, stay for the Chiko Roll chaser. It's Pod Laver Arena, people.

  • TENNIS ADJACENT
    Jun 18 2026

    Comedians Mike Goldstein and Lizzy Hoo talk all things grass season and try to solve the bone-chilling mystery of 'Why Were There Loose Coins in the Shower?' Watch in disgust as the butcher the pronunciation of the names of several international tournaments, and then decide once and for all which sport is harder to play: Tennis or Golf? The answer, will shock you. It definitely shocked me.
    It's Pod Laver Arena! The only podcast that's been asked to record on the lawn of the White House (we declined the offer)!

  • FROZEN TOMATOES
    Jun 11 2026

    Mike and Lizzy reflect on Roland Garros and compare Flavio Cobolli's overhead smash technique to that of Mike's aunty Linda. They then effortlessly transition into offending the entire Kingdom of Great Britain with some dubious accent work and cultural digs. But you simply have to listen to hear Mike's very special idea to ask tennis players to let him stay in their hotel rooms once they're eliminated from a tournament. It's goofball stuff and, like most things in this tennis podcast, it's not well thought-through. Come and get bagel'd by us.

  • A NET POSITIVE
    Jun 4 2026

    Sam and Lizzy cannot get enough of the spicy affair that is: Roland Garros 2026! Dodgy line calls, soiled shorts, and a player whose frenetic legs have reached the coveted 'Quick Sticks' power rating. It's everything we ever dreamed.

    Plus, we have an extra delicious helping of Bernie Tomic hijinks, and we make a pitch for Tennis Australia's new CEO to send us to Vegas. Will he do it?! Either way, it's all a net positive.

  • TEENY TINY SMILES
    May 29 2026

    Comedians Mike Goldstein and Lizzy Hoo are on the scene to blubber about Roland Garros drama, and brag about their recent viral video success (dissing Pickleball/Mike's mile-high drunken run-in, etc). They examine Naomi Osaka's recent fashion choices, the beauty of allowing humans to make contentious line calls in the French, and the creepy little smile that Jannik Sinner does in his new Gucci commercial. It's tennis news, commentary and fun - and it's big in Sweden for some reason!

  • HUGHESY, WE HAVE A PODCAST
    May 21 2026

    At first, we thought a vagrant had got past security, but the more he spoke, we realised... IT WAS NONE OTHER THAN COMEDY LEGEND/TENNIS AFICIONADO DAVE HUGHES! He joins hosts Mike and Lizzy to talk about his red-hot love of the game, and to brag about all the times he's sat front row at Australian Open finals. Hear about the time he was part of Roger Federer's hype crew, and also about the time he saw Adam Hills' foot melt while playing a set in 42-degree heat. You know what? It's actually really quite entertaining.
