Loved the latest ep with Liv, have enjoyed following her journey, she seems like a lovely level headed young lady and is a joy to watch. Agree with her, Billy Harris should be next guest! Also highly rate the preview/ review eps of the slams, the panels are a great mix and it really works.

Control the Controllables strikes a delicate balance between insightful content and approachable delivery. It's like having a casual conversation with a knowledgeable friend, exploring interesting themes without getting overly complex - a refreshing and engaging listen. DeirdreRead full review »

The latest pods were a really a great listen. I love the honest and personal opinions that the contributors gave. Can’t understand why newspapers and tv don’t scrutinise the Djokovic schedule. People either accept he should get preferential treatment or are afraid to critique. As ever Thank you...Read full review »

Congratulations Dan and team for in my humble opinion the best Tennis podcast out there.

I was recommend this podcast by another tennis parent and so very grateful they did. It’s inspiring, educational and supportive. I look forward to each episode as they all come filled with golden nuggets. A vital podcast for parents to help them navigate the tennis world.

As a tennis lover and parent, have enjoyed this podcast. All the guests and the topics addressed are right on the spots. Tennis is a lovely sport but easily get lost in. Holding a clear and appreciate approach to it is one of the ways to keep enjoying it and ride on the journey. Thanks very much.

This is the best Tennis podcast imho which I discovered during Lockdown, and have replaced the Tennis Podcast with as it covers all aspects of tennis from players, coaches, commentators, US colleges, tournament administrators, psychology and (if I’m still allowed to say this) the mental toughness...Read full review »

Episode 39 with Joe Dixon was so moving that I had to listen to it twice. Many thoughts and words I have experienced and I thought I was alone. The Tennis Coach’s life is unique and very few ‘outsiders’ understand what it encompasses. Thank you Joe for opening up.

Started listening to this in the 1st lockdown and just got back to it now. It is so useful for everyone to learn about not just tennis but how competitive sport can be. It is interesting to listen to all the different sides and approaches, from the players to everyone on the team. Great having...Read full review »

I think the Ali Filmer podcast might be my new favourite. So much to take from it. I’m lucky enough to have seen Ali at work and he delivers on all the areas he talks about. Great coach and team at Dukes.

Loving this podcast . Dan’s voice holds the attention and I love the honesty he gets back from his guests . Just love that the people on the podcast love tennis as much as me as not a lot of my friends or family know anything about it 🤣well done and much appreciated when walking the dog or gardening
Mrs Hoody via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/27/21
As a player, coach, and fan of tennis I can’t thank Dan and his team enough for this outstanding podcast.

I have listened to a ton of these now, but this Luke Jensen podcast was the best yet. Great guest and also showed how skilled Dan has become at interviewing.

Honestly I am genuinely upset when I finish an episode knowing I have to wait for more. Make my car journeys to London and back for work enjoyable and so many learnings taken away each time. Great host and love the genuine care and attention to each guest.

I’m a tennis fan and a tennis parent but I take away so many learnings from these podcasts and apply them to my day job and overall mindset!

The control the controllables podcast gives listeners such a great, informal insight into Tennis across all aspects of the pro game. The Nick Bollettieri interview has been my fav. to date. Keep up the fantastic insightful interviews.

As a parent of a top 100 junior, I find the podcast very insightful and educational. Very well done 👍.
PMacaba via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/07/21
Love this podcast, brilliant blend of education snd entertainment and exposing areas of tennis we might not otherwise see. I like Dan’s style of bringing stories out from guests and also sharing his own experiences. Great job!
Mr_Tall via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/22/21
This podcast is loved by our tennis parents, players and coaches alike. There is something for everyone and is always thought provoking and often explores areas of the sport that aren’t covered regularly elsewhere. Couldn’t recommend highly enough- keep up the good work!

This podcast gets better and better with every episode. Dan is a great interviewer, and more so than most, pushes the interviewees, makes the conversation personal and asks the questions that you want to ask yourself.

sturmejo via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/26/21
So refreshing to hear from someone who doesn’t pander, says it as it is but has the best interest of players and the sport at heart. Really interesting guy and I am sure has many more stories to tell. Excellent interview technique as usual Dan

Listened to a few of these now, really good questioning, would love hear one from club coaches on how we get more kids in to playing tennis and retaining there interest.
