We’ve reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, where the women’s draw has swallowed up all but 4 seeded players. Amidst the chaos, we’ve still got the defending champion, the US Open champion, and a number of players who’ve been expected to break out for a while. On the men's side, only seeded players have made the quarters. We chat a bit about the surprises (Borges, Cazaux) and whether anyone will stop Novak from getting his 11th title. We also talk about the kits we liked (Coco and Grigor ftw); the Sports Illustrated layoffs; and, in light of so many mothers playing this Australian Open, we answer a listener question about maternity and paternity leave.  4:05 Men’s quarters - Djokovic rounding into form 16:25 Women’s draw: some would say carnage, we would say chill  28:40 Noskova d. #1 Swiatek  33:10 The fashions: are the fashions in the room with us? 37:45 Eight mothers in the AO draw: what are the tours doing on mat/pat leave? 50:45 Sports Illustrated lays off all editorial staff 57:00 Andre and Steffi present … Simona?
