“I feel a bit bad leaving a critical review because I do value the daily podcast helping us fans keep up with tennis.
However I find the bro-ish energy quite exhausting. I think it’s a bit strange that I’ve never heard an episode with a female co-host. I also wish that host was a little less egocentric. I’ve heard so many anecdotes about his university days. Similarly I don’t need to be reminded on a daily basis that Nicholas Jarry is five days younger than him.
I would also appreciate if they made a bit more effort to pronounce non-anglophone names correctly. If there’s time to look up stats on Tennis Abstract (which I find interesting) there’s time to check the pronunciations provided on the WTA and ATP websites.
The reason this is 2 rather than 3 stars is that there was one episode where the host gave betting tips, which I found really distasteful.
I know that a lot of people bet on tennis but it’s a side of the sport I find very seedy and have no interest in.
Again I appreciate the effort put into the show and I hope this feedback is taken as constructive. I found it very amusing that when given feedback about interrupting guests, the host interrupted them just as much but apologised each time.”
