The TBS is really worth supporting. It's the best tennis podcast around...by a long way. Jonathan and James work so well together delivering their material in a fun way with imaginative language, but when needed, serious topics are well researched and clearly presented. Lots of back numbers too.

A great WTA wrap, highly enjoyable and helping to plug the gap between seasons. My fave quote from this one "I'm leading you to the water...please drink". Good one Jonathan. 👌😊

Holy (wholly?😜) doubles matrimony!!😭😭😭 Lol! Love it Jonathan. 🫶 As for the Turin final, I'm with you James. I was not fully invested in it, it was not riveting viewing, I was easily distracted. It was spasmodically good.Thought I might have been alone there! 🤗

Congrats on #400! 🥂Like many others, I've listened to them all more than once, often to remind me what happened at whatever tournament I'm currently watching a year ago, 2 years ago, 10 years ago. As for the thirst ep, doesn't matter what number it is, just so long as it comes! 😜Well done guys. 😊

Wow! Some 750 tournaments, light bulb moment, love that idea, Jonathan. And why ever not have them 🤗 Did you come up with that on the spur of the moment or had you been thinking about that for a while? And a 1000 on grass would be a dream for me too. Love your thoughts on this topic. 😊

All of this is good, but HR and how you balance your show were great. Keep on doing things how you do them now,you've got the mix right. It's what drew me to TBS in the first place. We don't need predictions or in depth analysis of every match.🥱HR: "plot their demise". 😭😂Some great quotes in there!🙌

👋Hi guys. Great to hear you again. Always good to listen to your catch ups. And while I'm here, I also enjoyed ep 102 and Clare's rant, which I totally agree with, on the outrageous price of TNT here. I'll be listening to USO on the radio and watching some highlights on YouTube. 🤗🤧😊

A great listen,as ever. Love the Vee we're seeing now. Something which crossed my mind about the re-hiring of Ferrara. Could Sinner have said to him last year--*look, I have to let you go now, but don't go away,hang in there and I'll have you back when the dust settles*--Just my own wee thought! 🤗🤔

I enjoyed this so much. Great questions,I found the answers,like pt1,very refreshing and cleansing because they rid my mind of a lot of clutter put there by the comms. I'm relying more on radio now(TNT crazy expensive here) so to listen to Courtney would be such a treat 😘 Part 3,4,5-yes please!🙏

I really needed this to fill that awful void after Wimbledon, thank you guys. The best Wimbledon wrap there is. Thanks for the heads up on the Sally Jenkins piece, icing on the cake! And now, the question has to be asked...will you come back again next year? 😂🤗🤔

NEW: #Wimbledon wrap is out now! "Luck Be a Sinner This Fortnight"
