Love Michelle’s positive vibes she brings. Something tennis defiant needs. Love the gear talk as well seeing I’m a big tennis nerd. All around a great podcast!

Loved the episode with Quinn Borchard. The emphasis of fun in his approach to junior tennis makes total sense. No drill is more important than fostering the love of the game. As a parent of a junior tennis player, I really appreciated listening to his perspective. Way to go, Quinn and James!

Mama Okiwan · Feb 2022

Great tennis podcast with interesting and diverse content. My only gripe is that (thanks to this podcast) I now use the term “cheugy” far more than I’d like to admit….

Dirty Sherpa · Nov 2021

I’ve been reading and watching the TW reviews for years and have recently gotten into listening to podcasts during my workouts and work commutes. Talk tennis is the best podcast for any tennis fan whether you love geeking out on the latest gear, trends, players, or anything tennis related. Thoughtful insights from the cast who express an obvious love for for the game. I enjoy their personalities and playful banter which keeps things fun, entertaining, and real.
