    It's only been a few days since the last pod but so much has happened at Indian Wells for Catherine, David and Matt to get stuck into. Part one - ATP (00:00 - 40:17) It's been a thrilling week on the ATP side with the return of Jack Draper and Arthur Fils helping to reinvigorate the tour. We discuss Draper's epic win over Novak Djokovic and the technical tweaks which have helped Fils on his return. But will it still be a Carlos Alcaraz - Jannik Sinner final? There's chat about Alcaraz's absurd level against Casper Ruud and Sinner's steel in seeing off a fine performance from Joao Fonseca. Part two - WTA (40:18 - 1:11:48) The matches may not have quite lived up to expectations so far, but there's still been plenty of intrigue. We cover Iga Swiatek's perfect tactics against Karolina Muchova, Aryna Sabalenka displaying how she's evolved her game by beating Naomi Osaka handily, the impressive form of Jessica Pegula, Elena Rybakina and Victoria Mboko, and the worrying pattern of Mirra Andreeva losing her composure in matches. Part three - News (1:11:49 - 1:23:50). We react to reporting in The Athletic about how the ATP and Saudi Arabia plans to reshape the men's tennis calendar by going on a shopping spree and buying back tournament licenses.

The Athletic's NFL Insider Dianna Russini tells Rich why the Ravens pulled the plug on the Maxx Crosby trade and reveals Baltimore's front office actually spoke to Trey Hendrickson while Crosby was in the building yesterday, if the Raiders can still get two first-round picks for the All-Pro DE, and if Kyler Murray will be suiting up for the Minnesota Vikings next season.

Do the people who run the sport... really love the sport? If there's no effort to be decent, where do the lies end? And if Steve Ballmer's already negotiating, what is his minimum viable punishment?• Previously on PTFO: Ballmer's Tree-Money, the Whistle-Blowers and the Document You've Been Waiting For• "Bron got me on sea bass"• Subscribe to TrueHoop by Henry Abbott(Pablo Torre Finds Out is independently produced by Meadowlark Media and distributed by The Athletic.

"I finally had come to terms with I am a physical education teacher and I need to start incorporating some of this stuff because kids love it." "The warmups for our sprints, it doesn't have to be so rigid and it's a perfect time to explore with some of the stuff we're doing." "We still time all that stuff to just reinforce that what we're doing is working. You've gained weight. You're running the same speed, but you've gained 20 pounds. Those are all PRs in my mind." "Don't ever stop doing athletic things. Don't stop sprinting, jumping. Because if you do, it's going to be a bugaboo to get back." "I'm all about doing hard things... you're going to do it and you're going to compete and it's going to be fun and then you'll realize it wasn't that bad." "Once you put the work in, I think that's a big factor of it is you got to kind of disassociate and just go out there and perform... The amount of hours that those guys put in, I think that's a huge thing is just go perform. Don't be the gold medal guy, just go do it."
