Why does the tennis world feel weird right now? The US Open is right around the corner. Tony shares his thoughts and then gets into really important topics like: Tennis fans are joking that Jannik Sinner got a BBL (he didn't). Mboko has a dream run at home in Canada. Should tennis stop having runner up speeches? Ben Shelton is giving Andy Roddick vibes (especially Andy's era with Mandy Moore). Lindsay Lohan is officially back and Tony is thrilled. The US Open is having a mid-life crisis. Join the fun by following us on Twitter or Instagram! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Late last month, President Donald Trump's Environmental Protection Agency proposed rescinding the “endangerment finding" — an Obama-era addition to the Federal Clean Air Act of 1963 that recognized the dangers of climate change. Host Nash Jones sits down Camilla Feibelman, director of the local chapter of the Sierra Club, and Ben Shelton, deputy secretary of the state's Energy, Minerals, and Natural Resources Department, to discuss what the EPA's proposal could mean for greenhouse gas regulations in our state. Later, the two discuss the EPA's decision to extend deadlines for states and the oil and gas industry to comply with methane standards set last year by the Biden administration, and how millions of tons of pollutants that would have been capped now won't be.Podcast Host: Lou DiVizioShow Host: Nash JonesGuests:Ben Shelton, Deputy Secretary, NM Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources DepartmentCamilla Feibelman, Director, Sierra Club Rio Grande Chapter

John, Sam, and Steve kick off your week “live” from Cincinnati, running down the biggest headlines in tennis, including Ben Shelton's maiden Masters 1000 title in Toronto and teenage Canadian sensation Victoria Mboko capturing her first title and rising to Canadian No. 1. The crew breaks down Shelton's explosive athleticism, undeniable clutch gene, and the tactical brilliance of his father, while also celebrating Mboko's stunning run in Canada and discussing her ceiling and career potential. And of course, there's never a wrong time to talk about the Big 4, the squad debates who truly got robbed of Masters 1000 titles in the shadow of their dominance. 00:00 Intro 01:25 Episode Overview 03:05 Cincinnati Tournament Insights 05:09 Toronto Tournament Highlights 05:26 Ben Shelton's Rise in Tennis 12:59 Women's Tennis Highlights 19:20 Upcoming US Open Predictions 21:35 Tennis Player Performance Analysis 22:17 Carlos Alcaraz's Travel Schedule 24:12 Masters Series Discussion 28:10 Life Advice Segment Debut 31:42 Outro and Cincy Predictions 31:56 A Wild John Isner Appears

Tennis commentator Jason Goodall joins the podcast to discuss all the action from the North American Hard Court Swing, fresh off the heels of Victoria Mboko and Ben Shelton winning their first Masters 1000 Titles in Canada. Goodall recaps how the teenager Mboko was able to go all the way on home soil, and looks at where finalist Naomi Osaka heads from here. The broadcaster also dives into Ben Shelton's breakthrough and consistency, and highlights the areas in which the American has made the biggest strides with his game. Goodall turns his attention to Cincinnati, where he's on site calling matches at the new and massively upgraded venue in Mason, Ohio. The commentator discusses the returns of Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz and the differences they possess in their elite skillsets, as well as what to expect from WTA World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka after some time off. And Goodall dives into several of the game's top storylines such as Novak Djokovic's lack of match preparation, Daniil Medvedev's struggles, and the competitive drive that Coco Gauff takes with her to the match courts. Hosted by Mitch Michals.

The Canadian Open (finally) ends, and with a shocker: Burlington, Ontario's Victoria Mboko snatches her first WTA title after starting the year outside the top 300, and Ben Shelton wins his first Masters event. Honestly, the longer format, the withdrawals of the top men, and the Cincinnati overlap all really hurt this tournament (the second-longest running in tennis history, btw!). We didn't want to contribute to this Naomi speech discourse, but I guess we do in a small way. Plus: Stefano Vukov's suspension has been overturned, That Guy is delulu (but in a very intentional PR type of way), and we take a question or two from the mailbag. 0:40 Burlington's Very Own 13:50 The Naomi Discourse - not doing it again! (well, a little)  25:00 Performance, Bye 29:20 The longer format is sucking the life out of the Canadian Open 39:45 Shelton wins his first Masters 1000, electronic line calling loses (again)  48:00 Stefano Vukov's ban by the WTA has been overturned in arbitration  59:50 A few questions from the mailbag

And why is the gear he wears always drenched in sweat? And we finish things off with Cross Court, where we are the line judge and jury in the case of the Messed up Mixed Doubles.  

Catherine, David and Matt were live on Friday night to look back on the dramatic final few days in Canada and ahead to Cincinnati. Part one - WTA Montreal. Rarely have we felt such conflicting emotions watching a tennis match as we did during Victoria Mboko's victory over Naomi Osaka. For Mboko, what made this run so special? And what does this title mean for her future? But what happened to Osaka? How much criticism should she get for her post match speech? And where does this tournament leave her? Part two - ATP Toronto (43m20s). Ben Shelton won his first Masters 1000 title. What developments did we see in his game this week? What gave him the edge over Karen Khachanov in the final? And what's his US Open Mix status? Part three - Coaching news and Cincinnati preview (66m57s). We cover Emma Raducanu's decision to work with Francisco Roig, Holger Rune hiring Marco Panichi, Aryna Sabalenka adding Max Mirnyi as a consultant, and the breaking news that Stefano Vukov has had his WTA Tour suspension lifted.

In another celebratory pod, Lucy and Eugene bask in the glory that went down at the Canadian Open where there was success on both the singles and doubles courts. Victoria Mboko, the 18-year-old Canadian wildcard, completed a fairytale run at her home WTA 1000 going all the way to the final in Montreal and winning the title. The new world No 24 took out Sofia Kenin, Coco Gauff and Elena Rybakina before beating four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka in the final. Osaka also played some good ball during her run to the final. The former world No 1, who returns to the top 30, saw off numerous seeds en route to the championship match that was somewhat overshadowed by events post-match. We share our thoughts. Staying in Montreal, Coco Gauff and McCartney Kessler won the doubles title. The American duo, who were linking up for the first time, beat Washington Open champions Taylor Townsend and Shuai Zhang in a thrilling final. Over in The Six (Toronto), Ben Shelton, the new world No 6, handled business.

David is back from holiday to join Catherine and Matt in discussing week one of the Canadian Open, where lots of the big names are out, there has been loads of good matches, and both draws feel pretty open heading into the final few days. Part one - WTA Montreal. We cover Victoria Mboko's special run to the quarter-finals, Coco Gauff's recurring double fault issues, Naomi Osaka's resurgence under new coach Tomasz Wiktorowski, compelling matches involving Madison Keys, Elena Rybakina and Marta Kostyuk, the unorthodox game of Aoi Ito, and the decision to give Eugenie Bouchard a wildcard so she could retire. Part two - ATP Toronto (from 49m). How much meaning can we take from a tournament without Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic? That's the task when assessing the men's event, which has seen Alexei Popyrin mount an impressive title defence so far, Daniil Medvedev continue to slump, and compelling final set tiebreak wins for Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton. There was also a strange complaint from Alejandro Davidovich Fokina leading to sweet spot social media aggro involving Dan Evans. Part three - US Open news (from 70m15s). With most of the US Open mixed doubles pairings having been announced, we quiz David on his views, and he throws a fun name into the ring for one of the remaining wildcards. There's also the launch of the US Open's matchmaker show to discuss. Tickets are on sale now for the Tennis History Conference at Wimbledon on Tuesday 9th December.

The broadcaster also weighs in on Madison Keys' fighting spirit, Elina Svitolina's renewed confidence, and Naomi Osaka's momentum in Canada after making a coaching switch. In the men's event, Duval dives into Taylor Fritz competitive drive after he advanced in a grueling three-set match with Jiri Lehecka. The former WTA pro also analyzes Ben Shelton's powerhouse style of play, Alex De Minaur's mobility, and whether top-seed Alexander Zverev or rising American Alex Michelsen can go the distance in Toronto. And Duval discusses her own tennis career, and the path that led her to the broadcast booth at Tennis Channel. Hosted by Mitch Michals.

Naomi Osaka also headlines after bouncing back from a disappointing DC stint with a new coach and fresh confidence, powering into the quarterfinals. What's driving her post-Mouratoglou resurgence?Over on the men's side, tensions flared between Ben Shelton and Flavio Cobolli (though we're not really sure why?), and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina sparked debate after complaining about an early wake-up—much to Dan Evans' irritation. Was he out of line, or does he have a point?Plus, the team looks ahead to the US Open and the surprising announcement of a new tennis-themed dating show, Game Set Matchmaker—which Kim suspected might be a late April Fools' joke. They also debate who deserves the final two wildcard slots at the inaugural Mixed Doubles event—and whether real-life couples like De Minaur/Boulter and Monfils/Svitolina (aka GEMS Life) should get the nod.SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

Lucy and Eugene are back after a little rest post-Wimbledon. Before recapping the brilliant Washington Open, we share our thoughts on Naomi Osaka parting ways with Patrick Mouratoglou. Osaka will be working with Iga Swiatek's former coach Tomasz Wiktorowski for a trial period starting in Montreal. Venus Williams was the story at the Citi Open. The 45-year-old brought the crowd and excitement to DC and made more history in the process. Taylor Townsend is the new doubles world No 1 following another title in Washington. Townsend is the first mother to be crowned world No 1! Ben Shelton and Frances Tiafoe met in the quarter-finals and the match delivered. Action now turns to Canada where Coco Gauff, Madison Keys and Jasmine Paolini are among the top seeds in Montreal. In Toronto, Arthur Fils makes his long-awaited return. The Frenchman is joined by fellow seeds Shelton, Tiafoe, Felix Auger-Aliassime and Gabriel Diallo among others.

RUNDOWN   Music history in honor of Tommy Mottola's July 14 birthday—Mitch details how Mottola signed Hall & Oates and running through each of their six No. 1 hits. The “audio clip of the week” spotlights former Cubs manager Lee Elia's legendary profanity-laden tirade at Wrigley Field after a 5–14 start in 1983. Mitch and Hotshot celebrate Seattle's sweep of first-place Detroit and reviewing the Mariners' 51–45 first-half record, good enough for a wild-card spot if the season ended today. Mitch explains why he's optimistic—his rotation is poised to string together quality starts, and an offense buoyed by hot streaks from Randy Arozarena, strong on-base work from JP Crawford, and newfound production from lower-order hitters means the club doesn't need Cal Raleigh to carry the load alone. Mariners bounce back from a blown five-run lead and near no-hitter loss in New York to sweep the AL's best Tigers, cementing a wild-card spot at the All-Star break. Mariners No-Table (Brady Farkas) unpack the unexpected selection of LSU lefty Cade Anderson (saved under slot, with a high floor) as a near-MLB-ready arm, dissect Julio Rodríguez's decision to skip the ASG before homering in each Detroit game, and express outrage that Gino Suárez (31 HRs) wasn't invited to the Home Run Derby. Mitch and Puck chat KJRn'ts Chapter 8 by commiserating over their sudden need for reading glasses and sharing a wild family dare in which Mitch finally ate an entire bowl of mushrooms after his son aced the SAT. They then catch up on life—Jason's youth baseball woes, Mitch's freshman at Arizona—and take playful shots at Jim Moore's “top sports radio hosts” rankings. In this throwback to Ep. 197 (July 5, 2022), Mitch sits down with Rhonda Smith Banchero to revisit her own collegiate battles—most memorably guarding Cheryl Swoopes—and to explore how her “tough-love” coaching shaped Paolo's rise to the No. 1 NBA draft pick. Rhonda shares the moment she bowed out of one-on-one after seventh grade, her deliberate accountability style at home, and the family's bittersweet pride as Paolo chose Duke over UW. Now that he's secured a record-setting $239 million extension, her insights on nurturing a champion feel more poignant than ever. From the news that Michael Jordan's Highland Park estate is now an Airbnb (no parties allowed) to celebrity-boxing matchups, LeBron's Beverly Hills compound, Wimbledon winners, and even the exit of Pearl Jam's longtime drummer Matt Cameron, Mitch and Hotshot pack a whirlwind of sports and pop-culture headlines into one rapid-fire segment.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose Podcast (Mariners on SI) Jason Puckett | Sports Broadcaster & Co-Host of the Refuse to Lose Podcast Rhonda Smith Banchero | UW Women's Basketball Legend & Mother of Paolo Banchero   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Celebrating Tommy Mottola's Birthday by Tracing His Early Role in Launching Hall & Oates and Featuring Lee Elia's Infamous Cubs Rant 23:58 | Mariners Enter All-Star Break Thick in the Wild Card Hunt on the Back of Emerging Rotation and Depth-Built Offense 42:07 | GUEST: Mariners No-Table, Brady Farkas, Resilient Road Swing, College Ace Picked at No. 1, Julio's ASG Opt-Out & Gino's Derby Snub 1:07:30 | GUEST: Jason Puckett & Mitch on Presbyopia, Mushroom Dares and Getting Snubbed in the Top-10 Radio Hosts List 1:48:05 | GUEST: Rhonda Smith Banchero, Seattle's No. 1 Pick Paolo Banchero Lands $239 M Deal—Mom Rhonda Smith on Raising an NBA Star, Facing Cheryl Swoopes, and the Duke Decision 1:54:07 | Other Stuff Segment: Golf course fight involving NHL player Nick Tarnaski at Alberta Springs, Jeopardy-style home run question and Gino Suarez's All-Star Derby snub, Adrian Peterson celebrity boxing bout vs. Joe Castaneda, Cal Raleigh's special Home Run Derby bats (including Seattle Supersonics tribute), Airbnb listing for Michael Jordan's former Highland Park home, return of John Tesh's “Roundball Rock” NBA theme on NBC, John Elway cart accident clearance, LeBron James's Beverly Hills mansion construction update, Wimbledon champions Iga Swiatek and Jannik Sinner comebacks, Ben Shelton's match and Trinity Rodman misidentification, Auburn's DeAngelo Barber marijuana arrest and drug law commentary, speculation about Tom Brady's next girlfriend, Matt Cameron departing Pearl Jam after 27 years, Lorenzo Lamas filing for sixth divorce, Alan G.
