Grab a towel and join Paul with special guest and pod favorite Ivy Pochoda as they break down the wet and wild action coming out of Miami. In honor of March Madness, we have our own Sweet 16, Elite 8, and Final 4 but Ball Boys style. We celebrate the historic wins of Sinner and Sabalenka, debate Miami versus Indian Wells, and have a new BaeTP ranking with a new leader and this tournament’s Moist Valuable Player, Arthur Fils.

Today Paul is joined by hottie merch model and two time ball boy Ben Kersten to break down the latest from the desert as we’re talking all things Indian Wells. We breakdown the hottest matches, and we talk about the players matching the hottest breakdowns around the tournament. Sinner, Medvedev, Sabalenka and Rybakina just gave us one of the greatest final Sunday’s ever. Plus we have a new set of Lobsbians and a new Cross Court - opening a query into queering Sam Querey’s bracket quandary.

We keep the love going this episode as we are joined by special guest Ball Boy, Tom Vellner, author of Thirty Love. This gay tennis romance novel comes out March 10th everywhere. We talk about the slow burn of a romance novel, the logistics of falling in love on tour, and the euphoria of queer stories where things work out in the end. We also put Tom to work and talk the latest Lobsbians from Hillary Duff’s new tennis music to Vacherot’s can’t miss post match interviews. And we cover the tantrums and hot runs that had us hot and bothered around the tour.
