In this harrowing episode, Mike and Lizzy tease the end of Pod Laver Arena as we know it. But... is there a shocking twist on the horizon? (spoiler alert: yes). The two tennis tragics analyse Rafa Jodar's hot temper, discuss the pitfalls of buying tennis balls from Temu, and lament the end of Elina Svitolina and Gael Monfil's marriage. There are robots, that Quizzy Hoo thing we do, a Roger Federer-themed nod to the coronavirus and exclusive pics of Elina Rybakina's new puppy. And by exclusive, I mean: widely available. But it's fun to imagine! Download and cram it in your ears.

In this hurly burly ep, Mike reveals he was force fed an oyster while blindfolded at the AO 20207 launch and Lizzy examines the deep parallels between Alexander Zverev's rise to world #1 and Steven Bradbury's baffling 2002 gold medal victory. They talk about what makes a great tennis celly, which players smashed their racquets in the most convincing manner, and perform a mind-bending analysis of all the hectic moustaches we're seeing lately (Carlos Alcaraz, we're looking at you). Also, there's a quiz question if you're into that sort of thing.

This bumper edition of Pod Laver Arena features our first ever Crimestoppers Edition of Watch Watch and a comprehensive look at Daniil Medvedev's disqualification from the China Open for smacking a ball into a spectator's eyeball. Fun! Also, Mike pokes the bear by suggesting Aryna Sabalenka posts on Instagram too much and it's therefore affecting her game. I'm sure nothing bad will come of that. Also, come marvel at Terance Atmane chucking a wobbly, which in turn leads to him chucking his racquet. But did he damage a spectator's eyeball? Lend us your ears to find out.
