If you’re sick of polite commentary and PR-approved answers, this is the show that says what every tennis tragic is actually thinking. Each week we unpack the biggest stories from around the tour: five-set epics, first-round choke jobs, coaching scandals, umpire meltdowns and everything in between. From Melbourne to Madrid, Roland Garros to the US Open, we follow the circus, argue over the hot takes and celebrate the weird, wonderful world of modern tennis. In every episode you’ll get: Honest, unfiltered reactions to the latest ATP & \"some\" WTA results Grand Slam storylines, dark-horse picks and wildly biased predictions Deep dives on players, rivalries and the moments that broke the internet Mailbag questions, overreactions and the occasional stat that may or may not be accurate Cold beers, bad jokes and friendship-ending debates about who could beat who in their prime. Rated R for racquet abuse, questionable stats and insensitive jokes, Talkn Tennis is not sanctioned by the ATP or WTA – and definitely not approved by you…","last_synced_at":"2026-08-02T08:17:10.113273+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519"},"episode":{"title":"Ep 10 - United Cup 2026 & Brisbane Recap: Mensik Stuns Ruud, Kyrgios/Kokkinakis Reunite & Bencic Dominates","slug":"ep-10-united-cup-2026-brisbane-recap-mensik-stuns-ruud-kyrgios-kokkinakis-reunite-bencic-dominates","published_at":"2026-01-05T08:26:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519/ep-10-united-cup-2026-brisbane-recap-mensik-stuns-ruud-kyrgios-kokkinakis-reunite-bencic-dominates","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519","url":"https://talkn-tennis.captivate.fm/episode/ep-10-united-cup-2026-brisbane-recap-mensik-stuns-ruud-kyrgios-kokkinakis-reunite-bencic-dominates","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/b95f8e55-3b6d-459c-b21f-c187f440feeb.mp3","summary":"In this episode, we break down a chaotic and thrilling 24 hours of tennis from Australia.
