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 7 - Day 1 United Cup & Preview for Day 2","slug":"ep-7-day-1-united-cup-preview-for-day-2","published_at":"2026-01-02T13:18:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519/ep-7-day-1-united-cup-preview-for-day-2","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519","url":"https://talkn-tennis.captivate.fm/episode/ep-7-day-1-united-cup-preview-for-day-2","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/e0da723e-47c6-4efa-bf54-e8a7ec80e2a2.mp3","summary":"2nd January Hello everybody and welcome back to Talkn Tennis —I’m your host Chris who will be bringing you Day 2’s preview of the United cup. If this is your first time here, congratulations, you’ve already made a better decision than most tennis media this time of year. For the regulars, you know the drill: proper tennis chat, informed opinions, and zero interest in playing it safe. For the newcomers, this is where we break things down without the bullshit — we look at who’s actually in form, where the pressure sits, and what to watch before the matches even start. Today’s episode continues our United Cup daily coverage , focusing on Day Two — team construction, strengths and weak links, and the context that actually matters. Before we dig in we will look at some of the matches that have been completed. Match Review: Sebastian Baez (ARG) def. Jaume Munar (ESP) — 6-4, 6-4 Host (Chris): \"Alright, let's talk about the opening session in Perth, and man, it was a literal furnace out there. 36 degrees on the court, the ball was flying like a projectile, and we had a classic baseline war between Sebastian Baez and Jaume Munar . Now, I'll be the first to admit—I had confidence in the Argentine to maybe snag a set, but I didn't think he’d take Munar out in straight sets on a hard court. But the 170cm powerhouse proved me wrong. He played absolutely fabulous tennis. If you look at the stat sheet, there wasn't much daylight between them, but this was a match decided by the 'big points.' We saw so many games go to Deuce, and that’s where Baez really showed his teeth. His composure was rock solid. Tactically, he was solid out there. He stayed patient in the long rallies, but he was intentionally pulling Munar out of his comfort zone. He kept directing these short, wide groundstrok…","meta_description":"2nd January Hello everybody and welcome back to Talkn Tennis —I’m your host Chris who will be bringing you Day 2’s preview of the United cup.
