Desert Wins, Miami Begins

Season 1 · Episode 9

Thursday, March 19, 2026 • Duration 31:03

This week, Theo and Andrea are wrapping up an unforgettable Indian Wells, where Aryna Sabalenka finally got her hands on the title after a dramatic rematch with Elena Rybakina, and Jannik Sinner added another huge milestone to his growing hard-court legacy. They break down both finals, from Sabalenka’s nerve in that wild deciding-set tie-break to Sinner’s rock-solid win over Daniil Medvedev, and get into all the little moments that made the weekend so good, including trophy chaos, on-court drama and a very strong showing from Gucci.

They also look ahead to Miami, where the vibes, conditions and likely contenders could not feel more different. From the sunshine double question to dark-horse predictions, Dominic Thiem comeback rumours and a final call on which players would be most likely to end up at the club before a match, this episode has everything: tennis, fashion, history, chaos and a lot of strong opinions.

Carlos in Orange, Sabalenka’s Ring & The Draper Rumour

Season 1 · Episode 8

Thursday, March 12, 2026 • Duration 34:52

Theo and Andrea are back with a live dispatch from Indian Wells, aka Tennis Paradise. With Andrea on the ground in Palm Springs, they dive into what it’s really like inside one of the most iconic tournaments on the calendar, from desert heat and player practice access to Novak’s on-court theatrics and the surprisingly intense food scene (including a $25 fluorescent cocktail). They also break down the unique vibe of Indian Wells, celeb sightings, and why players secretly love spending weeks in the desert bubble.

Elsewhere, the pair get into the latest tennis fashion and tour gossip. From Nike’s attempted redemption arc with Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner’s new kits, to Naomi Osaka’s headline-grabbing look and the ATP’s new “tunnel walk” style arrivals. Plus they clear up the Jack Draper breakup rumour, react to Aryna Sabalenka’s huge engagement ring, and share their picks for which players would dominate a tennis catwalk. As always, it’s tennis, fashion and tour drama all rolled into one.

Buzz Cuts, Big Contracts & The Road to Indian Wells

Season 1 · Episode 7

Thursday, March 5, 2026 • Duration 35:23

In this week’s episode, Theo and Andrea catch up on all the latest from the tennis world as the tour rolls toward Indian Wells. They chat through the biggest talking points of the week - from Emma Raducanu’s new Uniqlo deal (and the surprisingly big pay bump) to the WTA tournament in Austin introducing a “rage room” where players can smash rackets in private. They also react to Daniil Medvedev’s very on-brand Dubai title win without hitting a ball, debate Jack Draper’s controversial buzz cut, and unpack Stefanos Tsitsipas’s very honest comments about choosing tournaments based on appearance fees.

The conversation also drifts beyond tennis, because this week in sport has been anything but boring. Theo and Andrea share their thoughts on the latest season of Drive to Survive, and break down some early storylines heading into the new Formula 1 season (plus a surprise civil wedding for Charles Leclerc). To wrap things up, they each pick their Indian Wells dark horses on both the ATP and WTA sides as Andrea prepares for some boots-on-the-ground reporting in the desert.

The Creator Era of Tennis feat. Liza West

Season 1 · Episode 6

Thursday, February 26, 2026 • Duration 52:33

In this episode, Andrea and Theo are joined by tennis content creator Liza West, known for her sharp take on finals fashion, match culture, and the evolving media landscape of the sport. Liza shares how her background in social media marketing, alongside her early experiences as a Wimbledon ball girl, shaped her path into tennis storytelling. Together, they explore what it means to build a voice in a traditionally guarded industry, carving out space within a niche sport while navigating criticism, confidence, and online noise.

From tennis fashion and iconic style eras to the players redefining personality and presence on tour, the conversation moves well beyond the court. Andrea, Theo, and Liza dive into social media’s growing influence, tensions within sports media, and the complexities of modern tennis culture, alongside a thoughtful discussion on GLP-1 medications and the narratives surrounding bodies and performance. A candid and refreshingly honest episode about where tennis is heading next.

Who Gave Them a Microphone?

Season 1 · Episode 5

Thursday, February 19, 2026 • Duration 38:56

This week on What’s The Call, Andrea and Theo are back and they’ve got plenty to unpack. First up: Naomi Osaka. After the duo discussed her match and the “grunting debate,” Naomi posted what felt like a very direct (and very viral) response: “who gave them a microphone?” They break down what they actually said, why fan conversations matter in sport, and why tennis can feel intimidatingly technical — plus why they’re committed to keeping it fun, accessible, and honest.

From there, it’s a whirlwind of headlines: an Australian player’s brutal retirement statement calling out toxicity and abuse in the tennis world, Medvedev’s latest comedic meltdown over “square” balls, and Yannick Sinner’s new Nike ACG look (with a subtle dig at his past outfits). Then it’s full Winter Olympics mode: the Olympic Village condom shortage, a jaw-dropping bronze medal “confession” that feels like a movie moment — and the emotional highs and lows of elite sport, from heartbreak crashes to pressure-fuelled collapses. The episode closes with a final call on the question that underpins everything: when careers are decided in split seconds, how much is skill — and how much is surviving the moment?

Stefanos Tsitsipas Drops In…

Season 1 · Episode 4

Thursday, February 12, 2026 • Duration 59:42

Stefanos Tsitsipas slid into the DMs… and this guest turned out to be a bit of a blast from the past. In this episode, Stefanos opens up about navigating a challenging period, what it’s taken to feel like himself again, and why rediscovering the joy of competing has mattered just as much as results. We also get into favourite Slams, the grind and beauty of clay, and the tournament that delivers his ideal mix of tennis and escape.

Off court, things get even better. Stefanos shares his pre match rituals and superstitions, tells some genuinely brilliant tour stories, and reveals what happened the first time he ever drank alcohol… alongside Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer. We talk life on tour, online trolls, blocking with enthusiasm, the realities of the tennis calendar, kit hits and disasters, and finish with quick fire calls you won’t want to miss.

"Don't Shoot The Massager"

Season 1 · Episode 3

Thursday, February 5, 2026 • Duration 57:55

In this episode, Theo and Andrea are joined by Tamara Prenn to unpack an Australian Open that felt strangely quiet - until it suddenly wasn’t. They break down why the first week and a half lacked chaos, and how the final few days completely rewrote the story: big-match drama, genuine shocks, and moments that will shape the rest of the season. From the “good for tennis” factor to what five-set grit reveals about the sport, they dig into what made the closing stretch feel so seismic.

The conversation also hits the tournament’s biggest talking points: Novak’s level (and whether 25 grand slam is still a realistic goal), Carlos’s historic achievement and what it signals for the future, and the grey areas that always spark debate - from medical timeouts to the politics around coaching narratives. Plus: why the men’s field desperately needs a consistent “third man,” why the women’s game stays more unpredictable, and a fun detour into tennis’s influencer/WAG economy that’s quietly changing the ecosystem around the sport.

High Fashion, High Drama

Season 1 · Episode 2

Thursday, January 29, 2026 • Duration 39:30

At the Australian Open, the tennis has been electric, but honestly, so has everything happening around it. In this episode, we get into all the moments where sport, fashion, personality, and atmosphere collide, from surprise legend appearances and brand crossovers to headline-making outfits and players fully owning the stage. We talk Rafa’s return to Australia, the growing crossover between tennis and high fashion, Naomi Osaka’s much-debated walk-on look, and why the game increasingly feels as much about identity and presence as it does about performance.

We also dig into what we’re calling the tournament’s “crowd moments” when the audience stops being background noise and becomes part of the story. From players thriving off hostile energy to ongoing debates about gamesmanship, noise, and where support tips into disruption, we explore where intensity ends and interference begins. Along the way, we reflect on why the women’s draw feels particularly gripping this year, how pressure and personality shape matches, and what all this chaos tells us about how tennis culture is evolving.

AO Is Back

Season 1 · Episode 1

Thursday, January 22, 2026 • Duration 37:04

The Australian Open is officially underway and we are fully in our Happy Slam era. In this episode we catch up on the first couple of days in Melbourne and all the reasons the AO feels like the best slam, from the city wide energy to the tournament’s constant innovation. We talk new fan experiences and tech upgrades, the opening ceremony spectacle with Federer, Agassi and Ash Barty, and why the One Point Slam was content gold and genuinely good for tennis.

We also get into the actual tennis so far, including solid starts for Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka, Venus Williams fighting hard at 45, and Emma Raducanu navigating the chaos of late night scheduling. Plus, we cover the moments that already sum up this tournament: bar court drama, players yelling at rowdy crowds, ball kids fainting in the heat, and a few extremely unfortunate stomach issues. We wrap with our Final Call picks: the player we cannot stop watching, the moment that already defines this Australian Open, and the most perfectly chaotic Happy Slam thing to happen so far.

Introducing…What’s The Call?

Thursday, January 15, 2026 • Duration 34:07

On the very first episode of What’s the Call, Andrea and Theo go courtside on the return of tennis season and why the Australian Open always hits different. They break down the early Aussie swing results, who looks in form already (hello Sabalenka), and which warmup wins actually matter once the Slam pressure kicks in.

They also get into the One Point Slam chaos, Djokovic stepping away from the PTPA, Carlos Alcaraz splitting with Ferrero, and the viral Nairobi wildcard moment that had tennis fans doing a double take. Plus, their first “Final Call” with Australian Open predictions, dark horses, and a few hot takes to kick things off.
