ABOUT THIS EPISODE
We’re backkk! Did you miss us? And it’s time for a new season for tennis players and this podcast. Luckily, we’re keeping it simple for our first episode back and doing a review of the Australian Open Draw! Who has a good draw? What matchups do we want to see? And which round one will have us at odds? 👀
We also discuss the California wildfires, so if you are able, here are various links to donate. And if you have been personally affected and have a link for donations, please reach out to us and we’ll add it!
