    On this Friday episode of Nothing Major, John Isner, Sam Querrey and Stevie Johnson debate replacing the show jingle, then Sam unleashes his “air freshener guy” rant. The guys dive into tennis’s biggest on-court meltdowns, sparked by Daniil Medvedev’s Monte Carlo racket smash and Iva Jovic's suggestion, revisiting classics from Baghdatis, Nalbandian, McEnroe, Youzhny, Kyrgios, Serena, Tarango and more, and pick a top five for fans to vote on.

    They also break down the best non-cash tournament prizes (Stuttgart Porsches, Indy’s RCA electronics giveaways, Federer’s cow, Rolex watches, and Laver Cup gifts). Finally, they launch a fan-driven search for the most beautiful tennis court in the U.S. and answer listener questions on memorable shots, friendship boundaries, and how hard to push kids in tennis.

  • 165: Sinner Reigns in Monte Carlo, Iga x Rafa & Clay Season Outlook | EP 165
    Apr 13 2026

    On this Monday episode of Nothing Major, Sam, John, and Stevie break down Jannik Sinner’s dominant run in Monte Carlo, and what it signals for the rest of the clay season. Is he now the player to beat on this surface?

    They also unpack the final, including Carlos Alcaraz’s performance and the impact of the conditions, before zooming out to a bigger conversation: can Sincaraz realistically challenge the Big 3’s Masters 1000 records?

    The conversation then shifts to the Iga Swiatek–Rafa Nadal crossover, a rare moment between two dominant forces on clay. The guys explore what impact Rafa can have on her as she looks to rediscover her best level. We also touch on Holger Rune’s rapid recovery, with a potential return in Hamburg sooner than expected.

    Along the way, there’s a brief detour into Coachella stories, before the episode wraps with a look ahead to the clay swing — key storylines, contenders to watch, and who might be driving away with two Porsches this week.

  • 164: Big 3 Doubles Debate, Ranking Tennis Influencers and Our Worst Segment Ever | EP 164
    Apr 10 2026

    Sam kicks things off with our official Influencer Power Rankings — and yes, it gets controversial (with a special mention you won’t expect).

    From there, John and Steve dive into the best (and most random) non-tennis sponsorships in the game — from yachts and burritos to Capri Sun and Bass Pro Shops.

    Then… things completely fall apart. The guys attempt a “Below Deck: Tennis Edition” segment, building the ultimate yacht crew — and it quickly turns into what might be our worst segment ever.

    We somehow recover with fan questions, including the ultimate debate: who’s the best doubles player out of the Big 3?
