Paul is joined by Matthew Coleman to cover the Australian Open from top to bottom. From Carlos Alcaraz’s record breaking run to Rybakina’s beguiling domination we’re giving our take on the first slam of the year.

And something just felt a little off this year - whether it was great match ups that resulted in terrible match play, or the entire Italian team seeming to have tummy issues. We have a new BaeTP including the debut of Stan the Man plus in a shocking twist of Cross Court - Paul is taken to trial for skirting the ESPN overlords. He’s either punished or rewarded with a slice of warm apple pie and melted cheese. You be the judge!

For our preview special of the Australian Open, Paul is joined by pod mainstay Matthew Coleman to break down the action Down Under. We cover the tops and bottoms of the tour as we boomerang from Medvedev’s new title to United Cups pure entertainment. And we have our always 100% correct, backed by science, predictions of who is making runs on Rod Laver Arena and who is tumbling out of Margaret Court early. Plus a new BaeTP and Lobsbians covering everything from Tiafoe’s water bottle to Zizou Bergs’ thirsty twerking.

Welcome to the new season of The Ball Boys! Paul is joined by Ivy Pochoda to break down the off season action and everything from Heated Rivalry to Venus’s wedding to the heartbreak of the Carlos Alcaraz and Juan Carlos Ferrero split. We cover the battle of the sexists - oops, sexes! And we have two new games for you. With Heated Riv-rally we’re deciding who on tour is a Shane, an Ilya, a Scott, or Kip. It’s like when we all used to argue about who was a Samantha and who was a Carrie, but hornier. And we have a round of New Yours Resolutions where we match players to resolutions, because The Ball Boys know best.
