    The guys kick things off with the ATP Finals in Turin, Sinner riding his indoor dominance to yet another title and looking just about untouchable on home soil.

    They get into the showdown with Alcaraz, as the crew breaks down Sinner’s level and what Carlos might need to finally crack the code for future year-end runs.

    Then it’s on to the annual offseason migration, tennis players pouring into the Maldives in familiar fashion. Our mystery Maldives correspondent checks in with a full report on the sport’s favorite retreat, who’s there, what they’re up to, and why no one can seem to resist it.

    122: ATP Finals Breakdown, Alcaraz Year-End No. 1 and +1M Streams on Spotify | EP 122
    Nov 14 2025
    Sam, Steve, Jack and John break down the ATP Finals group stage with plenty of laughs and hot takes.

    Steve’s bold call came true as Carlos Alcaraz clinched the Year-End No. 1. Sinner cruised through his group without dropping a set or a service game. Is he the real indoor favorite? Can Fritz rebound to finish as top American? Does De Minaur have a shot, or is he just another stepping stone? And can the winner of Zverev versus FAA derail a Sincaraz final? Sam also gives his essential review of Alcaraz’s suit.

    We celebrate crossing one million Spotify streams and our nomination for a major award, then slide into classic Nothing Major territory. Sam shares his yoga class disaster, and we wonder why some guys insist on going shirtless in hot yoga. Ladies, we need your insight.

    121: Djokovic’s 101st Title, Rybakina Rules the WTA Finals & ATP Finals Preview | EP 121
    Nov 10 2025
    It’s a packed Monday on Nothing Major. The guys kick things off with the upcoming Battle of the Sexes in Dubai — plenty of curiosity (and a little doubt) about how seriously Kyrgios will take it.

    Djokovic’s 101st career title takes center stage next, with the crew debating his decision to skip the year-end finals and what it means for the tour. There’s also a shoutout to Learner Tien’s title run in Metz and Venus Williams grabbing a wildcard into Auckland at 45 — still swinging.

    Then it’s time for an ATP Finals breakdown, as we all agree one group is stronger than the other. On the WTA side, Elena Rybakina caps her season with record prize money and a clear message for 2026.

    To wrap things up, two teases you don’t want to miss: Maldives Watch and the mission to help Danielle Collins find a husband.

    120: Caroline Wozniacki Joins the Pod, Tour Finals Nostalgia and Favorite Couples | EP 120
    Nov 7 2025
    We broke our sacred rule for a very good reason. The former World No. 1 and 2018 Australian Open champion joins the pod for one of the funniest and unfiltered interviews we’ve ever done.

    Caro looks back on her incredible career, her comeback after motherhood and what life looks like now. Of course, we asked the important stuff too, like whether she actually earns frequent flyer miles, and how she became BFF with Serena (which somehow involves an unexpected doubles partnership with Venus).

    Meanwhile, the boys dive into the madness of the ATP Finals, reliving their own runs in London and debating who handled the O2 pressure best... spoiler, not all of them! Things take a turn with a “favorite tennis couples” segment that quickly goes off the rails, complete with hot takes, wild rumors, and maybe a little oversharing.
