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.

It's time to celebrate the outfits and outbursts, the dudes and feuds, the hot shots and low blows of the ATP and WTA tours with the Second Annual Bally Awards. Paul is joined by his Golden Globes, Matthew Coleman and Matthew Paluch to give out the most prestigious awards in niche, gay, tennis, comedy podcasting. Find out who wins awards like Best Manchild - is it Daniil Medvedev or Jelena Ostapenko? And who takes home the Lobsbian of the Year - the Laver Cup couch or the Carlos Alcaraz puppy cam. And of course we have our Golden Bally for BaeTP of the year. Don't miss the original opening song, a touching in-memoriam, and our predictions for 2026.

The Ball Boys put the rear in year-end with the ATP and WTA Finals. Paul is joined by media darling, Brooklyn tennis icon, and co-creator of Talk Hole, Eric Schwartau, to break down the final stops on the tour. We discuss the ASMR of tennis, debate tennis etiquette and that tainted WTA finals ceremony. Plus we cover who came out on top in 2025 between Carlos and Jannik and we have some predictions of who might be retiring and who’s taking home some big trophies in 2026. And we end with a new case in Cross Court, where the new ATP logo is put on trial in the case we’re calling “whatever happened to fun.”

The Ball Boys are putting the slice in sliced and diced for a special Halloween episode. Paul is joined by OutLoud Sports’ own Adam Laroche (@adamlaroche) and we cover the ghouls and goblins of the tour from Shagnhai to Basel. We talk about our favorite final girl moments, and review tennis terrors with “She Already Done Had Curses.” Plus we have some ideas on where the next Masters 1000 should really take place and how to drag up Wimbledon for week two. And our Lobsbians span everything from the No Kings March to butterfly nets to diss tracks.

Paul is joined by the first member of the Ball Boy Development Program, tennis fanatic and hair deity Benjamin Kersten, to talk the ins and outs of the Asian swing of the ATP and WTA tours. We give some love to Iga and Coco for their recent form on and off the court, have some ideas for how to get butts in the seats at the China Open, and try to solve the mystery of Jannik Sinner’s tummy. And in Cross Court we have the case of Cup Sighs, to figure out how to make the schedule just a little bit less insane.

The Ball Boys are wrapping up the US Open like half the field is wrapping up their shoulders, wrists, and egos. Tune in as Paul and Matthew run down the top moments from the men’s and women’s competitions. We celebrate the Taurus champions Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka who really are meeting the moment. We have SIX Lobsbians for you from the players puppy cam to red hot matches. And we return with another case of Cross Court, the case of Public Indecency. Tune in and hear the verdict.
