HUGHESY, WE HAVE A PODCAST
<p>At first, we thought a vagrant had got past security, but the more he spoke, we realised... IT WAS NONE OTHER THAN COMEDY LEGEND/TENNIS AFICIONADO DAVE HUGHES! He joins hosts Mike and Lizzy to talk about his red-hot love of the game, and to brag about all the times he's sat front row at Australian Open finals. Hear about the time he was part of Roger Federer's hype crew, and also about the time he saw Adam Hills' foot melt while playing a set in 42-degree heat. You know what? It's actually really quite entertaining.</p> <p><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fausopen.com%2Flisten&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042083007%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=4OiN2pMVcICMcXO57D4aR94gF6az8%2FRZFAeQ815%2FP7U%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="266dcf2c-5dbc-4905-a15e-9720775637f5" data-linkindex="0" data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody">AusOpen.com</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iheart.com%2Fpodcast%2F1300-the-ao-show-106540123%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042107828%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=oUdrSuxWRx9V6pqJcfIaU%2BbINdvya%2B%2BWG7CUJWpaIg0%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="f2053cd3-8c74-422b-bbc3-0843fbdc0a74" data-linkindex="1">iHeart</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpodcasts.apple.com%2Fau%2Fpodcast%2Fthe-ao-show%2Fid1447078646&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042131818%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=rCKye8hxU9d2oUIE4UYTS8JW1vNWcxDBM%2BHGEyhKH1U%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="e9fcc135-537f-4ee9-9677-aadd61150fc5" data-linkindex="2">Apple Podcasts</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fopen.spotify.com%2Fshow%2F5iZNWXsa7TQNs88F0PAmB1%3Fsi%3D720671f241a14afe&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042152470%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=bB2X1GkWXopQgt9935CrmalKfAocyPMAmU3GITCp6H4%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="2d440f23-1139-4256-8e8a-7a56954c6f5f" data-linkindex="3">Spotify</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FTheTennis&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042173622%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=vGhoiJEBKsmfekdVHagZVGugzelBAqUpviDbNzp8Rt4%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="346c6b03-82f8-4fb7-b901-21eee31b6396" data-linkindex="4">YouTube</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

COURTNEY TENNIS LATELY?
<p>Tennis journalist and all-round lovely bloke, Courtney Walsh sits down the Pod Laver crew before he flies to Roland Garros. It's a French Open preview that asks all the big questions! Who's in form? Who's not doing so great? What's with the panama hats? How do you pronounce "Jodar"? If you love to French, then so do we. Or should that be oui oui?! No, just checked, oui oui means yes yes.</p> <p><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fausopen.com%2Flisten&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042083007%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=4OiN2pMVcICMcXO57D4aR94gF6az8%2FRZFAeQ815%2FP7U%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="266dcf2c-5dbc-4905-a15e-9720775637f5" data-linkindex="0" data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody">AusOpen.com</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iheart.com%2Fpodcast%2F1300-the-ao-show-106540123%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042107828%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=oUdrSuxWRx9V6pqJcfIaU%2BbINdvya%2B%2BWG7CUJWpaIg0%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="f2053cd3-8c74-422b-bbc3-0843fbdc0a74" data-linkindex="1">iHeart</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpodcasts.apple.com%2Fau%2Fpodcast%2Fthe-ao-show%2Fid1447078646&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042131818%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=rCKye8hxU9d2oUIE4UYTS8JW1vNWcxDBM%2BHGEyhKH1U%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="e9fcc135-537f-4ee9-9677-aadd61150fc5" data-linkindex="2">Apple Podcasts</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fopen.spotify.com%2Fshow%2F5iZNWXsa7TQNs88F0PAmB1%3Fsi%3D720671f241a14afe&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042152470%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=bB2X1GkWXopQgt9935CrmalKfAocyPMAmU3GITCp6H4%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="2d440f23-1139-4256-8e8a-7a56954c6f5f" data-linkindex="3">Spotify</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FTheTennis&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042173622%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=vGhoiJEBKsmfekdVHagZVGugzelBAqUpviDbNzp8Rt4%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="346c6b03-82f8-4fb7-b901-21eee31b6396" data-linkindex="4">YouTube</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

SABA THE HUTT
<p>Mike and Sam are back, and many people are now saying these two knuckleheads are culturally more important to tennis than The Woodies and Rod Laver combined. Not me though, I would never say that. They talk Madrid, Sinner's dominance and the appropriateness of Marta Kostyuk's celebratory backflip. There's also wild Alcaraz wrist injury speculation, blatant ethnic stereotyping, and a May the Fourth-themed guessing game that will leave the whole family horrified.<br><br>All jokes aside, it's actually pretty funny. So stop reading this slop and go listen!</p> <p><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fausopen.com%2Flisten&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042083007%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=4OiN2pMVcICMcXO57D4aR94gF6az8%2FRZFAeQ815%2FP7U%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="266dcf2c-5dbc-4905-a15e-9720775637f5" data-linkindex="0" data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody">AusOpen.com</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iheart.com%2Fpodcast%2F1300-the-ao-show-106540123%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042107828%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=oUdrSuxWRx9V6pqJcfIaU%2BbINdvya%2B%2BWG7CUJWpaIg0%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="f2053cd3-8c74-422b-bbc3-0843fbdc0a74" data-linkindex="1">iHeart</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpodcasts.apple.com%2Fau%2Fpodcast%2Fthe-ao-show%2Fid1447078646&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042131818%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=rCKye8hxU9d2oUIE4UYTS8JW1vNWcxDBM%2BHGEyhKH1U%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="e9fcc135-537f-4ee9-9677-aadd61150fc5" data-linkindex="2">Apple Podcasts</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fopen.spotify.com%2Fshow%2F5iZNWXsa7TQNs88F0PAmB1%3Fsi%3D720671f241a14afe&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042152470%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=bB2X1GkWXopQgt9935CrmalKfAocyPMAmU3GITCp6H4%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="2d440f23-1139-4256-8e8a-7a56954c6f5f" data-linkindex="3">Spotify</a><br><a href="https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FTheTennis&data=05%7C02%7Cerrol.kerr%40tennis.com.au%7C40a106134b0d4654b6eb08de53e838e2%7C61aa9c8da7734a7c84701dd8062e404a%7C0%7C0%7C639040454042173622%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=vGhoiJEBKsmfekdVHagZVGugzelBAqUpviDbNzp8Rt4%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="346c6b03-82f8-4fb7-b901-21eee31b6396" data-linkindex="4">YouTube</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
