Today’s show is a special one in honor of Dolly Parton. Paul is joined by tennis super fan and GRUNT member Reid Rohling as we get ready for the final slam of the year, the US Open. We play New Balls Please to probe Reid on just how gay he is for tennis. And we round up our lobsbians which straddle everything from changeover beers to men’s makeovers. We recap Cincinnati with our WKRP run down and then we turn our attention to the US Open. We debate if the Mixed Doubles really counts as a slam, we brush off our crystal balls to predict the winners and losers. And we have a special segment called Bally Pardons where we look for the silver lining in some chaotic US Open choices.

On today’s show Paul is joined by Myles David, the creator of Tuned into Tennis as we recap the latest, greatest, and gayest in tennis. Catch up with our Lobsbians including the bizarro schedule of the National Bank Open and the proliferation of men in sports bras. And we recap all the highlights and lowlights with Up Sets, Upsets, and Upset. Plus we have a brand new case for Cross Court, where it’s Ca-Nada versus Can-Ada and we decide what needs to happen to save the fate of the tournament.

Join us on an Odyssey through the tours and while we put the diss in Odysseus. Ivy Pochoda is back to flex her classical Greek muscles as we explore the Isle of Lobsbos to find the things that made us gayer for tennis. Hint, it’s everything Jelena Ostapenko is doing on social media. Plus we cover the 250s and all the new winners in That’s So Hades and we debate what puts the Ick in Icarus more - the Alcaraz cornrows or Taylor Townsend’s mixed doubles announcement for the US Open. We also talk about the Trojan Horse that could be the new genetic testing system implemented by the WTA and offer up our solution. And we play Yes Gawd where we match top players to Greek gods. You don’t want to Artemis it.
