Nice Point Podcast
The tennis podcast for those who've never watched a match. This sport has teenagers and icons and travels strictly to the most idyllic international destinations. It involves money, psychology, celebrity, and meteorology. It's got Ben Shelton, Carlos Alcaraz, Aryna Sabalenka, and Emma Raducanu. (It is the BEST women's sport.) On Nice Point we hang out and talk histories, narratives, and gossip. We pick favorites and heels. We make informed predictions and bad bets. Pop in some earbuds and hang out with us. We bet you'll start now.
