What's The Call?

"Don't Shoot The Massager"

In this episode, Theo and Andrea are joined by Tamara Prenn to unpack an Australian Open that felt strangely quiet - until it suddenly wasn’t. They break down why the first week and a half lacked chaos, and how the final few days completely rewrote the story: big-match drama, genuine shocks, and moments that will shape the rest of the season. From the “good for tennis” factor to what five-set grit reveals about the sport, they dig into what made the closing stretch feel so seismic.The conversation also hits the tournament’s biggest talking points: Novak’s level (and whether 25 grand slam is still a realistic goal), Carlos’s historic achievement and what it signals for the future, and the grey areas that always spark debate - from medical timeouts to the politics around coaching narratives. Plus: why the men’s field desperately needs a consistent “third man,” why the women’s game stays more unpredictable, and a fun detour into tennis’s influencer/WAG economy that’s quietly changing the ecosystem around the sport.Make sure to subscribe to Tamara's Substack: hittingzone.substack.comFollow us on Instagram, Tiktok and YouTube @whatsthecallpod

High Fashion, High Drama

At the Australian Open, the tennis has been electric, but honestly, so has everything happening around it. In this episode, we get into all the moments where sport, fashion, personality, and atmosphere collide, from surprise legend appearances and brand crossovers to headline-making outfits and players fully owning the stage. We talk Rafa’s return to Australia, the growing crossover between tennis and high fashion, Naomi Osaka’s much-debated walk-on look, and why the game increasingly feels as much about identity and presence as it does about performance.We also dig into what we’re calling the tournament’s “crowd moments” when the audience stops being background noise and becomes part of the story. From players thriving off hostile energy to ongoing debates about gamesmanship, noise, and where support tips into disruption, we explore where intensity ends and interference begins. Along the way, we reflect on why the women’s draw feels particularly gripping this year, how pressure and personality shape matches, and what all this chaos tells us about how tennis culture is evolving.Follow us on Instagram, Tiktok and YouTube @whatsthecallpod
