In this hurly-burly ep, Mike reveals he was force-fed an oyster while blindfolded at the AO 2027 launch and Lizzy examines the deep parallels between Alexander Zverev's rise to world No.1 and Steven Bradbury's baffling gold medal victory at the 2002 Winter Olympic Games. They talk about what makes a great tennis 'celly', which players smashed their racquets in the most convincing manner, and perform a mind-bending analysis of all the hectic moustaches we're seeing lately (Carlos Alcaraz, we're looking at you). Also, there's a quiz question if you're into that sort of thing.
