In Our (Mail) Bag

from The Body Serve Hosted by The Body Serve Tennis Podcast

It’s the hottest part of the summer and the post-Wimbledon haze is the perfect time to outsource our agenda planning by asking our readers for questions. Fortunately, your questions were well in sync with important topics of the day and what we wanted to cover. We discuss the documentary/vlog featuring Dasha Kasatkina and Andrey Rublev; the intimacy of the format; and the considerable fallout caused by Dasha’s coming out and their tough words on their home country. We spend a little time chatting about recent tennis news but that’s really not the focus – look out for questions on the world track and field championships, climate change, R&B covers of songs from other genres, and our current favorite snacks and TV shows. 2:00 Etceteras: Coaching splits, Matteo’s racist IG story, and TBS pet merch! Mailbag 7:35 The Kasatkina-Rublev doc and the immediate fallout 19:35 What to make of the ATP’s partnership with You Can Play to improve LGBTQ inclusion? 23:25 The Jamaican women continue to dominate sprinting; Shelly-Ann is the GOAT 33:45 Climate change as an existential threat to tennis 39:45 We’re not here for the scamming 42:25 Quick diversion about snacks 45:20 What are our favorite R&B covers of songs from another genre? 48:30 Why pundits are critical about Serena’s comeback(s) and fitness level 55:00 New TV we’ve been watching 61:50 To live and *let* live? To asterisk or not to asterisk?
