Episode 6: Auntie Alert 🚨🏓We’ve done the uncs. Now it’s time for the aunties.Susan Duffy and Debbie Rubin, better known around the Scripps Ranch Rec Center as the Banger Sisters, join Sam for an episode filled with friendship, laughter, questionable first impressions and absolutely no commitment to the soft game. 💥They talk about walking into the rec center for the first time, finding a community that feels like family and why pickleball is basically the Cheers bar without the alcohol. Debbie recalls body bagging Aunt Shelle on the very first point, the Banger Sisters imagine what their friendship would have looked like at 21 and Sam reveals the hilariously embarrassing thing he said after playing with Debbie for the first time. 🙈Underneath all the laughs is a conversation about kindness, staying young, showing up for your people and what it truly means to be an auntie.CHAPTERS00:00 Meet the Banger Sisters01:22 Who’s the Bigger Banger?04:20 Searching for the Soft Game06:15 These Are My Friends, Not My Mother’s Friends07:10 How Pickleball Found Debbie09:55 How Pickleball Found Susan11:25 The Cheers Bar Without the Alcohol15:25 How Susan and Debbie Became Friends17:15 First Impressions of Mouthpiece Sam19:15 Sam the Banger19:45 Don’t Mess With the Aunties21:55 Sam’s First Impressions of Susan and Debbie25:00 Debbie Body Bags Aunt Shelle 🏓💀27:35 How Pickleball Keeps You Young29:45 The Banger Sisters at 2132:00 Always Choose Kindness33:40 What It Means to Be an Auntie35:15 A Friendship That Gives You Strength37:00 Final ThoughtsOn This Episode🏓 Susan Duffy: @susanfduffy🏓 Debbie Rubin: @debbierubin🤐 Sam Orlansky: @mouthpiecesamJoin the 44X20 Community🌐 44X20pickleball.comLike, subscribe, and follow 44X20 Pickleball for new episodes, clips, community stories, and everything happening between the lines.📣 Got something to say?
