Jen & Jane join Joe & Joe to talk raising podcasters in the Midwest

Last Spring, movie theaters welcomed Tashi Duncan, Art Donaldson, and Patrick Zweig into their hallowed, historic halls. In the remainder of 2024, a better movie was not released than Challengers.

So here we are re-sharing two hours of our spirited conversation about this straight ball banger of a movie - the definitive greatest tennis movie.
