Mandy and Kevin discuss two movies that depict famous tennis matches of the past. First is "Battle of the Sexes," starring Emma Stone and Steve Carell, which depicts the legendary 1973 tennis match between Billy Jean King and Bobby Riggs;  and second is the Swedish film, "Borg/McEnroe" starring Sverrir Gudnason and Shia LaBeouf, which depicts the lives of two great tennis rivals, Bjorn Borg and John McEnroe, and the 1980 Wimbledon Final match they played which is widely considered the best tennis match ever played.
