Gina and Neil recorded this one live at Pickleball Kingdom in Menomonee Falls, WI, where the courts stay full and the community is the whole point. They dig into why pickleball facilities are exploding, how each one builds its own culture, and why people show up at the same place day after day.

Throughout the episode, they bring a rotating cast of players and instructors into the conversation: new players trying their first tournament, longtime athletes crossing over from other sports, die-hard community members who treat Pickleball Kingdom like a second home, and even a few surprise guests who flip the script and start interviewing them. They wrap with a look at Vibe Getaways and why pickleball trips have become the sport’s newest obsession.

It’s loose, funny, and full of the stuff you only hear when the mics are set up courtside.
