Coaches Philip, Berisford & Montgomery finally get a colonial commoner to interrogate - Mr Chris Valego.

Chris tells us about his Superman roots and when he decided to lose all his tennis friends by switching to Pickle. He discusses the difficulties, the similarities and when he realized that Pickle was not “pattercake”.

We have, also, some dedicated mansplaining, stories of sadistic Nuns and inserting beetroot.

The SPS unit discuss good manners - on and off the court, kit (especially stupid hats), kids swearing at school, electrified squirrels and Google translate...

First time in new digs at KCAT TV studios in Los Gatos so you can see our ugly mugs on Xfinity Ch15 and YouTube.

In this episode Beri celebrates Los Gatos rowing club's outstanding success at the National Rowing Championships in Florida, Monty bemoans LAX and the cost of a flat white in LA while Philip recounts his encounter with a very untidy Tahoe bear.

We also talk a bit about the beautiful game, Soccerball, before discussing the 2nd most beautifullest game, Pickleball, about whether playing the same people aids improvement and we answer listener questions about DUPR.

Number 2s with 3 English whose life is ever more defined by heavy dinking. We done a guest in the form of Beri relative Mr Jackson - who talks Elite rowing, Berkeley & 6000 calories a day.

Coping with "Nasty Nelsons", 'illegal' paddles (they're bouncy) & recent rule changes are discussed too.

Montgomery drools whistfully over great food back in London & Beri describes in too much detail a Rugby toilet jape which has left him scarred and explains a lot.

People of the future will look back on this very 1st ep with Montgomery, Philip and Berisford with fondness remembering 3 Englishman brought together by a love for Pickleball, which led to a serious dinking problem.

We had Beri's schoolboy briefcase catharsis, Philip's admission how he started Pickleball and Monty's harsh lesson in 'Merican sarcasm.

Plus a caller who complained of getting "smashed in the Kitchen".
