Advertise on podcast: Chewin' The Bat

Just like the good Ol' days of Chewin' The Bat, we kick off the pod with some very important miscellaneous sporting chat which has kept Swizzle up at night. With the calendar currently littered with all levels of competition at the moment, there is no shortage of tennis chat. A new high ranking for Sinner, and of course Australia's very own, the Demon. But most importantly, the boys delve into one of the most important topics of conversation this week in tennis, where are the oney's?

After our 25th unoffical hiatus, the CTB team are back, well sort of. Losing original member Gus to the thriving metropolis of London, and temporarily losing Producer Frae to WAG duties, we've called in the big guns for a replacement. Thats right, its Swizzle. Jack and Swizzle link up for another tennis nerd out, recapping the most memorable stories of the Australian Open. Forza Italia!!

It's an ongoing dilemma among the CTB household; a lack of podcast hosts. With Gus continuing his adventures (domestically this time) and our marvellous producer still galavanting in Europe, we've once again called in the big guns to accompany Jack in the studio. Swizzle is in the house ladies and gentlemen; a true tennis tragic. The boys talk all things US open, Djokovic's incredible record and massive news happening off the court - an ATP and WTA merge.

With both Producer Frae and Gus galavanting in Europe, Jack calls in the big guns for our first Wimbledon chat of the grass season. Swizzle comes in to chat about finals predictions, problematic tournament scheduling and we also round out our top 3 favourite Wimbledon moments.

We've got a feast for the ears for this one. Australia's very own Tristan Schoolkate talks about his tennis journey so far, his goals and ambitions for the future as well as some grim stories from the tour. As always, Jack throws some light-hearted discussions to the table regarding the best chocolate milk brands, and we find out that tennis wasn't the only talent of his growing up. We're stoked to have Tristan in for the first of many episodes of Tennis Unknown. Enjoy

Amid tennis' silly season, the boys delve into first round match ups at Roland Garros, title favourites and where our Aussies sit in the mix. Special guest Ken provides the crew with questions that leave everyone split, and Jack showcases a "not so sporty" sport of the week - an activity of the week.

One of the best Sport Of The Week’s we’ve had in a while opens this pod, before we discuss a successful little period in Aussie tennis. At the back end, the boys (and some special guests) nominate four albums for the rest of their lives

Sport of the Week is back with a bang and a couple of quickies before the boys delve deep into their favourite backyard games and sporting terms. The Chew later on sees a discussion of the merits and popularity of “corporate sports”. Stay tuned 'til the end for a big surprise

The opening episode of 2023 begins with the debut of a new Intro, and some red hot pasta chat. The boys then break down some of their favourite story lines in tennis so far this year, before dipping their toes into Australia's Test tour of India.

The boys are back (in town) from a lengthy hiatus. New studio, new haircuts, same bang average sporting chat. Tune in for a speedy recap of the year in sport, and a trip down memory lane of Sports of the Week.

Join the boys as they make their debut on the long awaited stage of an outdoor podcasting studio. From the leafy surroundings of Gus' parents backyard they tackle all the big issues. Ash Barty's retirement, whether tree snakes have teeth, and Jack's come from behind tipping season so far.

As promised last episode, the boys begin this one by presenting their top three favourite biscuits of all time. Some of the wildcards (especially a ludicrous pick from Producer Frae) will be sure to shock you. There’s a long overdue follow up on the lack of personalities in tennis, before a delve into the sport with almost too much personality to handle - rugby league football.
