About the show
Matt Khoury and Blake Shanks cover pickleball from opposite ends of it.
Matt runs mattspickleball.com, where he measures paddles and publishes the numbers. Blake is a pickleball photographer who spends most of the year at PPA events, which puts her around the players and the brands all year. She picks her paddles on feel and will argue with him about it.
Every week, they get into new releases and what's actually worth buying, what the tour is doing, and an interview with someone from inside the sport. Blake runs those.
