IT AIN'T STOSUR 'TIL IT'S STOSUR

About this episode

Mike and Sam interview Samantha Stosur about her experiences and the upcoming Billie Jean King Cup.

OMG, the humanity! Mike and Sam become quivering wrecks in the presence of Aussie tennis greatness. In this very special edition of Pod Laver Arena, they talk to the heroic captain of Australia's Billie Jean King Cup team — none other than Samantha Stosur! Watch in awe, as Sam moves from genuine pity of our hosts to a general acceptance of their vapid buffoonery. The former world #4 spills all the beans on the upcoming BJK Cup clash and reveals whether local hero, Talia Gibson will embrace the nickname 'Gibbo' (can confirm it's no, no she will not). Oh, and Sam also harks back to the time she kicked Serena Williams' ass in the US Open final. Solid, solid memories. Cram it in your ears!
