Listen "30: Banter, Drills, and 50% Pickleball Wisdom | Ben & Joe"
Episode Synopsis
This one’s a vibe. Tommy sits down with his longtime drilling partners and good friends Ben Schofield and Joe Ambrosio for a conversation that’s equal parts hilarious and heartfelt.
They cover everything from how they started getting serious, to staying sharp through weekly tournaments, to why winning 50% of your points is actually elite (shoutout Roger Federer). You’ll hear gear talk, fitness confessions, and how stretching might be the most underrated move in pickleball.
Whether you’re here for laughs, drills, or just to hear guys give each other a hard time—this one’s worth the rally.
