106: Laver Cup Memories, Facing Federer & Behind the Scenes | EP 106
The gang's all here and we're diving headfirst into all things Laver Cup. Jack, John, Sam, and Stevie look back at the very first edition, from Jack and John’s doubles wins to some of the wildest on-court moments. They debate whether the event can keep its spark without the Big 3, and why Carlos Alcaraz already feels essential for Team Europe. The crew breaks down the format, payouts, and shares a classic Fabio Fognini story. An episode of Nothing Major wouldn’t be complete without a little self-roasting, this time revisiting some of their worst predictions of the season... Plus, get a peek behind the curtain at how the wonderfully chaotic Nothing Major group chat becomes the podcast you listen to, watch and (hopefully) enjoy. 00:00 Kicking Things Off 00:24 Back to the 2017 Laver Cup Chaos 01:00 Jack Showing Off in Doubles 06:13 Laver Cup: Challenges and Changes 09:32 Format, Future, and What Could Be Better 12:21 Player Stories and Inside Dirt 14:29 Laver Cup vs Davis Cup: Who Wins? 16:47 Jack’s Wild Ride with John McEnroe 18:05 Favorite Captains and Hypothetical Showdowns 20:40 Roasting Our Past Predictions and Tennis Takeaways 23:12 Behind the Scenes: How This Madness Gets Made 28:44 Signing Off and Looking Ahead
