On this Friday episode of Nothing Major, the guys welcome TNT host Adam Lefkoe to the pod! 
Lefkoe pulls back the curtain on landing the Roland-Garros desk job. He talks about cramming for tennis coverage through podcasts and Tennis Channel, then learning on the fly alongside legends like Brian Anderson, Jim Courier, and Lindsay Davenport.
Lefkoe also explains how he builds instant rapport with players, the moments that make him most nervous on air, and an uncomfortable interview exchange when Andre Agassi asked Andrey Medvedev about the war in Ukraine. Later, he reveals which guests he’d love to bring back — including Novak Djokovic, Andrey Medvedev, and Coco Gauff — before the group previews major Roland-Garros storylines like Novak’s chase for No. 25 and whether Jannik Sinner can survive deep five-set battles.
They wrap things up with listener-style questions, sponsorship talk, and a hilarious travel pet peeves draft centered on airport and plane etiquette.

On this Monday episode of Nothing Major, Sam Querrey, John Isner, Steve Johnson and special guest Steve Weissman recap Madrid and preview Rome. Weissman explains how he writes and runs TC Live, then the group breaks down Jannik Sinner’s emphatic 6-2, 6-1 win over Alexander Zverev in a 56-minute Masters final and debates what it would take to beat Sinner, plus where Zverev fits behind Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic. 
They cover Marta Kostyuk beating Mirra Andreeva for a WTA 1000 title, discuss Kostyuk’s backflip background, and highlight Hailey Baptiste’s upset of Aryna Sabalenka saving six match points.

Ethan Quinn joins live from Madrid to talk tour life, Sam calling his first ATP title, and staying cool under pressure. He breaks down his aggressive, forehand-first game, love of serve-and-volley, and the origin of his “Cobra” forehand. From Fresno to NCAA champ at Georgia, he opens up on the harsh jump to pro—losses, College initiations, terrible haircuts, European peeves, and levelling up mentally and technically.
Plus: the debut of Major Memories, a new segment dropping every last Friday of the month, and the guys rank Madrid arrival fashion fits, where Diallo shines & Quinn gets roasted.

On this Friday episode of Nothing Major, the guys interview lefty Cincinnati semifinalist Terence Atmane (“The Magician”) about doing card tricks, starting tennis at 7 after playing Wii, going all-in at 14, and nearly switching to Fortnite/Call of Duty esports during COVID. He shares taking a six-hour IQ test (158), learning to manage overthinking and anger on court, and what clicked during his Cincinnati run, confidence from qualifying, playing free as an underdog, and a “delusional” mindset of being the favorite. Atmane also discusses the Fermi paradox and believing in aliens, French-player camaraderie (including Gaël Monfils), sneaker culture, and a Pokémon collection he values around $500k–$600k. The show wraps with fan questions and life advice!
