Murray Musings

It's raw. It's passionate. It's real. It's... more-or-less unedited because Scott couldn't work out how to make his audio sound clearer...

IT'S THE FIRST PART OF OUR 2021 SEASON RUNDOWN WITH THE TENNIS AND BAGELS BOYS!!!

(Part 2 to be recorded and uploaded shortly over at Tennis and Bagels HQ!)

It's our 50th episode! Thank you all for sticking with us through this weird journey that we started over a year ago now, we can't quite believe that we've made it to this point and we can't quite believe people still listen on in to us, especially given the fact that Scott's been on 95% of the episodes and never shuts up. The perseverance from all of you to put up with THAT is simply astounding!

Anyways, come join us for a special 50th episode where we discuss Andy Murray's BIG coaching hire announcement made just last week. Does this mean a change of fortunes for our man after an up-and-down season so far?! Peter joins us on this call live from on-site at Indian Wells, a tournament that Andy will be playing in this coming week!

Safe to say it's all kicking off on this week's episode of Murray Musings!

A few weeks ago, Blair Henley was kind enough to take time out of her ridiculously busy schedule to come and chat with our hosts again here in Murray Musings HQ. She brought with her fresh new stories from behind the scenes of some of the most well-known and memorable tennis player interviews and interactions and also offered her thoughts on how Andy has been getting on in the second half of 2021. So get some popcorn, grab a drink, and sit with us a while as Claire, Peter and Scott talk with everyone's favourite sporting MC...

And here we finally are, with Peter's full recap of his time working at Indian Wells 2021 and his breakdown of all of his amazing experiences there. Join Claire and Scott as they listen in awed silence (or at least, as much silence as you can get when Scott's around...) to Peter's tales of Andy Murray related in-person chit-chat, which include a certain viral odour eaters shoe gift...

WE ALSO HAVE A NEW OUTRO SO STAY TUNED UNTIL THE END!

(...or just fast forward to the end of the episode...)

We're back! Finally! One day we'll get a regular upload schedule on the go again but until then, you'll have to make do with Scott's schedule which is basically whenever he can stop being lazy and get to work...

Anyways! We're back and we've brought a very special guest in to chat with us all at Murray Musings HQ. Bastien Fachan works in tennis social media, most notably having spent time at the Mouratoglou Academy while also tweeting out content for TennisTV! Oh, yes, Bastien's the man behind all of the gifs and clips that you see down your timeline throughout matches. We quiz Bastien on his introduction to tennis, how he got in to the social side of things, before moving on to talk about both Andy Murray, Roger Federer and what their uncertain on-court futures might hold...
