Zane screamed at Casey Diamond and the internet had thoughts. We're not letting it slide — Zane walks through exactly what happened in the Palm Beach playoff match, whether he regrets it, and where the line on screaming actually is (spoiler: he found it by crossing it). Then we read the meanest comments the internet had for him, rank pickleball's biggest beefs, debate the Memes of Pickleball controversy, break down every MLP playoff series and the seeding picks, and draft fast food items to build an MLP team.
Stick around to the end. Cameron Boltes joins us to share the story of his son Solomon and the memorial pickleball courts being built in his honor in eastern North Carolina. It's the most important pickleball project in the country right now, donate or share if you can.
