196: The Best Slamless Player & Is Tommy Paul an 80’s Rocker? | EP 196

On this episode of Nothing Major, John, Stevie, and Sam recap Tommy Paul and Paige Lorenze’s “wedding of the summer” before checking in on the Wimbledon final bracket standings and teasing upcoming punishments for Isner at Wimbledon and Stevie at Roland-Garros. The guys then review their grass-court “buy/sell” picks, breaking down misses on Cam Norrie and Medvedev, debating Lerner Tien’s stock, and looking back at where their predictions went right and wrong. They also discuss who’s now the best active player without a Grand Slam title after Zverev’s Roland-Garros win, landing on Casper Ruud while comparing him with Tsitsipas and Fritz and revisiting retired contenders like Ferrer, Berdych, and Marcelo Rios. Plus, they guess players’ pre-match music choices, tease next week’s pop-culture name game, and answer fan questions about Wimbledon towels, ball-selection rituals, saying “we” for sports teams, and the possibility of a one-point-slam-style influencer event. 00:00 Show Intro and Agenda 00:27 Wedding Weekend Recap 02:42 Bracket Punishments Talk 03:39 Jack and Ad Reads 05:38 Grass Stock Review Picks 11:20 Best Without a Slam 14:41 Guess Their Walkout Music 18:11 Jovic Folk Music Guess 18:45 Keys And Swiftie Talk 19:13 Shelton Rap Debate 20:32 Fritz Fake Playlist Theory 21:18 Tommy Paul 80s Rock 21:40 Quinn And Tien Picks 25:16 Sam Tech Issues 26:58 Rocky Movies Detour 27:57 Fan Q Towels At Wimbledon 30:28 Ball Selection Rituals 31:41 Stop Saying We Won 33:04 One Point Slam Idea 34:27 Wrap Up And 100k Push
