Description

What's harder: winning at pickleball or figuring out why a paddle costs $250? πŸ“ In this episode of TexTenn, Keith and Clay dive into their latest matches, from Blair's never-ending battle to keep the ball in bounds to the discovery that pickleball gear might be more expensive than their first cars. And yes, they still can't agree if it's the paddle or the player that's the real problem.

The conversation bounces from court to court as Keith debates whether playing in the coaches' basketball game is a bold challenge or a guaranteed gas-out. πŸ€ Clay makes the case for indoor sports in South Texas' sweltering heat, while both swap stories about kids' sports, running stats, and the undeniable truth that your partner always runs more when you're the weak link.

Things take a political turn as they discuss the curious case of former Corpus Christi Mayor Dan McQueen, his 37-day stint in office, his self-published book, and his potential run against Michael Cloud. πŸ—³ Naturally, this spirals into imagining what a Clay Blair campaign would look like… and whether it would be more comedy show than campaign trail.

From overpriced paddles to political punchlines, this episode serves up TexTenn's signature mix of friendly jabs, local color, and unexpected detours you'll be laughing about long after the final point. πŸŽ™πŸ”₯
