🚨 Tie Break Episode Out Now! 🚨

Our own Nick Bianchi & Jennifer Dooley are back with their regular weekly magazine-style show, chatting all things Padel. 🎾

In this episode, Jen shares the exciting news of a collaboration Padel Stories 🎙️ have done with Studio 34 Pilates, as she, Georgia, and Carrie prepare to host a Ladies Padel & Pilates Trip in April 2026, coinciding perfectly with the launch of their brand-new Marbella studio 🇪🇸.

They dive into all things Padel #merch & apparel; from established brands doing it right, to new arrivals coming in 2026, including Padelle “It’s Our Time”, a fresh brand focused on ladies over 40. Nick caught up with founder Hannah West and friends Katy Eccles & also Paul Madeira who kindly connected us.

We recently played with good friends of the pod; Darryl Allen, KC Mark Taylor, Nick Williams, James Lindemann, John Birtwistle, Clive Young & Victoria Russell, to name but a few… 🤝

And finally… a HUGE shout-out to William Östling, who has created two fantastic Padel Postcards 🌍 from his family trip to Koh Samui.

The weekly “Postcards From” feature has become a much-loved part of our Padel Stories Podcast Instagram page, with amazing contributions from friends and listeners across the world 🌍; from Kuala Lumpur to Marrakesh, the South of France to Marbella, Malta to Copenhagen… and who could forget the very first postcard by Sam Lilley in Reykjavik 🇮🇸 at Iceland’s only padel venue, Padel Social Iceland!!

(26 postcards to date)

Thank you to everyone who’s shared.
