Pickleball: Fad or Here to Stay?

It sounds like a joke. Pickleball. A sport that feels like it should involve a jar, a fork, and maybe a questionable sandwich. And yet—your parents play it, your neighbors won’t leave the court, and somehow your doctor is really into it too.

In this episode, Kat and William have a little fun poking at pickleball’s vibes-only reputation before digging into a very real question: is pickleball just a passing fad, or is it reshaping American recreation for good?

From its accidental invention by bored kids and inventive parents, to retirement communities, park takeovers, pro leagues, celebrity investors, and ESPN coverage, we explore how a funny-named game became the fastest-growing sport in the country. Along the way, we break down how it’s played, why it’s so addictive, and why it’s one of the rare sports where grandparents can genuinely outplay their grandkids.

Love it or roll your eyes at it—pickleball isn’t going away quietly. And after this episode, you’ll finally understand why.
