We’ve made it to 100 fam!  We appreciate all of your support and listenership since we began this crazy venture, and hope to continue giving you the real on the sport we love for 100+ more episodes!  Thank you for coming with us!

In appropriate fashion, we are celebrating our milestone by celebrating a legend, pioneer, and queen in our sport, Ms. Althea Gibson.  The film “Althea” (currently available on Amazon Prime) is a wonderful look at Ms. Gibson’s life, and reveals personal triumphs and tragedies that have been rarely revealed to the general public.  It’s a beautiful, moving film that honestly had the Bruthas in tears by the end.  It’s a must-watch for any tennis fan.

On this episode, the Bruthas speak with three men who were involved with the film:  Mr. Art Carrington, African-American tennis historian and legend, Mr. George Henry, Director of Tennis Operations at Bethune Cookman College, and Mr. Glenn Gilliam, Director of Strategic Partnerships for “Althea.”  So sit back, relax, and be enlightened on this regal figure in our sport; the incomparable, the revered, Ms. Althea Gibson.  (Also, be sure to check out the film!)
