32 years ago, eight-time Grand Slam champion Monica Seles was stabbed during a tennis match and the 19-year-old's life was never the same. For this archive episode, Joe was joined by Jon Wertheim of Sports Illustrated to reflect on the shocking moment, what it meant for Seles' career and that whole era of tennis. The jumping off point for the chat was the uncomfortable parallels between Seles' situation and the recent incident involving Emma Raducanu and a fan in Dubai who exhibited 'fixated behaviour', with the English star previously the victim of a stalking incident in 2022.

Will is joined by Ian Madigan to reflect on a busy weekend of festive rugby. Leinster gained revenge on Munster at Thomond Park and while their defensive showing was impressive, Ian thinks their passing accuracy still leaves a lot to be desired. Ulster's improvements, Stuart Lancaster's rebuild in Connacht and Tadhg Beirne's strong comments about the direction rugby is going in are all on the menu.
