What was your favorite moment of the episode? Thanks again to the sponsors of this video, BNB Pickleball and Vuori. BNB code: BP Vuori: vuori.com/buildingpickleball
Definitely, the EXCITED GASP was my favorite moment!!
Great interview, especially the FOOD part at the end! PB and food go great together! 😊
Really appreciate the feedback. I know it was a little diff and short given the circumstances but yeah, I was pleasantly surprised about the foodie part. Turns out quite a bit of players are foodies as well: JW, Augie.
Nice intereview but the 2nd ad after 3 mins of content was jarring
Appreciate the feedback. I’ll look into how I can change that.
Love the quote at the end, and great content as always!
Thanks for the feedback and thank you for watching 🙌
Great interview! Thx for the Vuori plug as well. Got me and the wife some good stuff!
Absolutely, thanks for watching. Glad the Vuori plug was helpful! Thanks for supporting the channel
Another great interview as always Brian. Ben's super humble. He can fall back on being a food critc after pickleball.
yeah he really is. I know he's done things to be criticized in the past but I've enjoyed getting to know him a bit more each time I've gotten to interact with him.
@@buildingpickleball Watching Lea on The Dink now. For sure NOT a Ben interview.
There's Banh Mi Saigon in LA too. Really dang good.
Great interviewer. Good questions, no interruptions..
that initial discussion is even more relevant today. It's probably a pattern they need to look at more now, lol
right. super interesting that it became a pattern now because now I'm curious to see how they address it.
Dude, I love thai fresh! It's right by my wife's uncle's place!
So good. The cracklings 😮💨🤌
Whoa I’m never this early… 😅 I promise.
Haha first!
Good stuff! Thanks for bringing these kinds of interviews with the pros. Some feedback: seems kind of odd that you’re holding your computer like that in an interview, just looks a bit unprofessional. Also not digging the sudden and frequent ads. Like others have said, it’s jarring and honestly kind of annoying. I’d be more open to buying the stuff if they were introduced in a more natural way or all grouped together. Just my 2 cents-keep up the good work!
Appreciate the feedback 🙌
your volume is too low can't even here the conversation.
🔥🤘🏻🫡
When asked about his recent loss to Tardio/Daescu, Ben stated how good Daescu has been playing but was conspicuously silent about Tardio, who body bagged him and destroyed him and Colin on most hand battles. Coping..
#1 player in the world by what measure?
By several metrics. Number of championships. DUPR rating. The question is, how is he not the #1 player?
Waste of time, first 40% of video is commercials and video games discussion.
kinda boring interview. sorry.
Like Ben’s games, perfect but a little boring.
Just some constructive criticism. Look back on this interview and count how many times you use the word “like” when it is just a filler word. You want to sound more professional? Drop the habit of using “like”.
Totally, appreciate the feedback
You are a bad interviewer bro, you can tell he is uncomfortable talking to you
What do you think it was?
@@buildingpickleballdon’t even humor bad faith comments like that 💪
you’re a bad commenter, i feel uncomfortable with your comment
That’s a Ben issue, not Brian. Ben’s awkward af
