What was your fav part? Thanks everyone for watching. As always, discounts in the video description. S/O to Vuori 🙌 vuori.com/buildingpickleball This is the last pro player interview from the JOOLA media event in March.

when was this interview done?

3.18

[@michaelhagerman1074]

You are bringing a top notch level of journalism to pickleball. I love your interviews keep it up, you're doing something special on this channel

[@DannyBPlays]

This interview felt awkward, the questions seem like the same thing everyone asks everyone, and the body position of sitting away from each other gives the impression that neither of you really care(whether it's true or not)

[@Mr.Martini549]

Anna is truly one of the genuine personalities in pro pickleball. Always willing to share what’s on her mind with her knowledgeable insight, but knows how to keep it loose and always funny. I would love to see her transition into a coach/instructor running clinics like Sarah Ansboury and Simone have done. She is very well suited for that line of work.

[@markfcal]

Thanks. Always fun hearing from Anna. It’s good for her fans that she plays in almost every PPA and MLP tournament. I’m glad she’s mindful to protect against burnout.

[@buildingpickleball]

Thanks for watching and the comment. Yeah she’s fun and great to hear the side of burnout from her.

Lmao. U put the guest in the sun during the interview while yr in the shade. Lmao!!!

[@BenjaminAndersonPickleball]

Another good interview. I always look forward to your videos.

[@buildingpickleball]

Well thank you man. I appreciate that you watch them and take the time to leave a comment. That was the last of the pro interviews from the Joola event. I have 2 more coming from 2 content creators that we knocked out while we were together in town for the event. Then I’ll be working on some newer stuff.

[@BenjaminAndersonPickleball]

@@buildingpickleball I'm looking forward to it!

[@Guy_Washburn]

Anna is an awesome player who is really changing the game! But the video misses on the more topical issue of the delisting of the Gen3 paddles and how the sponsored pros react...

[@49pickles]

Let’s go!

[@JflipJedi]

When was this interview done? She’s talking about using the gen 3 paddles and James’s shoulder injury.. James has been back for a while and you can’t even use the gen 3s anymore!

[@buildingpickleball]

The interview took place in March. Under NDA contractual obligations, couldn’t release it until April, but got delayed due to some other project reasons.

[@ThatPickleballTrainer-]

Besties ❤

[@buildingpickleball]

😂🙌

[@MokeTheoryy]

Anna is so cute and funny. All round cool person.

[@attybong]

too bad, gen3s were banned in uspa sanctioned matches 😢

[@shipwreck8847]

She still has PTSD nightmares of Pickleball Will

[@mggilbert425]

Man, really wanted to watch / listen to this, but 5 minutes I'm and the background noise, kids in background, slumped bodies, harsh lighting are making it super tough. Maybe I'll try later, maybe not

[@rvpickleballguy]

Love your videos. The paddle thing didn’t age well though 😬

[@buildingpickleball]

No it did not 😬 (thank you for watching btw)

[@jasoncade3945]

bro... cropping just takes a sec

[@krazieecko]

I see Anna Bright. I click to watch video. Immediately disappointed in video and sound quality. SMH

[@panamaslim595]

She’s a crybaby on the court

[@Mr.Martini549]

Total bs.
