DUPR: The Metric, the Mirror, and the Man Behind It All, with Tito Machado
Descripción del Episodio
This spring, DUPR hit pause on your history and asked a simple question: Who are you right now, without all that baggage?
Turns out that's a harder question than it sounds.
We know because Casie did the Reset, knew it didn't count, watched her number drop, and still had to talk herself off the ledge on the way home. So we brought Tito Machado, CEO of DUPR and the man who's spent years trying to convince the pickleball community that a number is just a number, back to Dinks on Tap for a second time, fresh off a DUPR Reset period that generated more player data than anyone anticipated.
We get into what the Reset actually was, what it wasn't, and why so many people signed up hoping it was a cheat code, plus:
-
Why "DUPR Reset" was never meant to be a path to a higher pickleball rating, and why everyone heard it that way anyway
-
The myth that playing up is the fastest way to move your number (the algorithm disagrees)
-
How DUPR accidentally became a social gatekeeper, and why Tito says that's their fault
-
Career High, Age Ratings, and DUPR Impact: the new metrics, who loves them, and who's already mad about them
-
Why DUPR forecast might be the perfect gambling tool (Tito's words, not ours)
-
The AI + camera integration coming that could finally account for what everyone knows matters most: chemistry
-
And why, when asked what the Forecast would look like if Tito's team played Casie and Lauren, he bet against himself
Pour something cold and press play, this one's for anyone who's ever refreshed their DUPR after a loss and told themselves it doesn't matter.
Cheers,
Casie and Lauren

Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
By shows
In "Hardcore History" journalist and broadcaster Dan Carlin takes his "Martian", unorthodox way of thinking and applies it to the past. Was Alexander the Great as bad a person as Adolf Hitler? What would Apaches with modern weapons be like? Will our modern civilization ever fall like civilizations from past eras? This isn't academic history (and Carlin isn't a historian) but the podcast's unique blend of high drama, masterful narration and Twilight Zone-style twists has entertained millions of listeners.
