We get into Nate's scary-similar path to Jose Mourinho, talk "Yankee and the Brave" and Run The Jewels 4, dispel some rumors about Jason Sudeikis and Ed Helms, pour one out for Richmond's old (fictional) kit sponsor, and admire Kathy Sudeikis' old-school business acumen.

WE'RE BACK ON THE DOGTRACK, GREYHOUNDS! In this episode Marisa, Christian, and Brett have a conversation about Season 2, Episode 9: Beard After Hours.As we make our way through this absurd episode of Ted Lasso, we talk about the major differences in tone, style, and aesthetic between this offering and every other installment of this incredible show.Our discussion brought up a few interesting questions, like: what (if anything) do creators owe fans of their work (if anything), and how charitable should fans be when presented with art that contrasts from a creator's usual offering? The three of us each had different reactions to this admittedly divisive episode, but our conversation helped us to mine a few luminous gems from the general darkness of the late-night Beard saga.We also took some time to examine what we learned about the character of Beard in this episode–particularly when it comes to his relationship with Jane and the things in his life which bring him meaning.There was also a record-amount of music used in this episode, and we know it goes without saying, but we definitely took some time to discuss a bunch of the needle drops as well.Full show notes and transcript will available at https://www.tedlassopod.com/ted-lasso-episode-02-09-beard-after-hoursRichmond Til We Die is a conversation about the Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso, where we explore the characters, their relationships to each other, and how they're able to make us laugh until we can hardly breathe one moment and then feel with the deepest parts of our hearts the next.

And that's exactly what the show's sound team had to do when the pandemic hit just two episodes in.From creating crowds of thousands using just a few voices, to recording actors in their own closets, they managed to turn lockdown into an opportunity for innovation. Featuring Ted Lasso's Supervising Sound Editor Brent Findley and Dialog Editor Bernard Weiser."Episode transcript, music, and credits can be found here: https://www.20k.org/episodes/tedlassosdarkforestRichmond Til We Die is an episode-by-episode conversation about the Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso, where we explore the characters, their relationships to each other, and how they're able to make us laugh until we can hardly breathe one moment and then feel with the deepest parts of our hearts the next.
