Is this Richmond AFC’s year? Can Jamie Tartt, Sam Obisanya, and Dani Rojas provide the leadership to take Coach Ted Lasso’s club to a championship level? Today’s SportsBeat KC podcast goes inside Richmond AFC’s quest to climb the ranks in the English Premier League.
Or nothing like that.
But today’s show is about Ted Lasso, the show that begins its third season on Apple TV+ and has enjoyed more success than the team with seven Emmys, including two for best comedy series. Star coumnists Vahe Gregorian and Sam McDowell discuss the show, and after a break, Ted Lasso himself, Jason Sudeikis, spent time with Gregorian on a zoom call.
They chatted about the show’s international popularity, sports and soccer as a vehicle for Ted Lasso’s message of hope and kindness. As fans of the show know, “Believe,” is a recurring theme.
