Chad Powers is Hulu’s new sports comedy, born from Eli Manning’s 2022 walk-on prank at Penn State. Glen Powell stars as Russ Holliday, a disgraced former quarterback who fakes the new identity “Chad Powers” to earn a second shot at his dream career.

In the pod, we cover the double-episode premiere (“1st Quarter” and “2nd Quarter”), how the show launched, we break down favorite and least favorite moments. We compare it to everything from Stick to Younger, Ted Lasso to The Replacements, and wonder what Loki creator Michael Waldron is doing behind the scenes. Welcome to Today’s Episode!
