It’s a homecoming for “Ted Lasso’s” Mr. Worf, Roy Kent, as he returns to Chelsea and is greeted unexpectedly. And wait, who’s going to sign international superstar Zava? It’s enough to make Coach Beard scream.

“Ted Lasso” is back, and so is our casual weekly review podcast with a rotating set of hosts and panelists. This week we try to get into the swing of things, but how quickly can we adapt to returning to Ted’s world? How do we feel about the various storylines seemingly on tap for this season? Is Rupert really Emperor Palpatine to Nate’s Darth Vader? Is the bus driver secretly the hero of the show? And when will the inevitable Lego AFC Richmond stadium set be announced?

Jason Snell with Shannon Sudderth and James Thomson

We wrap up our coverage of the second season of “Ted Lasso” by discussing the season as a whole, from the first penalty kick to the last.

It’s the big finale of season two. On the field, Richmond tries to return to the Premier League. Off the field, things are falling apart. Sam, Keeley, Nate, and Trent Crimm make big moves. Higgins plays with puppies. Roy visits the Diamond Dogs. Jamie shows growth. Dani seeks redemption. Jan Maas speaks the truth. And Ted cites the work of a triple wizard. Onward to season three—after we spend the length of a football match breaking this one down.

Things are moving toward the season finale, and it doesn’t look good. Doc Sharon departs and exchanges final goodbyes with Ted. Roy and Keeley deal with her success and with questions about their relationship. Rebecca is presented with an offer she can’t refuse, but can Sam refuse it? It’s always darkest before the dawn, right Ted? Right?!

We’re no strangers to love. You know the rules, and so do we: Keep your voices down in the church! Our panel discusses funerals, fathers, dress shoes, and Rick Astley.

We take a break from the usual Ted Lasso formula to follow Coach Beard on a wild night of adventures, that might have happened…or not?

The FA cup semifinal. A bike accident. Dating apps. Fathers and children. It all comes to a head in this episode of “Ted Lasso.”

Chip Sudderth with Jean MacDonald, David J. Loehr and Tom McGrath

This week we discuss Ted’s reluctance to actually talk about his problems to Doc Sharon, the whole I-Got-You-Babe thing between Roy and Keeley, the mysterious comings and goings of Coach Beard, and most importantly, our frustration with Nate’s bad behavior.

We’ve reached the halfway point of season 2 of “Ted Lasso,” and things are starting to come together in this episode. We discuss themes of change, of integrating positive and negative parts of your personality, and parents and children. Also there’s some utterly unfounded speculation about future “Ted Lasso” spin-offs. Sad little cake, soggy bottom!
