    • Ep. 56 - Dream Big - Ted Lasso S.2 E.11

      This week we check-in about long-distance relationships. They're difficult, complicated, and delightful. Sorta. In a real turn of topics, we also discuss the recent NCAA Women's Basketball Championship (Congrats LSU!). Don't worry, true to form, we also managed to tie in identity to that discussion.

      Later in the episode, we chat about Ted Lasso S2E11 - Midnight Train to Royston. This episode hinges on what it means to dream big and go for it. Also, Nate is being a real dick.

        This episode begins with a quick chat about Love is Blind Season 4 (which recently came out on Netflix). Light spoilers. From there, we explore Ted Lasso Season 2 - Episodes 9 & 10. We chat briefly about Coach Beard's journey through Ep. 9 (it's a strange one) - and things we learned about him. From there, we're on to No Weddings & a Funeral - an episode that brings about some big & painful revelations from both Rebecca & Ted. We are reminded throughout this episode of what Dr. Sharon said in a previous episode: "The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off."

        TW: There are tough topics discussed in this episode - & we will discuss infidelity & suicide - as these topics relate to the characters' experiences.

            This episode we have a good chat about the Oscars & creativity during our check in, and then, in our discussion of Ted Lasso S.2 E.7, we consider how the characters of the show wish to feel seen, see one another, and need space. We talk about how these desires are normal in our relationships, and highlight how various characters communicate about them - with a focus on Ted & Dr. Sharon, Rebecca & Sam, Roy & Keeley, and Nate.

                In this episode, we chat about the seasons of one's life when it feels as if you are walking through the dark forest - until you find your way to the lighted path - out of the forest. We explore Ted Lasso, Season 2, Ep. 5 - through the lens of Ted's term: "Rom-Communism" in which he theorizes that we need to trust the journey, because ultimately everything will be okay. This episode might be a great one for you if you're feeling like you're in a dark forest in your life, too, and if you want to be reminded to trust the journey. Enjoy!

                • Ep. 50 - Families We Create & Ted Lasso S2, Ep4

                  Well this episode’s check-in is bound to be one that may end up with one of us (Marsha) probably having to apologize to someone. We talk being childfree by choice and not by choice, the narratives society has around motherhood, and the weird competition around stress and exhaustion. Did we plan for the first twenty minutes to be us discussing expanding (and not expanding) families, only to then be exploring an episode dedicated to cultivating families? We did not. But hey, everything goes our way!

                  Later in the ep, we talk all about Ted Lasso Season 2, Ep. 4 “Carol of the Bells”. It’s Christmas in February!!

                    This week, we're examining the communication & relational dynamics in Ted Lasso Season 2, Ep. 3.

                    In this episode, we look at a few different characters and how they're trying to find their roles - with a focus on Rebecca, Sam, Jamie, & (of course)  Ted. As we explore the story lines of these characters in this episode, we study how they're each trying to find their role. 

                    We discuss spending time with children (when you're not used to doing so), leadership & power dynamics (power-with / power-over), nonviolent action, how it's difficult to be accepted into a team, and different styles of motivation (some better than others). 

                    Enjoy!
