The Incomparable Superfeed

Put on your shin guards and get out on the pitch, because we’re tackling the return of “Ted Lasso” for a fourth season after it seemingly ended with season 3! What did we think of the new story arcs? Was the villain obvious and did it matter? Is Roy Kent the Fonzie of “Ted Lasso?” Follow the money.

"Ted Lasso" season 4

Host Jason Snell with Chip Sudderth, Erika Ensign, Kathy Campbell, Moisés Chiullán, Casey Liss, and Brian Warren.

In 1932, Joan Crawford made Letty Lynton, a film that represented a milestone in her career. But it’s barely been seen since the 1930s. That’s because of a thorny legal dispute over a story that the movie’s only partially based on. Thanks to one of her grandsons and the Warner Archive, Letty is now available to view on disc or steaming. We’ll tell you the story of its long journey back to the screen, and all about “that dress”.

Letty Lynton

Host Shelly Brisbin with Micheline Maynard, Nathan Alderman, and Randy Dotinga.

What do you do while you’re waiting? If you’ve been waiting for another episode of Sorkin’ In It, good news, because Lex and Brian are here for you. The Panthers have a bye week, but that just gives everybody time to do other things, like sue the coach, or work through family issues, or just be moody. We hope you’re in a good mood, though, and can’t wait to Sorkin’ In It with you.

Hosts Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Aleen Simms, writer and podcaster, joins Scott to discuss “Brothers” (TNG S4E3).
