Trusting Ted Lasso to Stick the Landing (with Alex McDaniel)
Welcome to the Crown & Anchor, Greyhounds! In this episode Christian and Brett have a conversation with sports journalist Alex McDaniel about their shared trust in the show's creators to end the series well.
Alex is the Managing Editor at USA Today’s For The Win - a social news hub that focuses on sports and entertainment. Of course, Alex is also a huge, huge fan of Ted Lasso, too. She’s written about Ted Lasso at For The Win, and had the opportunity to interview principal cast members for the site.
Alex co-hosts Ted Lasso-centered episodes for the Big Screen Sports podcast. She also happens to be one of our favorite Twitter follows, and as such is the primary reason we have a working knowledge of news emanating from the University of Mississippi athletic department.
We chatted with Alex about our shared love for the show, which led to some fun side conversations about Alex's Ted Lasso-themed Animal Crossing Island, her involvement in a formal press junket with the stars of the show, and how she's trusting the Ted Lasso team to land the plane as season three draws to a close.
Finally, let this serve as your official spoiler alert, as there is some light discussion of Ted Lasso plot points up through the fifth episode of season 3.

Richmond Til We Die is an episode-by-episode conversation about the Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso, where we explore the characters, their relationships to each other, and how they're able to make us laugh until we can hardly breathe one moment and then feel with the deepest parts of our hearts the next. When you're here, you're a greyhound.
