Brett Goldstein on 'Ted Lasso' Season 2, Zombie Roy Kent, and an Irrational Fear Inspired By 'Rookie of the Year'

He’s here, he’s there, he’s our guest on the podcast this week: Brett Goldstein, aka Roy Kent on Apple TV+‘s “Ted Lasso.” Brett walks Libby, Ben, and Leo through Roy Kent’s journey from script to screen in Season 2, from the Zoom writers’ room to a version of Roy searching for purpose in a world without football/soccer. Additionally, we make Brett pick his desert island television series. Plus, Ben and Libby geek out over HBO’s fall programming announcement, then argue about the Drama Emmy races, before Leo joins in to tackle the backlash that has arrived for “Ted Lasso” in the wake of its immense success.
