Show notes

Gather up the Diamond Dogs—this week we’re talking about Ted Lasso, season 3! For the final installment of Captive Audience month, we turn our attention to a show we’ve covered in the past, subbing back in for one last round of Biscuits with the Boss. We dedicate the whole episode to season 3, covering all of the storylines, match results, and trips to Amsterdam that go into this season. And of course we highlight all of the baklava, Office references, and Piggy Stardusts that go into it. And in true Captive Audience spirit, we give our theater thoughts, Dundies, and ratings.

We hope you’ll check it out, our hopes are as high as a giraffe’s top hat!
