Summary
In this episode, Jason and Garth discuss the final episode of Ted Lasso and reflect on the series as a whole. They talk about the callbacks in the episode, such as Ted's knowledge of offside and his on-field celebration, and how they symbolize his growth as a leader. They also discuss the emotional moments in the episode, like the players pulling out the tattered believe sign and Jamie using the book Ted gave him.
