And we are back!  With Season 3 scheduled for later this summer, we thought we should catch up on Season 2.  So here’s our take on S2E1:  “Goodbye Earl”.  After the death of a beloved mascot, Danny now believes that “Football is Death”.   Nate isn’t the best new manager, Roy struggles with life off the pitch, Rebecca wonders about her new boyfriend, and Ted can’t quite handle the sports psychologist that they have brought in to help Danny.  Cathy and Mike discuss the challenges of cross-cultural communication; starting out as a new manager; coaching vs. therapy; and the importance of vulnerability in your personal life–and even at work.   Discussed in this pod: Brene Brown’s Ted talks and her book Dare to Lead Radiohead’s Karma Police Aime Mann’s Wise Up Squeeze’s  Goodbye Girl
