The Joy and Trauma of Sports With Paul Scheer
Listen now
Description
Comedian Paul Scheer is known for his roles in The League and Fresh Off the Boat, his long-running podcast on bad movies called How Did This Get Made?, and being a die-hard Clippers fan. But in recent years, he’s also been swept up into the LA soccer scene, going to LAFC and Angel City FC matches.  On this week’s episode, Paul and Taylor talk about the Messi Mania they experienced at LA Galaxy’s home opener, the need for a Bad News Bears–style soccer movie, and why Paul’s new book, Joyful Recollections of Trauma (out May 21), is the perfect title for a Clippers fan.  Offside With Taylor Twellman is a Major League Soccer podcast, produced by Apple TV and Rain Delay Media.
