Full Episode
On today's episode of That Was Us, we will be discussing Season 2, Episode 14, Super Bowl Sunday. On the 20th anniversary of Jack's death, Randall hosts a Super Bowl party. Kevin, Kate, and Rebecca share their memories of this day and how they've been coping since.
Hello, friends.
What's going on? How's everybody doing today? Well, how are you?
We have a special guest.
We have a special guest, everybody. You guys know Mandy, Chris, myself, Sterling, but do you know the man who created the show? Mr. Dan Fogelman, everyone.
Everybody stop. He's back. I can't believe you guys have a live audience now. This is amazing.
We've grown up so much since you were last on. So, full disclosure, we were going to try to do this episode a few times before. We thought about doing it with just ourselves. And then we said, man, we had to hold on to this secret for such a long time and tease it out. Do you know how Jack passed away? Yes, we know how Jack passed away. People had all these sorts of theories about it.
It didn't feel right to not do it without the man who built up to this moment. So, Fogman, thanks for joining us once again. We appreciate having You okay? You look good. Thanks. He's got his paradise hat on. I just realized. I appreciate that. I'm coming from work, so I didn't even know. Cross promotion.
It's all paradise hats. Can we get paradise hats?
