Bend It Like Beckham (w/ E.R. Fightmaster, Katie Kershaw, & Tien Tran)

Lauren and Nicole hop over the pond with very special guests E.R. Fightmaster, Katie Kershaw, & Tien Tran (Jockular (podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jockular/id17327…)) to get into all things women’s football with the early aughts film Bend It Like Beckham. Also discussed is the icon and living legend Ilona Maher, the beyond obvious queer storyline that refuses to come to fruition, and the movie trope of an injured man becoming the coach for a women’s team.
