Maximilian Osinski • Zava on Ted Lasso

Richmond Til We Die: A Ted Lasso Podcast

Welcome to the Crown & Anchor, Greyhounds! In this episode Marisa, Christian, and Brett have a conversation with the man behind the myth behind the Zava – Maximilian Osinski!
We chatted with Max about how he came to be involved with Ted Lasso and asked him questions about Zava's persona, his wardrobe, and how Max was able to embody such a mysterious and enigmatic character. We also discussed the similarities between Zava and other iconic footballers like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Ronaldo, and Eric Cantona.
For you Marvel fans, we also got into a bit of Max's experience playing Agent Davis in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. And, as an added bonus, we heard the story of Max's Polish folk-dancing performance for Pope John Paul II when he was a teenager. Trust us, this is one y'all don't want to miss!
For those of you who aren't caught up on season 3 of Ted Lasso - this is your official spoiler alert, as there are some light spoilers (about episodes that have already aired) contained within this episode.
