What Was 'Succession' Really About? And Is 'Ted Lasso' Over or Not?

This week, Today, Explained co-host Sean Rameswaram keeps our host chair warm while Sam is away. He's joined by Vulture TV critic Kathryn VanArendonk to figure out what kind of show Succession really was, whom it was for, and what to watch to fill the Succession-size hole in your heart. We also ask if Kathryn is into Ted Lasso ending, the return of the flip phone, and more.

And we hear about the culture that's haunting us: Lana Del Rey losing her vape is as relatable as writing lyrics about soda.
