The Movement You Need is a sweet one man show by Brendan Hunt (Co-creator, writer, and actor of Ted Lasso) about growing up in Chicago and The Beatles. Here are the top 5 stories from the show:

When he was very young, he couldn’t say his name and would say “Na Na”. His mother called him “Na Na” for her entire life.  When he first heard songs with “Na Na” in them, he thought they were about him. 

He worked at Boom Chicago in Amsterdam for five years. This is where he learned to love soccer. 

When he was in London writing for Ted Lasso, Jason Sudekis kept texting someone while they were trying to work. This eventually led to him getting to see Paul McCartney rehearsing and then meeting him afterwards. 

He won a pair of tickets through a radio station to see Paul McCartney play in a 300-person capacity bar in Joshua Tree. It was a three-hour show that was the smallest show he had played since the early 1960s when The Beatles were playing in Hamburg. 

“The movement you need is on your shoulder” is a lyric from “Hey Jude”. He has The movement you need tattoed on his shoulder.
