In an October 2022 interview about the documentary, Chi told Nextshark:

Jeremy’s actual story is like “Bend it Like Beckham” on steroids. It’s those kinds of stories that once you have the opportunity to actually tell them, they mean so much to folks because it is something that we’ve always aspired to. We want somebody who shattered that ceiling.

Meanwhile, NBC’s coverage of the XXIV Olympic Winter Games and the NFL series “NFL 360” lead the nominee list with 10 nominations each.
