The first trailer for Tom Brady’s new television project with Michael Strahan hit the web this week.

The football stars are teaming up as executive producers for Religion of Sports, a six-part documentary series that will examine the cultural and spiritual impact of sports on fans around the world. Filmmaker Gotham Chopra, son of Deepak Chopra, will also serves as an executive producer for the show, which debuts next month on DirecTV’s Audience network.

“I can think of no better vehicle than Religion of Sports to share some of what I’ve learned and dig a little deeper into that feeling, the sort of spiritual experience that sports creates for players fans alike,” Brady told the Hollywood Reporter in August.

The series’ first teaser offers a sneak peek at a few of the sports that will be featured on the show, including soccer, bull riding, eSports, and mixed martial arts.

It’s no coincidence that Ultimate Fighting Championship contender Cat Zingano makes an appearance in the trailer, as Brady got a chance to watch her fight at UFC 200 in Las Vegas over the summer. The Patriots quarterback also recently became an investor in the MMA promotion.

‘Religion of Sports’ premieres on Wednesday, November 15, at 8 p.m.
