00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: Amy Wells, and we're actually together. We are in the

6
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: Bay together MGM Studio.

7
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:30,479
Speaker 2: It feels good.

8
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: It's good to have you back. You're technically in the

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: Snickers hot seed, but not really because you know I'll

10
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: take it, but you're the co host, so you can't be.

11
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 2: I can't be in the hot seed. I suppose.

12
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess I could be the jars a

13
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 3: little far, but I'll find a time to get a

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: snicker there. You go throughout the program really satisfies, it

15
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 3: really does.

16
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: That's what I've heard. So last week was quite the

17
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: adventure for the Tennessee Titans and the Titans staff and

18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:06,759
Speaker 1: Titan fans for that matter. The week began with the

19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: Titans doing a couple of interviews, and the second one

20
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: was Brian Callahan. Brian Callahan was in in the afternoon

21
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: and in the one of sixty four Brian Callahan interviews

22
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: that has been done since that time, you have probably

23
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: heard the story that he walks in to the head

24
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: coach's office and sits behind the desk to see what

25
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: it's like, and they offer him the job and he's

26
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: very excited and it's really a cool story, but kind

27
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: of leading from there, it got interesting. And that's what

28
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: we want to take you through on this edition of

29
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 1: the OTP, pull back the curtain just a little bit

30
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: and take you through what went next because this lady

31
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: Amy Wells, Ashley Ferrell, a couple other members of our staff,

32
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: Donald Page and Gray made a trip that you're probably

33
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: just now becoming aware of. That added sort of a

34
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: special element, an extra special element, if you will, to

35
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: the Brian Callahan piece. So Monday night, the word gets

36
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: out Brian Callahan is going to be the coach. The

37
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: Titans have offered him the job. He's accepted. Now all

38
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: the things have to happen, settling on a contract. And

39
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 1: that's why the Titans don't release it because while it's

40
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: reported and nobody's denying it, which is always your hint.

41
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: If people start denying it, then it's not true. But

42
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: if the media is reporting it, if several sources are

43
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: reporting it, it's out there. But what you're learning from

44
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: the time in between the report and the time in

45
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 1: between the release. Is there a lot of things that

46
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:53,839
Speaker 1: have to happen.

47
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 2: Right, And that's standard practice.

48
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 3: I mean the Tennessee Titans always operate in that fashion,

49
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 3: and most organism zations operate in that fashion where it

50
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 3: might be out there but until things are signed, sealed and.

51
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: Delivered unless your owner, because he was not.

52
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 2: All teams operate him in this manner.

53
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: He would normally tweet out he likes to be on.

54
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 3: The very very very beginning of breaking news. He likes

55
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 3: to break the news. But a lot of organizations operate

56
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 3: in the manner where it's until the ink is dried

57
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 3: on paper, we are not going to confirm anything because,

58
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: in keeping with the cults theme, they got in a

59
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 3: situation a couple of.

60
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 2: Years ago where Josh McDaniel, yeah.

61
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 3: It was mostly done, but it wasn't completely done, and

62
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 3: then some things got harry on.

63
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: The back end.

64
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 3: So you want to be sure sure, And we do

65
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 3: this in a lot of different ways with player acquisitions,

66
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 3: with a free agency, and there's all kinds of things

67
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 3: where you hear about it, you see it, but it's

68
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 3: not done, done done Because there's so many things that

69
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 3: have to happen.

70
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: Well, and we talk about this on the OTP and

71
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,839
Speaker 1: the ot people know, if you've listened for a long time,

72
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: you understand what we're really discussing here, and that is that, Okay,

73
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: he's got an agent. Brian Callahan has an agent, and

74
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: the agent hasn't said yes yet. So you've got to

75
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: work that out. What are going to be the details.

76
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 1: Here's the other part of it. You got to call home, right,

77
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: You've got to the family. You probably you probably want

78
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: to tell your wife. I accepted the job with the

79
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: Titans in nineteen ninety eight before I had consulted with

80
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: my wife.

81
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 2: You did that.

82
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: It was a huge mistake. Let me just it was

83
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,359
Speaker 1: not bold, it was it was very stupid. It was

84
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: really a dumb move. You really did I've really did that? Whoa,

85
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: I really did that. And the worst part was I

86
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: didn't have a cell phone.

87
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 2: Can't tell her till you get home.

88
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: No, I had to pull off and use a payphone

89
00:04:54,320 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 1: in Crossville. So fortunately Brian Callahan's a lot smarter than me.

90
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: He called home and just made sure that I can't believe.

91
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 2: You did that.

92
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: I know. Yeah.

93
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: So Brian Callahan wins in that regard.

94
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 1: He really did.

95
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 2: He told his wife.

96
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: But you do that, You've got some calls to make.

97
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: You're certainly going to call the Bengals. If you're him,

98
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: you want to call Zach Taylor and let him know

99
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: what's going on so he can put things in place.

100
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: You're going to call I would imagine the Brown family

101
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: who owns the Bengals, and just to let them know

102
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: out of respect. So there are all these boxes that

103
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: have to be ticked off. Well, Amy and Ashley had

104
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: come up with this great plan to do a story,

105
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: and it was to go with the new Titans head

106
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: coach back to where they were from and to do

107
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: kind of the story coming out of where they were

108
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: from as they make the trip to Nashville. Now, it

109
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: worked particularly well because Cincinnati is not that far away.

110
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 2: It's not at all. It's a very easy drive.

111
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: If you had had if the Titans had hired a

112
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: coach from say Seattle, might not have been doable. But

113
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: so Tuesday, you're just waiting on official words so you

114
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: can leave for Cincinnati. Yep, we what time were you

115
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 1: prepared to leave?

116
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,799
Speaker 2: I was ready to leave at nine am on Tuesday.

117
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: I actually got the rental car at seven.

118
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially got the rental car at seven am, so

119
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 2: you're ready. I was ready to go.

120
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 3: They were going to swing by my house and pick

121
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 3: me up on the way out of town. Nine o'clock.

122
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 3: My bag's by the front door. I'm waiting. I'm ready

123
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 3: to go. But there hadn't gotten word yet.

124
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: There's no there's no official announcement.

125
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 2: Attempt, no official announcement.

126
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: Not that there's anything wrong, it's just it.

127
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 3: Hadn't gotten the go yet. We need a green light. Yeah,

128
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 3: that's all we needed. And so we waited, and then

129
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 3: it seemed like, well it might be a little while.

130
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 3: There's still some stuff going on. So I throw my

131
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 3: bag in the trunk, get all of my things. I

132
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 3: just leave from the office. That's fine.

133
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: So you come indoor, you come to Ascension Saint Thomas

134
00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: Sports Park, yep.

135
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: I do, and sit down at my desk.

136
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 3: Don't even really get my computer out for a while

137
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 3: because I think I'm just here for a minute. And

138
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: we wait, and we wait, and we wait and we

139
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 3: wait some more.

140
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: So it's five o'clock and I've had a conversation with Amy.

141
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: I'm actually technically on vacation.

142
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, well not.

143
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: Technically no, you are actually on Vaca on vacation. And

144
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: so I get notifications shortly after five that the Titans

145
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: are going to make the announcement at nine to fifteen

146
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: Central on Wednesday, and I relay this immediately to Amy

147
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: and you are standing where when I called you.

148
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 3: At five eleven PM, I get notification from Mike Keith

149
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 3: as I am putting my hand on the handle of

150
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 3: my car in the parking lot.

151
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: So you're the home, You're the US go home. You're

152
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: in the parking garage. You just figure this and Tom

153
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: we'll try gear.

154
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 2: They're figuring everything out. I am getting ready to go home.

155
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 3: He I got a text message from you, Mike that

156
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 3: said we're a go, and I just turned around and

157
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 3: walked back in the building.

158
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 2: Like, okay, now what do we do?

159
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 3: So at that point we kind of huddled the group together,

160
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 3: had a conversation about what we were going to do,

161
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 3: what the new plan was, what our new timeline was

162
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 3: going to be, and then we left the next morning

163
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 3: and I.

164
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: Went in Charleston, South Carolina and got a rental car.

165
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: You did, and Mike got a rental car and hit the.

166
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: Rom h Well hit the road the next morning as

167
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: did you, guys, you didn't have to leave so early.

168
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 2: No, we didn't.

169
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: So so Brian Callahan and Alison Callahan, his wife, say, yeah,

170
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: we'll do this feature, and the plan is to do

171
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: it at their home.

172
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 4: Yes.

173
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 3: So what we wanted to do was we wanted to

174
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 3: document what is a historic event for any organization, the

175
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 3: higher of a new head coach, and we wanted to

176
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 3: do the best that we could to introduce this person

177
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 3: in a very different way. You don't usually have the

178
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 3: opportunity to see a head coach outside of the facility.

179
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 2: Sure, it's just in general.

180
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 3: You get to know them over the years, you get

181
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 3: to know their personalities, that kind of thing, but you

182
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 3: don't get to see.

183
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 2: Much of their lives outside of football.

184
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 3: And so we wanted to start off right from the jump,

185
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,599
Speaker 3: really get to know this person and get to know

186
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 3: this personal away where they're really comfortable, and that's around

187
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: their family, in their home. That felt like the best

188
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 3: way to get to know him. That felt like a

189
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 3: good way to kind of get things started off. And

190
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 3: he was gracious enough to allow us to do that.

191
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 1: All right, So you get in the van, you drive

192
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,599
Speaker 1: from Nashville to Cincinnati. Does he actually live in Cincinnati.

193
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: He lives in Cincinnati, Yes.

194
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: So not like Florence, Kentucky or where he's in.

195
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 3: No, he lives about five minutes from the Bengals stadium.

196
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: Okay, so you drive up to his he answers the door,

197
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: Brian Callahan answers the door.

198
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 2: He answers the door.

199
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 3: We walk up to his. How there's four of us,

200
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 3: So we troop up the front stack.

201
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: Now he knows.

202
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 2: That we're coming.

203
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 3: I had text with him back and forth, but I've

204
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 3: never met this person.

205
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 2: Sure, and.

206
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 3: We get to the front door, and what strikes me,

207
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 3: which is so strange because he's in his own house.

208
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 3: But my first thought was he's not wearing any shoes.

209
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 3: I've never seen a head coach not wearing shoes before.

210
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 3: But I mean, he's at home. A lot of people

211
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 3: don't wear shoes in their own house. But it just

212
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 3: felt in that moment, I realized, like, oh, we're actually

213
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 3: gonna pull this off. This is going to be a casual,

214
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 3: comfortable thing. He's not even wearing shoes. I don't know

215
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 3: why that's a thing that's stuck in my head, but

216
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 3: it felt very intimate somehow, you know, it felt very personal.

217
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 3: You don't see very many people without I've never seen

218
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: you without shoes on, Like it's just a way you

219
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 3: don't see people outside of work.

220
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: I guess that's true.

221
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's for whatever reason.

222
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 3: It just oh he is in his house. He's even

223
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 3: wearing shoes, so that struck me. He was very kind,

224
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 3: greeted everybody, invited us in. You know what the first

225
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 3: thing he did was, no, he offered us sandwiches.

226
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: What kind of sandwiches? I don't know.

227
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 2: I never had a sandwich.

228
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: You didn't accept a sandwich from the new head coach.

229
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: You know.

230
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 3: It was one of those things where it was like,

231
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 3: you know, we're good, right now, let's get our stuff down,

232
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 3: unload the car and everything. And then I never circled

233
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 3: back to the sandwiches.

234
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: But you didn't want a sandwich, not at that moment.

235
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: I mean, don't you think there's stuff I'm not thinking

236
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: back about it, and I think the ot people might agree.

237
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: I think it's rude that you didn't accept a sandwich.

238
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 3: You know, honestly, when I left, I was thinking that

239
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 3: because if I had food and beverages for people who

240
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 3: were coming into my home and no one accepted them,

241
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 3: and then I had just like four sandwiches sitting in

242
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 3: my house. I'd be annoyed. So Coach Callahan, I apologized,

243
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 3: I didn't take a sandwich.

244
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 2: I'll take one now.

245
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 3: But it was another one of those gestures that was

246
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 3: just welcome to my home, can we feed you?

247
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: That is so nice?

248
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 3: It was very nice. It was incredibly hospitable. He's going

249
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 3: to fit right in in the South. I mean it

250
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 3: was the most Southern gesture to offer someone a sandwich.

251
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 3: But really it was just another moment where I was like, oh,

252
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 3: this is this is really like how he is as

253
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 3: a person in his home.

254
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 2: He offers you food and drink.

255
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: So Alison is his wife. Yes, she's originally from New Jersey.

256
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: She is she lived in Denver. Yeah. What was she like?

257
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 2: She's delightful.

258
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 3: They have two young kids, and so she is a

259
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 3: mom who is keeping up with two young kids and

260
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 3: is so excited for her husband and was just the

261
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 3: most delightful person. She was incredibly accommodating of the things

262
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 3: that we need. I mean we basically walked into their

263
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 3: home and were like, can we rearrange some of this furniture, Like,

264
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 3: because you're trying to get.

265
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: A shock, So what room were you in?

266
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: We were in the living room, living room.

267
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 1: How would you say the house is decorated beautifully? Okay, well,

268
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: I mean I mean yeah, I would think you could

269
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: say that, But you have a style.

270
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 2: I don't know the words, like a moderate. I don't

271
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: watch it as you do. It was nice. The couch

272
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 2: was white.

273
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: It was nice. I don't that's gutsy to have a

274
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 1: white couch with kids, especially with a six year old boy.

275
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, as someone who just unloaded a white couch because kids,

276
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 3: I mean proud of them.

277
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, like that's incredible, strong place.

278
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is a strong play.

279
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 3: They're really good parents if they can keep a couch

280
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 3: that look nice like that. But I mean really they

281
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 3: were super hospitable. Come in, What can we do? How

282
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 3: do we make this shot work? Can I move this

283
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 3: plant across the room for you? What if we move

284
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 3: these six chairs to a different location, like the most accommodating.

285
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: So you're in the New Titans head coaches house, rearranging

286
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: his furniture. He's offered you a sandwich, and so what

287
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 1: would you say. We're gonna play the interview. We're gonna

288
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: let the OT people hear this interview. That no one

289
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 1: else has because it was in Cincinnati at his home

290
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: and what.

291
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 3: And they gave it, showed us around. He showed us

292
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 3: some of the memorabilia that he has throughout his house.

293
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: I mean, how many pictures of Peyton Manning? None?

294
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 2: Maybe one? Maybe one? But it wasn't overly paid.

295
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 3: There's probably more pictures of Peyton Manning in your house

296
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 3: than is I don't.

297
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: I don't think I have. I mean, I have a

298
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: couple of autographs. Yeah, he signed a couple of footballs

299
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: that that I have. Very nice.

300
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 2: You all have any pictures of Peyton Manning?

301
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: Why any pictures? I don't know that I have any

302
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: pictures of any athletes in my house.

303
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: Surprising to me.

304
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: I have. I have things.

305
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, most of my I mean mementos.

306
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: Well, ninety percent of the stuff out in my house

307
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: is Titans. A football, the racing helmet I got to wear,

308
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: the Mario Andretti size. That's my favorite piece of memorabile

309
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: outside of my football. That every first round pick as

310
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: a Titan has signed. Oh yeah, except you know who didn't.

311
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: The only one, pac Man Jones.

312
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 2: He didn't sign it.

313
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: I'd never had a chance to get him to sign it.

314
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 2: That's disappointing.

315
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: I think I'm going to have to rectify that at

316
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: some point. Speaking of Cincinnati, I think at some point

317
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to rectify that. No, I don't

318
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: think I have any pictures of anybody.

319
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: Huh. That's surprising to me.

320
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: Maybe Dyson scoring on the Music City Miracle. Ye don't

321
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: have to look around my house. Maybe I should go.

322
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 2: There, just go home and just survey see what you got. No,

323
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 2: I mean, and his house was does.

324
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: He have like a a man cave?

325
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 3: So No, he has kind of an like a wreck

326
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 3: room area where they had some different things, and it

327
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 3: was one of those like rooms we thought we'd use

328
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 3: more than we do. Like everyone has in their home,

329
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 3: like the aspirational entertainer room that you really never used

330
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 3: and just put stuff in.

331
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: That's kind of what they have.

332
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 1: They're just like real people.

333
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 3: They are one hundred percent regular, normal people. And that's

334
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 3: what I walked away from this whole experience with. I mean,

335
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 3: there's a million stories I could tell, but what really

336
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 3: struck me is you are like I felt very comfortable there.

337
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: I felt very like these people could be friends of mine.

338
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 3: We have a lot in common.

339
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, you could go to church with them. You could do.

340
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: They could be friends of yours from your kid's school.

341
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 2: That that's yeah, I mean very much. We're talking about

342
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 2: like kids clothes.

343
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 3: That he left in the middle of the interview because

344
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 3: he had to go take his son to get a haircut.

345
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 2: He was gone for about forty five minutes.

346
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: So is that before after the interview.

347
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 2: Before the interview he left. He welcomed us into his home.

348
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 3: We were there for a while and then he looks

349
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 3: as watch and goes, I gotta take Ronan to get

350
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 3: his haircut. That's his son, Ronan, and who stole the

351
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 3: show at the press Cotton.

352
00:16:58,360 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: Ronan is going to be a fan favorite.

353
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's going to be a mainstay around Ascension Saint

354
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 3: Thomas Sports Park, I believe, and Nora as well, their daughter, Yes,

355
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 3: but both, I mean just the most delightful children. And

356
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 3: but yeah, Ronan needed to get a hair his haircut.

357
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 3: So headball coach leaves about forty five to an hour.

358
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 1: So you sit down to do the interview. Yes, which

359
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: we're going to hear. This is the back cell. You

360
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 1: gotta love this. I'm setting it up. Are you nervous?

361
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 3: You know I was not, because I felt incredibly comfortable

362
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 3: in that space.

363
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: Did you write down the questions?

364
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 2: I did.

365
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 3: I had about four pages of questions, so we had

366
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 3: to I had to rein in my excitement a little bit.

367
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 3: I have my questions, you know, for a standard interview,

368
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 3: I've got my notebook, I'm ready to go. But it

369
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 3: we have been talking this whole time and having conversation,

370
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 3: so it didn't feel weird to be doing an interview,

371
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 3: and honestly, I was thankful for it, because you know,

372
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 3: there's those questions that you want to ask somebody, but

373
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 3: you want to be polite, and well, surely they don't

374
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 3: want to talk about football, so I'm not going to

375
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 3: ask him, you know, about putting together a staff or

376
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 3: this and that. But for an interview, I'm able to

377
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 3: ask those questions. So it was it was things that

378
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 3: in polite conversation I probably wouldn't have asked. But because

379
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 3: I was doing an interview for a football team and

380
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 3: this is what's top of his mind, I got to

381
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 3: ask those questions that I think people want to know.

382
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 3: But if you and I just meet at a party,

383
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 3: I'm not going to ask you too many questions about

384
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 3: your job, because that's not what we're what we're doing,

385
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 3: you know.

386
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 2: So I was thankful to have.

387
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 3: The opportunity to do the interview because I got to

388
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 3: ask him the things that were on my mind. And

389
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 3: it's like, oh, I'm sorry, I have to chos for

390
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 3: my job, which I was great. I always do, and

391
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 3: he was just it was a great interview. He is.

392
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 3: He's just very well spoken. He's very thoughtful with the

393
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 3: things that he is trying to get across. You can

394
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 3: tell that this is something he's been thinking about for

395
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 3: a long time. He's one of those people that you know,

396
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 3: as he's been doing his job, he's been observing and

397
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,679
Speaker 3: thinking about how he do it when he got his chance,

398
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 3: and now that he has his chance, this is something

399
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,160
Speaker 3: he takes very seriously and is very excited about and

400
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 3: is really really ready for.

401
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,199
Speaker 1: All right, we're ready for the interview, but first we

402
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: have to make sure and give everyone a chance to

403
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: get Duncan. Go to Duncan and grab a coffee and

404
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 1: kick off the action. Whether that's drinking a cup of

405
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: coffee on your way to the game or grabbing one

406
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: to go before watching Amy's interview with Brian Callahan. Duncan

407
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 1: is always there to help you get your game on.

408
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: Just like the pros. We need to be at our

409
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 1: best come game time or interview time, which is why

410
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 1: Duncan is the most important part of your game day

411
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 1: ritual because it's always the best call for football America

412
00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: runs on Duncan. So from the OTP amy Wells, Cincinnati, Ohio,

413
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 1: at the home of New Titans coach Brian Callahan enjoyed this.

414
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 4: So, I guess the.

415
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 3: Best place to start is telling you or reminding you.

416
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 3: I should say that you were the head coach of

417
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 3: an NFL football team.

418
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 5: That doesn't feel real yet, right, It doesn't.

419
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 4: That's the question.

420
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 3: Has this sunk in that the last twenty four ish

421
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 3: hours have actually happened and you are now stepping.

422
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 4: Into this role.

423
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 5: No, I haven't been able to process at all.

424
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 6: It's been such a you know, because I went in,

425
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 6: I interviewed, and then I get the job, and I

426
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 6: go to dinner, and I wake up. The next morning,

427
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 6: I leave and I come home and then there's just

428
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 6: like this forty eight hour period. I got to get

429
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 6: a bunch of stuff ready to really get to work.

430
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 6: When I get back and do the press conference, and

431
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 6: you're starting the staff hiring process. It's it's like infancy stages,

432
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 6: but it's starting, and so it's just a it's a

433
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 6: whirlwind of things that I probably won't ever fully process

434
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 6: it until I'm in front of the team that first

435
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 6: time or the first OTA practice where you're it's like

436
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 6: you're out there and you're on the grass coaching football.

437
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,239
Speaker 6: The rest of it up until that point feels very

438
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 6: much like office work until you get to go coach

439
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 6: football again. So yeah, I have not been able to

440
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 6: really process all of it in the factory in my

441
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 6: living room with a camera talking about it.

442
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 5: This feels even stranger.

443
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 3: It definitely is, I'm sure, a whirlwind, and there's not

444
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 3: a moment to catch your breath and really think about

445
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 3: it until.

446
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 4: You're reflecting on it.

447
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 3: So in the spirit of reflecting, because you don't have

448
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 3: time to reflect on this, let's reflect.

449
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 4: On your entire career.

450
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 5: Sure I can do that.

451
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 3: You have really started your career from in coaching, I

452
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 3: should say, from high school coaching high school players.

453
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 4: You've gone all the way up.

454
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 3: You've seen every facet of this game, and now you're

455
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 3: finally here where you want it to be as a

456
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 3: head coach. At what point in your career. Did you

457
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 3: think I could go all the way with this, I

458
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 3: could be an NFL.

459
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 5: You know, I had a good example. My dad was one.

460
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 6: So just like anything you see that, it's possible, and

461
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 6: I was able to envision that for myself. At some point,

462
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 6: I didn't probably really want to go down that path

463
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 6: until after I was a graduate assistant at UCLA. At

464
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 6: I wasn't sure which direction I wanted to head. I

465
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 6: wanted to be in athletics. I enjoyed being around football,

466
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,919
Speaker 6: and I didn't know which what that was going to

467
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 6: look like for me. And so eventually I went to

468
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,400
Speaker 6: go do the high school that I coached high school

469
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 6: for two years, and that part really was enjoyable and

470
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 6: it made me want to continue to do that. And

471
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 6: then I just the opportunity came to get in the

472
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 6: NFL two years after I started, and I was like, oh,

473
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 6: I'll see where this takes me. But I was uncertain

474
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 6: of what that was going to look like when I

475
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 6: was first starting out. Then once I got in the NFL,

476
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 6: I felt like, you know, I could do this. I

477
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 6: could end up in this seat that I'm.

478
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 5: In right now.

479
00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 3: Coaching is not the most glamorous of jobs. Once you

480
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,479
Speaker 3: get to the head roll, it looks very glamorous. But

481
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 3: football families, especially you mentioned that your dad was a coach,

482
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:13,959
Speaker 3: still is football families sometimes do not romanticize the the

483
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 3: sport as much because.

484
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 4: It's taxing on the whole family.

485
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 3: Yes, I did that influence your career choice at all

486
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 3: that you've seen how this really works.

487
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 6: I just knew what I was entering into and when

488
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 6: I when I first told my mom that I wanted

489
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 6: to coach football after I was finished playing. I was

490
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 6: gonna be a graduate assistant. And that went two years

491
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 6: and I said, you know, I think I want to

492
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 6: do this for real, and she wasn't very happy with me.

493
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 6: She's like, you got you have two groups from UCLA,

494
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 6: you can go do whatever you want. Why would you

495
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 6: do this? And I don't know. I just love doing it.

496
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 6: But her point was, there's so many other things you

497
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 6: could do. Why would you choose to enter this volatile

498
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 6: of a profession. And I just loved being around football

499
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 6: and being around players in that part is what That's

500
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 6: what I enjoy about it. The rest of it is

501
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 6: the work part. You know, all the time and effort.

502
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 6: It's a ton of work. There's really no shortcuts, and

503
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 6: if you don't do that part, you're gonna have a

504
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 6: hard time being successful. And so there's a lot of

505
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 6: sacrifice that gets made. But ultimately it's you know, I

506
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 6: have a great wife and great family that that helps

507
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 6: the process move smoothly. But I wouldn't say that there's

508
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 6: a lot of glamour involved in it. For the most part.

509
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 6: It's a lot of hard work and a lot of sacrifice,

510
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 6: just like any jobs where you're trying to do something

511
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 6: really cool and do something collectively that we're trying to

512
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 6: do with the Titans, and there's no other way I

513
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 6: know how to do it. But it is not the

514
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 6: easiest and it is not glamorous. I can promise.

515
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 3: You've had the opportunity to work in a lot of

516
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 3: different places with a lot of different people. Have you

517
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 3: given any thought to what your head coaching style is

518
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 3: going to be, Like what pieces and bits you're going

519
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 3: to grab from each place and kind of put together

520
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 3: there to create what will be the coach Callahan way.

521
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 6: I think that's where I am now. I feel like

522
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 6: I've been very prepared for this moment. There's a lot

523
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 6: of people that have that invested a lot in me

524
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:16,120
Speaker 6: over over the years, and because of that, I've probably

525
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 6: taken bits and pieces of them throughout without even really

526
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 6: thinking about it, just things that I've liked. But I

527
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 6: think what you see now is what you're going to get.

528
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 6: I'm not going to really try to be anybody else

529
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 6: but but me and I feel really confident in that

530
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 6: I feel good about where I am and who I am,

531
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 6: and so that part feels really easy for me. And

532
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,199
Speaker 6: I'm pretty genuine and pretty authentic and that that's not

533
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 6: going to change. You're gonna You're gonna get that every

534
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 6: day for me here. So I don't know that there's

535
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 6: any other you know, the influences are are probably more

536
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 6: in the work as opposed to the personality, and I

537
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 6: think I'm I'm gonna be be be me. It's the

538
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 6: best I can explain it.

539
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 3: Having worked your way up through the NFL, you haven't

540
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 3: taken any shortcuts, you haven't done anything the easy way

541
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 3: to quote unquote easily.

542
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 4: Yeah.

543
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 3: Do you think that makes you uniquely qualified for a

544
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 3: role like this?

545
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 6: I feel qualified for it because of that. I don't

546
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 6: know if anybody else feels that way or not, but

547
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 6: I do think there is something to be said for

548
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 6: for taking those steps in the journey, and the journey

549
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 6: is certainly not over yet for me. But doing those

550
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 6: things in the matter, in the in the sequence that

551
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 6: they've happened for me, I think is prepared me to

552
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 6: be here. I feel like I've earned my way here,

553
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,439
Speaker 6: and I'm proud of the work I've done in all

554
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 6: the places I've been. But there's no point where I've

555
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 6: ever felt like it was easy, but it but it

556
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 6: matters to me, and I'm proud of that. And I

557
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 6: think I'm here today because of that journey I've had

558
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 6: thus far.

559
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 4: What do you learn from being a high school football coach?

560
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a lot you learn from me in a high

561
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 6: schoo football coach. In particular, I was I was the

562
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 6: freshman offensive coordinator, so I get I call Patrick Wallah's

563
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:03,959
Speaker 6: the head coach at Sarta High School and he's one

564
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 6: of my mentors. He coached me at Delasyle High School

565
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 6: when I was in high school. And he'll be at

566
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 6: the press conference too, by the way, which'll be cool.

567
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 6: He said, I got a job for you, and I said,

568
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 6: I need a teaching job. I can't just coach football.

569
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 6: I need to work at the school. I have my

570
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 6: master's in education, like it fits, this will be great.

571
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 6: So I get a job at the school and he says, well,

572
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 6: only job I have for your coaching is the freshman

573
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:30,679
Speaker 6: offensive coordinator. And after playing Division one football and being

574
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 6: a graduate assistant, that was a little bit of a

575
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 6: humbling offer. That was the only offer I had, was

576
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 6: to go be the freshman football coach. And when you

577
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 6: get a bunch of fourteen year olds that probably have

578
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 6: never put shoulder pads on, don't know how to buckle

579
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 6: their helmet, it really makes you refine how you teach

580
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 6: and how you communicate with your kids, how clearly you tell.

581
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 5: Them what to do.

582
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 6: And so it really changed the whole foundation of what

583
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,400
Speaker 6: coaching is for me, and it really brought it back

584
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 6: to it's about teaching, it's how you teach, and that

585
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,719
Speaker 6: hasn't changed in fourteen years in the NFL and at

586
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 6: all the stops I've been, the best coaches I've been

587
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,959
Speaker 6: around are great teachers. And that was probably the most

588
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 6: foundational and influential part of my early journey was coaching

589
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 6: a bunch of fourteen year olds and trying to get

590
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 6: him to getting a three point stance and know how

591
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,919
Speaker 6: to get an athletics stance in general and how to

592
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 6: communicate that. And so that part was a really invaluable

593
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 6: experience for me as a really young coach, like I

594
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 6: don't know everything, and I better figure out how to

595
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 6: talk to these guys or they're not.

596
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 5: Going to have anything either. And so it was a

597
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 5: huge part of my journey.

598
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 3: It has to be if you can get a fourteen

599
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 3: year old to run a play, you can probably communicate

600
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 3: with a professional athlete.

601
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 4: How to maybe do it at a higher level.

602
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, And that's always going to be the key to

603
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 6: all of it is how well do you communicate individually?

604
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 6: How old do you communicate as a leader of a unit,

605
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 6: and how old do I communicate as the head coach

606
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 6: with everybody in the building, everybody on the team. When

607
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:06,479
Speaker 6: you refine those communications styles and techniques with your teaching

608
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 6: as well, and so when you when you communicate well,

609
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 6: you're a good teacher. I think everybody would would think

610
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 6: back to whatever teacher they had that they that made

611
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 6: an impact on him, and it's because they were probably

612
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 6: great communicators at what they were looking for. And so

613
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 6: I pride myself on that, and it's you know, you

614
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 6: can again get you can get a fourteen year old

615
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 6: to do it. You certainly could get a professional athlete

616
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 6: that's paid a lot of money to do that job.

617
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 3: As a coach, you obviously you've been quarterbacks coach, You've

618
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 3: been an offensive coordinator, and you've had the opportunity to

619
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 3: work with some pretty incredible quarterback But kind of across

620
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 3: the spectrum, you've been in some different situations working with

621
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 3: someone like Peyton Manning. So by the time you get

622
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 3: to him, he's pretty much got his routine set. Yes,

623
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 3: Peyton Manning knows what he wants to do by the

624
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 3: time he comes to the Denver Broncos.

625
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 4: What did you learn from working with.

626
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 6: A player like that, Well, that was a unique situation

627
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 6: because he was coming from a place he had been

628
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 6: for fifteen years in Indianapolis. He had run a variation

629
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 6: of the same offense for most of that time, so

630
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 6: he was in transition. He was learning some of the

631
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 6: things that we did in Denver, and we were trying

632
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 6: to learn some things that he did. We're trying to

633
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 6: meld the system of offense to one that was what

634
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 6: we did and what he did, and to make it

635
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 6: our system in Denver and that was unique because he

636
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 6: had never had to do that before. Everything was always

637
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 6: how he had done it, and so we worked really

638
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 6: hard to meld the systems. But when you talking about

639
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 6: learning from a guy like Peyton, outside of helping a transition,

640
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 6: was the preparation part, how intense it was. It was

641
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 6: more me learning what a Hall of Fame quarterback looks like,

642
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 6: what their process looks like, what their preparation on a

643
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 6: weekly basis is supposed to be. And it was like

644
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 6: a PhD in quarterback play. And that part was the

645
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 6: most probably most foundational piece of what I've done since then,

646
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 6: is all those things I learned with Peyton in those

647
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 6: four years in Denver, and it was it was a

648
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 6: lot of fun every day to go to work. It

649
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 6: was hard and he demanded a lot, but it made

650
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 6: me a really good coach and I learned a whole

651
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 6: lot about how what it looks like to play NFL

652
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 6: quarterback at a high level. And I think I hopefully

653
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 6: use those things to help a lot of guys along

654
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 6: the way.

655
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 4: I want to fast forward a little bit.

656
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 3: You've worked with a lot of great quarterbacks, but Joe

657
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 3: Burrow was a name that everyone knows, right now and

658
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 3: a very different situation to where he's a young guy

659
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 3: who's trying to learn how to exist in what is

660
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 3: the National Football League? Do you have to resist taking

661
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 3: some of that and overwhelming him?

662
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 4: Do you almost have to back off a little bit?

663
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 3: How do you manage that because it's such a different

664
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 3: situation completely on the opposite side.

665
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a.

666
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 6: That's a that's a great question because you know, you

667
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 6: have a guy in Peyton that knows what he wants,

668
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 6: how he wants it, and there's not there's only a

669
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 6: there's nobody that's Peyton.

670
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 5: You know, there's Tom Brady and Peyton Manny and Drew.

671
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 6: But like those guys exist in their own stratisy year

672
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 6: player and they're all different, but they're not replicable. You

673
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 6: can't replicate Peyton Manning. I didn't go to Detroit and

674
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 6: try to get Matthew Stafford in his ninth year to

675
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 6: be Peyton Manning.

676
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 5: He's Matthew Stafford. He does things his way.

677
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 6: And I learned that quickly as you deal with different players,

678
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 6: that they're all going to be who they are, and

679
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 6: you try to impart some lessons and some things that

680
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 6: might have worked for somebody in it. You know, we'll

681
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 6: work for Peyton and always work for Matthew, and will

682
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 6: work for Matthew and always work for Derek Carr. And

683
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 6: that's how you learn how to cater to the player

684
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 6: that's there, and you find their strengths and try to

685
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 6: highlight those. Joe is probably the closest you know in

686
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:43,959
Speaker 6: terms of just personality ability to do the things that

687
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 6: Peyton did. But he is also was a twenty one

688
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,239
Speaker 6: year old, twenty three year twenty two, twenty three year

689
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 6: old rookie quarterback that had never played an football before.

690
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 6: As great as he was as a college player, he

691
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 6: had never been in that arena yet, and it was

692
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 6: really fun to be a part of his development and

693
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 6: from you know, first overall pick, Heisman Trophy winner, a

694
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 6: great player, still hadn't played it down in the NFL,

695
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 6: and to be a part of his growth from that

696
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 6: spot as a rookie starting quarterback on a bad football

697
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 6: team into starting in the Super Bowl and back to

698
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 6: back AFC Championship games and being the highest paid player

699
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 6: in football was an unbelievable progression to be a part of.

700
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 6: And there was a lot that was so much different

701
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 6: than these veteran quarterbacks because there was a lot he

702
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 6: was learning, and he was trying to figure out what

703
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 6: worked for him and what didn't work for him, and

704
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,959
Speaker 6: so that process to refine what he wanted to be

705
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 6: and what he wanted to look like playing quarterback was

706
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 6: really fun to be a part of.

707
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 3: Having that experience of working with so many different people

708
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 3: in so many different organizations must give you a sense

709
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 3: of maybe ease or calm walking into being responsible for

710
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 3: an entire locker room of different personalities and different abilities

711
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 3: and different strengths and weaknesses.

712
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 4: Right.

713
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 6: Absolutely, there's something to be said for working for a

714
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 6: lot of different people, being a lot of different ways

715
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 6: of doing things. There's no cookie cutter way that equal

716
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 6: success in the NFL, there's a lot of ways you

717
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 6: can win football games, and being a part of a

718
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 6: lot of different places it just shows you all the

719
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 6: ways that it can happen. And for me, I've taken

720
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 6: bits and pieces and dealing with different types of players

721
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 6: and different places in their career. I feel about as

722
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 6: comfortable as you could feel dealing with with any player

723
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 6: in the locker room at any point, any stage in

724
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 6: their career where they're at from an undrafted rookie college

725
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 6: free agent to you know, a ten time Pro Bowl

726
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 6: player that is the face of a franchise. I've seen

727
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 6: all of it in between. And I think one of

728
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 6: my strengths as a coach is I've always been able

729
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 6: to connect with players and regardless of where they're at

730
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 6: in their journey or in their path, I've I've been

731
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,919
Speaker 6: able to connect and form great relationships and be able

732
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 6: to really coach effectively because of it. So there's a

733
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 6: lot of benefit to being a lot of places and

734
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 6: having experience. Even though I'm you know, I'm thirty nine,

735
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 6: I've lived a long time in the NFL and I've

736
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 6: seen a lot, so it's like dog years, you know,

737
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 6: it's fourteen years in the NFL feels like thirty.

738
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:10,839
Speaker 5: So I feel very prepared for it.

739
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,280
Speaker 4: Great teams have great cultures.

740
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 3: Yes, for you, what does a winning culture look like?

741
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 4: What is that?

742
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 5: It's a great question to me. The culture.

743
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 6: The schematics is probably only about twenty or thirty percent

744
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 6: of what makes a good team, and the culture is

745
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 6: the rest of it. And you want to guys that

746
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 6: are mentally tough. You want people that want to come

747
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 6: to work every day, they want to be around the team.

748
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 6: They want to be around the building. They want to

749
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 6: play for each other. And one of the greatest things,

750
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 6: the most difficult things about when you look at good

751
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 6: teams across all sports, is a bunch of guys that

752
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 6: want to be a part of something bigger than themselves.

753
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 6: They want to be a part of that team and

754
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,399
Speaker 6: play their role. And the best teams that I've been

755
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 6: on have all shared that quality. The best teams that

756
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 6: you look every year, these teams that are still playing,

757
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 6: they share that quality. And when you get into these

758
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 6: moments where the talent is equal, because you get to

759
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 6: that point where everyone's good, that's the difference is how

760
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 6: hard these guys play for each other, how much they

761
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 6: love playing football and being in the building together. And

762
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,280
Speaker 6: you want that sort of culture in your building where

763
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 6: it's fun, it's enjoyable.

764
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 5: Guys love it.

765
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 6: They play hard, they play for each other, they play

766
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 6: for the city. It means something to them. That's what

767
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 6: That's what we hope to hope to be here in Nashville.

768
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 3: What's the best piece of advice you've ever sived? It

769
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 3: can be coaching or otherwise.

770
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 6: Oh man, there's a lot in coaching, a very more

771
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 6: specific to coaching advices. You know, turn, I think the

772
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 6: best way to phrase it, but worry about the job

773
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 6: that you have and do the best, be the best

774
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 6: you can be, whatever your role is. My dad gave

775
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 6: me that advice early in my career because in football,

776
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 6: you know, you become ambitious. You want to be a coordinator,

777
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 6: a head coach, so you're trying to find ways how

778
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,919
Speaker 6: do I get there? Uh, And my dad said early

779
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:12,879
Speaker 6: on in my career, just just worry about the job

780
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 6: that you have and be great at it. Uh, and

781
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 6: the rest of those things take care of themselves. And

782
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 6: so I've always tried to live that way. Is when

783
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 6: I was a quality control coach in Denver, I was

784
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 6: trying to be the best at that, And when I

785
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 6: was an office coordinator here in Cincinnati, I try to

786
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 6: be the best at that and not worry about everything

787
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 6: else that comes after that. And uh, that's really helped me,

788
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 6: I think, be really good at my job and stay

789
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 6: really focused on what's in the moment and what's important

790
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 6: as opposed to thinking about what's what could be or

791
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 6: what should be or where I should be after that.

792
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 5: Yeah.

793
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you were offered the job as a coach

794
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 3: of the Titans.

795
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 4: Who was your first phone call? Who'd you call?

796
00:37:57,960 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: Oh? My wife?

797
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 5: Absolutely, yeah, he was by father first. That was the

798
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 5: first one. She was not expecting it, nor was I.

799
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 6: I wasn't expecting it either, but that was that was

800
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 6: a really cool moment to be able to share because

801
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 6: she's been through all of this and the moves and

802
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 6: the back and forth and new job here, new job here,

803
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 6: that part. You know, I'm gone a lot, I work

804
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 6: a lot, She's got the kids all the time, and

805
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 6: so for her to be able to share some of

806
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 6: that joy was was a pretty awesome moment. And then

807
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 6: obviously right after that, I called my parents and those

808
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 6: are my first two phone calls when I after I

809
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 6: got the job. Is the most important people to me

810
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 6: are my my family and my mom and dad.

811
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 4: So what was your dad's response.

812
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 5: He's proud, he's proud, he's excited.

813
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: You know.

814
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 6: It's I was talking in the car. I don't know

815
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 6: how many fathers and sons I've been head coaches in

816
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 6: the NFL. I know, it's not a long list. And

817
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 6: so that's a that's very that's a very prideful thing

818
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 6: for for him and I to be a part of

819
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 6: and yeah, he was ecstatic. He was just you know,

820
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 6: it's one of those things as a dad, as I

821
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,720
Speaker 6: have my own son, it's like to see your.

822
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 5: To see your your kids have success and whatever they

823
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 5: want to do.

824
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 6: Uh, And I chose to do coaching, and I think

825
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 6: there's something about that that he has a lot of

826
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 6: pride in and really cool moment to see me be

827
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 6: the head coach of the Tennessee Titans.

828
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 4: You mentioned that you have kids you too.

829
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 3: What's it like being able to share this with them

830
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 3: and being able to bring them along for what is

831
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,240
Speaker 3: bound to be a crazy ride.

832
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, they they don't quite get it. They

833
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 6: don't really. I don't think they understand like the gravity

834
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 6: of you know, my dad's a head coach and there's

835
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 6: only one of He's one of thirty two in the

836
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 6: world that's that's in these positions, and so they don't

837
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 6: get that part. They just think it's cool that they

838
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 6: see dad on TV. Sometimes when I'm when I'm up

839
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 6: in the box, they get to see that. They try

840
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 6: to see me on TV and they get their friends

841
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 6: talk about it at school, But they don't really, they

842
00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 6: don't understand the weight of what this is and how

843
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 6: much this means, and how much of a career pinnacle

844
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,919
Speaker 6: this is for me. Someday they will, but right now

845
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 6: they don't quite understand, and they enjoy it. There's a

846
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 6: lot of commotion to it, but they're not quite old

847
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 6: enough to really understand the whole process yet.

848
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 3: But it's got to be cool to be able to

849
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 3: bring them to games and have.

850
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 4: To maybe get a little bit more involved in the game.

851
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 4: Is a football fan.

852
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 6: He's getting there. He's at six. He's starting to kind

853
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 6: of be more interested. And I've always felt like that

854
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 6: peak set around like nine or ten or eleven, where

855
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 6: like boys are just dialed into sports and they know

856
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 6: all the players, and so he's starting to learn players.

857
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 6: This year he kind of got to. He would start

858
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 6: asking about Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase and the guys

859
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,800
Speaker 6: that he'd watched on TV, and they talk about at school.

860
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 6: And he likes being around and I like having real

861
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 6: They love coming to the office, they love being on

862
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 6: the practice fields, and they love coming to training camp.

863
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,760
Speaker 6: And so I want him around as much as possible.

864
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 6: That's how I grew up and to have them be

865
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 6: a part of that is really cool because That's how

866
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:00,720
Speaker 6: I spend my time of them too.

867
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 4: Other than Super Bowls. How do you measure your success

868
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:05,760
Speaker 4: as a head coach?

869
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 6: Oh, you know, I think you know, we're always going

870
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 6: to be judged on on wins and losses ultimately, But

871
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 6: do we have a team of people of guys like

872
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 6: I said that, that want to play for each other,

873
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,840
Speaker 6: that when we go out on Sundays, you know that

874
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 6: they put a product in the field that people are

875
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 6: proud of, that they're excited to watch, that the city

876
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 6: in Nashville can rally around and really have a lot

877
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,760
Speaker 6: of pride in what's occurring. Usually that means you're playing

878
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,319
Speaker 6: well enough to win games, but sometimes you.

879
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 5: Still play well and lose.

880
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 6: But I do think if you have a team of

881
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 6: high character guys that really love playing football that the

882
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 6: city identifies with, that to me is a success. On

883
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,720
Speaker 6: a more personal level, it's forming great relationships with the players,

884
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 6: you know, making sure those guys are are developing as

885
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,879
Speaker 6: a whole person. They're still really young. Most of those

886
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 6: guys are are, you know, in their early twenties, and

887
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 6: so to be there for them to form those relationships

888
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 6: where I can help them grow and develop. It as

889
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 6: people is another part of it too, So I do

890
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 6: wish we were judged on more of those things, but

891
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 6: we're not.

892
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 5: But I think that's the mark of a of a

893
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 5: good coach and a.

894
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 6: Good team is a is a bunch of guys that

895
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 6: that have great character, that love playing together, and there's

896
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,399
Speaker 6: a there's a product in the field that the city

897
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:21,359
Speaker 6: and state can be proud of.

898
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 4: What are your interests outside of football? You don't time?

899
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 6: No, No, I don't and and outside of the free

900
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 6: times usually spend with my kids and my wife.

901
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 5: But I like to play golf a little bit.

958
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 1: and I sat down with him and I just said,

959
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 1: I want to see where it goes.

960
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,440

Speaker 3: was doing an interview with him after he had got

963
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:19,000

Speaker 3: been asked thirty times, right, Yeah, I mean now there's

965
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 3: six or seven questions that he has been asked three hundred.

966
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: Different ways which people should do. That's their job.

967
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's how it goes, and that's what happens

968
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 3: with everyone. But in preparing for this interview, I didn't

969
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 3: have to be like, well, I want to stay away

970
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,719

Speaker 3: Man, There's no better feeling in the world than when

984
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 3: someone says that's a great question, unless they're being a

985
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 3: jerk about it, which sometimes I just yeah, but I

986
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 3: think he was being I think it was like a

987
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 3: genuine like he was like, oh, that's a that's a

988
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 3: great question. Let me think about it. And so like

989
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 3: those were my favorite ones because then you're like, yes,

990
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 3: hit it, you get a little like it endorphins, you

991
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 3: get a little something good.

992
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:27,399
Speaker 1: Yes.

993
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, So those are my favorite questions. But I mean

994
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 3: just being able to talk to him about kind of

995
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 3: his journey and the people that he's worked with. He

996
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 3: loves to talk about the quarterbacks that he has worked with.

997
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 1: It's remarkable.

998
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 3: And when you talk to him about just guys that

999
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:53,360
Speaker 3: he has formed relationships with and guys that he's worked with,

1000
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 3: the Peyton Mannings and Matthew Stafford's, i mean, Joe Burrow,

1001
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 3: all of them, he gets so like excited. Yeah, it's

1002
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 3: like bragging on his kids. You know, He's just excited

1003
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 3: to talk about it. And I thought that that was

1004
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,439
Speaker 3: so interesting because sometimes people get annoyed by the like, oh, yeah,

1005
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 3: they're gonna ask me about the time I worked with

1006
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 3: Peyton Manning, But he genuinely is excited to talk about

1007
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:17,280
Speaker 3: those things.

1008
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: And Peyton Manning was excited to talk about.

1009
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:20,919
Speaker 2: Him, which is also so cool.

1010
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah, called from the golf course.

1011
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,680

00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: Mean had an eight iron in his hand.

1013
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,240
Speaker 2: Well, of course, but.

1014
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:32,720
Speaker 1: He really did. That's what he said on the phone.

1015
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 3: I mean, what does that say about Brian Callahan that

1016
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 3: Peyton Manning would stop golfing to.

1017
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 2: Call and give quotes.

1018
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's pretty great.

1019
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,520

00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:47,120
Speaker 3: right there.

1021
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:48,800
Speaker 1: I have a feeling Peyton Manning is going to be

1022
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 1: here a few times. Oh yeah, well yeah, because Brian

1023
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 1: Callahan's the head coach now, So you don't think he

1024
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:55,800
Speaker 1: shows up at training camp or something.

1025
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:57,799
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. You talked to him more than I.

1026
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: I don't talk to him, But I'm just saying, I

1027
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: bet he. I bet he does.

1028
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 2: I think you're probably right.

1029
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,960
Speaker 1: So tell the OT people what the flight. So you

1046
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 3: which the kids really enjoyed. At that point, all I

1047
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 3: needed was caffeine. Okay, that's that's really what we were

1048
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:59,200

Speaker 3: does not suck. It's pretty great.

1050
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 1: And what's the conversation? Like, I mean, I don't want

1051
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 1: you to tell every story because you don't want to

1052
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 1: give it all away. But what's it? What's it like

1053
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:12,360
Speaker 1: talking to the to the head coach and his wife

1054
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,880

00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 3: much sleep did you get? Not a ton conversation? You know.

1059
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:30,040
Speaker 3: He spent a little time kind of working on the

1060
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,239
Speaker 3: remarks that he was going to make at the press conference.

1061
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:37,719
Speaker 3: Definitely took some time to like just kind of take

1062
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 3: it all in, especially when we were driving from once

1063
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,320
Speaker 3: we landed in Nashville, when we were driving to the stadium,

1064
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 3: or when we were driving to Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park,

1065
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,319
Speaker 3: we drove past the stadium and so that was kind

1066
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 3: of a moment. And there were just little moments where

1067
00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 3: like he realized that this was really happening. But then

1068
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,600

1082
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 3: going to miss the Callahan family when he got the job,

1083
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 3: because they are pretty consistent regulars there.

1084
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 1: That's great, But.

1085
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:58,359

Speaker 3: return the favor. And I know that this community is

1095
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,160
Speaker 3: going to love this family.

1096
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 1: And I thought that was one of the most special

1097
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,320
Speaker 1: parts of Thursday, was just the whole family. M M.

1098
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 1: I guess it's because my kids are grown, yeah, but

1099
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 1: to see the little ones again and that they were

1100
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 1: literally hiding in the cabinets in his office and jumping

1101
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:45,920
Speaker 1: out at people, and Ronan was up and down the

1102
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 1: halls and they they are at home. They had a

1103
00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 1: big time.

1104
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:51,160
Speaker 2: They had a big time.

1105
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,400
Speaker 1: That's how it. I mean, you think about it because

1106
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 1: you think about Nora and Ronan and wherever they go

1107
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,400
Speaker 1: and whatever they do. I mean, these memories will be

1108
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 1: somebody because they're old enough that they will remember all

1109
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 1: of this well.

1110
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:10,880
Speaker 3: But and the thing that strikes me is that Coach

1111
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:16,479
Speaker 3: Callahan is a coach's kid, right, and so for him

1112
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:20,960
Speaker 3: to be able to have these moments now with his kids, Yea,

1113
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 3: it's important and it's special to him to make sure

1114
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,880
Speaker 3: that they're incorporated in this because he was incorporated with

1115
00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:31,399
Speaker 3: his dad, and so passing that along, making sure that

1116
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 3: that's a priority. He understands the family piece of it.

1117
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:39,840
Speaker 3: He knows the things that they'll remember from these moments

1118
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 3: and from the spaces that they're able to be in

1119
00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:47,839
Speaker 3: and you realize you have moments where you realize how

1120
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 3: crazy this business is and what a big deal it

1121
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,399
Speaker 3: is to be able to do what it is you do.

1122
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 3: He mentioned a couple times that there's only thirty two

1123
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,359
Speaker 3: people in the world who do this job and he's

1124
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:03,799
Speaker 3: now one of them. And having that realization always kind

1125
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:07,520
Speaker 3: of strikes me because it's true and that's such a

1126
00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:10,879
Speaker 3: small number of people when you think about the whole world. Sure,

1127
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,799
Speaker 3: and so he wants to be able to have that

1128
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 3: experience for himself but also pass it down to his

1129
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 3: family and make sure that they're able to have those

1130
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:24,320
Speaker 3: moments as well and really enjoy.

1131
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:24,399
Speaker 2: What it is that he does.

1132
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 3: And I think that that's really special, and I think

1133
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,399
Speaker 3: that his perspective on it is so unique.

1134
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: Pretty good for you.

1135
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 2: Oh it, I mean, I had the time of my life.

1136
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:35,319
Speaker 1: Welcome back.

1137
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:39,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. It is really really good to be back.

1138
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,160
Speaker 1: But to be back like that, to get the first

1139
00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,399
Speaker 1: interview with Brian Callahan, that's pretty good work.

1140
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:48,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not a bad first week back. Maybe a

1141
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:49,600
Speaker 3: little rusty, but we'll shake that up.

1142
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,160
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting that he and Ran Carthon are

1143
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:55,200
Speaker 1: not going to the Senior Bowl, sort of following a

1144
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 1: different trend. We're starting to see fewer and fewer headcat

1145
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,880
Speaker 1: coaches go to the Senior Bowl. And I think in

1146
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,919
Speaker 1: this case, however, it's largely about putting the staff together.

1147
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1148
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,800
Speaker 3: I think this is a timing thing more than anything else.

1149
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,279
Speaker 3: That because of when he was hired, not that it

1150
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:15,320
Speaker 3: was earlier or late, just how it falls on the calendar.

1151
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 3: He's got some things that he wants to take care

1152
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 3: of that feel more time sensitive, and there's enough people

1153
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 3: going down there that he trusts that he doesn't necessarily

1154
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 3: need to be boots on the ground. There are other

1155
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 3: people who can evaluate scout, do the things that they're

1156
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:32,320
Speaker 3: to do, and they still get another shot of a

1157
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:34,520
Speaker 3: shot at a lot of these guys and the combine

1158
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 3: in a couple that's right. So just the timing of

1159
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,280
Speaker 3: how things lined up. I don't think that he's anti

1160
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 3: Senior Bowl. I think it's just the way that everything

1161
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:47,720
Speaker 3: lined up. But I think you're right that we're starting

1162
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:51,480
Speaker 3: to see different emphasis being put in different places when

1163
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:55,720
Speaker 3: it comes to some of these kind of all star

1164
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 3: balls and some of the different scouting opportunities, And I

1165
00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 3: thin I think a lot of that has to do

1166
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:04,319
Speaker 3: with just how many things are digital now, or how

1167
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 3: many things are televised, and just the way that things are.

1168
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,120
Speaker 3: He was talking about workouts even at the Combine, and

1169
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,400
Speaker 3: he said, there's so much stuff that's on TV now.

1170
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,399
Speaker 3: You're not seeing anything different on TV than what we're

1171
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 3: seeing in the building. You know, it's the same stuff.

1172
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 3: So that makes it a little less not that guys

1173
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 3: aren't at the combine or anything like that, but it's

1174
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 3: not imperative that you are in your seat at a

1175
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:28,880
Speaker 3: certain time in that moment because it's all recorded and

1176
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,840
Speaker 3: it's all televised. So it's just the way that the

1177
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:36,280
Speaker 3: world is. So many things are more available. You don't

1178
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 3: have to physically be there for every moment of every

1179
00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:42,560
Speaker 3: event at every time. So just because someone physically isn't

1180
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 3: in a space doesn't mean they're not working. They're definitely working.

1181
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 1: Good Angle, Thank you so much for your work.

1182
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:48,400
Speaker 2: It was fun.

1183
00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I am just I'm excited about the future. I'm

1184
00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 3: excited about this human. I'm so glad he's leading the Titans.

1185
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:56,959
Speaker 2: I'm excited to do best.

1186
00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:00,359
Speaker 1: Brabby wells I Mike Keith thanking you for this. Nig

1187
