Speaker 4: one of the more exciting events that's on kind of

22
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 4: the immediate horizon this weekend. Yeah, and that's back together Saturday.

23
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 4: The Titans are hosting a huge event at Nissan Stadium

24
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,839
Speaker 4: on the twenty seventh Saturday. Yes, tell me a little

25
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 4: bit about this event. Tell me about what fans can

00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 4: expect when they show up.

27
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, excited to bring this back and do it better

28
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 3: than ever. It's basically a Tennessee Titans festival at the stadium.

29
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 3: So people coming onto campus, they're going to see kids events,

30
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 3: They're going to see your kind of typical tailgating games.

31
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 3: There's discounted concessions, face painting, t rac and cheerleaders wandering

32
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 3: around and hanging out with fans. But most importantly, there's

33
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 3: gonna be Titans football down on the field. Opportunity for

34
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 3: fans to get a first glimpse at the new players,

35
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 3: the new coaching staff, watch them run around and have

36
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 3: a practice, autographs after the game. It's going to be

37
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 3: a fun event and excited to bring it back.

38
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: Did you say it's been since twenty nineteen. I didn't

39
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: say that it's been five years. Why is this the

40
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: right time to do this event Saturday.

41
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 2: At the stadium.

42
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's you know, honestly, a little inside baseball. We

43
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 3: had a logistical challenge for years. It's hard to line

44
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 3: up the football calendar with a time that's gonna be

45
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 3: open at the stadium and be the right time for

46
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 3: the team to be preparing. We had done this thing

47
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 3: in the past, and we hosted an IndyCar Race for

48
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 3: three years and that race was awesome for the city.

49
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 3: We had believed for a while we might be able

50
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 3: to coexist with an event like that with the race,

51
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 3: and it just wasn't able to be done safely. So

52
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 3: the IndyCar Race is now moved out to the super

53
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 3: Speedway and this opens up the calendar again for us

54
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 3: and Coach Callahan couldn't have been more excited about making

55
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 3: it work and getting the team over there to have

56
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 3: a close encounter with the fan.

57
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: So let's say again this Saturday, eleven am at Nissan Stadium,

58
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans dot Com Slash Training Camp. Fans can claim

59
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: their tickets for this Saturday's open practice at Nissan Stadium,

60
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans dot Com Slash Training.

61
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and those those tickets are free.

62
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you point that out.

63
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, the best part it's we just we want to

64
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 3: have a sense of you know, how many fans to

65
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 3: expect that we can be hosting. We've had well over

66
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: ten thousand fans that have already claimed their tickets, so

67
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 3: it's going to be We're.

68
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 4: So excited to see everybody out at Nissan Stadium because

69
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 4: there's so much excitement around this team right now, and

70
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 4: a lot of that is thanks to Brian Callahan and

71
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 4: his new coaching staff. As somebody who was intimately involved

72
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 4: in the hiring process, how gratifying has it been for

73
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 4: you to see him really bring to fruition some of

74
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 4: the things that I'm sure you guys talked about back

75
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 4: in January.

76
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

77
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 3: Look, I think anytime you're going through an interview process,

78
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 3: you really hope that the things that you get to

79
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 3: know about somebody over the three, four or five hours

80
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 3: that you're interviewing someone come to bear. And it's all

81
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 3: that much more important when you're talking about the head

82
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 3: coach football team just sets the tone almost more than

83
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 3: anybody else in the building. And so we set out

84
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: looking for a head coach, focusing on certainly skill and

85
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 3: experience of that head coach, philosophy, attitude, really trying to

86
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 3: you so badly want to get a ten out of

87
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 3: ten in that position. And Brian, I would say from

88
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 3: our initial research, from the very beginning, was at the

89
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 3: top of the list of who seemed like would be

90
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 3: the best fit for what we were looking for as

91
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 3: a head coach. And I think from the first meeting

92
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 3: he started with that lead and never lost that lead.

93
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 3: You know, Ran from the beginning was smitten with him.

94
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 3: Everyone else in the interview committee really appreciated Brian. And

95
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 3: what has been really gratifying to your point is that

96
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 3: I think Brian has actually proved to be better than

97
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 3: we thought he was during that interview process and based

98
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 3: on the references we had gotten. He is a genuine person.

99
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 3: He sets a great tone, He works so well with

100
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 3: Ryan and Chad, his coaching staff. I mean, this is

101
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 3: an even more attractive place to work than it ever

102
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 3: was before because of Brian. People want to work with Brian.

103
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: The players want to play for Brian, and I'm excited

104
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 3: to actually I know he would say the same thing.

105
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,119
Speaker 3: Excited to actually see that come onto the field here

106
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 3: in training camp and during the season. I mean, that's

107
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: what really matters the most. He would tell you the

108
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 3: same thing. But in terms of Brian Callahan the coach,

109
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 3: the person, he has absolutely exceeded expectations since she showed

110
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: up in January.

111
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: Amy made a really insightful comment last week on the

112
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: OTP about Brian, about the fact that she had the

113
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: opportunity to go to his home in Cincinnati and that

114
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: he is no different when they sat in his home

115
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 1: that day in January than he is to this point.

116
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: And I thought that was really telling. And that's been

117
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: my experience too, in just the dealings I've had with him.

118
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: From your experience, Burke Nighill, what is something different about

119
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 1: him that you didn't know that you really enjoyed getting

120
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: to know about Brian Callahan through this product.

121
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, let me first respond to what you said the

122
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: first time. The word consistent came up a lot when

123
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 3: you talked about Brian, and I think that is an

124
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 3: incredibly important part of being a head coach, because you're

125
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 3: gonna have ups and downs, right, You're going players want

126
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: a coach who is consistent, right, treats them consistently, is

127
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 3: steady on a Monday after a bad game, right, And

128
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 3: and you absolutely see Brian Callahan in any environment is

129
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 3: the same guy, right, And that's that's huge. The thing

130
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: I would say is different about Brian than I expected

131
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 3: I'm going to say it's different, but it's not that

132
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 3: I didn't think this about him. He's really really cool.

133
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 3: His taste in music, his his taste in vacations, and

134
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 3: that sort of thing. I was I was talking to

135
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 3: somebody from the music industry and they mentioned something about

136
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 3: Kings of Leon and Brian overheard it and giant Kings

137
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 3: of Leon fan and Zach. Brian was in town and

138
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 3: I was went by and visited Brian. He was there

139
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: with his family and his kids were talking about you know,

140
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 3: this is the song that you play on in the

141
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 3: car all the time.

142
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: Dad.

143
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 3: He's a He's a really really cool and interesting guy

144
00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 3: outside of the football.

145
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: So I'll a lot of new faces on this roster

146
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: and Titans fans getting to know them very well. Coach Callahan,

147
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: coaching staff, new people all the way around. But I

148
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: want to talk about Ran Carthon and what he's been

149
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: able to do sort of holding all of this together.

150
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: What is it about Ran Carthon that allows him to

151
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: connect with so many different people so easily and that

152
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: he's been able to show it in this way in

153
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: this particular offseason.

154
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 3: You hear about Ran all the time that he's a

155
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 3: people person. He has this exceptional eq emotional quotient and

156
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 3: there really is this superpower where he wants to understand

157
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 3: people and wants to get to know them and connect

158
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: with them. And this offseason you've seen it in two

159
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 3: really meaningful and powerl ways. I think the first way

160
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 3: was oh building the coaching staff. Ran was a massive

161
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 3: asset fruiting coaches who were wanted by several other teams

162
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 3: to come to the Titans. It starts with Brian Callahan,

163
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 3: but it precedes to Brian's staff. I mean, Dinard Wilson

164
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 3: was wanted by just about every team that had a

165
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 3: defensive coordinator opening, and he chose us.

166
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 2: And I do not.

167
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 3: Discredit in the least bit that Ran Carthon was a

168
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 3: huge part of ultimately selling the Titans is a great

169
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 3: place to come and work as a defensive coordinator. But

170
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 3: then he really gets to know those coaches and understands

171
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 3: what makes them tick, what types of players they want.

172
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 3: He's curious, he asks questions, wanting to understand whether it's

173
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 3: the measurables or the specific intangibles that they're looking for

174
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 3: a positioned by position, he really just took the time

175
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 3: to get to know those coaches to help build a

176
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 3: roster that they were going to be excited about playing

177
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 3: on the field. Then he puts that to use to

178
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 3: ultimately convince players who are free agents that this is

179
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 3: a good place work too.

180
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 2: And in the same way, there were.

181
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 3: Several stories that emerged from this offseason where there was

182
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 3: a player that was wanted by several teams and Rand

183
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 3: was a huge difference maker and recruiting that player. Calvin

184
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 3: Ridley is maybe the top of the list. I think

185
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 3: that story has been out there a few times that

186
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 3: Ran jumping on the phone with Calvin Ridley as he

187
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 3: was considering other options. It was a really really big

188
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 3: deal for him feeling comfortable to come here, and you know,

189
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 3: they weren't just talking ball, right. Rand was connecting with

190
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 3: him as you know, where he grew up and really

191
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 3: getting to know him personally. And by the end of

192
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 3: that conversation, Calvin Ridley felt great about signing a contract

193
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 3: here and bringing his talent to Nashville.

194
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 4: So we've built a roster, we've built a coaching staff,

195
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 4: and it seems like there's a lot of great things

196
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 4: going on within kind of our football corps. But there's

197
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,079
Speaker 4: a little secret sauce too, And I think that's Chad Brinker,

198
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 4: the Titans president of football Operations. He has done such

199
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 4: a good job of providing cohesion and leadership down there.

200
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 4: That has to be something that has been really impressive

201
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 4: to you, Burke, because he's only been in this role

202
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 4: for a short amount of time.

203
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Chad, to no confusion, Chad's a football guy.

204
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 3: Chad was a great football player in his own right

205
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 3: and went into scouting at a at a young age

206
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 3: and is a great scout. But Chad also just has

207
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 3: something that I think is pretty unique for the football business,

208
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 3: and he just has this different understanding of leadership and

209
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 3: how to put disparate parts together to create one unit,

210
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 3: which is incredibly important in today's NFL. I mean, Mike,

211
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 3: you've been with this team forever and the evolution of

212
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 3: the football operation smaller coaching staff, smaller scouting staff, smaller

213
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 3: video staff, data and analytics didn't exist, and it is

214
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 3: becoming more and more complicated. It's it's a there's a

215
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 3: lot of people that have to all be on the

216
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 3: same page, doing their jobs in a way that fits

217
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 3: the pieces together so that we're all rowing in one

218
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 3: direction and Chad. I mean he has an NBA from Northwestern.

219
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 3: He studies Navy seals and how they ultimately go and

220
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 3: and attack the things that they attack. He brings this

221
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 3: different sensibility about him, but at his course of football guy,

222
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,959
Speaker 3: So we understands, you know how all this needs to

223
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 3: ultimately put these pieces together to be great at football

224
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 3: and to build a sustainable championship team.

225
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: All right, Let's talk about our friends at Pinnacle for

226
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: just a second before we continue with Burke NYE Hill.

227

Speaker 1: Open a Titans checking account with at least one hundred

228

231
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: Checking from Pinnacle play Hard Bank Easy member fdice. As

232
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: we talk with Burke Nyhill, we're going to turn from

233
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: the football specific to new stadium tickets, all of these

234
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: different sorts of issues. But the number one question that

235
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: I have gotten from Titans fans in regard to this

236
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: very broad topic is what is Titan's House. I'm hearing

237
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: about Titan's House. Do you get to go there? Who's

238
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: in the house? What do we do Berkenyehill? What is

239
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: Titan's House? Can you give just a thirty thousand foot

240
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: view that lets the OT people know what it is?

241
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 3: Absolutely at its base level, it's a stadium experience center.

242
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 3: There is a complete paradigm shift from the current Nissan

243
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 3: Stadium to the new Nissan Stadium in terms of what

244
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 3: it feels like, in terms of the experiences that are available.

245
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 3: So we have built a separate space in the Germantown

246
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 3: neighborhood of Nashville that brings that to life as much

247
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,839
Speaker 3: as you can in a smallish space. So you'll see

248
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 3: design features that are reminiscent of the new stadium. There

249
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 3: is an audio visual experience that you can walk through

250
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 3: and really feel and sense what this new stadium is

251
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 3: going to feel like. We went so far as to

252
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,719
Speaker 3: build out an exact to the inch replica suite in

253
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 3: this space. There's a beautiful model who spends as much

254
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 3: time as they did on a model like that. It

255
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 3: must have been somebody who was really good at legos

256
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 3: growing up or something, but it's really impressive. I mean

257
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 3: it would if it was sitting in this space right here,

258
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 3: it would we could all sit inside of it. It's

259
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 3: so big, so it's an opportunity to interact with what

260
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 3: this building is going to be. That is going to

261
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 3: be the new home of the Tennessee Titans.

262
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 4: So what can people do if they have been invited?

263
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 4: Did they receive an email if people want to experience Titans.

264
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 3: Yes, we are proud of the plan we came up with.

265
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 3: I'm not sure there's an exact, perfect right answer, but

266
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 3: as you can imagine, they're literally tens of thousands of

267
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 3: people that are wanting to come through and get a

268
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 3: sense of what this stadium is, look into the possibility

269
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 3: of becoming a part of the new stadium with a

270
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 3: personal seat license or some other way, and.

271
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 2: So we've had to order that. We have a huge

272
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 2: staff over there.

273
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 3: There's twenty plus people that work there every day that

274
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 3: host people and help walk them through and show them

275
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 3: what's available.

276
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 2: We've structured it in three waves.

277
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 3: We're currently in wave number one, and so people can

278
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 3: right now go to New Nissan Stadium dot com and

279
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 3: express an interest in becoming a part of the wait

280
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 3: list and getting an invitation. Existing season ticket members don't

281
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 3: need to do that. We are going to be in

282
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 3: touch with all of them We already have and will

283
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 3: continue to be in touch with them about when their

284
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 3: opportunity to come through Titan's.

285
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 2: House would be.

286
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 3: But we're expecting that we're going to have these appointments

287
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 3: for probably in the next three years. So if somebody

288
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 3: hasn't gotten an invitation right now, please just be patient.

289
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 3: We'll eventually get to you. What we are doing in

290
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 3: Wave one is focusing on premier memberships, so that is

291
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 3: the clubs and more premium experiences. Waves two and three

292
00:15:58,440 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 3: will get to the reserve seating.

293
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: How has Waved one gone.

294
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 3: It has exceeded expectations, Mike, I think our fans you've

295
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 3: had an opportunity to come through, have have really been

296
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 3: blown away by the Titans House experience, which really isn't

297
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 3: just about the Titans House, but it is this close

298
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 3: encounter with what this new stadium is going to be.

299
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 3: And I think there's a different depth of understanding about

300
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 3: what's really coming here for the Tennessee Titans and Nashville

301
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 3: and Titans fans.

302
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 4: You can tell that we have moved into bigger phases

303
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 4: of building this stadium and getting this project going. For

304
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 4: no other reason, if you're driving down I twenty four

305
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 4: around downtown Nashville, a giant hole in the ground, a

306
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 4: bunch of a bunch of dirt everywhere burg How much

307
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 4: of an effort was it to dig a stadium sized

308
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 4: crater just in the earth.

309
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I can remember when there was a video

310
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 3: of someone center around of that first backo getting into

311
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 3: the into the asphalt. And it's been now twenty three

312
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 3: thousand truckloads of dirt that.

313
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 2: Have been moved off of this site.

314
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,640
Speaker 3: And that doesn't include the pile that's still sitting there

315
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 3: that will a lot of it will use to backfill

316
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 3: as the construction continues. You see why it's such a

317
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 3: massive effort.

318
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 2: It is.

319
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: We have a really impressive team that's working on at

320
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 3: Kelen de Corsi is our project executive internally with the

321
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 3: Titans Tennessee Builders Alliance is a great group of contractors

322
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 3: who are pulling it all together for us. And Man,

323
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 3: I knew this was going to be a big deal,

324
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 3: but when you actually stand and look at the scale

325
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 3: of that.

326
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 2: I actually took Amy.

327
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 3: Into the stadium yesterday and we went up to one

328
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 3: of the ramps on the three hundred level to really

329
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 3: get a bird's eye view, and it is a massive,

330
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 3: massive project that is fun coming, you know, seeing you know,

331
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 3: come out of the ground and come to life.

332
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: So if I'm driving by and I can safely look right,

333
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: what should I want to see?

334
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 3: As you're driving by, You're gonna you're probably not gonna

335
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 3: get that great of a view because we've got we've

336
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 3: got scrim and trailers and mounds of dirt. But especially

337
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 3: if people are coming into the stadium over the next

338
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 3: few months, there are all sorts of opportunities get birds

339
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 3: eye view. You can see from the East Club, you

340
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 3: can see from the ramps on the on the east side.

341
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 3: And one of the things that's really neat for me

342
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 3: to look at is you can start to see the

343
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 3: shape of the building starting to uh to take form,

344
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 3: and can just start picturing, you know, kind of what

345
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 3: the concourses are going to.

346
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:28,159
Speaker 2: Be like, and it's it's wider.

347
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 3: You can start to picture that rectangle space that's the

348
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 3: front door of the building. You can look closely and

349
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 3: see where the boundaries and borders of that is going

350
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 3: to be. That's today, that's this week. As the season

351
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 3: goes along, what I'm being told by our construction team

352
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 3: is by the end of this season, I mean, it's

353
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 3: gonna look a whole lot like an actual building. So

354
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 3: you're not gonna have to use your imagination all that

355
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 3: much at all. It's you're gonna you're gonna look from

356
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 3: the current stadium and you're gonna see something that looks

357
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 3: a whole lot like this new building is going to

358
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 3: look like.

359
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 1: So, we got a big hole, We've got a lot

360
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: of dirt.

361
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 3: Now what we're gonna canntinue to come out of the ground.

362
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 3: You're going to see pylons coming up and everything else.

363
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 3: But it's about just continuing to get it right, Mike.

364
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 3: This is not something that you ever want to take

365
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 3: your eye off the ball on. There's still some design

366
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 3: decisions that we're continuing to make. We are trying to

367
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 3: make sure that everyone in Nashville who wants an opportunity

368
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 3: to work on this project has an opportunity to work

369
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 3: on this project. We recently had a ribbon cutting for

370
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 3: a workforce development project that we have underway. There was

371
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 3: a story from this ribbon cutting. A gentleman named Jason,

372
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: and Jason was a teacher and unfortunately one of his

373
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 3: students passed away and he spiraled a little bit and

374
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 3: ended up homeless. Jason heard about the new stadium project,

375
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 3: heard about this workforce opportunity.

376
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 2: Jason showed up.

377
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 3: At this trailer, was taught how to use power equipment,

378
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 3: was taught how to be a part of this construction project.

379
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 3: And Jason sees a totally different director of his life

380
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 3: because of this new stadium project and doing a little

381
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 3: bit of this thought work on the front end and

382
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 3: connecting somebody like Jason with the opportunities to build this stadium.

383
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,199
Speaker 3: And I just picture Jason, you know, thirty years from now,

384
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 3: driving by looking at that stadium and telling his grandkids,

385
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 3: you know, your grandpa worked on that building. So we're

386
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 3: still we're continuing to focus on all that this is

387
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 3: such a cool opportunity. We got to get it right.

388
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 3: But there's also these other things that come along with it.

389
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 3: If we really continue to invest and don't take our

390
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,479
Speaker 3: eye off the ball, it can be an even more

391
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 3: special thing for Nashville.

392
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 4: Now, you mentioned that workforce center, and I know that

393
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 4: that's something that we've opened recently, and you kind of

394
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 4: touched on the ways that it can help with this

395
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 4: stadium project. Really, this stadium is designed to be a

396
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 4: touch point for the community, not only once there's football,

397
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 4: But right now today, what are some of the ways

398
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 4: that this new stadium is already impacting that part of

399
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 4: Nashville and Middle Tennessee overall.

400
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've talked about this stadium being the people's house.

401
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 3: Who we are as an organization. We talked about our

402
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 3: mission statement all the time, win Serve entertained. And so

403
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 3: when you build a building like this, you want it.

404
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 2: You want to win.

405
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 3: You want it to be a great building. You want

406
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 3: people to be proud of this building. You want it

407
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 3: to be a building built for home field advantage. You

408
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 3: definitely want it to be a place that we can

409
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 3: serve the community. We want it to be a place

410
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 3: that's used all the time by the community to make

411
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 3: this community a better place. And then obviously we're going

412
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 3: to juice that thing for all the entertainment opportunities we can.

413
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,400
Speaker 3: For the things we're doing today and things we haven't

414
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 3: done before, you know, Final fours and Super Bowls and

415
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 3: that sort of thing. We're gonna throw a hat in

416
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 3: the ring and think we'll win some of those. But

417
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 3: on that serve piece, it just takes a lot of intent,

418
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 3: It takes a lot of effort. It takes a lot

419
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,919
Speaker 3: of strategy. We've got people like Adolpho Birch and Jahari

420
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 3: Matthews and Haley Davidson who are really they deeply understand

421
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 3: this community and are invested in this community, understand the

422
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 3: opportunities in this community, and we just keep looking for

423
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 3: more opportunities. We talk about we have twelve thousand square

424
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 3: feet of space that is going to be a community

425
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 3: center space. It's going to be actually one of the

426
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 3: first floor plates that's built in the building, which I

427
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 3: think is.

428
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 2: Convenient. Really, I think it's.

429
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 3: It's also but it's apropos right, It's it's the first

430
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 3: thing that's going to be coming out of the ground.

431
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 3: Is the place that's going to be used by this

432
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 3: community to invest in our neighbors.

433
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 1: Do you feel it? I mean, it's been a year

434
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: of you know, battling to get it done, to get

435
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 1: the money, to get everything together, to bid out processes,

436
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: to break ground. Now you've certainly broken ground. You got

437
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 1: a big hole and a lot of dirt and steels

438
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: starting to go in the ground. Does it all start

439
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 1: to feel real for Burke Nye Hill?

440
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 2: Now?

441
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I I the groundbreaking was a was a real moment.

442
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 3: For me personally, I mean, this is this is clearly

443
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 3: about Amy Adam's drunk and the Titans organization and our fans.

444
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,880
Speaker 3: But you know, on a personal level, I went back

445
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 3: and looked and the first email mail that I sent

446
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 3: about needing to find a new path forward relative the

447
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 3: stadium was in twenty eighteen. Twenty eighteen. We recognized that

448
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 3: there was something that had to be done and rather

449
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 3: than staying that the current course and so just so

450
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,399
Speaker 3: many people put in so much effort and you know,

451
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 3: woke up in the morning and it was a big

452
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 3: part of their days for so long. I mean it

453
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 3: still is. But at the groundbreaking it was this this

454
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 3: opportunity to see so many of those people in the room,

455
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 3: and it was so humbling on behalf of this organization

456
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 3: to see how many people from so many different corners

457
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 3: of Nashville and Tennessee care so deeply about the Tennessee Titans,

458
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 3: about Nashville, about Tennessee, and that there was this this

459
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 3: effort where so many people came together to make this real.

460
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 2: It was really special.

461
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 3: And now in the weeks that have followed, it's I mean,

462
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 3: it's happening right, there's there's it's a massive, massive project

463
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 3: that I'm another ground.

464
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 2: My parents hadn't hadn't been back to.

465
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 3: Nashville for a while, and they drove down I twenty

466
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 3: four and they know how much we've all invested in

467
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 3: this and just couldn't stop talking about the scale of

468
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 3: the project and how after all of these years, it's real.

469
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 3: This is there's going to be a new stadium in Nashville.

470
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 3: It's going to be I think, one of the special
