Ep. 36 - Titans GM Jon Robinson Unfiltered: Football, Fatherhood, and Fine Bourbon in Bardstown

Amid the buzz of the iconic Kentucky Bourbon Festival, Jason and Bradford slipped into the shadows of the secret speakeasy at The Trail Hotel in Bardstown, Kentucky. The warm glow of vintage glass and aged oak set the stage for a rare, unfiltered conversation with Jon Robinson — the fearless architect behind the Tennessee Titans’ boldest moves.

Jrob dives deep, sharing candid insights on building a winning Titans roster, making tough calls under intense scrutiny, and navigating life in the NFL spotlight. But the conversation doesn’t stop on the field. He opens up about fatherhood, the daily realities of raising kids with Type 1 diabetes, and the resilience and grit required to balance career, family, and personal growth.

No cigars, no Kimber — just two standout pours: 15 Stars Fine Aged Bourbon and Jackson Purchase Bourbon. 15 Stars opens the tasting with its rich, smooth layers of caramel, vanilla, and warm oak — a bourbon as steady and dependable as a veteran quarterback. Jackson Purchase brings a bold, higher proof edge with hints of warm butter, a whiskey that mirrors the high-stakes decisions and pressure of leading an NFL franchise.

This is bourbon country in its purest form: an evening of rich pours, bold stories, and raw honesty. From savoring 15 Stars and Jackson Purchase to exploring the highs, lows, and unseen challenges of football and fatherhood, this episode is a masterclass in grit, grace, and living intentionally — one sip at a time.
