Mayor Orders Commission To Examine Storm Response. Plus, What To Know About Sports Betting in Nashville

Mayor O’Connell has issued an executive order to create a commission to review the response to Winter Storm Fern. We’ve got the latest on that, plus: Although time currently has no meaning, the Super Bowl is this weekend! But before you create that parlay on a gambling app, you might want to know a little more about how online sports betting works here in Tennessee. We’re revisiting a conversation between executive producer Whitney Pastorek and Ryan Nanni, co-host of the Phantom Island podcast, about the way gambling on sports is impacting our community, for better or for worse. ** This episode originally aired Sept. 22, 2025.
