What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's 12 degrees in Manchester, 11 in Leith, 22 in Jacksonville. Look at Jacksonville. This is Teal Talk, the official podcast for the Jacksonville Jaguars UK and Ireland in partnership with Gallagher. I'm Jay Lawrence. No relation. Hello, Rhys Parkinson.
Hello, Jay Lawrence. No relation. I bring news. Very big news.
Hello.
We have two London games in 2026 for the Jacks. Come on. Big news. Amazing news. Huge news. Huge news. One of them is going to be, well, two home games for us. which is interesting this time. And we have one at Wembley and one at Spurs' stadium. And then there's a third game, which isn't going to be us, but it's the commanders, Washington commanders, who are going to play one of their home games in London as well. But the Jags, we've got two in 2026.
It's mega, it's mega. We're going to go through... The potential opponents. We have no idea who they're going to be playing, but we'll go through the potential opponents. We'll talk more about the London games. And as well, today, we're going to crown, and this is big, the 2025 Jags International Fan of the Year. Jason Bell will be breaking the news to the lucky, well-deserved winner who'll be going to the 2026 NFL Draft. Rhys, you've not heard this. Get the tissues out.
What exciting news was announced about the Jaguars' London games in 2026?
I'm not joking. I felt tears. There was tears from the person. I had tears. Even Jason Bell, the man with the iron heart. He had tears. No, I'm just joking. But, you know, it's an amazing part.
It is, though. The thing, I think people, you know, we go to every year that the team comes over. But when we have the open training practices that people can go to, like some people don't understand the dedication of the fans that we have here. and the lengths that they're willing to go to support the team. Like, you know, you'll leave in a God knows what in the morning, wherever over the UK or even sometimes outside of the UK in Europe, you know, flying over from Ireland, for example. We have fans from all over that will come just to see a practice or they'll come to one of the games that they just want to be a part of it. So it doesn't surprise me that I'm sure it got quite emotional. It is everywhere.
We'll hear from that winner later on today, later on in the episode as well. But first, the London 2026 games, Rhys. You mentioned it a little bit earlier on. The Jacksonville Yankees will be hosting a game at Wembley Stadium. They'll be hosting a game at Tottenham Hotspur as well. I want to be clear, Rhys. This is historic. This is like genuine history because... There has been, I'm just fact-checking as I'm saying this in my brain, no other team to host two international games in one season, but the Jacksonville Jaguars are going to be the first to do it, which is so exciting. And it means for that period of time, essentially, in my mind, London is teal. London is teal for that fortnight.
And when we, I know it was different last time, I think we did, obviously we did the home game at Wembley, what was it, two years ago? And then the away game was at Spurs against the Bills. It's so interesting because the two stadiums are actually quite different. From my experience going to both of those games, they both bring a different flavour. I feel like with Wembley, you've got that walking up, seeing the archers, you're instantly hit with the goosebumps, like... wow, it's Wembley. And then with Spurs, you've kind of got that. So I think maybe perhaps just because you're closer, it's a bit like of an intimate feel, I would say. And yeah, two different flavours, but two home games, very unique.
What are the potential opponents for the Jaguars' London games?
I can't think of like, it'd be interesting to see like outside of even the Jags and hosting these two games, what was the last team that hosted two home games in any sport in two different stadiums outside of the city that they're based.
That's an awesome quiz question. That is a good quiz question.
Nobody who's AI, and I would love to hear some of the answers. If anyone can think, I'm sure it's going to be some obscure Brazilian football team that had to do this in some rounds. But that is a great, that's a great pub quiz question.
