The Pregame edition of Calm Down with Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson is here—your weekly warmup for all things NFL, sports broadcasting, and real-life wisdom. This episode, the ladies dive into your top questions, starting with a behind-the-scenes look at filming the Thursday Night Football intro. Charissa reveals what the shoot was like and how it’s changed from year 1 to today. They also break down their note-prep process for NFL broadcasts—how they study, organize storylines, gather player details, and stay sharp before going live on game day. If you’ve ever wondered what separates good sideline reporting from great sideline reporting, you’ll love this insight. And of course, it wouldn’t be a Pregame episode without a little life coaching. This week’s dilemma:Should I take a new job with better quality of life, or stick with the higher-paying role that comes with heavy travel and major stress? The ladies give thoughtful, honest advice you can actually use—whether you work in sports or any fast-paced career.
