Right? Then Chris Middleton next to him, which is almost the same, who are these high quality character folks who happen to be all stars in skill level. Right now, its very hard to figure out and understand where its going, because this is the wild West. and other sports leagues begin to outline their plans for comebacks in the age of social distancing, weekend warriors like Feigin are coping with basketball-shaped voids in their lives. Michael Red: After knowing you for the last six years, personally, two qualities stand out: Extremely funny and extremely generous. We closed our restaurants down. How big a deal it is to renovate downtown, and how big we can become and what a billboard the Milwaukee Bucks should be for Wisconsin around the world. Thats the biggest change is the regional sports networks have changed dramatically. So, for all the listeners, I played in Milwaukee for 11 years over a decade and had an incredible time there. Peter: Yeah, it was incredible. And that, small short less than a year instance kind of just opened my eyes to like, "Oh, my God. But, you want to be in a place where people care about you? They were trying to think of something that would be like. Peter: I think when the opportunity came and we thought it was such a good idea, we were aiming an incredible. We had Chris Middleton and Giannis involved in it kind of conceptually, and really fun conversations with Giannis brother Costas had just won for the Lakers the year before. Does he pass enough? Just what you said is like were always coming in this balance of how do we, we want Giannis to represent the Bucks brand. But I think, those are the things that like, yes, you can always pay people. Post-acquisition were in an interesting time in life where my dad had been ill for a while and there was no way I was going to move to Milwaukee or take, even have the prospect of taking a job because I wanted to stay in New York and be with my father. Youre going to have to work your butt off because its work. Peter Feigin, president of the National Basketball Association's Milwaukee Bucks and Fiserv Forum since 2014, graduated from Franklin & Marshall in 1992 as an American studies major. Like the Kees, you're going to hopefully be doing something you love with people you love and working your butt off, but there are expectations. And it's kind of as an adult got me to a place where I desperately want our youth to get exposed to things they wouldn't normally get exposed to because that's how they learn what's out there. How could we reduce our costs immediately knowing that we weren't operating? So, I can't be too vocal, because if the owners knew how valuable it was that, I conceptually run a retail operation with thousands of pieces of apparel. But talk about that nuance and being in leaders on the social injustice play. Peter Feigin: Yeah, I don't know if it's still risk. How exhausting was the bubble? Well, you know about the ice cream truck. Peter: Which like, by the way, might evolve to 20%, 30% of an arena at some point. We were sitting brainstorming like, how do we keep people employed? Either it came from Khris Middleton or Jack [crosstalk 00:02:21]. Whether it's police reform, whether it's incarceration, whether it's education, whether it's food desert. Maybe I'm biased, but knowing you and seeing what you've done with the Bucks. How do we sit here and I think like, how could the Millwaukee Bucks not be, not Americas team, but Globals team. I'm so proud of him and the team and the roster. That everybody understands their benefits for their health insurance, that we're getting psychological health, that we're feeding people in the community, that we are on top of not just marching for social justice, but that we're dealing with, police reform, that we're resourcing our players. Youre the ultimate insider. I know you love gear more than anybody. Whether youre building an arena, whether youre building infrastructure or a team, whether youre dealing with the same problems, it is really powerful to end up with, when you come up with conflict and problems or you need solutions, or you need smart brains to be able to pick up the phone with 5, 10 like-minded people who are dealing with the same stuff. And I love your brother. But for the first time since 1992, the game has been shelved indefinitely because of the coronavirus pandemic. Michael Red: It's been wonderful to watch. Then it would move the franchise to Las Vegas or Seattle. Over the years, The Run has become an indispensable part of the players weekend routines and a socioeconomic hodgepodge. So, Giannis and I have an interesting relationship and sometimes I need him, sometimes he needs me. Peter Feigin: Michael, like I said, anytime, anywhere. And what sort of plan could we have when there was some sort of light at the end of the tunnel to kind of ramp back up in a big way. The future for the Bucks, championship, championship, championship, and obviously getting fans back at the games. Why shouldn't we resemble the city we work and live in, instead of kind of what national things are? And lo and behold, kind of five, six years later, we've kind of accelerated it. Peter Feigin: I think building the relationship with Mark, probably through looking at other purchase opportunities and kind of talking through it. Players, for 50 nights a year, land at 1:00 or 2:00 in the morning to get home and kind of do what the time balance is. We've got one of the global sports stars in the world. Youre physically building an arena, a district, a template for success. "I got to tell you the enthusiasm Peter has brought to the city has been brought right back. He said it. And a diverse community gives us diverse thought, gives us better outcomes. Whats going on with technology whats going on, even with your experience in the arena. He captained. We're talking about localizing all of our social, so in every language you can imagine to absorb it from us, so we can tell the story. A lot of fun. So, we see this great opportunity to lead by example and then to almost market and promote it as this should be more the norm than not the norm in a big way. We call it volundeering. Peter Feigin: That this was a year you couldn't even imagine. Through Jan. 15, his PER of 29.82 was second in the league behind James Harden and just ahead of LeBron James and Stephen Curry. We thought we were a progressive, pretty forward thinking organization. This is probably the best hour of the week. Peter: Yeah. White House Chair of My Brother's Keeper Joined to Applaud Nationwide Progress. Anyone can read what you share. Hes with us today. The NBA is 80% of the players are African American, in such a big way. And they were kind of stuck at the last minute deep in the summer. What people never tell you about the rings, its not just the 20 rings for the players and the coach and the owners. The first game goes to 9 points, and every game after that goes to 7. That was, Peter: That was it. We have large sections that you never think about 10 years ago that people hang out at a bar, never have a seat, never, standing room only. "Why would we wait till tomorrow when we can get it done today?" You know what I mean? I've known him from a rookie to where he is now and Khris obviously. "Peter has completely re-imagined the Milwaukee Bucks business operation and grown in sales, ticket revenue, retail and global recognition which is very important," Colbert explained. I think one of the things Jason of Beverly Hills, who was the designer and the manufacturer did, we just had this awesome element that the top of the ring came off and became a pendant on your, that you could actually wear as a necklace. And Peter, now is the President of the Milwaukee Bucks and has done an incredible job over the years with the Bucks since he's landed in Milwaukee. Retired Miller Brewing Executive and past Crystal Living Legend Award Winner Virgil Colbert returned to Milwaukee for the event. Feigin is in charge of divvying up the five-man teams at the start of the session and typically includes himself on the strongest squad. Michael Red: In this episode, we talk about Peter's incredible career accomplishments at major brands. Hows Warren Buffett in person as, how exactly? If you have a partner in life, they'd better be a teammate. When Carter Pewterschmidt stops by in "Fresh Heir" to announce that he has made Chris Griffin the sole heir to the Pewterschmidt fortune, the family hears a crash. As you get older, its just harder to keep up with everybody., Christopher dAmboise, a former principal dancer, Adam Keefe, a former N.B.A. We have the DNA and the strength and this caliber of championship caliber team to really be attractive to the world. Because, I mean, you lived here for 11 years and I guarantee you, as great as everybody was, they still thought of you as a Columbus, Ohio guy. His friends, while the games are suspended, are trying to stay as prepared as possible. That is an interesting statement. You and I go back since you came back to the Bucks or since you came to the Bucks and you guys have been incredible to me over the years since you've been in a position in Milwaukee and really grateful of our friendship over the years and how the organization has welcomed me back to the organization. Marc Lasry, the co-owner of the Milwaukee Bucks, has scaled back his play in recent years. He's bigger, Giannis is even outside of the country than he is inside of it. "Of course, you have Greece, but Asia is mesmerized by Giannis. I encourage it, and selfishly, its a fun way to network and deal with people. It all matters what state youre in and whats going on with the legislation. Peter Feigin: So, I mean, this is talk about, "You never know what's going to happen and where." Its hundreds of rings. Peter Feigin: These are all massive, huge, systematic problems for generations that we've got to chip away from every day. Feigin distributed the shirts in February to The Runs regulars during a weekend retreat to Milwaukee, where his twin brother, Peter, works as the president of the Bucks. You serve as like a mentor to them as well. And my brother said, "Oh, my God. We are brand marketing sales people. As you said, because of your mom and dads background, and because you had some of the rock stars of industry, as you say, Masters of the Universe, as your partners, you got to meld your experiences, your parents coaching, and then the rock stars came and they were also, you got a perfect soup of business experience to create this amazing success story. We've made it intimate with a 17,500-person crowd. We've developed about 75% of it and people are living here, working here, and playing. Go to the Cluckery. People can find it at, I saw the website, it was Cluckery, cluckery.com, right? You miss making a game-winning shot. Peter: Well, I always default to the Cluckery. I will say one of the big advantages of the national basketball association is it truly is a collaborative, like on the court we are competitive. Talk about your organization, community involvement, and the impacts that you get to make both positive and otherwise. If you've been that lucky and you've been that blessed then you've got to share. Theres some great things. And I think we find it like it's a responsibility where we can set the example and we can innovate and then we can shout it from the mountaintops. Lee, 50, has worked to keep in shape by doing yoga and shooting hoops in his backyard. Feigin, who had held executive positions at Madison Square Garden, Marquis Jet Partners and NetJets, packed up his New York home and went to Milwaukee in 2014. His brother and Lee were just as excited. That was one of these monumental, incredible, awesome times to get it done. Theyre going to look at that ring forever and remember that. Because I hadnt worked in, Id worked in New York city. Growing up, you used to hang out, go to the garden and you were a Knicks fan or Rangers fan and Yankees or Mets. Founders of the Black Inventors Gallery, Peggy Hardy and Synovia Moss, spearheaded the display - a reminder of the spirit of innovation and vision Peter Feigin needed to champion a new arena for the Milwaukee Bucks. My wife is like, What are you doing? I dont know what Im doing!. -- Follow Jeff Eisenband on Twitter @JeffEisenband. Peter: My wifes a native New Yorker. Its not the right environment for everybody. And I think with time, you certainly kind of can take that. John: Unbelievable. But that kind of thing. I think thats like fair. You can follow Peter on Twitter at PFeigin. Kind of on a team, if you surround yourself with great players, you can figure out a way to win. Peter Feigin: And I think it's all how you how you go at it. It's like how do we, between us, like as you know. What the heck do we do, like everybody else? Peter Feigin readily admits that, as president of the Milwaukee Bucks, he lives in the fantasy world of professional sports. And I think of it, Michael, to answer the second part, it's like we thought we were woke. Its incredible and not many people get to do it, lets be honest, when you get to actually live your dream and go to the top. Peter: We took the lumps and then, yeah, I had my dream job when I was in my mid-20s as in Madison Square Garden like running marketing for the New York Knicks and I thought I could have died and gone to heaven and thats, I lived breathed in the Knicks basketball and Ranger hockey, it was the greatest. What you do is you submarine the entire process into yourself. Thank you. Just go beyond the scoreboard and championships that you guys get to make in your community, that you are proud of, Peter. He's the president of the Milwaukee Bucks and he's a native New Yorker. Michael Red: Is there a pivotal moment that you can think of, even as a teenager or as a young kid, that you'd bet on yourself in a major, major way? Last year, he was sidelined for several months while he recovered from an eye injury he had sustained in The Run. You miss falling on the ground, Dan Feigin said. And that's before you're worried about what a health scare is. Let that person speak. But the overarching is how do we maintain kind of championship caliber excellence, like across the business and across the team. John: Welcome to another edition of the impact podcast. Just shut up for 15 seconds. One was to have the keys to the gym and the other was to have the keys to the gear closet to get it done. More recently, Tom Kearns, a mental health counselor and one of The Runs longtime staples, has been bringing his 12-year-old daughter, Sophia, so she can shoot hoops on the side with Dan Feigins 12-year-old daughter, Dylan. Everythings compounded we happen to have picked Giannis in a draft, like in, as the 16th pick. The goal off the court is we want a new arena. John: Thats so true. Michael Red: That's exciting, man. Michael Red: Well, I love you back. This was just the very beginning, the first thought was, "Oh, boy. These are special socks, so you bring me back a pair of socks. Peter: Thats great, thats one of the only times that questions been asked. This is the Impact Podcast.
