Brendan Schaub
Dad, Podcaster, V8 Enthusiast, and Former UFC Heavyweight
Brendan, a Denver, Colorado native, started sports as young kid. Football was his passion since he was 6 yrs old which lead him to play at the University of Colorado and have a shot in the NFL with the Buffalo Bills. Once his dreams of playing professional football ended he transitioned into mixed martial arts. Two years after training in MMA, Brendan got his big shot on the Ultimate Fighter season 10 reality show where he was a season finalist and earned his contract for the UFC. During his time in the UFC Brendan was ranked in the top 10 in the heavyweight division and fought some of the biggest names in the world.
After retiring from the UFC Brendan found podcasting, launching the Fighter and the Kid podcast over 12 years ago, which also lead to several other successful podcasts and eventually lead to his own podcast network “ThicccBoy studios”. An avid “car guy” Brendan recently launched a new brand “Drive Fast All Gas” which entails a new show as well as a truck giveaway.
If you ask Brendan what he’s most proud of without hesitation it’s his family. Brendan and his wife, Joanna, have three kids. Two boys and a baby girl.
