In September 2023, Schaub and Callen publicly stated that Kast Media and its CEO Colin Thomson owed their production company $1.5-1.6 million dollars. Similar claims were made by [[Jim Cornette]] followed by [[Theo Von]], [[Jason Ellis (radio host)|Jason Ellis]], [[Whitney Cummings]], and Alyx Weiss, who stated they were owed money by Kast Media, including several six-figure and seven-figure shortages. This was in the process of an acquisition of Kast Media by [[PodcastOne]], where Thomson was offering creators partial reimbursement combined with stock options. Amid the news, LiveOne and PodcastOne stock dropped considerably and the company no longer planned to officially hire Thomson. LiveOne took out a [[Interest rate|high-interest]] loan to pay Schaub, but did not compensate other creators.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-07-24 |title=Kast Media accused of "not paying creators" |url=https://podnews.net/update/kast-media-payouts |access-date=2024-01-01 |website=podnews.net |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Brooks |first=Dave |date=2023-09-09 |title=PodcastOne Public Listing Collides With Viral Takedown Video From Comedian Theo Von |url=https://www.billboard.com/business/streaming/podcastone-ipo-theo-von-kast-media-1235410014/ |access-date=2024-01-01 |magazine=Billboard |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Carman |first=Ashley |date=2023-09-14 |title=A Fight Over Missing Ad Money Roils the Podcast Industry |language=en |work=Bloomberg.com |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2023-09-14/kast-media-and-podcastone-face-growing-fight-with-angered-creators |access-date=2024-01-01}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Khalid |first=Amrita |date=2023-09-14 |title=Why everyone in the podcast world is mad at Kast Media's Colin Thomson |url=https://www.theverge.com/2023/9/14/23874141/podcast-kast-media-colin-thomson-whitney-cummings-theo-von-one |access-date=2024-01-01 |website=The Verge |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Brooks |first=Dave |date=2023-09-28 |title=PodcastOne Paid Brendan Schaub $1.6M, While Other Kast Podcasters Were Asked to Accept Pay Cuts |url=https://www.billboard.com/pro/podcastone-paid-brendan-schaub-but-other-kast-creators-stiffed/ |access-date=2024-01-01 |magazine=Billboard |language=en-US}}</ref>

Brendan Peter Schaub (born March 18, 1983) is an American podcast host, former professional mixed martial artist, and stand-up comedian.[2] He is the host of The Fighter and the Kid podcast, the Below the Belt with Brendan Schaub podcast, and co-host of the Golden Hour podcast, along with fellow comedians Chris D'Elia and Erik Griffin.[3] After signing with Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in 2009 to compete on The Ultimate Fighter, he fought for the company until 2014. He officially retired from mixed martial arts (MMA) in 2015. Since 2015, Schaub has been performing stand-up comedy, initially as a duo act with comedian Bryan Callen, but more recently as a solo comedian. Schaub released his debut comedy special titled You'd Be Surprised in 2019 followed by his second special, The Gringo Papi in 2022.[4]

Early life and education

Schaub was born and raised in Aurora, Colorado, to an English mother Debra and an American father Peter Schaub.[5] He is of German, Italian, and English descent.[6] His father is a second-degree black belt in taekwondo.[7] While at Overland High School, Schaub lettered two years in varsity lacrosse and one year in varsity American football. He received no college athletic scholarship offers, but he tried out for both the football team and lacrosse team at Whittier College and was accepted to both. Prior to his junior year, he transferred to the University of Colorado to play football full-time where he redshirted his first season.[8] Following college, Schaub went undrafted in the 2006 NFL draft but would sign with the Arena Football League's Utah Blaze, before being released in November 2006 without making the roster.[9] He was once more signed to the Blaze in February 2007 but waived two days later.[10][11] Schaub then retired from the sport in 2007.

Mixed martial arts career

Early career

After retiring from football, Schaub returned to Colorado where he began training in boxing and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. After only six months of training in boxing, Schaub competed in amateur boxing and won the Colorado novice-division Golden Gloves heavyweight title. Schaub later began training at High Altitude Martial Arts located in Aurora and the Grudge Training Center in Arvada, where he met UFC heavyweight contender Shane Carwin. The two became friends as well as training partners.[12] After this, he began his professional career in mixed martial arts (MMA), mainly competing in Colorado. Schaub started his career with a 4–0 record and won the heavyweight title for the Ring of Fire organization.

Ultimate Fighting Championship

The Ultimate Fighter

In 2009, Schaub signed with Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) to compete on the tenth season of The Ultimate Fighter. Schaub was the number two pick for coach Rashad.[13] In his first fight on the show, he faced Demico Rogers, defeating him via first round submission with an anaconda choke to move onto the quarter-finals.

In the quarter-finals, Schaub won his fight by KO (punch) in the second round against Jon Madsen.

In the semi-finals, Schaub defeated Marcus Jones via KO (punches) in the first round.

After, it was announced Johnson tested positive for elevated testosterone in a post-fight drug test.[24]

Schaub was expected to face Matt Mitrione on July 27, 2013, at UFC on Fox 8.[25] However, in mid-July, Mitrione pulled out of the bout citing an injury and Schaub was pulled from the event as well.[26] The bout eventually took place on September 21, 2013, at UFC 165.[27] Schaub defeated Mitrione in the first round via D'Arce choke.

Schaub fought returning former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski at UFC 174 on June 14, 2014,[28][29] with Arlovski winning via split decision.

On December 6, 2014, at UFC 181, Schaub lost via TKO (punches) in the first round to Travis Browne.[30] Days after the fight, Schaub's friend and UFC commentator Joe Rogan had a joint podcast with Schaub and Bryan Callen where Rogan and Callen advised Schaub to retire from MMA and pursue a career in comedy.[31][32]

On October 10, 2015, Schaub was a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast and announced his retirement from MMA.[33][34][35]

Entertainment career

Podcasting

In 2013, Schaub and Bryan Callen started their podcast titled The Fighter and the Kid. The shows were produced by FOX network until a contract dispute in 2016. They then left the network and began producing the podcast themselves. Schaub and Callen also began touring to perform shows that were a mix between a live podcast and duo stand-up comedy act.[37]

In December 2016, Schaub launched a solo podcast, titled Big Brown Breakdown.[38] The podcast focuses on topics related to combat sports, mainly mixed martial arts.[39]

On the January 30 episode of Big Brown Breakdown, Schaub generated controversy when he suggested that the UFC On Fox panel of presenters had been selected based on race for the sake of diversity. "Sometimes you look at UFC Tonight and you're like, 'Alright, is that the best panel possible? Or are you just trying to check off the boxes?'" Schaub questioned. "We get it, UFC Tonight FOX, you're not racist. We get it, you have an all-black panel. We get it. Woah, we get it. We get it, man."[40]

In February 2018, Schaub partnered with Showtime to rebrand his solo podcast to the name "BELOW THE BELT with Brendan Schaub". They also released a web show of the same name where Schaub would serve as the host.[41]

On December 21, 2018, Schaub and Theo Von announced the creation of a new podcast titled "King and the Sting". On January 13, 2022, Schaub and Von added Chris D'Elia to the podcast, renaming it to "King and the Sting and Wing".[42]

On November 4, 2022, "King and the Sting and Wing" was officially renamed "The Golden Hour", with Erik Griffin replacing Theo Von.[43]

In September 2023, Schaub and Callen publicly stated that Kast Media and its CEO Colin Thomson owed their production company $1.5-1.6 million dollars. Similar claims were made by Jim Cornette followed by Theo Von, Jason Ellis, Whitney Cummings, and Alyx Weiss, who stated they were owed money by Kast Media, including several six-figure and seven-figure shortages. This was in the process of an acquisition of Kast Media by PodcastOne, where Thomson was offering creators partial reimbursement combined with stock options. Amid the news, LiveOne and PodcastOne stock dropped considerably and the company no longer planned to officially hire Thomson. LiveOne took out a high-interest loan to pay Schaub, but did not compensate other creators.[44][45][46][47][48]

Television and film

In 2016, Schaub and Callen released a sketch comedy series on iTunes titled The Fighter and the Kid 3D.[54]

Schaub made his feature film debut in the 2016 movie Range 15.[55]

In 2015, Schaub appeared on the television series MythBusters to help test a myth related to video games.[56]

In 2017, Schaub was brought on by Showtime for commentary and analysis surrounding the Mayweather/McGregor boxing match alongside Mauro Ranallo, Paulie Malignaggi, and Brian Custer[57][58]

In 2018, Schaub began working for E! Entertainment news co-hosting the after-shows of the Golden Globes, Academy Awards, Emmy Awards, People's Choice Awards, and Grammy Awards.[59] Also in 2018, Schaub began serving as a panelist for the television show Bravo's Play-By-Play on Bravo network.[citation needed] Schaub made his second feature film appearance in the 2020 David Ayer movie The Tax Collector.

Endorsements

Other ventures
