Our Editor's Take

The Fighter & The Kid podcast grew out of the friendship between an MMA fighter and an actor/comedian. Brendan Schaub and Bryan Callen riff on everything from MMA to surviving snake bites.

Schaub is a former UFC fighter and standup comedian. He has been doing The Fighter & The Kid podcast since 2013. Callen is the regular guest cohost as well as a comedian and actor. He was one of the original cast members of MADtv. Callen played Coach Mellor on The Goldbergs. He has guest-starred on numerous TV comedies and dramas.

Schaub and Callen have discussed surviving prison and whether they would date a woman with a prison record. They decided it would depend on what the woman did to put her behind bars. Episodes of The Fighter & The Kid have big-name guests from entertainment and MMA. One episode featured Will Compton and Taylor Lewan. They do the Barstool Sports podcast Bussin' With The Boys. Lewan discussed his time in Las Vegas high-stakes gambling with UFC head Dana White. At one point, Lewan was down $300,000.

Glazer also talked about the time he introduced Guy Fieri to Sylvester Stallone. Actor and comedian Bill Bellamy discussed starring in Any Given Sunday.
