Kickin’ It by the Fire

Canceled Flights, Wrong Doors, AI Madness & Full Send Chaos

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2559690/fan_mail/new] Michael, Paul, and Brady catch up after a week that somehow included a Florida show, a Texas ad shoot, a birthday trip, a canceled flight, a five hour panic drive to North Carolina, and Michael accidentally trying to get into the wrong Airbnb before realizing he was three minutes away from the right one. The guys get into the nightmare that flying has become, why driving sometimes feels safer than dealing with airports, how expensive everything has gotten, and how much life has changed for their generation. From AI getting a little too real, to cast iron cooking, beef tallow, grounding, kids, family, work, and trying to keep up with a world that keeps moving faster, this episode is all over the place in the most honest way. It is funny, chaotic, and real. Just three guys catching up, telling stories, and talking through the madness of life right now.

It’s unpredictable, hilarious, thought provoking, and feels like being right there in the circle while the night keeps getting later and the conversations keep getting crazier. Same fire. Same chaos. Even wilder conversations. Here we go again.

Offstage With Dan "Hendo" Henderson

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2559690/fan_mail/new] In this episode of Offstage America, Michael Ray sits down with UFC and Pride legend Dan Henderson at Hendo’s Barrel House in Temecula for a raw, unfiltered conversation about the journey from small-town wrestling to the global stage. Henderson breaks down his path to the Olympics, the grind it took to get there, and how that foundation carried him into the early days of mixed martial arts where fights were unpredictable and survival meant adapting fast. From competing in Russia during political chaos to fighting multiple times in one night, he shares stories that define what toughness really looks like. They also dive into the evolution of MMA, the explosion of the sport into the mainstream, and what it took to stay competitive across decades at the highest level. Beyond fighting, Henderson opens up about life after the cage and building Hendo’s Barrel House into something bigger than just a business. This episode is about discipline, resilience, and what it takes to keep showing up when the odds are stacked against you.

Offstage With Tanner Usrey & Joell Cooley

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2559690/fan_mail/new] This episode of Offstage America comes straight from the table at Cadillac Creek Outfitters — four guys, a few drinks in, and absolutely no plan to keep it on the rails. Michael Ray and Paul sit down with rising artists and songwriters Tanner Usrey and Joel Cooley after a full day in the blind, and it turns into exactly what you’d expect — stories, chaos, music talk, and a whole lot of shit talking. They get into how Tanner built his career from the ground up, grinding through Texas and figuring it out the hard way, and how Joel is just getting started — balancing songwriting, touring, and now caddying for John Daly while chasing his shot in music. The conversation jumps everywhere — first tours, playing for nobody, living out of vans, how the industry’s changed, and why there’s no single path anymore. One minute it’s real insight into what it takes to make it, the next it’s complete nonsense about donuts, bad decisions, and whatever else comes to mind. At the core of it, though, it’s about the grind — betting on yourself, figuring it out as you go, and staying in it long enough for something to hit.
