Swinetime

In this episode from 2024, I talk with comedian Darren Carter during my time in Los Angeles about comedy, life, and my experience living in LA. We discuss why I left, why I don’t plan to return, and the issues we see with the city and its government.

In this episode Brian sits down with Derrick Foster, a college wrestler who turned his life around after prison, for an honest conversation about mistakes, growth, and the discipline required to earn a second chance—both in wrestling and in life.

DescriptionIn this episode, I sit down with Drew Matthews, a wrestler on my team, to talk about wrestling, training, and the mindset it takes to compete. We dig into the realities of balancing school, life, and the grind of the sport, along with lessons learned on and off the mat.It's Swine-Time

On this episode of The Swinetime Podcast, Brian Swinehart sits down with Jonathan Kowalsky—a wrestler, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, and the founder of Grappz Gloves. We talk about his journey on the mat, the discipline behind combat sports, and how he created Grappz Gloves to help athletes prevent finger injuries while training and competing. Whether you’re into wrestling, jiu-jitsu, or just love hearing stories about innovation and persistence, this episode packs a punch.

In this episode of The Brian and Kristen Podcast, we cover a little bit of everything—Kristen shares what it’s like taking classes to become a pilot, we talk about helping Mom pull off a picnic for 45 guests, and of course we dive into wrestling. From Hulk Hogan and pro wrestling stories to Brian’s journey competing in college wrestling at age 46, it’s a mix of laughs, family, and chasing big goals at any age.

In this episode, I sit down with John Bolichs, founder of Mat Return Wrestling Club, to talk about the lifelong benefits wrestling has had on us both—on and off the mat. John shares how wrestling shaped his mindset, discipline, and resilience, and why he started Mat Return Wrestling Club: to give adults a place to train, compete, and reconnect with the sport they love. Whether you’re a former wrestler, a fan of the sport, or someone curious about the lessons wrestling can teach, this conversation dives into the power of community, perseverance, and finding purpose through wrestling.
