Summary

UFC legend Chad Mendes joins the podcast today. Throughout Chad’s UFC career he has been extremely vocal about his passion for hunting and fishing, so I naturally I am a big fan. He had me as a lifetime fan when I heard his tag line “The People’s Champ, Straight outta Deer Camp”. Chad Belding is Mendes’ business partner and he also joins the podcast today. Belding has a fascinating story of starting the brand BANDED and it’s rise to success following the lead of a couple of UFC brands. Mendes gives us his story of how he got started in the UFC, and what he has been pursuing lately. He just recently was on the Joe Rogan podcast to talk about a few of his businesses that he plays a huge role in, including a meat company, spice company, Finz and Featherz Guides, Peak meals, and more. Chad also shared news of his RETURN to the ring in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championships.
