Brandon Walker: From Small Town Journalist to Barstool Sports Star - Behind the Blog
Vložit

- When you think about it, he’s kind of the physical embodiment of what is happening at Barstool. A meteoric rise based on a fuck ton of luck followed up by a whole lot of charisma and hard work. That’s the formula. Sprinkle in some legislation legalizing gambling, Grudge Dave pulling a petty stunt, and 6 feet 5 inches of country with a brain chock full of sports knowledge and you have a recipe for the newest star at Barstool Sports.
From his youth as a (basically) only child raised only by his mother, to his time at local newspapers and blogs down south, to his big break where he completely changed his life and his family member’s lives to come to New York. After hearing about his upbringing, his professional background, his marriage, his education, and his viewpoint on fatherhood, life, and success, I can promise you nobody will ever call Brandon Walker a M*ron From M*ssissippi ever again.
A truly fascinating sit down with a man who knew his big break was a publicity stunt, but one who was hell bent on making sure it grew to be much more than that. A great sports writer, but an even better husband, father and friend to have here at Barstool HQ. Watch Behind the Blog and make sure you catch Brandon on Walk The Line, Unnecessary Roughness, Picks Central, and The Yak.

My favorite character in this Barstool reality show
Im only 8 min in and 1. who ever can dislike this is out of thier mind. 2. It's beautiful to hear him talk about how down and good of a wife he has and that they support each other in not only life but work and the choices within that! 3. I mean shit im only 8 min in and Fuck yeah this is why I love this company!!!!
I got to the 7:12 second mark and wanted to comment something similar!
Everyone needs a spouse like Mrs. Walker
KFC you crushed this interview. I learned something about you from this. Even though you’re an OG Barstool you sit back and eye people still, and I think it comes from how much you appreciate and love this company. B Walk good on you too man
The real hero in Brandon's story is clearly his wife. Give her a podcast
Brandon F'in Walker - the GOAT
That video with Marty and Brandon in Mississippi was hilarious 😂
Brandon is amazing. Big get for the boys
@KFC Radio. These are great 👍🏻 be super to see more kind of life stories/behind the scenes kind of thing. Keep up the great work man. Thanks
Thanks for watchin Chris! We’ll definitely be doing more in the upcoming months!
This is a great interview, but its a reupload right? I've seen this before.
How about a behind the blog Frank the Tank
That’d be a great one
This one would be so Fucking good!!! Get on it!!
@@KFCRadio yes please
We need a behind the blog on Marty Mush as well! Donnie would be awesome too
good shit Kevin
Been over a year since KFC had good content...this was a 9.7
This same episode was posted on the barstool account 10 months ago. So...
Lil sas behind the blog
Its hard to book time with the King of New York himself. We’ll try
@@KFCRadio all you gotta do is hide out in that room he films tik toks in and you’re set
@@KFCRadio ehhh we don’t want him
Did you do a Donnie does behind the blog yet?? That would be killer!!
I have always loved to chirp BFW since I found him super annoying but after this interview, I have come to the light. Killer family man
Can't wait for the Frank the Tank behind the blog
where the fuck is that vhs tape! i gotta see that, love royal rumble
"It's getting bigger" - Is he talking about his head?
Brandon’s the man
I really thought that devlin thing was a skit, didn’t know Brandon was actually that emotional
Brandon's wife is a saint
I may be wrong but isn't this something that has been put out already??? If I'm crazy I'm sorry I just think I saw it
Several of the behind the blogs were spread out across different locations (barstool gold, different youtubes, etc). Over the past few months we've been rereleasing those here to get them all in one location along with the new episodes.
Caleb would be a no brainer also maybe a behind the camera person like honk himself . Frankie, nick, Marty, glenny, tank, pretty much anyone would be good make 66 episodes fuck it
@@KFCRadio thanks. I guess I saw it on gold.
@@chummy22 hank, frankie , and caleb. Obviously everyone but those 3!
I think your right, I remember seeing it a month ago. I thought it was worth watching again, BFW is awesome and KFC puts on a good interview.
Brandon is the most underrated employee at barstool
@kfc I use to hate you and Leave mean comments on your Instagram, thru the past couple weeks you have completely changed my stance on you!
Wow BW’s wife is incredible
When are we going to get an hour long sit down with Mush? Does his life story even take that long? Whatever it is it will be funny.
Mush has had a very interesting life. We’ll have to have him soon
The alive toad conclusively introduce because ocean bacteriologically realise apropos a curly balance. spotted, opposite rooster
Wouldn’t call him a star
This didn’t age very well 😂
