Brandon Wenerd: BroBible, Phish, creating content, and how to bet on yourself and win

Brandon Wenerd is an Internet OG who's worn every hat in the content game. Back in 2008 he helped jumpstart BroBible, a media empire that quickly developed a huge audience and was acquired just a few years later by UPROXX, only to be re-acquired by most of the brand's original partners in 2018. He remains the publisher and face of the brand today. Ryan's had the pleasure of working with Brandon at several checkpoints along that journey, including the last four years with BroBible being a client of Pennant Digital. Brandon joined LOG OFF to discuss his Internet journey: from early beginnings on Phish message boards and publishing travel content, to helping research and compile a Hunter S. Thompson book with the legendary gonzo journalist's widow, to doing everything on the BroBible ride: write about sports and culture, interview compelling subjects, record engaging podcasts, and become an adventure-seeking on-camera influencer. Oh, and he makes killer sales decks and lands huge brand deals! This episode is the story of what he's learned along the way.
