    Apr 15 2026
    The kick is up, and the kick is... good afternoon, sports fans! In this thrilling episode of the Superfan Diaries, we are traveling deep into the heart of Waco, Texas, to unmask the legendary Baylor University superfan known simply as "T-Rex." Travis Carver isn't just famous for prowling the Big 12 sidelines in outrageous dinosaur suits; he’s a game-day hero who has single-handedly engineered a system to distribute thousands of free Baylor football and basketball tickets to the local community. But how exactly does a guy who didn't even graduate from Baylor become an Honorary Alumni, and why did he happily skip a family wedding just to claim the prize? You'll have to tune in to uncover the jaw-dropping extremes of his die-hard college sports fandom—including the unbelievable, highly calculated secret behind the exact birth month of his first child that proves just how far one man will go to ensure he never misses a single kickoff. If you want to know what it truly means to represent Baylor Nation and yell "Sic 'em," hit play right now, because this is one wild, prehistoric ride you absolutely cannot afford to miss!

    The kick is up, and the kick is good! Welcome back to the Superfan Diaries, where today we’re unpacking the ultimate story of betting it all on the Birds. What happens when a die-hard Philadelphia Eagles superfan walks away from a thriving Philly pretzel empire to risk everything in the wild, unpredictable world of sports content creation? Meet Justin, aka "The Wingman," a premier Eagles content creator who traded ovens and dough for private, five-hour signings with Saquon Barkley, VIP courtside moments with Julius "Dr. J" Erving, and a front-row seat to Philly sports history. But how exactly does a kid who started in the preseason nosebleeds leverage a simple sports memorabilia connection into one of the fastest-growing digital brands on the internet? And what was the specific, viral split-second encounter that forced him to sell a secure business to chase an impossible dream? If you’ve ever wondered what it actually costs—financially and emotionally—to turn your ultimate sports fandom into a full-time reality, you have to hear this incredible journey of risk, loyalty, and blind faith. Hit play to find out exactly how the Wingman earned his wings, because this is one Philly underdog story you simply cannot afford to miss! Learn more about your ad choices.

In our massive, first-ever live show recorded in front of a thousand passionate guests, we sit down with two-time World Series Champion and Chicago Cubs legend, Ben Zobrist.
