    Ep. 15 - Capt. Chip Michalove on catching GREAT WHITE Sharks, De'Aaron Fox DM'ing his girl, Shark fishing with Rihanna and Tom Brady, Kentucky Basketball, Craziest charter stories - JUGGERNAUT Podcast

    Captain Chip Michalove is a living legend. He's a true pioneer in the fishing world who has caught more Great White Sharks on rod and reel than anyone else in human history. If you've ever seen Jaws and thought it looked crazy, Chip does that in real life and there are no special effects. Chip took us through his journey from being a kid from Kentucky and becoming hooked on shark fishing, all the way to becoming a captain and making a living doing what he loved. His story really took an exponentially wild turn when he set out to be the first person to regularly catch Great Whites on rod and reel in the Atlantic Ocean. Like finding a needle in an ocean sized haystack, he tried EVERYTHING until he struck gold. One winter day he hooked into a 1,000+ lb. Great White and has been the go-to guy for catching them ever since. His story is incredible and we talked for so long, we had to split it into 2 parts! This is Part 1 and next week we will be releasing the rest of it.

    Beau Allen is an American renaissance man. When he's not winning the Super Bowl over Tom Brady as a nose tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles, he might be finishing his degree in HR, playing pickleball, traveling the globe, filming with Its Always Funny In Philadelphia, or maybe even podcasting on his show Fax And The King. The Butter King, as he is known, hails from Minnetonka, Minnesota and played college football at Wisconsin. He also grew up a Packers fan so some Minnesotans might question whether he has ever even listened to Prince or been to a lake, but nonetheless he was drafted into the NFL by Chip Kelly and made the Eagles where he ended up winning a Super Bowl. After becoming a local hero to Philadelphians everywhere despite a "liking his own tweets" scandal, he signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and then in 2020 with the New England Patriots in an effort to help the franchise replace the greatness vacuum left by Tom Brady.

    Chris Gillette aka Gatorboys Chris is one of the most passionate wildlife experts you can find and an animal advocate that has been working with the wildest animals in the world for a LONG time. He has done it all from handling extremely venomous snakes to hand feeding GIANT crocodilians that most people would be terrified to even stand next to. He runs gator tours in Homestead, Florida giving people wildlife experiences that they might not ever get the chance to have otherwise. One of his favorite gators, Casper, even responds to his commands and knows his own name. The work he has done with the gator he works with every day is astonishing and has brought a new perspective to human and alligator interactions. He has shown that while they are still capable of being very dangerous animals due to their extreme strength and lightning fast striking capabilities, they are not monsters but rather beautiful creatures that are heavily misunderstood by a large portion of the public. On top of his work with wildlife, he has grown his Youtube channel, Florida's Wildest, to over 500,000 followers. Rosie Moore is a geoscientist and wildlife expert that has seen some of the craziest things you can imagine. She grew up in Missouri and moved to Florida get a degree studying Sharks, but ended up finding herself interacting with just about every different type of animal in between on the way there. From climbing in trees and studying thermoregulation in freshly hatched Wood Storks to opening 18 foot Burmese Pythons stuffed with entire Alligators, she has done it all. While working at a Herpetology lab, she videoed an intact American Alligator inside of an invasive Python and went insanely viral overnight. This lead to appearances on CNN, FOX News, Daily Mail, and just about every single publication on the internet across the entire globe. Since achieving this level of attention and gaining a huge platform, she is focusing on growing the ability for women to follow their passions in science and specifically herpetology and sharks. She appeared on this year's Shark Week on Discovery and is getting more followers and views by the day.

    Caveman Rob Alleva from History Channel's KINGS OF PAIN is a guy who has been bit by more animals than maybe anybody on Earth. If you can think of a venom, odds are he has has it bitten or stung into him in a not-so-pleasant manner. Rob and his co-host Adam Thorn took it upon themselves to update a pain index created decades ago in the most accurate way possible - by testing out each and every painful affliction themselves one by one. They traveled the world getting stung, bitten, poked by venomous barbs, and even letting a 16 foot Reticulated Python bite the crap out of them which ended up in heavy longterm damage to their arms. Rob also has been bitten by a Southern Pacific Rattlesnake and almost lost his life because of it.
