In this heartfelt episode of Q&A with Koloff, Nikita Koloff welcomes author, stage performer, and Man Camp alumnus David Curley for a conversation about loss, faith, perseverance, and God's faithfulness through life's unexpected seasons. David shares the story behind his book, 50 Curley Q's to My Wonderful Life, inspired by the classic film It's a Wonderful Life. Through 50 personal memoir stories—some humorous, some painful, and some deeply reflective—David opens up about losing his son, his father, and his job, and how those experiences ultimately helped draw him back into a closer relationship with God. The conversation also explores David's journey to Man Camp, his experience performing a one-man stage production featuring more than 30 characters, and the lessons he has learned about embracing our imperfections and trusting God in the middle of them. David turns the tables and asks Nikita about one of his favorite wrestling memories: teaming with the legendary American Dream Dusty Rhodes. Nikita shares personal stories from their years together, including the origin of the "Russian Nightmare" name, traveling with Dusty, and a dream they once shared of owning land out West. Nikita also reflects on his own transition from professional wrestling to ministry, sharing how a life-changing encounter with Christ eventually led to Koloff for Christ Ministries, decades of ministry, and a passion for challenging and equipping men to become godly husbands, fathers, and leaders. This episode is a powerful reminder that even through loss, failure, disappointment, and unexpected detours, God never leaves us—and He can bring purpose and redemption to every chapter of our story.

In this powerful episode of It's Time to Man Up, Nikita Koloff sits down with longtime friend and Man Camp team member Matt Hitch for a conversation about faith, family, health, and transformation.

He also talks about his role leading worship at Man Camp and why helping men become stronger spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically is so important. The conversation then turns personal as Matt opens up about the unexpected loss of his father and the wake-up call it created in his own health journey. After reaching 299 pounds, Matt decided it was time to make a change. Just weeks into a new health and wellness regimen, he had already lost 20 pounds and set his sights on an ultimate goal of 215–225 pounds. Matt also shares his mother's experience with collagen and discusses the health and wellness products that have become part of their journey. This is an honest conversation about taking responsibility for your health, pursuing God, strengthening your family, and making meaningful changes one step at a time

What happens when you sell your house, sell your vehicles, buy a camper and Jeep, and set out to tour America with no fixed timeline? On this episode of Q&A with Koloff, Nikita Koloff sits down with Bucky and Renee Griffith, a couple who have chosen to step out in faith and embrace an entirely new chapter of life. After nearly 52 years of marriage, they sold virtually everything they owned and hit the road in their camper, "The Blessing." Their journey is about far more than seeing the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, the Badlands, and other incredible sights across America. Bucky and Renee believe God has called them to experience His creation, meet people along the way, and share the hope and message of Jesus wherever their journey takes them. The conversation also takes a powerful turn as Renee reflects on the transformation she witnessed in Bucky after his experience at Man Camp, while Bucky asks Nikita about his salvation, ministry journey, growing up in poverty, and the process of overcoming a poverty mentality. This episode is a powerful reminder that sometimes faith means letting go of what is comfortable, trusting God with the unknown, and taking the next step—even when you don't know exactly where the road will lead. Tune in and discover what it means to go "all in" with God, live generously, and become a blessing wherever you go.

But the conversation goes much deeper than wrestling. Robbie opens up about his faith, his transition from wrestling into ministry, and how his experience performing in front of large crowds has helped him confidently share the Gospel. Nikita and Robbie also discuss recognizing God's direction, learning to be patient when doors don't seem to be opening, stepping out in faith, and the importance of listening for God's voice rather than getting ahead of His plan. From the wrestling ring to the pulpit, this episode is an encouraging reminder that God can use every chapter of our lives—and every experience we've had—for His glory. Tune in for a powerful conversation about wrestling, faith, purpose, patience, and following where God leads.

With seven team state championships, 15 state champions, 79 state place winners, and more than 160 state tournament qualifiers, his accomplishments on the mat are impressive—but Mark explains why the greatest victories are the lives changed beyond wrestling. The conversation also highlights Mark's work with Headlock on Hunger, a unique wrestling food drive that turns competition into an opportunity to serve the community. Teams battle for the coveted Briscoe championship belt while collecting thousands of pounds of food for local families in need. Nikita and Mark also talk about Mark's family, his wife Esther's years of public service in Asheville, their sons, the challenges facing Western North Carolina, and the powerful role wrestling can play in preparing young people for life.

Clear History (2013) Director: Greg Mottola Cast: Larry David, Michael Keaton, Bill Hader, Jon HammWhat happens when you take a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode, forget to trim the fat, and stretch it into a feature film? You get Clear History — and honestly? It's still kind of great, even if it refuses to be anything other than exactly what it is.This week John and Sean dive deep into this 2013 HBO gem, requested by Patreon member Greg (host of You Can Eat That Crust and Pizza Bones), where Larry David plays a man who gives up a billion-dollar stake in an electric car company over a name, disappears to Martha's Vineyard, and plots revenge against the guy who got rich off his stupidity. You know — totally relatable stuff.In this episode, we discuss:Larry David Playing Larry David (Again) — The guys break down why this movie is essentially an uncut Curb episode with a different character name slapped on it. Is that a bad thing? Is that a great thing? The answer is: yes, and also both.They Didn't Trim the Fat — A deep dive into what separates a tight 40-minute Curb episode from a 100-minute movie that wanders into dead spots. Spoiler: it's editing discipline, and this movie didn't have enough of it.Joe Stumpo Steals the Whole Damn Movie — Michael Keaton shows up playing the town drunk on Martha's Vineyard and absolutely runs off with every scene he's in. Sean makes the case that Keaton is the unsung MVP of this entire production, and it's hard to argue with him."I Know There Aren't Any Women That Have It" — The guys land on the single funniest line in the movie, a throwaway bit about old bald guy fetishes and prison demographics that somehow perfectly encapsulates everything Larry David is as a comedian.We Also Talked About:WWE Legends: Legion of Doom (Amazon) (Biography Special) — Sean watched the documentary on Hawk and Animal, and it goes places. Specifically: a deeply emotional story about a penlight on a fishing boat that Nikita Koloff somehow turned into a religious experience. You have to hear it to believe it.The Boys (Amazon) (Season Finale) — Sean finished the series finale and loved it. No spoilers, but he makes a pointed observation about a show that commentates on superhero movie culture while simultaneously spinning off into... more superhero content.Faces of Death (Amazon) (2026 Remake) — A surprisingly solid new take on the concept, reframed around a content moderator on a fake social media platform stumbling onto recreated snuff-style videos. Sean gives it half a hot dog and means it as a compliment.Magnum Opus (Ebay) (Youtube) (The Movie) — Directed by friend of the show Addison Bennick (Psycho Ape I & II), this DIY Jackass-style movie is a 20-year labor of love and John genuinely digs it. Available through Addison's eBay store — physically, like a lunatic, the way movies should be sold.Six Days to Air (Youtube)— The South Park documentary. John finally watched it. Trey Parker and Matt Stone spend most of the six days doing absolutely nothing, and it's riveting.Dead Man on Campus (Amazon) (1998) — Mark-Paul Gosselaar in a movie about two college kids trying to get their suicidal roommate to actually do it so they can pass their classes. Even by 1998 standards, John was a little stunned this got a theatrical release. No Jeremy Piven, though, so it edges out PCU.Some of the above links are affiliate links — if you purchase through them we get a small kickback, and it's the best way to support the show.New episodes of the Dewey Pod Monster podcast drop every week.
