MMA Legend Chael Sonnen Says He Knows The Real Identity Of DB Cooper

Last week we got an email with a guest booking late at night on like... Wednesday. The email said we had Chael Sonnen coming into the office. 

Frankly, I didn't know the first thing about it or how it happened. I was getting ready for bed and when I got the notification I said "woah this is fucking awesome" to myself while doing a little mental fist bump.

The reason for that is Chael Sonnen is renown for being GREAT on the mic. Doesn't matter if it's a buttoned up interview with whoever or him just yucking it up with three idiots like myself, Ed and Ryan. 

Ryan - the most novice MMA fan of the 3 of us - walked into the office the next morning and asked if he should be on the interview because of it. Ed and I already knew Chael was a great talker and storyteller, so we responded with a resounding "yes" knowing fully Ryan would be quickly submersed in the conversation: 

It was actually pretty funny seeing in real time how quickly the two became fast friends. 

Other topics of note included: 

- Chael knowing who and maybe even how DB Cooper got away with his plane heist
- Aliens
- The JFK assassination
- Ancient civilizations 
- His current tour with Bellator and past with the UFC, including fighting all of the baddest motherfuckers ever 

And a WHOLE lot more. One of my favorite guests we've ever had in studio. We coulda lobbed questions to him on the Great Pyramids of Giza for hours and hours and hours and he would have kept us entertained. Dude is the man and I truly think you guys will enjoy this interview.
