Today on Sam Brown University TV, we’re asking a dangerous question: Could we survive the post-apocalypse?

We all like to believe we’d be great in an apocalyptic scenario. We personally like to think we’d be calm and resourceful. But honestly, we all have a hard time when the grocery store rearranges the aisles.

Sam is joined by Jon Daly, comedian and Fallout cast member who’s technically already lived through the end of civilization (on camera) and Manu Toigo, a survival expert and Naked and Afraid veteran who has actually survived extreme wilderness conditions with nothing but skill and mindset.

Together, they break down, what survival really takes, whether modern life has made us weaker, and how long Sam realistically lasts. Jon even recounts a big trauma from his past, and Sam laughs the entire time. This episode isn’t just about bunkers and canned beans. It’s about resilience, mindset, and what happens when comfort disappears.

If everything collapsed tomorrow…would you adapt?

Today on Sam Brown University TV, we’re asking a question that should have an easy answer: Do documentaries have to be boring? Because let’s be honest; documentaries are either the most interesting thing you’ve ever seen… or something you turn off halfway through and never return to.

Sam Brown is joined by Derek Waters, creator of Drunk History, and Amy Scott, acclaimed documentary filmmaker. Together, they break down why documentaries get a bad reputation, give a thousand Letterboxd recommendations for ones that don’t suck, and expound on what makes a good one.

So get comfortable, as we do the opposite of Netflix and don’t make a you sit through two hours of slow drone footage to do it.

OOHHH YEAHHH - SNAP INTO IT, because today on Sam Brown University TV, we’re asking the question that separates the CHAMPIONS from the CREAM OF THE CROP:

How old is too old to become a professional wrestler?!

Is there an expiration date on dropping the elbow?
Is the ring only for the young and the hungry, or can a late bloomer like Dean Brown still climb the turnbuckle and HEAR THE CROWD ROAR?

Sam steps into the squared circle with:
Ryan Nemeth - professional wrestler, comedian, and Hollywood’s most shredded poet
Matt McCarthy - comedian and co-host of We Watch Wrestling, a man who knows the history, the legends, and the PAIN, DIG IT

This episode is about heart, timing and knowing when to FIGHT - and when to TAP OUT.

Because in wrestling, just like life, brother…
You don’t quit when you get old,
YOU GET OLD WHEN YOU QUIT.

OHHHH YEAHHH.

Sam sits down with comedian and actor Josh Fadem and creator Luca Schaefer-Charlton to tackle one of the most mysterious forces on the planet: how do you actually go viral?

They dig into why some videos randomly explode, why others vanish without a trace, and whether “the algorithm” is a real thing or just some mysterious god we blame when our posts flop. Along the way, they talk accidental fame, physical comedy, trend cycles, burnout, and what happens when you try just a little too hard online.

Is going viral a skill? A science? A curse? Or just something that happens when you trip in the right place at the right time?
