This week on the Black Rifle Coffee Podcast, we have a special Father’s Day Episode! Logan Stark sits down with none other than Travis Pastrana and his dad, Robert Pastrana. From Marine Corps boxing stories and busted knuckles to raising one of the most fearless athletes on the planet, this episode dives deep into family, grit, and the lessons that shaped a legend.
Robert shares the tough love approach that built resilience in Travis from a young age, mile-a-day rules, broken bones, and go-karts at two years old.
Meanwhile, Travis opens up about the wild stunts, near-death moments, and how his dad’s “rub some dirt on it” mentality molded his mindset.
Whether you're a fan of Nitro Circus or want to know what it’s like being raised by a no-nonsense Marine, this conversation is packed with gold.
