Conquer Your Battlefield Podcast – Interview with Rob Rico | Maintaining Persistence & Perseverance

In 2024, we are excited to reserve a segment of our blog space every month to spotlight the work of our esteemed Brave Alumni. You may have already enjoyed familiar stories that were once showcased on the Brave stage. This time, we shine a spotlight on the noteworthy endeavors of another distinguished Brave alum, JD McGibney. JD, a skilled musician, made his debut on the Brave stage during our 2022 LA Show. Beyond his musical talents, he is also a dedicated podcaster who centers his discussions on mental health and wellbeing. We invite you to immerse yourself in today’s featured episode. And if you like what you hear today, please watch for more content from JD in the upcoming months!


Welcome to the “Conquer Your Battlefield” podcast, where we come together to discuss some of the more significant struggles, and metaphorical battlefields, that we’ve faced along our journeys, and share some insight on how we’ve conquered them. 

I’m JD McGibney, guitarist of the band Angels on the Battlefield, and in this episode I’ll be chatting with the amazing, the funny, the talented, and kind, wonderful, and ever radiant Rob Rico (Epic Rap Battles of History, Mission Improvable, Westside Comedy Theater). 

In this episode we talk a little bit about perseverance and persistence! For life in general, I think it’s pretty important for people to have a sense of wanting to overcome adversity, and Rob sheds some light on his personal mindset that helps him stay motivated to follow his heart and dreams.
