From NFL stardom to surviving unimaginable tragedy, John Dorenbos's story is one of resilience, redemption, and redefining purpose. In this powerful episode of Dropping Bombs, Brad Lea sits down with the former Philadelphia Eagles Pro Bowler, world-class magician, America's Got Talent finalist, and keynote speaker to unpack his jaw-dropping life journey. After a life-threatening heart condition ended his football career and a childhood trauma no one should endure, John turned pain into power and found his calling as a speaker and entertainer.

You'll hear how he forged his NFL path using a highlight reel of three players, why magic became his safe haven, and how he ultimately forgave the unforgivable—his father, who murdered his mother. John opens up about healing, therapy, forgiveness, and using storytelling and magic to bring hope to others.

This episode will leave you speechless, inspired, and more grateful for the life you live.
