In this episode of Nickals and Dimes, Bo sits down with NCAA National Champion and Penn State standout Mitchell Mesenbrink for a raw and insightful conversation.

Mitchell talks about his training habits, the wrestling partners who shaped him, and the moment he almost walked away from the sport. He opens up about the unique dynamic of having his dad as his coach, the decision to transfer to Penn State, and the mindset that fuels him now.
The conversation also dives into psychology, stress management, humility, and how Mitchell views his role on one of the most competitive teams in the country. Plus, he breaks down his NCAA finals match from his freshmen year, his thoughts ahead of FinalX, and how the wrestling and MMA communities differ at the core.
