What do you call a man who runs a bar without a heartbeat?

On this episode of the Action Figures Podcast, we sit down with David, owner of MVP’s Sports Bar & Grill — entrepreneur, father, and living proof that some of the most powerful people in the room don’t say much... until it matters.

David shares his brush-with-death story, what it’s like to live with an LVAD (Left Ventricular Assist Device), and why buying a dive bar might be the most meaningful decision of his life. From coaching kids to keeping the doors open for guys who’ve got nowhere else to go, this is the barstool side of Bang to Boom — raw, real, and weirdly hopeful.

We talk about:

Running a public house as the last great refuge for broken men
What near-death does to your tolerance for BS
Why fatherhood, bourbon, and second chances all come with the same burn

This episode is dedicated to Henry “Uncle Hank” Kulick — a man who never needed a mic to be heard.

Raise a glass. Tip your bartender. And never take a quiet room for granted.
