Episode 007: Brant Hansen
Description
You'd think with a radio audience of millions and two best-selling books, feeling like a failure wouldn't be an issue. But you'd be wrong.
As a child he was diagnosed with Asperger’s and an eye issue that makes it difficult to look people in the eye, yet remarkably Brant Hansen is brilliant communicator. Even more remarkable is that—given how he was treated by his dad (a pastor)—Brant spends most of his time talking about his faith.
He’s convinced that most people want to laugh and be silly (and that belief shows up daily on his radio show), but Brant is also convinced that most people don’t experience God in many of the ways they are led to believe they should. His story is powerful and heartbreaking…but his perspective is refreshing and 100% honest.
Brant Hansen is a best-selling author, nationally syndicated radio host, and advocate for healing children with correctible disabilities through CURE International.
He’s won multiple “personality of the year” awards for work on his offbeat and quirky radio show, which is heard on more than 250 radio stations around the country and has more than 2 million listeners. Brant also has a wildly popular podcast with his friend and radio producer, Sherri Lynn called “The Brant and Sherri Oddcast.”
