THE Wartime Leadership Podcast: The Resiliency of American Gladiator Deron “MALIBU” McBee! He is an actor and sportsman, known best as Malibu on American Gladiators and for playing Motaro in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. Deron toured the professional racquetball circuit for three years.

Daron was a gladiator on the TV series American Gladiators, performing under the name Malibu. He appeared in both the TV series and returned several years later for the live tour! He was known for his blond hair, tanned skin, and surfer persona. Deron walks out this experience in ESPN Film’s 30-For-30 ‘American Gladiators documentary’. Such a detailed look, it took 2-hour long episodes.

As an actor, Daron has been cast in action movies where he was often asked to use fighting skills and often portrayed villain roles. To help develop his skills, Daron trained in the art of karate at the famed Billy Blanks World Karate Studio, and hand-to-hand combat and swordsmanship with Anthony De Longis. He states that he has produced his impressive physique by abstaining from steroids and using a combination of prayer and faith.  

From chasing his father’s love, affection, and attention, losing his wife to a heart attack, to surviving multiple injuries and ultimately leading to an addiction to pain killers, Deron opens up to us in a very vulnerable conversation. Deron’s resilience has been molded by his love for God and the relationship he continues to grow each and every day.
