The Brendan Ecker Influence Brendan Scott Ecker The Brendan Ecker Influence is hosted by Brendan Scott Ecker — a 27-year-old American entrepreneur, Michigan real estate agent, CEO of Gold Shark Media Ai, founder of PassRE USA, investor, law enforcement officer, former NCAA two-sport athlete, and author of Beyond the Beat and How I Made My Dorm My Office.

With a background in Criminology, law enforcement, and competitive athletics, he blends discipline, strategy, and mindset into everything he teaches. On this podcast, Brendan breaks down the real frameworks behind wealth, business, real estate, marketing, AI, geopolitics, mindset, and personal growth. He discusses the journey in growing his businesses, documenting the wins, failures, and the tactical steps that helped him escape BardsFM Scott Kesterson Clarity in contested space. BardsFM is daily intelligence analysis of the information war — finding the through line when everything else is noise. At the root is this: faith and knowledge are the greatest weapons of war, and the greatest act of faith is walking the way of Christ in a world that has forgotten what truth costs.Hosted by Scott Kesterson — combat veteran, documentary filmmaker, and rancher — BardsFM cuts through manufactured narratives with deep research and honest analysis. New episodes Tuesday through Friday, covering faith, liberty, history, and the machinery of information warfare itself. In the end, God wins.
