Buckle Up Podcast Universe with Brandon Rush & Mama Rush
Welcome to the Buckle Up Podcast Universe with Brandon Rush & Mama Rush, where everyone has a seat at the table. Hosted by actor Brandon Rush — who has appeared in over 77 TV shows and films (and counting) — alongside his beloved co-host, his mother Carolyn, better known as Mama Rush, this is a place where real stories and real people shine.
From celebrity interviews to medical doctors, news anchors to veterans, teachers to everyday heroes — we bring together voices from all walks of life. At Buckle Up, we believe that what makes people truly unique is how much we can all relate to one another across different experiences.
Here, everyone’s welcome. Every story matters. Every journey counts. Whether you’re a household name or a hometown hero, you’re part of the family.
Buckle up — because real conversations, real heart, and real connection are what drive us. This is the Buckle Up Podcast Universe.
“From the bottom to Blue Bloods.”
This is what legacy sounds like.
Available now on Spotify and all major platforms.
