Early life
Redban was born in Columbus, Ohio. He was self-taught in video editing and was working at
Gateway 2000 when
Joe Rogan hired him to film, produce and edit videos full-time.[6][7]
After producing videos for
Doug Stanhope, and after receiving severance from the closure of the
Gateway 2000 computer store where he was employed, Redban accepted an offer from Rogan to film him during comedy tours. His interest in live streaming services led him to expand his video production.[6][7][8]
The Joe Rogan Experience launched on December 24, 2009, and Redban remained the sole producer until late 2013 when Jamie Vernon was hired to help with an increased number of podcasts. Vernon subsequently took over as the full time producer of the show.[9][10] Redban has since been a guest on the show many times.[11][12][13][14]
Redban filmed the confrontation between
Carlos Mencia and Joe Rogan in 2007.[15][16]
Deathsquad podcast network
The first episode of the Deathsquad podcast aired on August 1, 2009, and the first episode of Your Mom's House podcast was released November 24, 2010.[17] Redban also hosted the podcast entitled Icehouse Chronicles.[18][19] Redban was a co-host of the Brode & Esther podcast alongside
Esther Povitsky and the late
Brody Stevens.[20] The first episode was released on October 7, 2011[21] and there were seventeen episodes released.[22][23]
Deathsquad Secret Show
Redban hosts the Deathsquad Secret Show,[24] a live comedy show featuring unannounced comedians.[25][26] The pilot episode was released on December 8, 2012.[27]
