In The Arena
Wilderness extreme. Urban raw. Will you spend yourself in a worthy cause?
The Heart of the Story
“This show will take your emotional guts and lay them on the table for everyone to see.”
~ Benjamin "Coach" Wade, the Dragonslayer
Benjamin “Coach” Wade is not recruiting players.
Why This Matters
“I'm done with reality shows that tear people down for raw entertainment. In The Arena is how I intend to change all of that.”
~ Benjamin "Coach" Wade, the Dragonslayer
The Entertainment Industrial Complex profits from cynicism, betrayal, and the spectacle of people tearing each other down.
