Show notes
Caleb Quanbeck, one of the most real dudes on YouTube, takes us behind the camera and gives us a 2-hour all-access pass. Caleb’s YouTube content is a real dose of reality for those who live and breathe cars, love drifting or are building a program on a limited budget. Caleb came from modest beginnings and made his mark in the BMX world. His passion for cars and drifting realigned the main focus of his content from BMX to cars and has altered the path of his life.
On this episode of the Konig Behind The Wheel Podcast Caleb talks about his daily life, what it’s like to run a drift program, the struggles of being a YouTuber, how to get sponsorships, how he got into drifting, the full story about how he linked up with Konig and he’ll even discuss the sex of his baby, plus much more! If you have some time, give it a listen! As always we put a timeline cheat sheet below so you can skip around!
If you’re able to head over to our YouTube Channel (Link below) we have the full video available that you can watch and it includes a quick look at the new house and shop.
