Fishing Without Bait 501: Faith, Focus and Control with Shane Chojnacki
In Part 4 of our ongoing conversation with Shane Chojnacki — pro wrestler and fighter known as The Savage Gentleman Victor Benjamin — we explore what happens when life forces us to slow down and truly look at where we are.
Shane reflects on how faith, self-awareness, and surrounding himself with the right people helped him find clarity during a season of upheaval. Rather than drowning in noise, distraction, or negativity, he chose to focus on what he could control — his reactions, his values, and his purpose.
We discuss how digital noise pulls us away from presence, why humor and laughter still matter, and how being a good human being is both simple and powerful. From faith and fitness to kindness and accountability, this episode is a reminder that meaning often reveals itself when we’re willing to be present enough to see it.
This conversation invites listeners to ask important questions:
What do you control?
What aligns with your values?
And what is the next right thing to do?
