Kyle Brandt

American television host, media personality and actor Kyle Brandt was born in Hinsdale, Illinois. His interest in acting started in college, where he participated in local theater and numerous plays. Brandt was selected to star in "The Real World: Chicago" (MTV, 1992-2017) right after graduating, and left to Los Angeles to pursue acting further after the show. His next endeavor was in "Days of Our Lives" (NBC, 1965-2022), in which he worked until 2006, before becoming a producer and writer for a radio show.

He would eventually become its executive producer and a fill-in host, moving on to a senior producer position once "Jim Rome on Showtime" (CBS Sports Network, 2013-2015) transitioned to television. He co-hosted the show "Frogger" (Peacock, 2021-22) and has since commanded his own interview podcasts, "10 Questions With Kyle Brandt" (Spotify, 2020-) and "Kyle Brandt's Basement" (ESPN, 2022-).
