COLLEGE LIFE:

ANT attended Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He helped revitalize a media department launching 'The Anthony Ferrella Show' which covered SEC Football with Paul Finebaum, Laura Rutledge, and many others. He earned a Bachelor of Business Administration degree on May 8, 2020.

CURRENT LIFE:

After graduating from Duquesne University, ANT continued to work in the Pirates organization for a few months until the two decided to mutually part ways.

Not too long after the podcast launched, with the partnerships and brand deals continuing to grow, ANT moved to Miami, FL in March of 2022.
