If you’ve been watching the Discovery Channel every Wednesday night at 10 p.m. the last several weeks, no doubt you’ve spotted Baltimore’s Andrew Stroup, one of 10 contestants on “The Big Brain Theory.”

In addition to being an engineer with the Department of Defense, Stroup also has a history of ass-kickery: he was a two-time Junior Olympic champion in Taekwondo.
