Chad Ollinger never imagined he would end up a reality TV star. But it has been his reality for some time now.
Chad stars on Discovery Channel’s Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch alongside his father Duane Olligner as they explore their Utah ranch, seeking answers to where the land just seems different on Blind Frog Ranch.
Chad joined the cast of this reality TV program in January 2021 and has appeared in both seasons 1 and 2.
Now, we shall tell you more about his Blind Frog Ranch journey, net worth, and married life-related stories in this ‘Chad Ollinger Bio’.
Chad Ollinger On Blind Frog Ranch
So before the whole Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch happened on Discovery, Chad Ollinger’s father originally purchased the Blind Frog Ranch with other investors. Along the way and he is now the only one who has kept the project going.
And while the locals there believe the land nearly adjacent to Skinwalker Ranch to be cursed, with bizarre terrain and several mysterious stories, Chad and his father, here, are hellbent on finding a vast fortune of gold in the ground. They seemed this determined also because all their money, resources, and reputation are on the line now. Chad’s father especially has sunk everything he has in hunting to be on this project.
So the idea of this all is — that massive 160-acre plot they bought has been the site of alleged paranormal activity and it is commonly struck by lightning. Because of this and a slew of urban legends, many including the Ollingers are convinced that precious metals are buried beneath the surface of the land.
And while all these continue to plot in Utah’s Uintah Basin, there’s a popular thread on Reddit created in a discussion of how the Discovery show is all fake and their excavations seem staged and set up.

Chad Ollinger Wife
As of the time of this writing, Chad Ollinger had been together with his beautiful wife, Haley Ollinger, for half his life already. (Haley, so you know, is two years younger than her husband.)
They marked their 10 years of being together on 15 June 2013; in between got married on 21 December 2008.
Fast forward to several years, and they have four kids Lillie, 11, Hutch, 9, Finn, 4, and Hazel, 2, joining them in a happily married life.
Now and then, Chad and his wife show us a long elaborated view of their family life on their family’s YouTube channel: All in Ollies. You could also give the Ollongers a follow on their Instagram account @allinollies; where they have been calling themselves “a full-time travel family of six”.
In 2019, Chad and Haley, natives of Dumas, Texas, sold their house and aviation business in Dumas; and moved themselves and their kids into a decommissioned school bus in (La Ventana, Baja California Sur) in Mexico. And they aptly named the bus, i.e, their current home, as Skoolie; because they decided to keep school plans simple for their four kids.
From the look of it, Chad and his wife were road-schooling their kids. “They [his kids] don’t have to fit a mold of what public school wants”, is what Chad was heard saying in October 2021. (As of this date, the coronavirus scratched the family’s plans to head to California. They were hoping to be in Mexico all through the 2021’s fall.)
When talking to The Washington Post, Haley also shared that their kids have been happier than they were when rushing from public school to after-school sports to homework sessions. Then, together, she and her husband gave details on how they rely on a purchased language arts curriculum and their surroundings to teach their kids. In addition, they told that the kids do math online. And that, while on the road the Ollingers prioritize visits to national parks or science museums.
