November 21, 2024 #297 Aliens, Bully Beatdowns, and Why no one cares about AJJ
In this sizzling hot takes episode, we dive into a wild mix of questions and opinions guaranteed to spark debate (and maybe a few laughs). What would you do if the guy who bullied you in high school showed up to open mat? Is No-Gi really easier—or just more practical for a street fight? Plus, we tackle the IBJJF scoring system, Masters divisions, and the ultimate mystery: Do aliens exist? Oh, and let’s not forget a quick detour into Kangaroo Jack and why that movie might’ve broken trust forever. It’s Episode #297, and nothing is off-limits!

Can 2 Officers Make a Difference?

Ross Tyler (purple belt) and Sam Luna (brown belt) think so!

Join us in this compelling episode as we interview two dedicated police officers who are not only my bjj students but also Jiu Jitsu instructors for their fellow officers.

They share their firsthand experiences and insights on how consistent Jiu Jitsu training can transform law enforcement. We discuss the critical need for better training to ensure safety for both officers and citizens, tackling the root issues of violence in policing.

Discover their actionable plan to reduce reliance on weapons— "tools"—by empowering officers with effective self-defense skills. This conversation sheds light on a practical solution that could make a significant difference in communities everywhere.
