This episode covers the first half George Foreman's boxing career. Foreman was once the most feared boxer of his generation. An angry man, he ploughed his way through the heavyweight division until he faced the legendary Muhammad Ali. Foreman's early career saw a large amount of foreshadowing, such how fear was used as a weapon but also how love could also win the day.

For the first time on the podcast a complete, unedited, uninterrupted, raw ramble on a subject. Inspired by the hard-hitting TV drama "Adolescence", I look at the episodes and issues surrounding the show that has got everyone talking through the lens of a self-protection teacher. How relevant is the story? Why has it divided people?

Les Bubka of "Anxious Black Belt" fame joins us on episode one of season eight of the show. Les's remarkable background in martial arts (and life in general) has produced an approach that is both pioneering and traditional. Delving into mental health, he uses Karate to provide an enriching and empowering experience for different individuals and is working closely with experts in the field of psychology and counselling. Meanwhile, with experience as a Greco-Roman and Freestyle wrestler, he is ensuring his students start their training with a grappling foundation as they would have done in Okinawa. Join us for this fascinating discussion with author, podcaster, martial artist and a true friend to those in need: Les Bubka.

On this special Christmas and end of year/season episode of the show, we welcome back polymath mixed martial artist and sports therapist Rosi Sexton. Recorded during the summer of 2024 it provides a useful record of how confirmation bias work and critical thinking is lacking in martial arts and greater society. Following our in depth discussion, I talk about the continuing issues regarding manufactured outrage, including the supposed "War on Christmas", as well as reflections on some of this year's major Boxing bouts. All of this plus a reflection on CCMA's extremely busy year.

On this episode I take a nostalgic swipe at the show by attempting to frame a series of audio clips connected to CCMA. These include entire lessons from the five existing Animal Instincts online courses, a chapter from the "When Parents Aren't Around" audio book and archive material from the vlogs. 

There's also some recommended watching and updates on CCMA services.
