  • Quiggin Out Podcast Rebranding Episode Featuring GeekFireInc!

    Welcome to the NEW Quiggin Out Podcast. Yes you read that right. The MMA has been dropped and the direction of this podcast has stepped aside from being just focused on MMA but open to pop culture and amazing creators like the one featured on this episode, GeekFireInk.

    Richard and I, henceforth Zuni, have been connected for the better part of a year where his videos would come across the daily feed and there would be a message here or there commenting on his hilarious Arnold impersonations or videos that me rolling with laughter.

    This episode dives into the man behind GeekFireInk, why his page actually has that name, the inner light, stand-up comedy, VCR's , voiceovers, Terminators and so much more. Zuni doesn't hold back on his history with paramedic school, being 24 hours from death or literally driving home from helping combat the fires in California as we filmed this episode. (Episode was filmed December 17).

    I have been waiting for the right time to post and really wanted this episode to be different. A re-branding should come with new intros, new outros and a new looking format.

    From the bottom of my heart, I hope you enjoy this new direction!

  • Quiggin Out MMA Podcast Episode 70 featuring the 'Subway Hero", Joe Lozito!
    The Quiggin Out MMA Podcast Episode 70 is here now with the "Subway Hero" himself, Joe Lozito! This was an interview that has been on the bucket list, so to speak, for a very long time. Lozito and I have been talking on and off for the last decade and it was finally time to get him as a guest on the show. We discussed in detail that very day that gave him the title of "Subway Hero", what an amazing community the MMA provided, Dana White and his staff, the support of the internet when things got tough and SO MUCH MORE. Lozito is also quite the hockey fan so we had a great time discussing the current Stanley Cup Playoffs (Panthers vs. Maple Leafs at the time of the filming of this episode) and how hockey players have adapted their training to include , you guessed it, MMA.

  • Quiggin Out MMA Podcast Episode 68 featuring BJJ Black Belt, Professor Rob Kahn!

    The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 68 featuring one of Royce Gracie's first BJJ black belts, Professor Rob Kahn!

    This has been a LONG time coming and super excited to share this with EVERYONE! Professor Rob Kahn is one of Royce Gracie's first five Black Belts, something that was news to me as Professor Kahn is always referred to as "Gracie's First Black-Belt". This episode dives deep into Professor Kahn's BJJ journey, stories about days of old, his favorite Royce Gracie stories and so much more. We discussed Professor Kahn's views on the current state and whether or not he thinks the top BJJ stars are on steroids.

    This episode will also reveal the one person that Professor Kahn has always wanted to train with but never got the chance. It's a fantastic story!

  • Quiggin Out MMA Podcast Episode 69 featuring BKFC and Bellator Vet, Jessica "Black Widow" Borga!

    The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 69 featuring Bellator and BKFC vet, Jessica "Black Widow" Borga!

    No we haven't forgotten how to count so episode 68 will be coming out later next week due to scheduling.
    This episode was a fun one and is certainly one for the books. As stated above, Borga is a multiple time Bellator veteran as well as recent BKFC fighter, where she was victorious at 145lb, a weight class she intends to stay in..
    Borga talks about her BJJ journey, getting her black belt earlier this year, and how her open lifestyle, including her use of Onlyfans, helps her to train and continue to compete! Borga stays humble but does not mince words when it comes to her life and her career. Truly a fun episode as always as Borga dives into her lifestyle, her MMA journey, her family and what is next for her. #OpenContract

  • Quiggin Out MMA Podcast Episode 67 featuring Fat Boy Jiu-Jitsu owner and creator, Juan Santiago!

    The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 67 featuring a special sponsor showcase with the owner of Fat Boy BJJ himself, Juan Santiago!

    This was such a great episode (not like the rest aren't) but this truly was a lot of fun! Fat Boy BJJ has been a "sponsor" of mine for almost 50 episodes and we felt it was time to put a face to the brand and truly get to know Juan!
    Santiago talks about his journey in jiu-jitsu, being the big guy in the room and the difficulties he encountered after he was told that Jiu-Jitsu is "for everyone" yet he was unable to find a gi, or more specifically a matching gi, that fit his size and allowed him the movement needed. It was really for this reason that the Fat Boy Jiu-Jitsu brand came to life.

  • Quiggin Out MMA Podcast Episode 66 featuring BJJ Black Belt Legend, Master Ricardo Liborio!

    The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 66 featuring BJJ Legend and one of the nicest guys in all of MMA/BJJ, Master Ricardo Liborio!  

    This episode start definitely caught me off guard because Master Liborio wanted me to tell everyone how we met. And as you can tell by watching, I was happy to oblige as it's a fun story that I DON'T think I have shared on the show before.  Master Liborio and I go on to discuss the current state of Jiu-Jitsu, what he has been doing during the "Covid Era" and how the BJJ program at UCF is doing. 

    For those who are reading this BEFORE watching the show, UCF currently offers Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as an accredited class, meaning it has tests, attendance and even a baseline curriculum that includes some Brazilian history.  Please have a blast listening to Master Liborio speak as it's one of the rare episodes where most of talking is done by the guest and it's a lot to take in!  

    Enjoy!

  • Quiggin Out MMA Podcast Episode 65 featuring BKFC Heavyweight, Josh "Stay Down" Watson!

    The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 65 featuring recent Knucklemania 3 winner, BKFC Heavyweight Josh Watson!   

    Right off the bat, we waste no time getting right into how many shows Watson has done this week, dealing with the new popularity and so much more. Watson's story about his day job and the run in with Human Resources was absolutely hilarious. 

    Going a different route with this episode, we actually barely talked about Watson's MASSIVE win over Greg Hardy at Knucklemania 3 and focused more on the man outside of the squared circle. It's fantastic that even after seeing a leg break in BKFC and a knockout of the year candidate, Watson is the one getting all the well-deserved attention.
