    As always, when Nathan and the BR team show up the conversation is lively and wide ranging.

  • Episode 36 - Speeches that BJJ Coaches Give, Yellowstone Select

    Hey Fam. You may have noticed that we put this episode up, then took it back down. After a listen after publishing we decided the language on this one got a little out of hand. While this podcast is listed as explicit and we do curse on this show, this one got a little excessive and did not live up to the standard that Jerry and I have for ourselves and the podcast. While the show isn't sponsored nor endorsed by our gym and our coaches, we are representatives of the gym, our coaches, and our teammates.

    We also decided to take down Jerry's rant. While it was epic and the argument was made in good faith the presentation could have been more polished. Jerry and I have a strong intolerance for stupidity, bigotry, and hatred of any kind and we got a little wound up on this one. This is what happens when brother Cody isn't with us. 

    In Various and Sundry Scott and Jerry talk the fights this week, the loss of "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler, and how the US turns the symbols of revolt into T-shirts. 

    Scott and Jerry then turn the spotlight on the coaches after last week's blue belt test episode because you can't get anywhere in BJJ without a great group of coaches. The guys discuss #TotalDefenseMartialArts Head Coach Brian Rose and our Black Belt Dennis Hayse and the speeches that BJJ coaches give BJJ students to keep them on the path. 

    We also shouted out our friend Mike Green and his new BJJ company Off Your Back BJJ. Mike is putting out some sick Gis and Rashguards with the 80's flare you wish you were around for the first time. Check him out at OffYourBackBJJ.com or on the socials at:

  • Episode 35 - The Belt Test Edition, Uki and Tester Responsibilities, The Blue Belt Blues, Yamazaki 12YO SM

    On this week's episode the guys celebrate the recent belt test and Scott and Cody being promoted to Blue Belt and Episode 27 Special Guest Matt Skretta being promoted to Brown Belt!

    The Rolling Rocks Radio team also discusses what it's like to be a tester, and an Uki, and provide some tips for both to make testing a little easier (or at least know what to expect). We also discuss the "Blue Belt Blues", why we think it happens, and what we think we can do to prevent it. Finally, Scott and Jerry talk a little about the recent fights at UFC 259.

    As a fitting celebration for this august occasion the bottle for the show was Yamazaki 12 year single malt. Scott's talked about the Big Y a couple of times on the show, and this is the perfect time to break it out!

  • Episode 34 - Joe Lombardo of Scholars and Iron - Investigating Society thru Strength Cultures, Screwball Peanut Butter Whisky

    Man, what to say about this episode! Rolling Rocks Radio was honored to host Dr. Joe Lombardo of the Scholars and Iron Podcast on this week's show. Joe is a documentarian of strength cultures, both thru his podcast and his first ever documentary Women Empowered which he created with his partner Chris Praml of Precision Video Solutions. 

    Joe and the guys dove deep into the cultures that are born out of groups of people taking on physical pursuits and how these groups break political and ideological definition. We also discuss why Joe decided to start Scholars and Iron, how a PhD candidate found his way to the powerlifting platform, and why you shouldn't judge members of strength cultures based on their looks alone.

  • Episode 33 - Crypto, UFC 258, The Bellator LHW GP, Icy Mike's BJJ Video, Russell's Reserve 10Y

    On this week's episode of Rolling Rocks Radio Brother Cody is out sick so Scott and Jerry start off trying to discuss various and sundry and end up discussing crypto, preping, and the best way to truss a pedophile you've shot for the bounty.

    Once the show got back on the rails the boys reviewed the fights from UFC 258, how Miranda Maverick just can't catch a break, the upcomming Bellator Light Heavyweight Grand Prix, and Icy Mike's AWESOME Chewy impression and his video on how BJJ may not have been CREATED for small people but it's a great system FOR smaller people.

  • Episode 32 - Nick Lowary of Ground Shark Coffee, Growth, Tips for First Time BJJ Competitors, Drinking Local

    Rolling Rocks Radio is honored to welcome the leader of Ground Shark Coffee, the one and only, Nick Lowary. In addition to his day job of pushing the best beans in the world Nick is a BJJ Purple belt who had his first professional BJJ match last month with Submission Fight Championships.

    On this episode we talk with Nick about what he has planned for Groundshark in the future and the challenges of growing outside the BJJ community and into the larger extreme sports world. Scott, Cody, and Jerry also pick Nick's brain for his tips and trick for first time BJJ tournament competitors. We didn't get into the details of Nick's pro fight since he did such a great breakdown on The Family Alpha Podcast with Zac Small. That podcast can be found here - The Family Alpha Episode 151 - Crushing Life Milestones: BJJ Edition with Nick Lowary

    We also let Nick in on the Rolling Rocks Radio tradition of the fantasy MMA match. It was Scott's turn to bring the matchup and he came with Frank Shamrock Vs Cowboy Cerrone.
