In this episode of The Vancrux Podcast, I sit down with Chadi—a second dan black belt judoka and YouTuber—to break down the truth about Judo and grappling.

We dive into competing, key techniques, and the history of Judo, including the philosophy of Kano himself. We also explore the future of Judo and where the sport is heading.

And most importantly—we address the big claim: The ground system wasn’t created by the Gracies. It existed long before they were even born, and we unpack the real history behind it and newaza.
