The Vandigivint Podcast

This episode of the podcast is me welcoming on a new podcast that is based around filmmaking, The Lone Star Slate Podcast. This episode dives deep into the lives of the members that make The Lone Star Slate, and we get to hear about how they got into the film industry.

This episode of the podcast is an overview of some achievements and changes I have had in my life within the last 3 and a half years. It's been a long time since I last published an episode, and I knew it was time to bring the show back and share these stories with everyone. Going from working for an airline, working on television shows and movies, working for a cruise line, and so much more. I look forward to bringing you on this new journey with me, and I hope you'll enjoy it just as much as I've have. This is only the beginning.

This episode of the podcast I am joined by Chris Tramell. Chris is a mixed martial artist who has trained with elite level martial artists and, in my opinion, is also an elite level martial artist as well. He has trained with some of the biggest names in the world, fought in some of the biggest promotions in the world, and is on the path to fight for the Lion Fight title in a few short months. In this episode, we go into detail on how Chris first got into martial arts, how he became a top level fighter, how he had to fight to survive when his life was almost cut short due to a devastating motorcycle accident while he was living in Thailand, and how he's been overcoming the odds while on his road to redemption.

I hope you all will enjoy this episode as much as I did, and I look forward to uploading more content for you all in the near future.
