Kyle is the head of Watson Martial Arts as well as the coach of both hosts (as well as producer Murph when he is home) and has had a prolific career in combat sports early in life and one of the top rated bjj schools in the midwest here and now.

March 18, 2025 LONG LIVE THE NOTE: Reed Low on Being STL Blues Hockey Enforcer, Fatherhood, Finding Jesus
In today's episode we are joined by STL Blues Hockey alumni and fellow AU creator - Reed Low! Reed's story begins in Canada where he found his love for hockey early on.

An accomplished auctioneer, father, and deep in his love for Jesus - Reed's story reminds us that the weight we carry is often simply not worth the guilt and shame we attribute to it.
