In this episode of Black and Blue: A Jiu Jitsu Podcast, we dive headfirst into the wild world of BJJ Reddit, specifically a thread that reads like it was written by someone who just hates everything. From complaints about gym etiquette and belt promotions to bizarre takes on techniques and training culture, we break down each post and debate whether these gripes are justified… or just hilariously uneducated rants.

We explore the fine line between constructive criticism and pure negativity, discuss why some people struggle to find joy in their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu journey, and share our own funny stories from the mats that prove not everything deserves a meltdown.

If you’ve ever scrolled through BJJ Reddit and thought, “Wow, someone woke up grumpy,” this episode is for you. Equal parts discussion, debate, and comic relief, this one will have you nodding, laughing, and maybe even reconsidering your own hot takes.
