For this episode of the Wrestling Strength Podcast I am joined by my longtime friend and real life guitar hero Jutt Huffman.   Jutt grew up wrestling right down the road from the original Old School Gym and was an Ohio HS State finalist as a senior for Watkins Memorial.   We talk the journey from blue collar high school wrestler to professional traveling musician, and we even have our first live music performance here at the HQ!   Follow Jutt on all social media @jutthuffman And make sure to check out his music at https://jutthuffman.com/

Forest Belli grew up in the Old School Gym as a young wrestler from nearby Northridge. He went on to have a standout high school career which led to wrestling D1 for the Princeton Tigers.

Having recently completed an internship on capital hill and writing his Princeton senior thesis on “countering political violence due to online radicalization”, I sat down with Forest to get a better understanding of how our government is set up, how it works (or fails to work), and what we can all do to make it better.

Not our typical wrestling strength podcast but one you definitely don’t want to miss!
