On this episode of the podcast, we are once again joined by Origin CEO and BJJ black belt Pete Roberts.

Pete discusses the process of shifting his role when he became the CEO of Origin, why Pete feels that this was the first year that he actually "worked," why you should change where you get your dopamine, why you shouldn't put anyone on a pedestal, why Jiu-Jitsu is a metaphor for life, someone who has guided Pete becoming a better CEO, the challenges of bringing manufacturing back to America, the issues with consumerism, how the trajectory of manufacturing may change with a new president, the difference between "free trade" and "fair trade," why Pete wants to get back to the roots of Origin, how Jiu-Jitsu Principles can be applied to business, how Jiu-Jitsu has remained a big part of his life, and why he has been training more No-Gi BJJ.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
