December 28, 2023 · 1:37:56

Welcome to a new episode of the I Suck at Jiu-Jitsu Show.

Today, Josh Mckinney(@thejoshmckinney) interviews Black Belt Competitior, Head Coach(On Guard BJJ), and Podcast Host(@TheEssentialJiuJitsuPodcast), Matt Kwan.

This conversation starts on creativity but as they dive deeper Josh learns that Matt is motivated so much by chasing his Passion. Matt brings up so many good points about how teaching jiu jitsu can free people from the things that they hate.

Matt and Josh also discuss their hatred for sous vide cooking, the struggles of school ownership, doing Pro wrestling in high school, and whether or not the moon landing was faked.

Practitioners at any level will enjoy this wide ranging conversation with Josh and Matt

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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.
