When it came time to celebrate the 2nd Birthday JT & Joey decided to do it over a couple of beverages. ( Maybe a Micro dose too...) This episode is a thank you to everyone who works behind the scenes to make the show happen: - Kate White - The Power Producer.- Julian Reyes - Our Right hand man.- Angel Mahinay - Our Faithful Assistant.- Jungle Brothers Gym- Our Home Base. The boys get into lots of behind the scenes info that you don't get to hear on the show. Answering all the questions you were asked to hear and the guys open up getting progressively looser as the drinks keep coming. Many untold stories spill out and the banter levels elevate! Much thanks to you the listener for supporting the show, making this all possible and such a great part of the Bulletproof Experience.

The jiu-jitsu world was shaken recently when Jack Greener, severely injured in 2018 while sparring at a San Diego gym, was awarded $46,475,112 dollars by a jury. Rener Gracie testified for the plaintiff, and Clark Gracie testified for the defence. In this episode, I get together with Dan Lukeheart (Brea Jiu-Jitsu) and Alex Kask (Barrister and Solicitor) to discuss the specific technique that caused this injury (the 'Leo Viera Backtake'), training methods used in jiu-jitsu, who gets to set industry standards in jiu-jitsu, whether white belts should spar, and how teachers and club owners can protect themselves from being wiped out by similar lawsuits. More information about this lawsuit is available here... Developments in Martial Arts Practice Liability: Greener v. Del Mar Jiu Jitsu Club Rener Gracie's Deposition Video of the accident Take care of your training partners!! Stephan Kesting
