What if you went left instead of right? What if we're not alone on this planet? What if? This week Royes hits Miguel with several what if questions and we learn a little bit about Miguel's personal beliefs. Also the test results are in!! What is Miguel's genetic makeup? the answer may shock you...or not.

Tim is constantly seeking answers to escape the bootlicking phenomenea in BJJ, so it's only nature he ask our guest Dr. Mike Pappas on his opinion on it.

I shared this on here because I want to spread how awesome this video is! The content is NOT mine. I did NOT create this video. If you know who created this so I can credit accordingly. This was sent to me with no further information!

Josh Cisneros joins the show to talk about his start in Jiu-Jitsu and how his Wrestling background helped him. He also talks about the importance of patience on the mats and his thoughts on ADCC, as well as a story of chasing down a hit-and-run offender!

Do you like to train Hard? What is the hardest session you have ever done? JT & Joey have experienced some brutal training sessions at BJJ and in the gym. Working at 150% of your capacity does not equal 150% better results. We promote Quality over Quantity in training and are firm believers of less but better. But every now and again doing crazy over the top sessions can push your limits, to find out what you are physically and mentally capable of. Here is an entertaining collection of training tales that have traumatised the boys and can serve as lessons in what not to do.

This week The GOONS interviewed Dr Michael Pappas. Dr. Pappas is an activist, medical doctor practicing in NYC, and contributing member of the Left Voice, a revolutionary socialist news site and magazine dedicated to fostering a sustained and strategic struggle against every form of capitalist exploitation and oppression. In their discussion, Dr. Pappas elaborated on the views expressed in his article about the murder of Leandro Lo, and how it relates to the global issue of police brutality. He also shares his opinion on Adopt-A-Cop programs and better alternatives to them.

Do you fight to the death every roll? Got a team mate that goes 1000% but doesn't compete? If you have been on the wrong end of a training partner going super hard, it can be a bad time. In order to deal with a mat Hero you have to do your best to protect yourself. Maybe your team mate is bigger, stronger and perhaps even a higher belt and came for war. Regardless of how you feel- tired, flat or too relaxed, you have to bring a better intention and change your expectation. JT & Joey explore this topic and give some key pointers on how to deal with and negotiate a team mate who has no chill.

Do have a personal philosophy to help you with life? Stoicism is an ancient Philosophy that has helped some of Histories great people deal with war, plagues, suffering and death. So much of what you experience on your BJJ journey is outside of your control. Understanding what you can control and what you can't is at the heart of Stoicism. JT & Joey take an in depth look at how having a Stoic mindset helps build resilience, overcome life's struggles and ultimately empowers you to get better at BJJ.

This week the guys discuss the importance of controlling your emotions and not the other way around. Why is it so important that we control them on the mat and off? What are the ramifications of losing control?

Bruno Bastos joins the show to talk about guiding kids through Jiu-Jitsu, tough lessons learned on the mats and gives solid advice for future BJJ instructors. He also breaks down his "Bubble Theory" and explains how you can apply it to your game!

On this clip former guest Adisa Banjoko talks about the powerful work he did supports kids through his Non profit Hip Hop Chess Federation, and the challanges that made him decide that an LLC was the best way to help his community. Listen to the full episode on our Patreon www.Patreon.com/BJJGoons
