Have you ever been in a fight? Had to defend yourself? Both JT & Joey have had their run ins with real life violence and have survived to tell the tale. These are those tales. The boys don't condone street fighting but when you are attacked or thrust into the middle of a scrap you need to save yourself and maybe your friends too. It all happens so quickly and it doesn't always end well... If you can walk away that's the best option but sometimes it's not possible.

Andrew Wiltse joins the show to sound off on PEDs in BJJ, harsh truths about BJJ for self defense and the importance of conditioning. He also opens up about mental health, his passion for literature and he dives deep on how to improve your back control!

This injury is a part of BJJ culture but very few people understand how to deal with this predicament- including medical doctors. Both JT & Joey have had their own experience with Cauliflower ears and have been frustrated with the lack of information on what to do. This is their own account but should not be taken as medical advice.

We are joined on the podcast by Former UFC light-heavyweight champion and UFC Hall of Famer "Suga" Rashad Evans. We are also joined by Del Jolly, who worked as part of Decriminalize Denver and Charlotte's Web CBD before co-founding Unlimited Sciences, a psychedelic research nonprofit. Rashad and Del have partnered together to create a functional mushroom company called "Umbo."

We also discuss dealing with "Ego Death," why Rashad started fighting/MMA, and why he returned to fighting after retirement. Dell shares what interested him in using "Toad Medicine," how perception of life and understanding of consciousness has changed, why medicines such as Psilocybin are illegal, the process of legalization and what research is behind Psilocybin, how Psilocybin creates new neural pathways and neurogenesis and the impact on CTE for MMA fighters, what are functional mushrooms and how they can help your health, how Rashad has modified his diet and training as he has gotten older, and Rashad and Del discuss their functional mushroom company "Umbo," and the mission behind the company.

On this episode we discuss 10 qualities of a smart Jiu-Jitsu practitioner. This episode comes from an e-mail that Chewy had on his e-mail list. This is not meant to be an exhaustive list, but the first 10 qualities that Chewy came up with. Here is 1-10: - Is motivated by their long-term goals, not short-term gratification or feelings. - Can focus on a particular technique for a longtime. - Is willing to put themselves into uncomfortable positions because they know growth doesn't come from the comfortable. - Doesn't avoid the tough rounds in the gym. - Is smart enough to take rest days instead of trying to push their already exhausted body to the limit since it leads to subpar training at best, and injuries at worst. - Understands losing and failure is going to happen and doesn't let it create paralyzing fear or worry. - Has a game plan of their style. - Works to improve their diet and lifestyle just as they improve their techniques. - Takes part in physical conditioning to improve the strength and ability of their body. Since BJJ is dictated by the health and abilities of their body. - Trains hard but doesn't intentionally risk their training partner's health. Thanks to the podcast sponsors: Charlotte's Web CBD.

Just been graded but didn't think you were ready? Feeling like you can't live up to your belt? Imposter syndrome affects us all in different areas of our life and self doubt is hard to shake. JT & Joey unpack why you may not be the best judge of your own Jiu-jitsu game. It's important to consider some key factors in any developmental process: - Trusting your coach- Arrogance Vs Confidence- Where were you 1 year ago?- Get feed back on your Game- The various levels to each belt Don't let the challenge of sucking and not succeeding make you quit. Not feeling worthy is fuel for the fire to work on parts of your game that might be lacking. Don't let the uncertainty hold you back for doing what you need to do, to grow and improve.
