The Degen BJJ Podcast features Irish Mike & Degen Drifter, two average guys coming to terms with their below average jiu-jitsu. If you’re looking for a podcast that’ll improve your BJJ game, this likely isn’t it. If you found BJJ later in life, struggle to balance training around a busy schedule and appreciate BJJ culture on & off the mats; you’re in the right place. Enjoy some broad-ranging ramblings, tales from jiu-jitsu related travels and interviews with grapplers who are having more success than the hosts!
This week on the Degen BJJ Podcast, the heatwave hits and our hosts discuss their recent training. Ken gives a belated run down of his time with Icon Team Madeira, whilst Mike talks open mats - both near & far. Beyond the training chat the duo attempt to incriminate one another and float some future plans for the pod…. Though, if history is any guide, they probably won't happen.

True to form, the episode starts with some technical issues. Once the recording begins, Mike & Ken talk about what they learned from the first episode (clearly not much) and how they started training BJJ. In closing, the pair review their results from All Stars BJJ Europeans the past weekend.
