    Ivy Insights

    The Big Jiujitsu Show is a podcast that stands out amongst the sea of MMA and BJJ podcasts. Unlike many other shows, it is clear that the hosts are informed, educated, and truly passionate about the topics they discuss. This is evident in their interviews with popular personalities and experts in the BJJ community, as well as their insightful conversations about current events and other interests such as video games. The laid-back atmosphere of the show makes it enjoyable to listen to, and the hosts' witty comments and funny stories add an entertaining element.

    One of the best aspects of The Big Jiujitsu Show is its focus on diverse voices within the BJJ community. While there are many influential figures in BJJ who are often featured on other podcasts, this show gives a platform to everyday practitioners who may not have a large following or be widely known. Hearing from someone who is "out on the grind" like many listeners adds relatability to the show.

    Additionally, this podcast does a great job of keeping listeners up to date on things happening in both the jiujitsu world and current events. This combination of topics makes for interesting conversation and ensures that there is always something new to learn or discuss.

    However, like any podcast, The Big Jiujitsu Show has its drawbacks. Some listeners may find that the show occasionally veers away from BJJ-related topics into more general discussions or random banter. While this can be enjoyable for some, others may prefer a more focused approach.

    In conclusion, The Big Jiujitsu Show is a podcast worth checking out for anyone interested in BJJ or MMA. It provides informative and entertaining content through its interviews with various voices in the BJJ community, its conversations about current events and other interests, and its laid-back yet knowledgeable hosts. While it may not always stick strictly to BJJ topics, it offers something for everyone and keeps listeners engaged with its unique blend of humor and insight.
