The Gummy Bears & Guard Pulls Weekly Podcast For People To Listen To When Going About Their Day (And Doing Other Stuff Too) (

Jacob Ligon stops by the pick needless arguments with your agreeable host!

I mumble on about books I'm reading.

I deliriously ramble about what the definition of "martial arts" are.

Sleepy Joe stops by and we end up just shooting the shit. Joe cooks good food and has good jiu-jitsu. He's pretty great.

I introduce a new segment where I trash yelp reviews and tell you how to put your diet and exercise together to lose weight forever! This gets pretty explicit so you should probably use headphones...

Diet & Exercise are all most people need to lose weight. I ramble about the exercise portion of that equation.

I tell you part of what I did to lose 20 pounds and keep it off. Mostly because no one else would talk to me.

How's that for a click-baity title? In my desperation for content, I've started to make it a habit of recording two episodes from one interview. This one might make me rethink the practice, as much as I enjoyed it.

Mr. K comes on the podcast to talk about teaching high school science, brewing beer, and finding the challenges that interest you.

Our episode with Derrick Demaio continues. After our interview, we ended up talking about self-doubt, having a good attitude, and Derrick shares some incredible stories of rage quitting jobs.

The cool version of the cool dad Derrick Demaio stops by and talks about being from the same town as The Fighter, learning to sail a boat, and why he still counts every person whenever he gets in an elevator.

Husband, father, dog owner, Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, fighter, gym owner, property manager, and veteran Nick Cimm stops by to discuss his teaching philosophy, how he got to where he's at, and why you shouldn't be an asshole.

Government employee "Bob" explains how to get a PhD, why chemistry is art, and how he can't help but be a meathead. The conversation was edited down for the sake of clarity. Mostly because we can't talk without rambling into unrelated tangents. I should also chill out with my intros.

  Pilates instructor/storyteller/jiu-jitsu badass Natasha Tsoutsouris joins me to kick off the inaugural Gummy Bears & Guard Pulls podcast. We talk about what pilates is, getting started in jiu-jitsu, and I forget to ask what it's like to get started as a female in such a male dominated sport.
