Longtime friend of the show Phoenix Carnevale reprises her esteemed guest co-host duties in Matt Serra's absence, joining Jim Norton for an episode that features two fighters from this Saturday's UFC Atlanta card: welterweight contender Joaquin Buckley and light heavyweight veteran Paul Craig. The show opens with Jim and Phoenix reacting to UFC 316 — including Sean O'Malley's response to his loss to Merab — before Joaquin calls in mid-track workout to discuss his mindset ahead of his main event clash against Kamaru Usman. Later, Paul Craig reflects on his rocky run at middleweight, what he learned about himself through after going through more demanding weight cuts, and how he's channeling those lessons ahead of his 20th UFC appearance and a return to light heavyweight in Saturday's featured prelim bout against Rodolfo Bellato. While Jim and Phoenix don't make any predictions of their own, the two set the table for UFC Atlanta by previewing some of this Saturday's dynamic matchups.

When most people think about innovation, law firms don't usually come to mind; Zack Oliva is working to change that. In this episode, Jared Simmons talks with Zack, Managing Partner at Oliva Gibbs and founder of Oliva Partners Management, about how innovation in professional services isn't always about new technology or radical inventions. Sometimes, it starts with running things a little differently.Zack shares how treating his law firm like a business--with a clear strategy, leadership team, defined culture, and coaching-based development--has positioned it as a forward-thinking force in the energy sector. He also offers a candid look at the promise and pitfalls of AI in the legal field, what spreadsheets and digital courthouses have done for the oil and gas industry, and why innovation starts with a willingness to embrace uncertainty without fear.The episode also explores deeper themes: the emotional intelligence required for entrepreneurial leadership, the fine line between risk and danger, and how reframing tough decisions can make innovation more accessible. If you've ever wrestled with fear-based decision-making or wondered what innovation looks like outside of tech startups, this episode is for you.Chapters:00:00 — Introduction to Zack Oliva01:19 — Redefining innovation: invention vs. improvement02:45 — Running a law firm like a business04:28 — AI in law: ethics, risks, and opportunities06:26 — Operational innovation in legal services09:28 — Innovation in oil and gas data & drilling13:31 — Why the energy sector demands constant innovation14:24 — Avoiding bureaucracy and staying nimble15:37 — Innovation ≠ decisions made in fear17:47 — Reframing risk: uncertainty vs. danger20:50 — The “go get the bread” metaphor for risk-taking22:06 — Balancing risk with reputation in law24:25 — Managing ego and team-based decision-making25:34 — Advice for innovators: trust your gut and your peopleAbout the Guest:Zack Oliva is the Managing Partner of Oliva Gibbs LLP, a firm known for its deep expertise in the energy sector.

Jim Norton and guest co-host Din Thomas are joined by MMA legend Bas Rutten for a lively recap of UFC 316. Din gives props to Bas for his unique insight into both the streetfighting mindset and high-level martial arts, setting the stage for Bas to break down what stood out most on the card — including how Joshua Van reminds him of a young Max Holloway. Bas has so much fun he sticks around when UFC bantamweight champ Kayla Harrison calls in. She reflects on her Olympic roots, the emotions behind her recent victory, and whether a showdown with Amanda Nunes might be on the horizon.

In this episode, we're joined by Francesco Fonte, MMA and Jiu-Jitsu head coach from Sportschule Next Level in Germany! Francesco explores the idea of Jiu-Jitsu as a team sport. He explains how fostering a relaxed, playful training environment not only builds community but also accelerates learning by encouraging experimentation and removing the fear of mistakes. Drawing on his experiences organizing camps and running a diverse gym, Francesco highlights the value of humor, inside jokes, and a “third place” culture where people feel at home on the mats. Together, they discuss how hobbyists and competitors alike can thrive in inclusive gyms that prioritize connection over competition.Follow Francesco on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/francescofonte76Mental models discussed in this episode:Gamificationhttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/gamification/Keep it Playfulhttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/keep-it-playful/Self-Competitonhttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/self-competition/Don't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.

I had the chance to sit down with Harley Flanagan — punk pioneer, founding member of the Cro-Mags, and the subject of the new feature-length documentary, HARLEY FLANAGAN: WIRED FOR CHAOS. Directed by Emmy and Peabody Award-winner Rex Miller, this no-holds-barred film dives into Harley's life — from the violent streets of ‘70s New York to the hardcore scene that defined a generation.This isn't just about music — it's about survival. Abuse, addiction, squats, street fights, punk gigs, Jiu-Jitsu, fatherhood — Harley's lived through it all. And the film, which features interviews with Flea, Henry Rollins, Ice T, Michael Imperioli, and the late Anthony Bourdain, shows a side of him many haven't seen before.Now, quick heads up — there's a slight audio issue on my end during this episode. I didn't realize my mic wasn't plugged in, so you'll hear me through my laptop's onboard mic. It's definitely listenable, just a bit rougher than usual — but honestly, it kind of fits the vibe of this episode.So with that, let's get into it. This is Harley Flanagan — loud, raw, and real
Send feedback for the showWelcome back to Rizzology! In this episode, Nick and Tom DeGiuli are hanging out in the studio. We kick things off talking about live podcasting, crazy travel schedules, and how Hyrox is blowing up as the new CrossFit.From there, it's a wild ride: they swap stories about fitness cults, the Liver King scandal, influencer marketing gone rogue, and just how weird social media can get—yes, including selling bathwater and OnlyFans drama. There's plenty of joking around, some surprisingly deep talk about chasing trends, being real with yourself, and what it means to actually be happy with your body and your life, even as the internet keeps changing the game.00:00 Live Streaming & Travel Reflections07:25 "Wrestling with Authenticity and Persona"14:56 Marine Biologist's Thrilling Passion19:54 AI Creations Need Watermarks22:22 Social Media Overload Impact27:13 Fragmented Follower Engagement Issues32:08 "Lion or Sheep Dilemma"38:24 "Seeking Connection and Attention"45:16 Gym's Next Chapter: Jiu Jitsu?47:44 Training Girls in Self-Defense57:24 Finding Personal Happiness in Fitness01:02:37 Life Choices and Expansion Dilemma01:03:27 Expanding for Business Growth01:12:40 Transformative Late-Night Workouts01:16:10 Designing an Innovative Gym Space01:19:31 "Consult God Before Church Visit"Support the showYouTubeInstagram Tik Tok We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode!

What happens when a prospect says, “I have time tomorrow at 2 pm”? In today's episode, Matthew and Micah compare this situation to being put into a Jiu-Jitsu chokehold and discuss how to navigate this situation in a calm way. You will hear tips on how to lay a solid foundation for your process of success and how to explain it to your clients in a way that demonstrates its value to them. Listen in as the guys break down how making exceptions for a client is actually going to take away from the value you provide. They also discuss the importance of setting very clear expectations (and how to be firm with them), how not to waver when it comes to your process, and more.

You can drill berimbolos 'til your hips explode, but if your corner can't guide a match you'll still walk home with participation pics. In this episode of The I Suck at Jiu Jitsu Show, I(@thejoshmckinney) flip the camera to the coach's side: how to build a battle-ready team, run chaos-free tournament days, and yell the right words when everything's on the line.Inside you'll get:Pre-tourney prep: rule-set hacks, positional sparring that actually matters, and the “Hail-Mary” plan every squad needs.Individual dialing-in: managing nerves with ISAJJ breathing, stopping dumb weight cuts, and scouting that first opponent.Game-day systems: team HQ setups, synchronized warm-ups, match-time tracking, and why assistant coaches are your secret weapon.Live-match coaching: one-voice recognition, “next-fight” cueing (underhook, keep 'em flat!), time awareness, and a stealth code-word for stalling.Post-match debriefs: 15-second fix-it notes between rounds and big-picture goals that keep momentum rolling long after the medals.Whether you're a seasoned professor or the blue belt who drew the short straw to coach Saturday, this blueprint will help your athletes compete calmer, smarter, and—most importantly—win more matches.
In this week's mini-episode we discuss how the map is not the territory, a foundational concept for working with mental models and other abstractions. The key lesson: no "map" is a 100% accurate reflection of the territory it describes. Similarly, no Jiu-Jitsu "concept" is 100% applicable all the time...including this one!

This one's raw. Off the back of a coaching call where a client came in full of hype but empty on action — we're unpacking the brutal truth most men avoid:
It's Matt Serra's 51st birthday — and what better way to celebrate than with a few surprise guests? Matt correctly guesses Din Thomas as part one of his birthday surprise — but it's the unexpected call from bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili that really makes his day. Merab joins ahead of his highly anticipated rematch against Sean O'Malley at UFC 316 in Newark. Din sticks around to co-host with Jim and Matt, as the guys share plenty of laughs before welcoming welterweight Ramiz Brahimaj. Fresh off a 1st-round submission win, Brahimaj opens up about his mindset heading into the fight and what's next for him in the division. Later, the crew breaks down the highlights from last weekend's card and weighs in on how Erin Blanchfield's scratched bout with Maycee Barber could affect the title picture for Valentina Shevchenko.
In this episode of BJJ Mental Models, Steve Kwan welcomes back Sonia Sillan from Combat Arts Academy to explore the concept of the “awkward turtles:” the introverted, unsure, or atypical students who often feel like outsiders in Jiu-Jitsu. Sonya unpacks how gym culture, coaching priorities, and interpersonal communication affect whether these students feel welcome or alienated. Together, they discuss how creating an inclusive, empathetic training environment isn't just good for business; it's essential for building resilient practitioners and a healthy mat culture. This conversation offers a roadmap for coaches and students alike to rethink how they engage with the most vulnerable members of their gym.Follow Sonia on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/soniasillanTrain with Sonia at Combat Arts Academy in Seattle:https://caaseattle.com/Mental models discussed in this episode:Jita Kyoeihttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/jita-kyoei/Compatible Intenthttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/compatible-intent/Controlled Breathinghttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/controlled-breathing/Staying Loosehttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/staying-loose/Escalation of Commitmenthttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/escalation-of-commitment/The Golden Rulehttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/golden-rule/Don't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.

It's a jiu-jitsu kind of show today! Matt and his jiu-jitsu buddy Jimmy welcome a pair of elite grapplers for their first-ever appearances on UFC Unfiltered in Ffion Davies and William Tackett. Set to headline next Thursday's UFC Fight Pass Invitational 11, Ffion shares her journey into submission grappling and what it means to ink an exclusive deal with the UFC. With her Australian rival Adele Fornarino looking to even the score after a 2022 loss, Ffion breaks down her mindset heading into their rematch. Later, William Tackett joins the show to talk about growing up in a family that eats, sleeps, and breathes jiu-jitsu — and how that led to marrying a fellow grappler. He previews his upcoming clash with 18-year-old phenom Achilles Rocha and reflects on life, love, and grappling under pressure.
