In this episode of Head, Heart, and Boots, Brandon and I sit down with Alejandro to unpack what ten years inside one of the toughest jiu jitsu cultures in the country can teach us about leadership, loyalty, and personal growth. We dig into how a broken season in his life led him to a mentor who changed everything, why the Daisy Fresh laundromat became a proving ground for world class competitors, and how the same principles that shape great fighters also shape great teams. Hope you enjoy Chris Why You Should Listen [00:02:36] How one mentor's belief and availability created lifelong loyalty and a culture people wanted to be part of [00:11:03] What living and training in an old laundromat taught fighters about discipline, discomfort, and eliminating excuses [00:21:00] The long, unglamorous process behind becoming a world class grappler and why consistency beats talent over time [00:25:39] How wrestling and jiu jitsu build confidence, emotional control, and character in kids and adults alike [00:36:05] How Alejandro revived a dead high school program by applying the same leadership principles that shaped him on the mat Did you know...

In this episode, I sit down with BJJ Brown Belt Kyle Rocke from Crazy 88 MMA to talk through how he found Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and what shaped his early development on the mats. Kyle shares what originally drew him toward martial arts, how his time in the Marines influenced his mindset, and how he moved from Krav Maga into BJJ. We look back at his first year training at Ivey League MMA, including those late 11 p.m. classes, the early learning curve, and the challenge of balancing training with everyday life. Kyle reflects on the people who guided him, coaches like Danny Ives and the upper belts who played key roles in his progression. He also revisits the early moments that confirmed he was on the right path, including how his background in rock climbing helped him adapt to training in the gi. We continue by examining his growth from white to blue belt and the lessons that carried him into purple and now brown belt. Kyle talks about managing plateaus, injuries, and periods of self-doubt, as well as what has kept him consistent through the grind. He shares how teaching and mentoring others changed his perspective, and how competition shaped his development and his thoughts on competing again. Outside of BJJ, we talk about how training has impacted his life at work, at home, and in how he stays grounded. Kyle opens up about the habits, hobbies, and routines that help him stay balanced and what advice he gives beginners who struggle to maintain consistency. We wrap up with a quick rapid-fire round.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, I sit down with Mendi Carlson and Kari Summers to talk about the Unbreakable Jiu-Jitsu Women's Camp coming in February of 2026 and the work they're doing to strengthen community and support women on the mats. We discuss how the idea for the camp developed, what it takes to build a space where women can train without pressure, and how the weekend format will bring together training, connection, and shared experience. Mendi and Kari explain how their paths in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu shaped their approach to leadership and why creating a women's-only environment has become an important part of their mission. We explore their views on competition, mindset, and the technical areas they believe make the biggest difference for women as they progress in the sport. We also talk through the challenges of organizing safe and constructive open mats, maintaining a safe culture during training, and planning for the future event. Whether you're new to jiu-jitsu, a competitor, or someone interested in building stronger training communities, this conversation offers insight into the purpose behind Unbreakable and how it continues to evolve.

In this episode, Regent grad and spiritual director Carolyn Watts shares about her life and learnings from serving as an obstetrician in Afghanistan until a debilitating chronic illness (POTS) ended her medical career. Reflecting on her memoir, Risking Rest, Carolyn shares how her obstetrical training gave her images for interpreting God's intimate care for us, as well as His invitations to us to rest from our labours. Carolyn also shares about the gifts of singleness, trusting God in challenging circumstances, and living a restful life with God amid pressures, demands and personal limitations. Throughout the conversation, she conveys God's gentleness and loving kindness, which continues to meet her in her limits, enabling her to relinquish her drivenness.Carolyn's BioCarolyn Watts is an obstetrician, author, and spiritual director. She completed an MATS at Regent College, where she began working on Risking Rest: Embracing God's Love Through Life's Uncertainties. In her memoir, she shares her experience of living and working in Afghanistan, and her journey with chronic illness that prevented her from continuing to practice medicine, but led her deeper into the heart of God. Born in Ontario and raised in Nova Scotia, Carolyn is preparing to return to Nova Scotia after living in Vancouver for the past sixteen years.Regent College Podcast Thanks for listening.

Efter ett drygt års paus drar Edward Blom och Mats Ryd nu igång sin smörgårdsbordspodd igen. Signaturmelodin, samtalsämnena och alkoholromantiken är intakta, så att alla lyssnare kan känna sig helt trygga – men ljudteknikern Anders Lundström är ny, och kanske har de tvenne poddpratarna några fler repor i lacken än tidigare. Eller "med lite mer wabisabi", som Mats uttrycker det.Under inmundigande av lite belgisk öl och en hel del champagne diskuterar de tu hösten som varit, exempelvis Edwards "55-årsfest, med en air av 50-årsfirande", vad han gjorde i Visby domkyrka nyligen och listeria-utbrottet på krogen Coco&Carmen i Stockholm.På uppdrag av en lyssnare listar de fem goda eller rentav mycket goda anledningar till att dricka alkohol, men de hinner inte riktigt komma fram till om hinkgroggen "Yngsjömordet" – apropå ännu en lyssnarfråga – skulle kunna vara en sjätte eller ej (troligen inte).Mats oroar sig för att Edward ska drabbas av "Barbara Streisand-effekten" och tillsammans lanserar de begreppet "åsten", vilket syftar på någon eller något som är "till åsyn i en rännsten" (exempelvis en kandidat för det av Bellman påhittade sällskapet Bacchi Orden).Välkomna att skicka lyssnarfrågor till: podden@edwardblom.se !

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, Coach Brandon “Thor” Davis returns to reflect on training at Ivey League MMA, his current work at Crazy 88, and how his approach to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai has evolved. We talk about the role of specialists in modern MMA and how coaching and teaching influence personal growth on and off the mats. The conversation shifts briefly to football and NFL officiating, and how decision-making and rule enforcement relate to combat sports. Thor and I discuss what makes someone a reliable teammate, why proper drilling matters, and which techniques we prefer, or try to avoid during training. We also look at the challenges that shape long-term progress before closing the episode with a round of rapid-fire questions.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Catherine Priggs and Hugh Richards, co-authors of Secondary History in Action, to dig into what great history curriculum and leadership look like in practice. They discuss starting with a clear departmental vision, making brave choices about what to include (and exclude), and balancing school context with disciplinary integrity. Along the way they unpack ideas like core and hinterland knowledge, Richard Kennett's museum curation analogy, and why non-specialist teaching makes a rich hinterland even more vital. Catherine shares insights from international curriculum work, while Hugh reflects on training hundreds of subject leaders and the realities of mandated trust curricula. The conversation also tackles assessment, examining extended writing in history as well as the kinds of tasks to avoid - before showcasing how scholarship-anchored enquiries can make the discipline sing. The book's design contains QR-linked routes into Historical Association resources, offering a practical portal for teachers who want exemplification, not just principles. It's an energising, example-rich tour of how to build ambitious, coherent history curricula that pupils remember and love.Catherine Priggs is an education consultant who specialises in history education and whole-school leadership.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, Carly DuCharme shares how beginning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at 35, during recovery from surgery, shifted from rehabilitation to a commitment to personal growth and competition. Carly, a purple belt and Masters competitor, explains why she chose to compete only three months after starting and why waiting to “feel ready” often slows progress. She discusses the emotional and practical lessons learned through early competition, how stepping into a match exposes technical gaps more efficiently than regular training, and the difference between fearing a loss and fearing being seen attempting something challenging.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Alun Francis OBE - Chief Executive of Blackpool and The Fylde College and Chair of the UK Social Mobility Commission - for a wide-ranging conversation about further education (FE), the importance of pedagogy in post-16 education, and what genuine upward mobility looks like in real communities. Alun traces the origins of his FE reform work (including the early “Teaching for Distinction” collaboration with Tom) and explains why knowledge, practice, and assessment must be tightly aligned across vocational programmes - from hair and beauty to motor vehicle and nautical training. He argues that inclusion is achieved first and foremost through everyday instructional design (“who remembers what, and who gets to think?”), and welcomes qualification reforms that prioritise retention and end-point assessment. The trio also unpack Alun's place-based view of social mobility - valuing skilled work, health, family and belonging, not simply income - and his contextual stance on pastoral care: compassion matters, but the core job is great teaching that changes life chances.Alun Francis OBE is the Chair of the Social Mobility Commission and Principal and Chief Executive of Blackpool and The Fylde College. Blackpool and the Fylde College is an award winning organisation and is one of the largest and highest performing further education colleges in the country.

Hooked rugs are humble things made of recycled cloth and worn out textiles, originally born of need and lack: and yet they have come to mean much more to the communities that produced and enjoyed them. In America they have become an emblem of homespun pioneer thrift and self-reliance and an important element in the definition of a certain kind of national values. Handmade hooked rugs are the stuff of everyday life, but in Canada they became a vital form of income for impoverished seafaring families in Labrador and Newfoundland. And in northern England and southern Scotland they brightened up the hearth of many rural and urban working-class homes. But in the far north of the British Isles a very different tradition developed where sewn pile rugs came to play a role as vital protection for sleeping bodies against night time trolls and witches. Join us as we explore the many forms of hooky, proggy, proddy, clooty, clippy, stobby, and bodgy rugs that have spread around the world.

Annabelle Christie's journey through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu began like many others—with curiosity and uncertainty—but her progression from white belt to IBJJF Pan Champion reveals the discipline behind early success. In this conversation, Annabelle reflects on her first classes, the challenges of balancing school with training, and the moments that shaped her competitive mindset. She discusses how training at Crazy 88 influenced her development, what she learned from competing across divisions, and how she approaches the mental side of preparing for major tournaments. Annabelle also shares her thoughts on adapting to purple-belt competition, refining her technique, and the lessons she's learned from testing herself against larger opponents. The episode closes with insight into her future goals in BJJ, her life away from the mats, and the values that continue to guide her as both an athlete and a person.

"Be on-time, put out the extra effort. ... No matter what you're going to be in life, be the best." --Owner-operator John Treadway on his motivation through the years Raised to “be the best” at whatever he did, owner-operator John Treadway is clearly working hard to achieve that lofty goal with his one-truck business. It's a two-truck business, actually, with Treadway trucking with his own authority mostly in a stunningly beautiful 1998 Peterbilt 379 he calls "Teal Appeal," but with a 2006-model Pete kept as a spare to run in winter, and as a failsafe to serve his central customer. Treadway was Overdrive's Trucker of the Month for September, featured in this story by Senior Editor Matt Cole, whose long talk with Treadway makes up the bulk of this week's podcast: https://overdriveonline.com/15767883 Owner-operator John Treadway hauls flowers year-round for a greenhouse operation near his base in Kokomo, Indiana, with his Tway (prounced TEE-Way) Rose Transport, now with authority for going on a decade after some decades more leased to other companies. His story stretches back to his start trucking with the 1990 purchase of a 1985 Kenworth Liberty Edition cabover he used to haul grain with his older brother, eventually moving on to pull flatbeds and a variety of other trailers. It's reefer work these days for the flower operation, and since we saw his tractor at MATS early this year he's put work into a 2017 Great Dane reefer to match the lines and colors of "Teal Appeal" 1998 Pete, as you'll hear in the podcast today. Yet so much of Treadway's approach to trucking he traces to the time before he ever held a steering wheel, his life built in the business on top of those be-the-best values instilled at an early age along with admiration of truck drivers whose names he may have never known but from whom he garnered examples to which to aspire. Along with business brass tacks he keeps early lessons learned ever at the front his mind about what it takes to build success as a one-truck owner, and to have a little fun along the way. "One of my good friends told me a long, long time ago, 'To be an owner-operator, that's a 364-day-a year job,'" Treadway said. "You're driving through the day, you're hauling the loads, but it doesn't stop. The weekend comes, and you've got repairs to do, and then on top of that if you want to add a piece of chrome or something, you have to try to fit all that in. There's just a grind to it. You've just gotta keep grinding, and keep moving forward."

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Mike Hobbiss - teacher, researcher, and author - to dive into the science of attention and what it means for everyday teaching. Mike shares what he uncovered during his PhD and subsequent research about attention in real classrooms (and that its main detractors are peers, mind-wandering, background noise, and phones) and why seating, routines, and explicit expectations matter. The trio unpack how to cue attention in space (gestures and precise directions) and in time (test expectancy and the “forward testing” effect), arguing that managing attention is a social-justice issue that can help level the playing field. They contrast primary and secondary contexts, debate rows vs. groups, and explore how teachers can use research without drowning in excess workload, but mostly, they just want you to pay attention! Mike spent 8 years teaching Psychology, both in the UK and abroad, before taking time out of the classroom to complete a PhD investigating attention and distraction in everyday environments, focusing especially on classrooms and other educational settings. He has published research on attention, distraction, memory and mood in educational settings, as well on teacher habit formation. Back in the classroom since 2020, he is currently Head of Psychology at a school in Lincolnshire. He is the author of How to Teach Psychology: An evidence-informed approach and you can find his blog at https://hobbolog.wordpress.com/Tom Sherrington has worked in schools as a teacher and leader for 30 years and is now a consultant specialising in teacher development and curriculum & assessment planning.
