This week we're diving into the topic of combatives, and it would be hard to find a more qualified guest to discuss the topic than the one we have today. From bare-knuckle boxing the ROK Marines' Taekwondo champion to establish the US Army Combatives School, he has done it all. Matt Larsen is a former United States Army Ranger and combatives instructor. He is known as "The Father of Modern Combatives," credited with the creation of the United States Army's modern combatives doctrine and the establishment of the U.S. Army Combatives School. Larsen enlisted in the United States Marine Corps as an infantryman in 1984. He was stationed overseas in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan with the Marine detachment at Naval Air Facility Atsugi. During this time Larsen began training in judo, Shotokan karate, and traditional boxing. During his time in Japan Larsen fought in the Japan Karate Association's All Japan Karate Championships, Muay Thai bouts in Thailand, and a bare-knuckle fight against the ROK Marines Taekwondo champion. He was also a member of the 3rd Marine Division's boxing team. Matt then transitioned from the Marine Corps to the Army and made his way to Ranger Regiment. Initially assigned to 1st Ranger Battalion at Hunter Army Airfield, Larsen parachuted into Panama with the Rangers during Operation Just Cause and was also involved in Ranger operations during the Gulf War. After moving to 2nd Ranger Battalion he found himself as the Non-Commissioned Officer in Charge of combatives and Close Quarters Battle (CQB) and started developing a more formal curriculum. This led him to taking over the combatives program for the entire regiment. During an assignment to 11th Infantry Regiment he establish a combatives schoolhouse in a warehouse. Within a short time, the school became so successful that units from throughout the Army began sending their soldiers. Several new courses had to be developed in order to continue teaching beyond the initial course, with the idea of building programs within these units. Eventually the school was recognized by the Army as the "United States Army Combatives School". In 2002, the training manual which he had been working on since his time with the Ranger Training Brigade was published by the Army as Field Manual 3-25.150 (Combatives). After more than a decade leading combatives for the Army he now works at West Point's Department of Physical Education as the director of their combatives program. You can find Matt on Instagram at the extremely appropriate handle @combatives

North Dakota State's football season has reached the semifinal round for the 12th time in the last 13 years.   The Bison (11-3) who were left for dead by the hosts of this podcast after a 49-24 loss to the University of North Dakota on October 14, are still playing football. They have a chance to make Frisco for the 11th time in the last 13 years Saturday afternoon in Missoula, Montana against the second seeded Grizzlies.   The game seems like an afterthought to some, as the school is in the midst of a head coaching search. Matt Entz announced on Sunday he was leaving NDSU for a job at USC to become the assistant defensive coach and linebackers coach for the Trojans.   As the show was recorded on Thursday afternoon, no coach had been named yet for the Bison. Athletic director Matt Larsen said he wanted to move quickly to find the next head coach, with National Signing Day looming on Wednesday.   The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo discuss the search for the next head coach and discuss the matchup as the Bison and Griz meet in the playoffs for the third time, and for the first time the game is at Washington-Grizzly Stadium.

For the entire transcript of the interview, please click here. Dr. Matthew F. Larsen is a dedicated and compassionate psychiatrist with a unique blend of medical expertise and artistic flair. Hailing from his hometown of Idaho Falls, Dr. Larsen's journey has been marked by a commitment to healing minds and hearts through his dual board certifications in adult and child psychiatry. Dr. Larsen has a strong interest in suicide prevention and in helping teens who are chronically suicidal or self-harming. Outside the realm of medicine, Dr. Larsen's artistic spirit shines. With hobbies ranging from acting to singing, he infuses his patients' lives with joy by entertaining them through song, dance, and even an Irish accent. His diverse interests are a testament to his well-rounded approach to healing. What You'll Learn In this episode, Dr. Larsen shares that integrating music into your life, even if it's not a full-blown career, can have numerous benefits for your well-being and personal growth. Having something that brings happiness outside of work is essential for maintaining a well-rounded and balanced life. He also emphasizes that success goes beyond traditional measures and metrics, focusing on a holistic and meaningful approach to life. It is more about the emotional experience it brings than the external accomplishments. It's about feeling content, fulfilled, and genuinely happy with where you are in life. Things We Discussed Dr. Matt Larsen encourages us to approach our desire to help others with balance, sustainability, and a focus on making a lasting impact. It aligns with the principle that even small, consistent efforts can lead to significant positive change, both in the lives of others and in your own well-being. In order to have a healthy work schedule, we should always take into consideration that the journey is a marathon, not a sprint.
