In Part 2 of our conversation with Elicia Ybarra, she unpacks her path to healing through EMDR trauma therapy. She realized how buried triggers from years of grooming and abuse sabotaged her marriage and self-defense curriculum development, leading to a near-separation and inability to be touched even by her son. She broke down her "Pretty Hands, Hard Punches" empowerment model. We also discussed why stats show 975/1000 sexual assault perpetrators walk free, the red flags of abuse, multi-layered boundaries (emotional, time, social), and the "think, yell, run, fight, tell" progression with simple, realistic strikes like palm heels to the nose (tested by board-breaking!).Elicia shared red flags for parents: how to check for safe martial arts schools (check one-star reviews, watch instructor interactions, run background checks via Academy Safe, avoid MMA locker-room culture), how unquestioning obedience grooms kids to ignore gut instincts, and practical family rules like no adult secrets with children and always respecting "no" to hugs.Be sure to follow Elicia on her website, prettyhandshardpunches.com, or on Facebook or Instagram @prettyhandshardpunches.Trigger warning: This episode contains frank discussion of sexual assault statistics and low conviction rates, trauma triggers/panic attacks, strangulation, and stalking/harassment.Also…let it be known that:The views and opinions expressed on A Little Bit Culty do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

Today's guest is a lifelong athlete whose competitive spirit carried him from the wrestling mats of small-town North Dakota to the bright lights of the UFC Octagon. Chris Tuchscherer was raised in Rugby, North Dakota, where he built his foundation in wrestling, a discipline that would shape not only his athletic career, but his approach to life. After a standout high school run, he continued competing at North Dakota State University before transferring to Minnesota State University Moorhead, where he became a two-time NCAA Division II All-American. That same relentless drive propelled him into mixed martial arts. Known to fans as “The Crowbar,” Chris became a feared heavyweight with crushing wrestling, unshakable toughness, and a reputation for outworking anyone standing across from him. His impressive professional career earned him a spot on the sport's biggest stage, where he competed in the UFC against some of the division's most formidable names. Beyond the cage, Chris has remained deeply invested in the growth of combat sports in his home state. He founded Crowbar MMA and promoted regional MMA events in North Dakota, events I was lucky enough to be involved with as a judge. But stepping away from fighting didn't mean stepping away from competition. Staying true to his blue-collar roots, Chris shifted gears, literally, into IMCA dirt track racing, where he now brings the same intensity and passion he once showed in the cage. Alongside racing, he runs his agricultural businesses and remains closely connected to the communities that shaped him. A wrestler.A fighter.A racer.A businessman.A husband and a father. Please enjoy my interview with my friend Chris Tuchscherer.

This is a preview of the latest Skull Boys episode. You can unlock the entire episode here on patreon which I'm sure you would enjoy and it would support me financially so that I can keep doing this, hope you are getting some free time during Christmas and New Year. Original episode description: We have now in this series finally arrived at the episode that many of you have been waiting for. The episode about the mysterious Männerbund. We are picking up an old thread fist explored in the Stargate Conspiracy with Reid and Colin but also elaborated upon and hinted at in the first season of the Skull Boys.There are many of you who suspect that Joe Rogan's fame is not the consequence of organic development. We will never know just how that ascension took place but we can study the history of this think tank's knowledge production. The first person to ever come on to the show to attempt to lay forth a cosmology if you like, that is to say a guest who was not one of Rogans comedy buddies or MMA pals, was according to Rogan and the man himself, Graham Hancock.Exploring the idea-historical roots and the personal linage of Hancock, we will take to you to the early days of the great proto-fascistic split of the Theosophical Society in the early 1900s. We will take you to the days of Blavatsky's coming-on-to-the-scene in the 1870s and deeper still to the Spiritualist genesis in March 31, 1848, fuck it, we will take you back to the first arioheroic Swastikalers as they went underground during the masonic bans of the late 1700s.And we will show why Rogan has been told to tell his followers to believe in the strength of the Männerbund.So get out that Christmas drink or spliff or long distance walking boots because I know you will enjoy this one.PS. I made a 5 hour! long screen recording of me making tonight's episode cover art but somehow the file was corrupted and so I will have to make you another version of that screen recording in a short while to show you how I go about making these.Music: Kebnekajse - Horgalåten Lars Hollmer - Boeves Psalm Ted Gärdestad - I dröm och fantasi Broder Daniel - Underground Barry McGuire - Eve Of DestructionFilms: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade 1989 Choosing Grail scene The German General's Speech - Band of Brothers Secret societies of Ancient Egypt - Graham Hancock and Lex FridmanGraham Hancock - A lost civilization and secret societies

With just a couple of days left in the year, it's almost time to say goodbye to 2025, and hello to 2026. In the sport of MMA, there was certainly a lot to like this past year — and a lot that needs to be improved upon, from the UFC, to PFL, and beyond. On an all-new edition of Between the Links, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew bring you the fourth annual BTL Promotional Festivus — where they grade the UFC for their 2025 performance, both in and out of the octagon, along with their airing of grievances for things that happened negatively throughout the course of the year. Additionally, the duo do the same for PFL, BKFC, and give their thoughts on things they did better from the year prior, other ideas to bring into 2026, and what could be the breakout promotion in the space for the upcoming year.
