The history and invention of Peppermint Patty Day dates way back centuries ago. Historically, the making of this bundle of deliciousness started in the Quiggin family, who made the first production of the patty on the Isle of Man, a Northern Irish Sea island in the year 1840. Commercial production of Peppermint Patty proliferated and spread across to other regional in 1900. The most remarkable of these companies was York Cone Company, whose first production called the York peppermint patty became renowned from 1940 till 1972 when Peter Paul bought the company and sold the product for another five years before merging with Cadbury in 1975...until Hershey bought the peppermint patty in 1988.  

Ruth Townend is joined in the studio by Gwynne Dyer, author of Climate Wars, and Chatham House's own Dr Daniel Quiggin to talk about climate solutions from the magical to the mundane. For his forthcoming book Intervention Earth, Dyer has spoken with more than 50 thinkers, innovators and engineers about how we might cool the planet and avoid catastrophe. Dyer, Quiggin and Townend explore the potential of unicorns, workhorses, and the odd dark horse technology, discuss the moral hazard of reliance on unproven technology, and consider the role of both technology and governance in meeting the Paris Agreement goals.  You can find out more about Gwynne Dyer's work on his website, and read Daniel Quiggin's work on the role of the aviation industry in reaching net zero on the Chatham House website.

Trying to follow the key macroeconomic debates that are swirling around DC, CNBC, the WSJ and the NYT? If you are but don't want to go back to graduate school or re-open your college macroeconomics textbook, John Quiggin has a solution. His Economics in Two Lessons: Why Markets Work So Well, and Why They Can Fail So Badly (Princeton University Press, 2019) achieves several goals. First, it frames the current debates, providing a concise, well-written history of macroeconomics and the key twists and turns in economic policy that have brought us to our current state of (general) disagreement on economic policy. Second, he structures his view of macroeconomics as a rebuttal to a 1946 book by Henry Hazlitt in 1946 called Economics in One Lesson. Seventy years later, Quiggin counters Hazlitt's view that markets are "correct," in that their prices accurately reflect opportunity costs for buyers and sellers. Quiggin's second lesson highlights the externalities and factors that distort those opportunity costs and lead to suboptimal outcomes such as extended unemployment, excessive income inequality, and the seemingly intractable problem (from an economics perspective) of pollution. In the final portion of his book, Quiggin argues what policies he thinks would make markets work better by generating a more accurate understanding of opportunity costs. To some, his prescriptions will look like the program of the Left. The great irony is that his goal is to make markets function better, not rid us of them. Whether you agree with his prescriptions are not, this is a very interesting book and a great way for non-economists to get up to speed on current debates and policy issues without having to do a single test for statistical significance or worry about heteroscedasticity. Daniel Peris is Senior Vice President at Federated Investors in Pittsburgh. Trained as a historian of modern Russia, he is the author most recently of Getting Back to Business: Why Modern Portfolio Theory Fails Investors.

We discussed in detail that very day that gave him the title of "Subway Hero", what an amazing community the MMA provided, Dana White and his staff, the support of the internet when things got tough and SO MUCH MORE.

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 67 featuring a special sponsor showcase with the owner of Fat Boy BJJ himself, Juan Santiago! This was such a great episode (not like the rest aren't) but this truly was a lot of fun! Fat Boy BJJ has been a "sponsor" of mine for almost 50 episodes and we felt it was time to put a face to the brand and truly get to know Juan! Santiago talks about his journey in jiu-jitsu, being the big guy in the room and the difficulties he encountered after he was told that Jiu-Jitsu is "for everyone" yet he was unable to find a gi, or more specifically a matching gi, that fit his size and allowed him the movement needed. It was really for this reason that the Fat Boy Jiu-Jitsu brand came to life. Enjoy! Please visit QuigginOutPodcast.com and support the show.

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 66 featuring BJJ Legend and one of the nicest guys in all of MMA/BJJ, Master Ricardo Liborio! This episode start definitely caught me off guard because Master Liborio wanted me to tell everyone how we met. And as you can tell by watching, I was happy to oblige as it's a fun story that I DON'T think I have shared on the show before. Master Liborio and I go on to discuss the current state of Jiu-Jitsu, what he has been doing during the "Covid Era" and how the BJJ program at UCF is doing. For those who are reading this BEFORE watching the show, UCF currently offers Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as an accredited class, meaning it has tests, attendance and even a baseline curriculum that includes some Brazilian history. Please have a blast listening to Master Liborio speak as it's one of the rare episodes where most of talking is done by the guest and it's a lot to take in! Enjoy!

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 65 featuring recent Knucklemania 3 winner, BKFC Heavyweight Josh Watson! Right off the bat, we waste no time getting right into how many shows Watson has done this week, dealing with the new popularity and so much more. Watson's story about his day job and the run in with Human Resources was absolutely hilarious. Going a different route with this episode, we actually barely talked about Watson's MASSIVE win over Greg Hardy at Knucklemania 3 and focused more on the man outside of the squared circle. It's fantastic that even after seeing a leg break in BKFC and a knockout of the year candidate, Watson is the one getting all the well-deserved attention. Enjoy!

As mentioned on the show, Cruz was one of the first guests on the original Quiggin Out MMA Podcast so it was great to have him on the new and improved one.

We discussed everything from her tenure at BKFC, what the future holds for her, prior fights and how she wasn't supposed to win, finding love at BKFC, and what her life is like now that she's three months removed from winning the championship. Beltran just brings a swagger that isn't cocky or outlandish. It's from years of work and the time that she has put into herself and her life to make this a successful career move.

We get right into as Mundell talks about fighting his friend, winning the title, and how life after MMA birthed his entrance into the world of Bare-Knuckle fighting. This was a fun one as we've been watching Mundell fight from the amateur circuit all the way up to his current status as BKFC champion. Mundell talks about his only loss in BKFC and how there are a couple guys on the roster and some potentially upcoming that he wants to fight, including someone he's already fought twice in MMA.

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 61 and are back with one of the friends of the show and recently announced BKFC lightweight title challenger "The Gentleman of Violence" himself, Tom Shoaff!   We already know what you're going to say. Tom was just on the show just a mere 8 episodes ago. How much could have really changed since then? A LOT.  This episode was exciting to film as Shoaff has been INCREDIBLY vocal about deserving a title shot and he has finally achieved that opportunity.  Shoaff discusses his new mindset, being in the prime of his career and life (noting how cliche' that may sound) and really what he feels he will bring to the table that current champion Luis "Baboon" Palomino hasn't seen before.   This truly was a fun episode as are all appearances that Shoaff has made on the show and it's a super exciting time to be in the MMA journalism world and get the opportunity to dive into the minds of some of the best athletes in the world.  We spent a lot of time discussing Shoaff's recent promotion to BJJ Black Belt and what that means to him in a sport he can't use it in.  Enjoy!  Don't forget to head over to https://www.quigginoutpodcast.com/for all things Quiggin Out!   Also, a special shout-out to La Barba Cubano for supplying some amazing beard oil, @Tim_MakesKnives on Instagram, Fat Boy Jiu-Jitsu, Bertsos Bakeshop for making some delicious treats and our newest sponsor, The Concert Junkie!    Visit TALESOFACONCERTJUNKIE.MYSHOPIFY.COM and use promo code "Quiggin Out" for 15% off your order!

This episode digs deep into the world of Mental Health, what has changed since winning the belt and the amount of hats she wears on a day-to-day basis. It's really fascinating.

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 59 and have none other than current Bellator flyweight champion, Liz "Girl-Rilla" Carmouche! This episode had an incredible amount of significance as Carmouche was the first fighter that I interviewed ELEVEN years ago when I was just starting in the MMA journalism field. The nerves and panic were real and it was an amazing experience as this was the person who confirmed that this was something to pursue. We went down the rabbit hole, re-visiting those interview questions, and answers, all while discussing how much has changed in that time. Carmouche talks about being a mother, a wife, and most recently, a world champion with Bellator. This was a really fun episode to do and is full of so many stories and personal reflections. Carmouche holds nothing back when it comes to discussing her career, BKFC, her losses, and how her life has been impacted from a career as a mixed martial artist. Keep an eye out for the special guest who decides to be front and center multiple times during the show. It's quite hilarious. Enjoy!

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 58 and have none other than BJJ Black Belt, friend of the show and of course, Sapateiro 30 competitor, Kevin Gallagher!    Gallagher brings such a different approach to Jiu-Jitsu and life and we talk about it all. He really brings us into the lowest of lows and how life hit him with every submission it could, all at once. But Jiu-Jitsu became a beacon for growth and change.  This was a really fun episode and amazing guest to have on the show. Gallagher and I discussed his upcoming match with Bobby "White Trash" Emmonds. We discussed that nickname because you can't just ignore that in a conversation, his previous competitions and how he became a black belt after winning Worlds multiple times.   One of the coolest moments of this talk was Gallagher getting to talk about what it's like to be a school owner now and how in December, he'll be promoting his first student to a Black Belt. This student came to him from another gym and Gallagher discusses how he had to go all the way up the chain of command to get approval for this promotion. But it's incredibly well deserved and exciting.    The Old Man jokes abound in this one and it's all in good fun as I have a tremendous amount of respect for Gallagher and his teachings.   Sapateiro 30 goes down on August 7, 2022 starting at 5PM live from Tampa Florida and competitors will be fighting for a $10K max payout. eventbrite.com/e/sapateiro-30-the-205-division-tickets-353807055427 aff=ebdsoporgprofile&fbclid=IwAR3WNZ4jAF_S_8vdllLKsO6jU4pstDpS263w8B3QmlakLs2m1L4NDSkKfto   Enjoy!   Don't forget to head over to https://www.quigginoutpodcast.com/ for all things Quiggin Out!    Also, a special shout-out to La Barba Cubano for supplying some amazing beard oil, @Tim_MakesKnives on Instagram, Fat Boy Jiu-Jitsu and Bertsos Bakeshop for making some delicious treats. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/matt-quiggins/support

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 57 featuring The Godmother of Drumming, Dorothea Taylor and the one and only Jiu Jitsu Grandma! This episode was unlike anything I have ever done. It all started with my father, also a drummer, sharing a video of Taylor. I have been watching her for years and had this crazy idea to get her and Jiu-jitsu Grandma together. And it worked! So many things were brought to life in the course of our conversation. We discussed how crucial having a hobby is, how important it is to stay active and how it's never too late to start doing something you love. Taylor started drumming in her early teens. Elaine aka Jiu-jitsu Grandma didn't start training until she was 69. Yes you read that right. We discussed so much and hopefully you have as much fun watching/listening as I did speaking with these two. Jiu-jitsu Grandma also issued me a challenge to compete which I happily accept. She also reminded me that she is ranked #1 in the world in her division. Enjoy! Don't forget to head over to https://www.quigginoutpodcast.com/ for all things Quiggin Out!

For those of you who are unaware why this episode is so important, go ahead and watch the link below first before listening to this episode. https://fb.watch/dBKm3WnE8X/ around the 137 minute mark ... Eddie was in the middle of documenting the weigh-ins when he learned that one of the fights would be cancelled and decided he would step up and take the fight. It's insane. Stache Mouth, as he'll be referred to, and I really had a great time discussing the love of MMA, what it means as a community, and the entire process leading up to the fight above. Martinez takes us through those twelve and a half hours leading up to the fight, his martial arts background, and how so many people are not using the tools that are presented right in front of them. He is an amazingly talented photographer and the work he is doing with fighters is something to keep an eye on. It was a pleasure having him on the show and we look forward to seeing what is next for him, whether it be with his hands on a camera or in gloves in the ring.

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 55 featuring not one, but two guests as the title spoiled for you. This could not have come together any better than it did. This episode was almost filmed 10 years to the day of UFC on FX 3, which happened to be the first UFC event that I ever attended. It was an immediate love for live sports and the first day I had met any fighter, being Ian McCall. Wineland called into the show on whim and it really just turned into something more amazing than previous interviews. This episode is not a showcase or breakdown of Eddie's next fight on June 18. It was a introspective journey into the career paths of two different fighters who seem to have the same mindset and that is an amazing thing to watch unfold on screen. McCall, no longer Uncle Creepy, talks about how different his life would have been had he won the title that night against Mighty Mouse. (Spoiler, it's not a happy path). Wineland talks about whether or not he still thought he'd be fighting in the UFC 10 years later, let alone getting a brand new four fight contract this year to continue to compete on the worlds' grandest stage. McCall and Wineland really dive deep and explore life, psychedelic's, careers and what life after fighting has meant and will mean, respectively for each of them. Take some time and really have fun with this one and realize that you may get more out of it than you think. Of course, there are some fun stories peppered in here as well as well as some fun facts!

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 54 UFC lightweight and Ultimate Fighter Alum, Vinc "From Hell" Pichel! It was Friday the 13th when we recorded this episode and it turned out to be one of the most challenging yet rewarding shows to date. Connection issues aside, which were kinda fixed in post production, led us down some crazy topics and jumped around for a while before landing on solid ground. Pichel is an absolutely hilarious and down to Earth fighter. We discussed his perspective on fighting, how video games are his escape from fighting, fighting at 40 and his last fight, changing gyms, road rage, and finally, one of the funniest stories about Friday the 13th that I can almost guarantee no one can top. Pichel also discussed life as a dad, his move to Colorado, cars, motorcycles, and so much more. We didn't even get to fully dive into his Twitch Channel, which we will save for a future episode!

The Quiggin' Out MMA Podcast is back with Episode 49 with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt and Actual Mixed Martial ARTIST, Phillip Lietz! Lietz is someone who I came across specifically for his artwork. His Jiu-Jitsu drawings are so full of life and accurate when it comes to the positions and grips that he depicts. It wasn't until after a few conversations with Lietz did I realize his place in the Jiu-Jitsu world as a Black Belt. This was a roller-coaster for a plethora of reasons. For one, Lietz talked about his passion for reptiles and his job as a Herpetoculturist. We discussed the hierarchy of asking rolling higher belts, specifically black belts to roll and the differences he has experienced from gym to gym. Lietz is a wealth of knowledge in many facets and it truly was fascinating getting a different perspective that may turn some heads. Side Note: We experienced a rare internet outage in the middle of the show. I was able to edit out most of the dead-air but I realized after that my comment about 6 minutes or so of dead air won't make sense. Enjoy!

The latest edition of thinkspot Presents brings us to Brisbane, Australia, where professors Stephen Hicks and John Quiggin engage in debate on the subject of postmodernism. Dr. Quiggin, an economist and democratic socialist, suggests postmodernism is a contemporary right wing phenomenon, while Dr. Hicks, a free market libertarian, challenges that claim.

Trying to follow the key macroeconomic debates that are swirling around DC, CNBC, the WSJ and the NYT? If you are but don't want to go back to graduate school or re-open your college macroeconomics textbook, John Quiggin has a solution. His Economics in Two Lessons: Why Markets Work So Well, and Why They Can Fail So Badly (Princeton University Press, 2019) achieves several goals. First, it frames the current debates, providing a concise, well-written history of macroeconomics and the key twists and turns in economic policy that have brought us to our current state of (general) disagreement on economic policy. Second, he structures his view of macroeconomics as a rebuttal to a 1946 book by Henry Hazlitt in 1946 called Economics in One Lesson. Seventy years later, Quiggin counters Hazlitt's view that markets are "correct," in that their prices accurately reflect opportunity costs for buyers and sellers. Quiggin's second lesson highlights the externalities and factors that distort those opportunity costs and lead to suboptimal outcomes such as extended unemployment, excessive income inequality, and the seemingly intractable problem (from an economics perspective) of pollution. In the final portion of his book, Quiggin argues what policies he thinks would make markets work better by generating a more accurate understanding of opportunity costs. To some, his prescriptions will look like the program of the Left. The great irony is that his goal is to make markets function better, not rid us of them. Whether you agree with his prescriptions are not, this is a very interesting book and a great way for non-economists to get up to speed on current debates and policy issues without having to do a single test for statistical significance or worry about heteroscedasticity.
