When a fighter breaks an opponent's nose with a perfectly executed face shot and scores zero points, something is fundamentally broken. Welcome to modern Taekwondo, where electronic sensors have replaced human judgment, and the art of fighting has morphed into what the Warehouse 15 crew describes as "bad point karate."The hosts dissect how the PSS (Protector and Scoring System) has failed the sport despite years of promised improvements. Using a brilliant analogy, they explain that trying to fix the current system is like putting triangle wheels on a Mercedes and then focusing on "improving" those triangle wheels rather than simply installing round ones. The result? A sport where athletes have adapted to trigger sensors rather than deliver powerful, technically sound techniques that once defined Taekwondo.Perhaps most concerning is how the community has grown numb to this new reality. Drawing from a Korean saying—"When it first starts to rain, everybody runs. Once you get wet, you start to walk"—the hosts explain how practitioners have become desensitized to witnessing legitimate techniques go unscored while lighter, sensor-friendly touches rack up points. This was evident at the recent Grand Prix, where even Olympic champions suffered unexpected losses, raising questions about whether these upsets reflect inconsistent training or simply highlight the randomness created by flawed scoring.Beyond the scoring issues, the episode covers impressive performances from Brazil's 57kg fighter (who shut out opponents completely in two consecutive Grand Prix finals) and Christina Teachout's gold medal in the 67kg division. The hosts also highlight a concerning coaching controversy where a U21 team member wasn't prioritized despite upcoming World Championships. Join us as we navigate the complex world of elite Taekwondo, where athletes continue to strive for excellence despite a system that often fails to recognize it.

At 8 years old, one punch changed my life forever…When I was 8 years old, I punched my Taekwondo instructor in the stomach… and it was like hitting Superman.That moment changed my life forever. I became obsessed with human strength, discipline, and the pursuit of becoming a real-life superhero.Years later, I graduated with a mechanical engineering degree, worked for the Department of Defense, and lived deep inside “the Matrix.”But something was missing...I opened a gym, worked in the fitness industry, and eventually found plant medicine. That discovery became the missing piece — the doorway to my true path.Over the last 8 years, through ceremony, death, and rebirth… my old life ended.

From the remote venue of Muju, Korea ("the middle of back-ass nowhere," as our hosts colorfully describe it), the Warehouse 15 podcast delivers an unfiltered analysis of the Grand Prix Challenge that combines technical breakdowns with candid commentary on the politics affecting taekwondo.The spotlight shines brightest on two American performers - CJ Young securing gold in the welterweight division and 19-year-old Victor Rodriguez delivering the tournament's most impressive upset by defeating an Olympic gold medalist. Rodriguez's performance exemplifies the podcast's central theme: the sometimes painful gap between performance quality and desired results. Despite fighting "lights out," Rodriguez experienced a heartbreaking semifinal collapse that cost him a medal opportunity.Beyond the competition itself, the hosts – all decorated Olympic medalists – address recent criticism directed at them by taekwondo organization leadership. With characteristic frankness, they challenge the propriety of high-ranking officials using their platforms for personal attacks rather than focusing on athlete development. "If you're a winner, you're a winner. If you're not, you're a whiner," becomes their unapologetic response to the situation.The conversation shifts between detailed technical analysis (including officiating inconsistencies and strategic breakdowns) and broader reflections on what constitutes meaningful achievement in the sport. While tournament victories deserve celebration, the hosts maintain that Olympic success remains the ultimate measure of a program's effectiveness: "Let's celebrate an Olympic win. That's it. Win the Olympics."As they look ahead to upcoming divisions and tournaments, the podcast offers both tactical insights for competitors and thoughtful perspective for fans seeking to understand the sport's complexities. Whether you're a dedicated practitioner or casual observer, this episode delivers the perfect blend of expert analysis and unvarnished opinion.Join us next week as we continue our coverage of international taekwondo competitions and bring you more insights from those who've reached the pinnacle of the sport.

Truth-telling takes center stage in this candid episode as we pull back the curtain on recent controversies and performances in USA Taekwondo. After connecting with key insiders about the much-discussed Poomsae competition incident, we share a more nuanced perspective on what actually happened while condemning the unacceptable targeting of child athletes with negative behavior.Our conversation shifts to a brutally honest analysis of Team USA's ninth-place finish at the Junior Pan American Games—a result that should raise serious alarms for anyone invested in American Taekwondo's future. We dissect the disconnect between organizational messaging about "understanding the mission" and the reality of underperformance in a region where USA historically dominates. This leads us to deeper questions about resource allocation, coaching selections, and the accountability gap that persists despite repeated disappointing outcomes.Looking ahead to the Grand Prix Challenge in Muju, we weigh the value of participation against strategic considerations, questioning whether some developing athletes might benefit more from targeting competitions where they can build confidence and success. Throughout our discussion runs a powerful thread about accountability—the willingness to own both triumphs and failures rather than selectively celebrating successes while orphaning disappointing results.Whether you're an athlete, coach, parent, or Taekwondo enthusiast, this episode's unflinching examination of the sport's current challenges will leave you with much to consider about what true excellence requires. Join us for this thought-provoking conversation that asks the tough questions others avoid.

Gary Engels teaches business owners and entrepreneurs the disciplined sequence of steps that lead to lasting success. His wisdom isn't drawn from an MBA program or corporate leadership seminars — it's forged from decades on the mats. “Sensei Gary” is a serial entrepreneur, app creator, and a 4th-degree black belt in Taekwondo.  Gary's list of ventures and partnerships is long. Among them, he is the founder of Leadership Academy, a martial arts school dedicated to developing leadership skills in students of all ages, and the creator of the Legacy Missions app, which helps users build positive daily habits.  He also serves as CEO of MyGig, which connects businesses with essential services in accounting, marketing, HR, IT, and financial optimization.  Unlike many entrepreneurs who obsess over selling, Gary has built his career on service. His approach begins with a simple question: “How can I help?” Service builds trust, trust builds relationships, and relationships drive revenue. It's a principle that has kept his martial arts school thriving for 20 years — a milestone that very few such schools attain. So, join us this week in the “Monday Morning Radio Dojo.” Remove your shoes, step onto the mat, and begin mastering the “business katas” that will make you a fierce marketplace competitor.

The first trailer for a two-part Charlie Sheen documentary is out. Here's part of it. Did you know Willie Nelson is a 5th-degree black belt in a Korean martial art called GongKwon Yusul?

It's not easy going out as the Kevin Cronin Band, I will tell you. You can't overestimate the power of the name REO Speedwagon and that ubiquitous, winged logo. They mean a lot to people. I can sit here and say that the Kevin Cronin band is doing the same thing until I'm blue in the face, but when people see the Kevin Cronin Band, there's a question -- 'I wonder what this is gonna be?' -- whereas if you see REO Speedwagon and the winged logo on the bill, it's 'I know what that is.'"Even though he's called his decision to no longer tour "heartbreaking", Cronin will appear at select shows, like the Rock Legends Cruise in 2026.

In this episode, host Adam joins Axel Meierhoefer on The Ideal Investor Show to share his journey from aspiring trauma surgeon to founding Libertas Wealth Management Group. Adam opens up about the life-changing injury that redirected his career path, how his father inspired his love for business, and the unique approach he takes to help clients - both business owners and individuals - build and protect wealth across generations. From the critical differences between a ‘practice' and a ‘business,' to why most Americans start planning far too late, this conversation dives deep into the strategies, mindsets, and planning essentials that create lasting financial security.

From the beautiful shores of Maui, this candid conversation dives deep into the current state of Taekwondo with the raw honesty that listeners have come to expect from these Olympic veterans.The hosts dissect a controversial Poomsae scoring incident that rocked the National Championships, questioning why an unprecedented formal report was issued when a competitor was added to finals after initially placing 12th. What makes this situation particularly noteworthy is how tournament officials removed video evidence and implemented a response dramatically different from how fighting controversies are typically handled. This raises profound questions about transparency and organizational priorities that affect competitors at all levels.As conversation shifts to the upcoming Under-21 Pan Am Games, the hosts provide expert analysis on each weight division and the qualification pathways to the Olympics. Their disappointment that the United States only qualified competitors in four divisions reveals a concerning trend about development priorities in American Taekwondo. The qualification structure potentially allows young winners direct entry to the Olympic Games - creating an alternative pathway that could reshape competitive careers.Perhaps most fascinating is the hosts' exploration of when fighters reach their physical prime in modern Taekwondo. Their surprising consensus that today's athletes peak between 18-23 years old - much earlier than previous generations - reflects how dramatically the sport has evolved. This shift raises important questions about athlete development, career longevity, and the changing technical demands of competitive Taekwondo.Throughout the discussion runs a thread of wisdom about humility in martial arts. As one host eloquently states, success is "rented, not owned" - a powerful reminder about perspective that transcends sport. Whether you're a competitor, coach, or passionate fan, this episode offers invaluable insights from those who've experienced Taekwondo at its highest levels.Join us next Friday when we'll analyze the Pan Am Games results with special guest Dr. Capner. Your perspective matters - what changes have you observed in competitive martial arts development?

More than titles, Corky's story is about passion, creativity, and building a legacy—both on the mat and in his community—through discipline, innovation, and lifelong service to martial arts.

Have you ever asked yourself? Am I helping my kids find meaningful ways to spend their time beyond their screens? When was the last time I encouraged or joined my child in an offline activity? Do I ever ask my children to share what they experience online? Today's fathers are raising kids in a world vastly different from their own upbringing. In this episode of The Dad Edge Podcast, Larry Hagner sits down with son Ethan to hash out the stark contrasts between “growing up with TV” and “growing up with a smartphone.”   Larry and Ethan dive deep into how social media impacts motivation, mental health, and connection within families, exploring why “doom scrolling” can leave kids feeling depressed and stuck. They discuss generational changes, the pressure to always be connected, the fleeting nature of “streaks” on Snapchat, and—importantly—how open, non-judgmental conversation can bridge the gap between parents and children. With practical insights, plenty of laughs, and a heartfelt wrap-up, this is a must-hear for any dad (or mom) looking for more connection with their kids. So whether you're struggling with technology at home, wondering how to talk to your kids about the pressures they face, or just looking for real-world dad wisdom and relatability, you're in the right place. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Understanding the Lure: Social reels are engineered for those instant dopamine hits, but they also make it harder for our kids to generate their own ideas for what to do with their downtime. Pressure Is Real: Not just on girls, but on young men too — from gym culture to physique expectations, today's teens feel the spotlight to “measure up” in ways we never had to. Screen Time Isn't Innocent: Endless scrolling can leave kids (and adults!) feeling drained and blue. Sometimes, all it takes is a thoughtful check-in (with options!) to break the cycle. Modeling Matters: Whether it's respect, discipline, or health, what we do still means more than what we say. Connection Beats Correction: When we bark “put the phone down!” we might be missing the calls for actual connection. Ethan shares, sometimes our kids just want us to start a real conversation, not hand them a to-do list or a lecture. This episode is a must-listen for any parent struggling to bridge the growing digital divide at home. So grab your headphones, and get ready to rethink how you connect with your own kids—one legendary day at a time. Here's what research and observation highlight about psychological and social impacts of smartphone and technology use on teenager and parents Studies show that 78% of teens feel anxious when they're separated from their phones. Studies show that roughly 84% of Parents Say Technology Makes Parenting More Challenging than When They Were Kids. About 52% of Adolescents Report Feeling ‘Left Out' if They Don't Have a Smartphone or Social Media. www.thedadedge.com/mastermind www.1stphorm.com/products/1st-phorm-energy  

North Korea finally opened the long-delayed Wonsan Kalma mega resort on the east coast last week, with leader Kim Jong Un calling for a “new era” of tourism. But with the tourism zone boasting over 50 hotels and capacity for 20,000 tourists, questions remain about who will actually visit the resort as the country keeps its doors closed to most foreigners. This week, NK News Correspondent Jooheon Kim joins the podcast to discuss the resort amenities that the DPRK showed off and who was on hand for the grand opening. He also dives into a recent event spotlighting defector testimony about executions in North Korea, an inter-Korean rivalry over claims to the martial art of taekwondo and the story of one defector's quest to make his name as a mixed martial arts fighter. About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.
