Some time ago I was listening to a a friend's podcast, Conversations on Karate, and they were chatting with a person that I had never heard of, Dr James Hatch. I really enjoyed hearing about his approach to Karate, weapons training and tradition. A lot of our views are polar opposite to each other, but at the same time I can appreciate his viewpoint and reasoning. Fast forward a few months and here we are talking with James Sensei and having a great time exchanging our views on mental health, traditions and weapons. Did we agree? Well, you'll have to listen and form your own opinion. At one point James and I agreed that it can be embarrassing to be a foreigner in a land when you are not 100% fluent in the language - let me know who you think made the worst faux pas...
