Chris Lytle and his Lytes Out Podcast team interview Tom Atencio. Atencio's "Affliction" line of shirts made the company one of the major sponsors of combat sports over a decade ago. Tom Atencio was the promoter for two landmark MMA shows that still rank among the biggest events in history. Check out our deep dive interview with Tom Atencio. Like and subscribe.
