Episode Six - El Jefe and The Villain Reap The Weak - 28/02/21
El Jefe (Naqi Arshed) and myself, the Villain, answer questions from you, yes you, every week in this thoroughly biased Podcast. Thank you to the wonderful members of our Discord channel for this weeks ideas. We managed to condense it down to one larger discussion this week, how to integrate sport methods into regular Jiu-Jitsu training. We also prod slightly into the Gordon/Galvao incident, and how to pronounce El Jefe (it's not El Jeff!).

Josh McKinney is an American BJJ Black Belt, the host of the increasingly popular "The I Suck at Jiu-Jitsu Show" Podcast, an incredibly prolific online coach, and easily one of the nicest guys in all of Jiu-Jitsu.

In this Podcast we talk delve a little bit into Josh's Jiu-Jitsu and Martial Arts past, how the scene was in the late noughties early...

Episode Four - Priit Mihkelson - 22/02/21
Over the last couple of years, there has been a name gathering an almost mythical reputation. Considered an underground coaching king of sorts, a "European Danaher", Priit Mihkelson has amassed a sometimes fanatical fanbase of hyper-frustrating Jiu-Jitsu desciples. From his cerebral approach to coaching, to his comprehensive system of Defence, Priits legend has only continued to grow. The man to award me my black belt (and inspire most of how I approach Jiu-Jitsu), I got a chance to sit down with Priit and discuss at great length his approach to coaching, how the pandemic has affected how he spreads...

#68 Chris Paines: How to Escape Everything
There are no concepts that cover everything in jiu-jitsu, right? Chris Paines may have one. Today I get to interview the BJJ Black Belt who has never trained BJJ and his ideas on training jiu-jitsu are jaw dropping! We get to discuss Chris' unique lineage, the concept that made him so popular, and his opinions(that I happen to share) on jiu-jitsu style warm ups. This episode is guaranteed to simplify the way you look at jiu-jitsu!

Unconventional Growth in Grappling & A Universal Theory of Guard With Chris Paines
I talk to Chris Paines who describes himself as a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt who has never done Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He started training submission grappling somewhat isolated from the larger BJJ scene in Staffordshire, England but began attending BJJ Globetrotters camps where he met Priit Mihkelson. It was at these camps where he was graded up and awarded his black belt by Priit. The unconventional way he learned made him forced him to emphasise understanding the concepts behind grappling, which he describes as a machine of physics and biology through which using concepts the techniques can emerge. We discuss...
