In this episode I introduce the podcast then spend a few minutes sharing how I came into the world of grappling and jiujitsu (literally by mistake!). It's a short one and while I imagine future podcasts will be somewhat longer, I can't see them stretching any further than 15-20 minutes, unless they include an interview or a discussion.As I mention in the outro, I'm new to this and all feedback and/or topic suggestions are welcome.
