    No oil checks here!!! 😂
    Awesome podcast format. Travis is a great guy! Def give this pod a listen‼️
  • Alan Brott Jr
    Excellent guide
    Started listening to you guys as a research tool for using Jiu Jitsu as my own therapy for issues from the Army. Had no idea initially that you were also vets! Well I’m 1 week into my Jiu Jitsu training and I’m so glad to have you guiding me along the way. From day 1 I kept in mind that you guys and others say new white belts have a tendency to hurt people by going to hard and fast. So I have kept my mouth shut, ears open, and taking my time setting techniques I’ve begun learning. I honestly can’t tell you how excited I was to tie my white belt on, but thankful for your podcast helping me develop the mindset of not worrying about belts and instead just pursuing knowledge of bjj. Again I want to tell yall thank you for your podcast!!
  • Lapalalapalaksxhh
    Happy New Year
    Podcasting seems like a labor of love (at least in the beginning). I’m just a simple listener and you have gold here (for you and the community at large). Keep on creating content like this and not just Tom Hardy will come on but you’ll have your pick of guests. Thanks for your hard work!! I hope 2024 is your best year yet! Sorry Mario Lopez but I think Mr. Hardy has your number!
  • AnchieB
    Binge listen now!
    Travis puts on an incredible jiujitsu podcast that always make me rethink things I thought I knew. I DM’d him recently and he was quick to provide a thoughtful response which was amazing! He is 100% real and I am thankful for all of his commitment to the jiujitsu community and for putting out this podcast!
  • Evolross
    Good Authentic Show
    Travis has a great show and tries hard to deliver interviews and insights for everyone going on their BJJ journey. I’m a big fan.
  • connermj
    You won’t be disappointed
    I started listening to these guys about two years ago. This is a great podcast for beginners and even for gym owners. You’ll get the perspective of someone relatively new to BJJ and someone experienced. They ask insightful questions, and have a wide range of topics and interesting people to choose from. You won’t be disappointed.
  • AngeloKelly7
    Brand new white belt
    Just started doing jiu-jitsu and this is a perfect place to learn more from people with tons of experience. Appreciate the show guys!
  • olivia💩olive

  • JustinFromWa3002
    Fantastic
    Super fun podcast. Host are both humorous and obviously passionate about Jiu Jitsu. Thanks for the content.
  • SnubRook
    The flow is unreal!
    Conversation between the two hosts is so fluid and smooth. The almost have me on the cusp of jumping into BJJ without a second thought. Each consecutive guest is more compelling than the last. Innovative and fresh in a competitive genre.
