  • Recent episode was awesome!

    Been a fan of Ariel since the start. Really enjoyed Ariel and dc show, was my favourite. This last episode with raven at the end was so good! Raven is such an interesting character, and to see his knowledge in mma, the back and forth with him and Ariel was great! Would love to see a weekly or monthly convo between them.
