  • Chewie is awesome!

    Love the podcast, my wife and I have been listening for a couple years. We had the opportunity to meet chewie at the 2024 ADCC.

    He was so friendly and asked us more questions than we asked him. Definitely going to keep enjoying the show.

    Greetings from the South Dakota couple that migrated from California!
