Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#272 Benjamin Chen
Q: So why do you think we overcomplicate things so much when the simple truth is right in front of us?
The truth is scary because it makes you confront uncomfortable realities about your life.
#272 Benjamin Chen
Q: Was that decision difficult for you? I mean, I would imagine coming from a traditional family like this where a path is almost carved out for you in a sense.
It was incredibly difficult and I was afraid of disappointing my parents.
#271 Jeff Curran
Q: Where do you see yourself in ten years?
I don't want to be coaching people. I don't want to be in the corner. I don't want to be the water boy for some guy who is going to quit if he loses a fight.
#269 Robson Moura
Q: Do you think Jiu-Jitsu is softer than it was 20 or 30 years ago?
Moura believes it's not the discipline that has softened but rather the mindset of new practitioners who may view it merely as a hobby rather than a lifelong commitment.
#269 Robson Moura
Q: How does it feel to compete at such a high level?
Moura shares that the feeling of winning is something one dreams of for many years, representing one's team and effort in training, and striving for personal achievement.
