  • Great episode

    You guys are still going strong. More podcast Dave please. I really enjoyed your discussion today. Also, I like that other guy who kept calling you JT. Although, he did have that horrible take about Pereira being able to withstand John’s wrestling.

  • Stop with the backstories

    Guys please stop yapping about whatever memories from Strikeforce back in the day. I like the fight analysis but it’s probably about 20% of the timestamp where it says the top.

    Less than 20% of an entire episode is fight analysis

  • Stick to what you know

    The Social Security administration is not sending checks to dead people. That pathetic piece of misinformation is just another one of Elon’s adolescent computer non-whizzes misinterpreting the facts. Before shooting from the hip next time, how about getting your facts straight- or, better still,how about keeping your uninformed mouths shut. We don’t tune into listen to your juvenile political rants. Stick to what you know—MMA.

Josh Thomson's Stem Cell Treatment
Q: What made you decide to jump from jiu-jitsu into stem cell medicine?
A combination of personal motivation from Ed and Dedrick, a belief in patient-first care, and seeing real patients improve when access to innovative treatments was opened up, even if it meant taking a risk outside traditional Western medicine.
FAN QUESTIONS + FIGHT ANNOUNCEMENTS! | WEIGHING IN #635
Q: What advice would you give to upcoming or amateur fighters?
When you think you're in good enough shape, run more laps, do more road work, because the better shape you're in, the better your brain processes techniques.
FAN QUESTIONS + FIGHT ANNOUNCEMENTS! | WEIGHING IN #635
Q: Josh, do you still have any damage or injuries from your fight in days?
I broke my ankle in two places and have a plate there on my left ankle with nine screws; I can't really kick anymore on that leg.
FAN QUESTIONS + FIGHT ANNOUNCEMENTS! | WEIGHING IN #635
Q: Josh and Podcast Dave, do you buy yourself a gift for Christmas?
As adults, you just buy as you go. So as life goes on, if you want something, you just buy it. That's called being an adult.
