    Ep. #101 Marines vs UFC, Subway incident, Tell me about yourself

    Tim and Matt spend some time today talking over the most common interview question and how so many people get this wrong. "Tell me about yourself" it is such a quick opening question and for so many of us we open up our interviews bogging down the conversation before it even really begins. We discuss a Marine veteran who choked out a passenger on the NYC subway after he was harassing other passengers, leading to his death. We finish the show today talking about a UFC fighter training with Marines. Paddy Pimblett took on 10 Marines back to back, submitting each and every one of them.
