Only The Strongest Only The Strongest

Varal presents an interesting/dumb thought experiment to the other two hosts, who, with minimal ridicule, manage to entertain the idea. Plus an important annoucement about the near future of the podcast.

We're delighted to welcome Kung Fu to the OTS mic today. He joins us from England at an ungodly hour to talk about how he got into capoeira, why he started his podcast, and how he'll continue with capoeira no matter what, even though osteoarthritis might limit his time in the roda.
His podcast: The Life Capoeira

Hint: there's no clear answer. There's not even a clear answer on what the criteria should be.

Azul fills us in on her recent, reinvigorating trip to a batizado in Texas. She talks about the importance of good music, the painful condescension of playing down to beginners, and why are there so many fewer female professors than male?

We discuss a joooooosee post from the subreddit about how capoeira should update itself. Bonzinho thinks the post misses the point entirely, Varal waffles in his usual manner, and Azul thinks we should punch more people in the face. Plus, the debut of a new segment: hot takes!
