    #288 Two BJJ Police Officer's Plan to Transform Policing

    What difference can one officer make? Ross Tyler (purple belt) and Sam Luna (brown belt) think so! Join us in this compelling episode as we interview two dedicated police officers who are not only my bjj students but also Jiu Jitsu instructors for their fellow officers. They share their firsthand experiences and insights on how consistent Jiu Jitsu training can transform law enforcement. We discuss the critical need for better training to ensure safety for both officers and citizens, tackling the root issues of violence in policing. Discover their actionable plan to reduce reliance on weapons— "tools"—by empowering officers with effective self-defense skills. This conversation sheds light on a practical solution that could make a significant difference in communities everywhere. We at ISAJJ Hope that this conversation can change the way that people view police officer training.

    #285 BUSTED! Destroying BJJ's Biggest Myths

    Does Size Matter? In this episode of the "I Suck at Jiu Jitsu Show," we're tackling 10 of the most persistent myths in the BJJ world. From the idea that size doesn't matter to the misconception that all black belts know everything, we're breaking down the beliefs that might be holding you back. We'll explore why not all black belts are created equal, touching on the 80/20 principle and how a small percentage of practitioners hold a vast majority of the knowledge. We’ll also challenge the notion that Jiu-Jitsu is just about memorizing techniques—because in reality, it's an adaptive, ever-evolving art, not a rigid list of moves to recite. Plus, we'll brutally debunk ideas like "never tap to pressure" and the flawed mentality of "you just shouldn’t get there." This episode is all about challenging what you think you know about Jiu-Jitsu, encouraging you to question the status quo, and helping you see the art from a fresh perspective. Tune in for a myth-busting discussion that might just change the way you approach your training!

    #281 Will Ai Replace Your BJJ COACH? (Not if I can help it)

    Today I am doing an episode of The I Suck at Jiu-Jitsu Show and I need you to write an outline. Today I want to look at the question, "can Ai coach bjj?" This episode will be very different because you(chat gpt4o) are going to write the outline for the episode after I start recording the episode and then I am going to follow the outline no matter where you decide to go with the episode. Your goal in this outline is to prove to me and the listeners of ISAJJ that ai could be an effective jiu-jitsu coach for anyone no matter their goals. I want you to specifically focus on you being a jiu jitsu coach(interactive through someone's journey helping them know where they should best focus to get to their goal) and not an instructor(someone who teaches jiu-jitsu techniques or concepts).
