Episode 9 - Carlos Cline - Whatever you do be the best at it

This episode was recorded in Cambrils Spain at Renzo Gracie Spain with the owner and head coach Professor Carlos Cline. In the episode Carlos talks about growing up in Newark, New Jersey and the male characters in his neighborhood that influenced him as he grew up. From there we discuss the influence of school coaches and how he ended up at the genesis of Renzo Gracie's in New York. Carlos was a fantastic guest, and we could have talked for ten hours. If you like BJJ this is a must listen and even if you don't there is a lot to take away from this discussion.
