Life’s a Fight — Health
Life’s a Fight

Life’s a Fight is a metaphor for life. It’s a mindset and philosophy that shapes how you approach the challenges in front of you.

This is a low-key, down-to-earth podcast about the ups and downs of life. We’re talking everyday challenges and the big ones, too.

Using my life and experiences as the backbone—Spanish teacher turned UFC fighter, now a professional speaker with a wife and kids—you’ll hear stories, lessons and strategies to help you keep going when you don’t think you can.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and could use some help fighting your fight, this is for you.

Hosted by former UFC fighter and teacher Charlie “The Spaniard” Brenneman.

AMXbooks 805 - Tiger Woods 15 Aug 09, 2019

Show notes

Redemption. Will. Perseverance. Complexity. Those are the words that come to mind as I close the last chapter in the book "Tiger Woods." This has been a fascinating look at one of the best athletes of all time. We leave with Tiger a much more human, fallible man, and one that has once again reached the top of the spot.

AMXtalks 243 - Aubrey Dawson, Avid Wrestler Turned Appalachian Trail Through-Hiker Aug 08, 2019

Show notes

As The Spaniard knows first-hand from going way back with this episode's young guest, Aubrey Dawson has loved wrestling nearly forever. Before he reached middle school, he was practicing year-round and hitting tournaments every weekend. But then a severe concussion transformed his purpose. For a time, Aubrey didn't know his own name, his own parents, and even carrots! (as you will hear) Six months after recovering, Aubrey suffered another concussion, and wrestling was over for him. But that spurred him to pursue another dream—through-hiking the Appalachian Trail with his dad. He tells The Spaniard about his gear, waking up to blizzard conditions, recovering from ankle injuries, enduring mosquitoes, and aiming to break trail records. He took five. million. steps, people.

AMXtalks 242 - Matt McLoota, Spaniard Classmate & Director for TV's "Billions" and Beyond Aug 01, 2019

Show notes

The Spaniard brings on yet another fascinating schoolmate, and this time he turns to IMDB to announce a trail of credits covering A-list films such as "The Producers," "16 Blocks," and "The Darjeeling Limited" and TV hits including "Law & Order," "Ugly Betty," "Gossip Girl," "Suits," "Elementary," "The Blacklist," "The Sinner" and "Billions." Matt McLoota is an in-demand director who worked hard to negotiate the entertainment gauntlet and is still grinding. Also, in the intro, The Spaniard alerts us to listen for a bonehead question of his. What an episode!
