Everyone you meet is not always what they seem. Everyone has a unique and interesting story. Everyone took a unique path to get where they are, and these are the people and stories of how they got here.

Show notes
Our tenth episode and miraculously we have not been de-platformed! In addition to continuing to do the world of podcasting no justice, and setting a new standard for poor audio quality and formatting, we also managed to talk with #1 Ranked IBJJF Brown Belt, Igor Nasciemento Da Costa Feliz about his life and future.

Off The Mat returns to a media device near you after almost a year off! I let JP just freestyle as I attempt to keep in as close to the ground as possible and keep the CIA from raiding the studio!! A great rehersal for the real thing!
"Why Do Women Choose To Do Brazilian JiuJitsu?"
Oct 20, 2019
Show notes
Once again recording live after a Friday Open Mat session at the Future School of Jiujitsu, Jota Pe, Snoop and myself interview three very unlikely female Jiujittsu practitioners. We ask a lot of questions, pose a lot of theories, and get no logical answers or outcomes......... but then again, it wouldnt be Off The Mats if we actually accomplished something!
"Why is Brazilian JiuJitsu So Addicting?"
Oct 06, 2019
Show notes
The first episode in our new recording location. We had some audio challenges in the beginning trying to figure out how to record in a remote location, but if you can hang in there, the conversation is excellent as we explore the addictive qualities of BJJ. Myself and Jota Pe are joined by Snoop for this discussion. We asked a lot of questions, came up with a lot of theories but got no answers! Classic Off The Mat!!!
Episode 6 "Conspiracy Theories"
May 19, 2019
Show notes
No Guest this episode, just getting back after a few weeks off and an unexpected injury to Jota Pe gave us some time to catch up and talk. Somewhere along the way Jota Pe talks Erik Thor through a litany of conspiracy theories. A deal is made to have a conspiracy theory show in the future to expand on these topics, and we ordered Tin Foil Hats to keep in the studio in case any of this nonsense is true!
