Truly enjoyed this conversation. I appreciate the vulnerability and honesty from all sides. I wish more men and women were able to express and communicate more like this.
Brits are different. These guys are so articulate and well educated and yet they present themselves as everyman. In American media, there's a sort of anti intellectualism and folk hero worship. This podcast runs so counter to the hollywood image of the west that I'm so familiar with.
You men are giving me serious brain-gasms and exceptionally high benchmarks for conversations and relationship standards 🥰 keep up the good work! 💕 so much learning and appreciation going on here! As a teacher, we are constantly trying to foster curiosity in our learners and applying real world contexts - Einstein has a quote where he encourages everyone to forever view the world from the lens of a curious child! Having the flexibility and self confidence to seek wisdom without ego is imperative but also a rare commodity that needs better nurturing/encouraging! ❤️
Hey I have a genuine question. I would like your opinion if you have time. I recently started jujitsu. I started it because I was almost kidnapped and raped. Thankfully one of my friends saved me. She got there just in time. I have a brown belt in karate. I have trained since I was 4, but the strand I was in was point sparring and performance, not real hands on. It gave me a false sense of security. The way this guy who was taller and bigger than me just threw me over his shoulder and ran away with me brought me clarity and was so scary. It brought about a almost primal sense of respect and fear for the fact that men are stronger. This fear is the reason I have started training jujitsu. When I originally signed up I briefly explained that I had almost been kidnapped and wanted to work on my ground work and grappling, but with an emphasis on self defence. My teacher has been teaching me as though I picked it up as a new sport and not for self defence. He also tries not to but I can tell that he’s annoyed by my lack of ability to pick things up like he does. Like hell just show a move to get past guard and then say to go do it. But I wish he would break it down into movements. Also the other men in women in the class are really great. I have learned the most from them, they are more patient and understanding with me. I am not a slow learner either, my karate translates in some ways and other people in class have commented how quickly I have gotten better. However, I still feel like it’s not fast enough and also that I’m not learning as much of what I want to example hip escaping from people bigger than me on top of me. Don’t get me wrong, I think that learning the basics is important and necessary. But at 75 a lesson I was to be learning more about what I fear. All of this is to ask, do you think I need to learn all of the basics first and that I am rushing or is it okay to kind of assert that I want to learn it more from a self defence perspective than he is currently teaching it?

Thanks for having me mate 💜
One of your best podcast collaborations to date, Chris Williamson is very inspiring and instils great ideals.

Finally the British Podcast space is growing. Chris you need to get a studio like this, so much cooler the dynamics in person than over skype
Agreed. The problem isn’t the studio space though - it’s people never being in Newcastle to record with!
Love hearing open and honest conversation among mature and intelligent men. Great work guys. Could have listened for hours!
Top tier work lads, thoroughly enjoyed this one!
I feel like this could keep going forever. Great one!
Is there a part 2, or did this get cut short by accident
Wow Chris is on another level

Mega podcast. So relatable and inspiring.

Would’ve been ideal if you could’ve spoken about quieter Diren 😂😂
Watched so much of all your content that this felt like a chill conversation with the boys
So many great takeaways! Chris is brilliant. Also, I've never considered trying BJJ, but I think I just might.
Deffo one I need to relisten to! So good
I didn’t know who Chris was until I heard this 😳 great pod casts
Chris williamson completely took over this podcast
💖💖💖
What a chat! And it ended like that Smith!?
Here from tiktok post - just so you know 😀
Wasn’t ready for those bombs at the end of the podcast. That got good.
More of these 😂
7:55 💣
Vocal volumes out of whack between the three of them out for everyone else? Diren quietest, Chris loudest. Have to listen on headphones
Same with headphones, need to stay close to the mic
I have never had a fear of rape or men. Traveled the world alone.
Where can I get DMT vape liquid lol
