À propos de cet audio
In this episode we ask whether jiu-jitsu takes itself too seriously, exploring the two cultural camps: the hyper-serious, macho side, and the silly, meme-driven side; and how figureheads like Gordon Ryan and Craig Jones fuel that divide.
We discuss the idea that promoters may be manufacturing controversy (WWE-style), or that the split has been masterminded by a hooded evil figurehead looking to control the entire sport. We also discuss the role of social media in growing jiu-jitsu’s pop culture, and the simple takeaway: it’s a goofy sport, so have fun and don’t take it too seriously.
We ask you the listeners: Who is jiu-jitsu's Obi-Wan Kenobi? Who is Mikey Musumeci in this analogy?
Join us on this fun ride through the silliness of our sports pop culture scene.
