About this listen
Two hosts break down Scott's no-gi win at the IBJJF Chicago Open — describing the match, the finishing inverted armbar, and the medal moment. As well as the post tournament meals.
They also discuss a nearby medical emergency at the event, discuss safety, AEDs and CPR, and reflect on risks in high-intensity training and tournaments.
The conversation shifts to jiu-jitsu industry headlines: The Craig Jones Invitational teams, athlete pay, UFC/Paramount deals, and how mainstream exposure could change the sport. They ruminate over how the change in dynamic could be good for the sport but also the risks it could pose to the subculture feel surrounding it.
They close with light post-tournament moments (Chicago food, merch, and ways to follow the show).
