Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome back! This week on the podcast, I sit down with Erin Herle—a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC), and holder of a Master’s in Sport & Performance Psychology. Together, we explore how mental coaching can transform an athlete’s performance, how coaches can use psychology to lead more effectively, and why grapplers must train their minds just as diligently as their bodies.

Erin breaks down what mental coaching truly is—and how it differs from therapy or everyday motivation. We dive into the common mental blocks she sees in combat athletes, and how to tackle competition anxiety and the fear of failure.

Whether you're an athlete, a coach, or someone looking to strengthen your mental game, this conversation is packed with insight you won’t want to miss.

What's up, y'all? This week on the podcast, I sit down with Coach Kevin Brewer, a U.S. Navy veteran turned Spartan athlete, mindset coach, and weight loss mentor with an inspiring story of resilience.

Kevin opens up about his battle with injuries and illness, and the long, winding journey to reclaim his health through discipline and mindset work. We dive into the challenges of navigating today’s overwhelming maze of health advice, online gurus, and misinformation, and Kevin shares how these experiences shaped his mission to help others cut through the noise.

We talk about the often-overlooked biases in “healthy” eating advice, and the need for validation when building new habits. Kevin also offers insight into the world of Spartan Races—from how the courses are structured to what challenges him the most. But beyond physical strength, we explore the power of vulnerability in coaching, the importance of being authentic, and why people helping people might just be the most underrated force for good in the world.

What's up, party people? This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Kris Pinkerton of Nerd Rage Radio and The Realm of Collectors for a fun conversation all about pro wrestling. We warm up by discussing how pro wrestling and BJJ intersect. We give examples of current wrestlers who train. After that we get into the current main event scene over in AEW.

We then get into a conversation about WrestleMania 41. From Rey Mysterio taking on El Grande Americano to the massive triple-threat clash between Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Seth Rollins, we share our thoughts on every matchup. We also talk Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena for the Undisputed WWE Championship and Cena's heel turn back at Elimination Chamber. We give our thoughts on IYO SKY’s title defense against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley, and Gunther putting the World Heavyweight Championship on the line against Jey Uso and what comes next for them.

Plus, we break down standout bouts like AJ Styles vs. Logan Paul, Bron Breakker’s Intercontinental Championship defense, and Jade Cargill facing off with Naomi. We wrap up with predictions on what could happen after Mania and the future feuds these matchups could ignite.

To keep up with Kris, you can find him on Nerd Rage Radio every week or go check out @crashboxcustoms on Instagram.
