  • TERRIBLE PRODUCTION

    Listened to the Eric Dubay episode and you could not hear a lot of Eric’s audio at all….why would a production crew release an episode with those errors. I’m totally offended that I spent time on a podcast I couldn’t even hear the guest half the time. NEVER LISTENING TO A PODCAST FROM EDDIE BRAVO AGAIN….

  • Thank you

    The shows with Monte Cox and Jeremy Horn are incredible. Thank you TJ. Reminds of the show Sherdog used to do on Sundays with Jack Encarnacio . Great stories from MMA history.

  • Meh

    Michael Buffer is a blowhard. TJ is entertaining with Jeff but Jeff sounds like he could care less. The other hosts/ guests do cliché stuff.
