Description

The Porrada Podcast is a conversation, not an interview. The conversation is about the people who do the sports, more than the sports themselves. Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, Muy Thai and any other pursuit that leaves a mark.

Thank you for listening to and supporting The Porrada Podcast. This was a great conversation that's been brewing in the DMs and after rolls between Morgan and Sam; what is a fight? What's with all these rule sets? How do they use Ecological training so far? Etc. etc., we were having a good time so it's a little frenetic, but do stick with it and ejoy the pearls of wisdom and the... uh, hot takes.
