It's not about how you start, it's not even about how you finish, it's the journey in the middle that's the most exhilarating.

Patrick Spray is the first one to understand the concept of the show, he is going to be a heck of a coach, and thanks so much for being so damn open during the interview.

This show is too much fun. I mean how could I not have Brandon on the show after I predicted that he would with the championship over Spencer Lee?! Brandon talks about the transition to college, the double edged sword that is the world of Social Media, and of course as a huge foodie, how could I not ask what his favorite meal was? Thanks to Brandon for doing the show, and of course best of luck this year!

I swear I am not becoming a Nebraska fan, I literally am the most impartial host out there, but man what can I say this episode had so much insight. We talk about the transition of losing 1 match in 4 years in high school to adversity as a freshman, and finding his identity throughout the season. One to look out for next year.

Follow our Socials:

Some episodes are just too much fun they shouldn't even be allowed. The one and only Vito Arujau critiques my awful russian, explains the cultural differences between Russia and the US, the vast differences between folkstyle and freestyle, and finally of course, the most important thing of all, twitter with Sammy Alvarez.

Just a quick reminder for all the podcast people that episode 10 was a live stream on YouTube only.

For those of you who want to skip straight to the interview with Devin- 5:55

 In this episode, Devin talks about the culture shifts at Purdue as a whole, how his individual rise alongside his team has helped him through the years, and why he decided to run an impromptu marathon. Plus I have a little story on how my 6th episode with Grant Leeth went VERY wrong.

In this episode, the backpack comes on the show to talk about all things top wrestling, the chaos surrounding this Olympic cycle, the sickest kneepad in the game, and finishing out his college career in dramatic fashion. All the best in your senior-level endeavors! 

In this episode, Josh talks about the use of advanced stat measurements at Duke, taking a redshirt this year, the differences between senior level competition and the bright lights of the NCAA, and the emotions around the infamous strap moment.

In this episode, Illinois 133 pounder Travis Piotrowski joins the show to reflect on his college career, what´s next for him in the coach´s chair, and whether he´ll ever throw the almighty challenge brick. Huge thanks to Travis for doing this, and this is a bad man that´s gonna slay whatever he wants to do.
