The Implications of the 46 Million Dollar Jiu-Jitsu Lawsuit

The jiu-jitsu world was shaken recently when Jack Greener, severely injured in 2018 while sparring at a San Diego gym, was awarded $46,475,112 dollars by a jury. Rener Gracie testified for the plaintiff, and Clark Gracie testified for the defence.

In this episode, I get together with Dan Lukeheart (Brea Jiu-Jitsu) and Alex Kask (Barrister and Solicitor) to discuss…

  • The specific technique that caused this injury (the ‘Leo Viera Backtake’),
  • Training methods used in jiu-jitsu,
  • Who gets to set industry standards in jiu-jitsu,
  • Whether white belts should spar,
  • How teachers and club owners can protect themselves from being wiped out by similar lawsuits,
  • And more.

What is Fascism, with Daniele Bolelli

In episode 379 of The Strenuous Life Podcast I talk with podcaster, martial artist, and history professor Daniele Bolelli about the characteristics of fascism.

The term ‘fascism’ gets thrown around a lot these days. But words have meaning, and so you can’t just use it as an insult to describe anything you don’t like. So what is it?

As Daniele explains, there isn’t a single definition of fascism; instead it’s a checklist and the more items an ideology checks off then the closer they are to fascism…
