Jake Shields on Jiu-Jitsu, masculinity, and Will Smith

In this episode, I speak with champion MMA fighter Jake Shields about the connection between Jiu-Jitsu and "good men."

Do all good men do Jiu-Jitsu? In an effort to support my own hypothesis, I spoke to Jake Shields, a champion MMA fighter and Jiu-Jitsu black belt, with a background in wrestling going back to his childhood. We chat about how men benefit from Jiu-Jitsu training, Lia Thomas’ swimming “win,” and Will Smith’s Oscars outburst.

This conversation took place on Monday, March 28th.
