Starting junior year in high school wrestling I had long grown out bangs in the front, and it was literally impossible to keep them out of my face. I thought the headgear would keep them down, no chance. That was the end for about 15 more years, now I will heed Chris’ advice when I get back on the mat!
I really enjoyed listening in on the podcast while building out the blog post, thanks Chris!
Chris is such a cool dude. He’s the epitome of D.I.A.L.E.D.
It was a real pleasure to shoot this pod with him
I do not roll but when I do for the first time i hope its not Chris I’ve got to deal with! Certified badass.
I don’t roll but I’ve always wanted to learn. Great podcast boys! Loved hearing the military stories.
