In this episode we talk about the week that was. SpaceX takes another leap in our journey to the great beyond. What the heck is a Guppy Whale? We also discuss the economical impact the pandemic has had on sports. Are mandatory vaccinations a thing? We weigh in on the possibility. All this and more!

It’s been a hot minute since we last recorded! We appreciate the patience while we try and figure out our rhythm. In this episode, I give a quick update on my health situation. Afterwards, we go round and round the world discussing everything from COVID fears and conspiracies, to the Tyson vs Jones matchup, the stars above and beyond! Sit tight, enjoy the show!

I’ve been on a major hiatus and have finally returned! For those of you who didn’t know, I was diagnosed with colon cancer in April 2019. I tried resuming the podcast while I was undergoing treatment but my health took a turn for the worse. You will hear all about it, and my road to recovery. Thank you to everyone who gave me your support. It gave me the strength to keep fighting. We talk about the biblical plague in the room, UFC 249 and what we're going through while the world falls apart around us. Thanks for listening!

In this episode I give everyone a quick update on my health. Many of you know by now back in April I was diagnosed with colon cancer. Thanks to the highly trained medical staff as well as the rock solid support you all gave me during my time of need I have mustered enough energy to put out a new episode! We take a shorty walk down what was UFC 239.  I apologize if i omitted one fight in particular (Jones VS Thiago).  Sit back and enjoy! 

Again I wish to thank EVERYONE who sent love my way. I look forward to getting back on the saddle again sometime soon!

Welcome to the next episode of the Not a Paid Sponsor Podcast! I’ve decided to do another in the car episode! We had some crazy news drop about TJ Dillshaw regarding his case with NYSAC and USADA! What is EPO and why would someone be prescribed this? Artem Lobov’s debut at BKFC5 has come and gone. Many people have mixed emotions on where they stand with Bare Knuckle Fighting. Is it too primitive or not? Scientists have discovered and published the first actual photo of a black hole! Isn’t science awesome? We alight about politics and everything in between. I start ranting towards the end about a “snarky” tweet I saw. This sends me flying off the rails. All this and more! Enjoy!

I decided to do this episode from my car so there’s no intro today! I’m not going to lie. I’ve been stuck in a creative block for the past couple of weeks. Nevertheless WE ARE BACK! In this episode we recap all of the UFC events that were. Is it a good time to be a UFC fan? What’s the deal with doping violations? We brush up on the new UFC on ESPN+ extension, the new Joker movie, and video games! Check it out! If you like what you hear subscribe! I’m trying to get back on the saddle and hope to be doing 2 episodes a week from here on out!

This was one of the more highly anticipated cards of the year despite it only being held in March! We had so many questions leading up to fight night!!! -How does Cody Garbrandt come back after his loss to TJ Dillshaw? -Does Zabit Magomedshapirov deserve to be in the top 10? -How will "Funky" Ben Askren do in his UFC debut against Robbie Lawler? -Does Johnny Walker beat Misha Cirkunov on short notice? -Is Anthony Smith to Jon Jones what Holly Holm was to Ronda Rousey? All this and many more questions! That being said, UFC235 turned out to be quite the anomaly. Leaving us with more questions than we had answers. FEAR NOT! We swim through the ups, downs, and controversy that made up UFC 235! Sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode! If you all enjoy this podcast, PLEASE subscribe wherever you consume your podcasts!

In this episode I have the privilege of sitting down with two friends of mine whom I've had the honor of working alongside in the Vainglory North American Champions League!

Cormac "Imperium" Wyatt and Maximillian "Maxman" Barraud are two eSports personalities/content creators on the rise who have had the chance to shoutcast community events such as the NACL as well as cast the World Electronic Sports Games tournament for Vainglory!

We catch up on where they've been since the WESG tournament, as well as their thoughts on topics such as eSports culture in western countries! 

We talk about the battle royale genre. Has Fortnite peaked with the release of Apex Legends? Should we be concerned? What does this say for other games as well in other genres? (Vainglory, League of Legends, etc.?)

Has cross platform gaming helped merge and increase a games overall presence in the market? Are the keyboard and mouse mightier than the controller? Are controllers superior to touch pad controls?

With the innovation in gaming as well as technology, how do we tackle issues like harassment and other forms of toxicity? All this and more!

First live podcast episode! Today I went solo for the MMA podcast! We talk about the punishments handed out by the Nevada Athletic Commission, Jon Jones, and the implications of restricting what fighters say leading up to a fight! We also talk about Bellator’s heavyweight tournament as well as Aron Pico. Is he being rushed? We debate the future of Ronda Rousey in the WWE. Does she return to the octagon? All this and more on the Not a Paid Sponsor Podcast!

In this episode Jesus and myself try our best to break down the UFC on ESPN card from this past weekend. Can we do it without complaining about Conor McGreggor or Jon Jones? Probably not.  Do we have a bone to pick with the MMA media? Yeah we kinda do. This is what fans do! We try to make sense of all the crazy stuff we read and listen to!

If you're an MMA fan and would like to participate in the podcast hit me up on Twitter! This is why we have these episodes! It's fun to talk crap about things we probably know nothing about!
