Description
Phrost is Editor at Bullshido and a podcaster. The introduction of MMA and the UFC has been the ultimate stress test for fake martial arts. No-touch knockouts and chi-push energy blasts have been arm barred and head kicked out of existence. Yet the ability to detect and defeat BS, whether physical, martial or conceptual is no less useful. Expect to learn whether Will Smith should have swung harder, Phrost's justification for why you should always get into online arguments, the most ridiculous martial arts which were disproved, what it was like to create a real life Fight Club, how hard Steven Seagal actually was, whether everyone should learn to fight and much more...
