    About this Episode

    On today's episode I'm joined in studio by world-renowned martial artist, Braulio Estima.

    Braulio is a 5-stripe Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt and is known throughout the BJJ world as one of the best to have ever competed, but also, one of the best coaches to ever step on the mats.

    He teaches seminars all over the world, as well as training within his adopted hometown of Birmingham. He finds himself often in Jersey and I nabbed him for a chat inbetween training sessions during his last visit to the island.

    This chat frames his understanding of teaching around his personal and athletic development within professional martial arts. This is a conversation for people curious in the idea of working with people struggling with motivation, how to persevere, why goal setting is important but crucially why the journey is more important than the destination.

    I'm Glad You Exist - Michael Swaim

    OH DAMN, it doesn't get much more personally special for me as far as guests go!

    Michael Swaim is a professional author, comedian, actor and podcaster. He became the face of the website Cracked.com during its hey-day, the popularity of which allowed him to branch off and create his own podcast network Small Beans (which can be found wherever you listen to podcasts). 

    Michael is a genuine creative hero of mine so it was an honour to chat to him about his career, his new book 'The Climb' and being scared of death.

    James (Jay) Du Heaume is a professional musician currently living and working in London. He's been a good friend of mine for a number of years. His pilgrimage from Jersey to find success as a musician is one I keep a close eye on and feel passionate about supporting. Many people try, few people succeed. Lift up your friends when they try to pursue their dreams.

    In this chat, we talk about how Jay's career is turning out, the lessons along the way and what defining success will mean to him.

    Crafting Chills - The Outwaters

    Crafting Chills - The Outwaters

    We're keeping the finger on the pulse of contemporary horror this week! We watched The Outwaters, "it's the 2023 Blair Witch!", is it though? I guess, kinda?! What it definitely is is a found footage movie that's generated a lot of hype and we were certainly on the train too! 

    We conclude Nightmare Fuel by also dipping back into Found Footage, how serendipitous!

    Crafting Chills - Baskin

    From the horrors of a living room in Skinamarink, to a good ol' fashioned black mass orgy in an abandoned building - this week we're chatting about Baskin! An offering from the lands of Turkey where such cultural differences are imperative to getting the most out of this story.

    Crafting Chills - Possum

    Crafting Chills - Possum

    Can you spy him, deep within? Little Possum, black as sin.

    2018's Possum, written and directed by Matthew Holness is one of John's favourite films, let alone horror films. Tune in for 90 minutes of him gushing to Nyxx about why this film is so good, whilst simultaneously being an horrifically awful viewing experience.
