128. Brett Jones on rehabbing from injuries and the movement culture in America

Today I welcome back SFG Chief Brett Jones. Brett teaches Functional Movement Systems (FMS), and kettlebells as the Director of Education for StrongFirst. Today we talk about Rambo: Last Blood, The Boys… oh and fitness! Brett and I share a love for 80s movies and quotes. I somehow tie in Ferris Bueller and History of the World Part 1 to a discussion on anti-aging, rehabbing from injuries, and the history of movement.

119. Jessi Fisher, stunt double

I had the pleasure of speaking with stunt woman Jessi Fisher, who recently doubled Linda Hamilton for Terminator: Dark Fate. We discuss her journey as a performer from Cirque du Soleil to working in Hollywood. We also candidly speak about the challenges that face women in the stunt industry. I enjoyed my conversation with Jessi, as it brought back memories of my good old stunt days! Today I live vicariously through incredible stunt performers like Jessi.
