Karate is for everyone. So, join us each week for a 20 to 25 minute conversation on all types of subjects. We go from managing the distractions of daily life, through martial arts history and people, and common sense concepts to add to your self defense armor. Plus we have interviews and so much more. After spending over 40 years discussing life"s challenges in a dojo, (both as a student and as a teacher) I decided it would be fun to share the conversations with everyone. And it is!

A Book Review - Wabi Sabi

Wildcatdojo Conversations ·

2025/04/07

Welcome to a second look at Wabi Sabi: a Japanese philosophy that I'm going to define too simply as a celebration of imperfection. In this episode we look at 3 different books about the subject. Our first look at this, a favorite subject, was back in 2020. My favorite memory of that recording was our guests, Sensei Tracey and Sensei Sam. Interested? Here's a link: https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/2735464 You cannot discuss Wabi Sabi without bringing up Haiku. What a beautiful ...

This is a moving episode. Don't miss it. We got the original idea for this episode from a new friend, Hanshi Tracey Seymour. We met her, and interviewed her, a few months ago. Here's the link, in case you missed it: https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/16424997 Also, Audie Murphy is mentioned in this episode. It turns out he is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. Since we did an episode on him, I'll tag it here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/14969721 It was wonderful to ...

Regular listeners know how much we enjoy interviewing new friends. Hanshi Batlle felt like an old friend from the beginning of our conversation. Thank you Sir! I added the movie you mentioned, Five Fingers of Death, to our list of movies to watch and discuss. Thanks for the suggestion. For our listeners that aren't familiar with which kata go with which system. No worries. The story still works. If you want more information about kata, we did an entire episode on it.

Over and Over

Today, Landyn joins us for a variation on Letter Episodes. Are we 'over' the top? Listen to find out. At one point Landyn quotes the term "frog march" and none of us knew what it referred to....so I looked it up. Turns out it's just moving a person with their hands behind their back. We also mention our episode on Plan Your Work. In case you missed it. Here's a link: https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/15115807 And that led us to thinking of our episode on Expect the Unexpected. So, of...

Go Bags - An Archived Episode

What a great time we had when Paula and Eddy visited. A note as you listen: We HAVE tried MREs and we did put it on one of our social media - not sure if it was YouTube or Twitter though. We had a blast (since it wasn't a real emergency). The food was tolerable - not your mother's cooking, of course. Also, we'd love to hear your go bag hints and stories. Thanks for listening.

This episode is wonderful stories by our magnificent guests that just didn't fit into their original episodes, peppered with a few of our mistakes and a lot of our laughter. I'll tag as many of the episodes as I can below, but they ran from June to December of last year. So they will be easy to find. Thanks so much for being part of this adventure.

Movie! Big Trouble in Little China

Wildcatdojo Conversations ·

2025/02/03

Time to have some laughs with Sensei Randy as we review (spoiler alert) a Great movie from the 1980s. We'll move to the 90s for the next review, but today we talk about a cult classic. And how it didn't make money at the theater, but did later on. Here's a weird factoid: when I was searching on line for a graphic, I came across action figures of Jack Burton and other characters. Also, Kim Cattrall is in this movie. Sorry Kim, that we didn't get to mentioning that in the episode. T...

Sensei Lydia joins in as we discuss this saying. What do you think about it? Have you ever heard it before? Let us know. This episode didn't spark us to reference any specific episodes, so I thought I'd just tag in the first episode we did on a Master Kelljchian saying. It is from December of 2019:https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/1891706Enjoy the show, keep in touch, and support us if you can.

This 25 minutes flies by with Shihan Seymour. We had a blast. A quick note: When we talked about the Urban Legacy Foundation (Please support it), Shihan talked, in detail, about every recipient so far. (her passion is palpable) Because of time I had to cut two of the scholarship recipients. Sorry guys, but you are welcome to be on the show and tell me your story if you every have extra time.

Wildcatdojo Conversations ·

2025/01/06

What fun to start 2025 with Landyn available to record. We had a blast talking about words that start with 'S'. Somewhere in the conversation we discussed the anxiety you feel when you're starting something new. We tackled that in 2020. (Btw Landyn - we were both wrong, our guest was Sensei Jim - Hi Sensei). Here's a link to that episode:https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/2389178Also, we returned to a subject we have visited in two different ways; consequences. Here's the episode we d...

Landyn is back on the show - Yay! I found an old saying I'd written and it turned into a fun conversation with Landyn, myself, and Sensei Jackie. We cover a lot. For example, we touch on Japanese arts that aren't centered around fighting. We did a whole episode on that.

Today we meet Hanshi George Alexander. I love history and meeting new people, so this interview was a perfect fit. Hanshi Alexander had more stories than could fit into 25 minutes.

Back in 2020 we recorded this episode on axes. Landyn hates listening to his voice back then, but he was just as spontaneously funny then as he is now. Or should I say Punny!! Episodes about the history and use of weapons are some of my personal favorites. We think you'll like it too, so enjoy listening and let us know.

When I got the idea for this episode, it was from something I heard Grandmaster Urban say. Who better to have as a guest to add Grandmaster Urban's take than Hanshi Malanoski. Therefore, although we do get to the point, we're also regaled with wonderful stories about Grandmaster Urban. It's amazing to hear and for that I thank Hanshi. Stay tuned till the end if you want some real gems. Hanshi has been on quite a few times. The first time we interviewed him was in 2021. Here's a link:htt...
