Game Plan
Sure, this started as a podcast about Jiu Jitsu, but let’s be honest, we talk about everything. Training, injuries, gym culture… but also hunting, tech, life outside the mats, and whatever else we’re obsessing over that week.
If you’ve ever gone to open mat and stayed two hours after just to talk about your heart rate data, supplements, or whether deer feel fear this is your kind of pod.
No hard rounds here. Just good convos, occasional wisdom, and a lot of off-topic detours.

Destiny McCubbin competes in the Flyweight Division of Dana White's Power Slap and holds a record of 2-0. Coming from a boxing and MMA background, McCubbin made her Power Slap debut in 2025 and has her eyes set on the Flyweight Championship in 2026.
In this episode, we hear about Destiny's journey from boxing and MMA to Power Slap and her recent endeavors as an interviewer and podcaster.
Please note: Due to a last-minute travel schedule, this episode was recorded on the road in a hotel room rather than our usual studio. The audio quality is a bit lower than our norm, but Destiny's story was too powerful to wait. Thank you for your patience and for sticking with us!
