We talk about rank, and both the privileges and responsibilities that come with it.

Well, here we are. Episode 127 of whistlekick martial arts radio is about to roll. On this episode, we talk about rank, and both the privileges and responsibilities that come with it. It’s a topic that’s been building for a while, and we might just ruffle a few feathers, so hold on.

First, let me introduce myself. I’m whistlekick’s founder but I’m better known as your host for the show, Jeremy Lesniak. whistlekick, I am proud to say, makes the absolute best sparring gear, apparel, and accessories for practitioners and fans of traditional martial arts.  I’d like to welcome all the new listeners and thank everyone that’s come back.

All of our past episodes, show notes and a bunch more are at whistlekickmartialartsradio.com. From that site, you can sign up for our newsletter, and I hope you do because we offer exclusive content to subscribers, discounts and it’s the only place to find out about upcoming guests.

Rank. Wow, where to start. If you’ve been listening to this show for some time you know that I take a pretty diplomatic stance in this show. I like to appeal to everyone, that’s part of our brand – we want to bring some unity to the martial arts. We’re picky with who we have on the show for the same reason – we don’t just want people on here that run through their resume and tell us how great they are. The martial arts has enough of that, and it certainly doesn’t need this show to turn into a soapbox for it.
