What a crazy world we live in! Mike Stidham as your host, joined by boxing coach Sione Pouha, Max Stidham, The Monkey Boy and Robert Stidham. We start off the podcast with a discussion about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and a very racial statement from a former president of the church Brigham Young. With the world in a current state of chaos, due to the George Floyd incident, we discuss the possibility of the renaming of the university in attempts for the church to right this error. Then we do jump topics and talk some MMA. We talk about the UFC and how the fighters are compensated per fight that they have. Contracts are being renegotiated quite often, when fighters move up in the rankings, the person that they want them to fight, and the size of crowds the fighter draws. Then we get back to some police officer talk. Mike has great stories about how his perspective was completely changed from when he first put the badge on, to today and how a couple of his experiences have left him with some mental scars. Lastly, what is journalism? In today's day we hear the term "fake news" thrown around all too often. So, the question is, where do you get your news? There are too many people and stories on social media that can't be trusted, and have no validation, and this trend is passing on to the main stream media. It is vital that we validate our sources.
