Very good interview...Mike Malpass represents Bando well. He does a good job of explaining the breadth and depth of Bando as taught by Dr. Gyi.

Thank you for this, definitely would like to learn more. The rawness, direct but refined. I live in arizona, would love to get involved, enjoyed it

Bando was a part of the OG Full Contact Karate Tournaments in the 70s. Bando is best and is MMA.

Tying Kukri to mace/clubbell was an eye opener. Think I'll add Kukri to my Christmas wish list 😊

Great interview! I would love to learn more about Bando, but information is limited and it appears that the video you had on Burmese Bando is no longer available. I bet it was a great video.

What do Kevin and Mike do instead of getting takeout? Kukri!

Cited Safe School and Taming Serpent in my own Masters and hope I did them justice.

Great conversation, great podcast, great bit of MA history
