Holly DuchmannGreat for BJJ fansThis podcast has been invaluable to my jiujitsu journey, which started two years ago. Podcast host Ryan Ford hosts engaging and interesting interviews with modern Jiujitsu Greats—listening to this podcast feels like hanging out with friends over a beer after training. Good insight on life both as a jiujitsu practitioner or a competitor. Seriously can’t recommend this podcast enough for those looking to get more knowledgeable about the modern jiujitsu scene.

In addition to being entertained by fantastic guests and learning about their careers and lives, I have learned many strategies and philosophies pertaining to training. Ryan Ford is a fantastic host that asks intelligent and pertinent questions. His style of interviewing allows the guest to tell their stories, is playful and fun to listen to! Ryan is a fantastic ambassador to the sport of jiu jitsu!

robertjordan8812Thank youThank you for interviewing such an awesome guess. I do have a little constructive criticism though. Let your guests talk more you talk a little too much and don’t give your guest the opportunity to respond. sometimes it’s hard to listen to your podcast because of that. Again thank you for this podcast I hope this helps.

KsteinacherRyan Ford is the bomb!I’ve been listening to Ryan for a long time and his method of crafting a discussion with the guests on his show is very unique and enjoyable. It is clear that he has continued his usual caliber of work as a part of BJJ Fanatics. Looking forward to catching up on a few of his guests that I’ve missed!
-
NastinupeAmazing content, Useful InformationI started listening to the P.C. about a year ago and it’s really taken my mentality to the next level. Ryan is a great host who doesn’t over talk or try to outside his guests like some hosts. He’s respectful and easy to vibe with, which makes the P.C. an enjoyable experience. If you’re just getting into BJJ or a Brown Belt, this is a great P.C. to add to your list.

craig cordiGrappling Central PodcastI started listening to the Grappling Central Podcast a few years ago because Ryan was interviewing someone I knew through Jiu-Jitsu and I have been listening ever since. IMO, Ryan’s Podcast is the best Jiu-Jitsu (or grappling) podcast I have listened to. I have listen to others and I always eventually stopped. However, with the GCP I actually look forward to listening to the newest episode. I always take something way to help my journey in Jiujitsu, from every episode. I also really enjoy listening to “The Pummel”. The answers are usually pretty interesting. If I got a chance to play it, I am confident I would get my “double under hooks”. Another reason I listen to GCP is Ryan, himself. Ryan is genuinely a nice person who is very approachable and down to earth.

petey lorinczGCP is king!I love the GCP!!! Hearing different perspectives about the art from my favorite players helps my daily commute and even pushes me to go train on days I wasn’t necessarily feeling up to it. More pummel!!!
-
aaaggg167GreatAwesome podcast, always bringing in interesting and relevant guests from the bjj and grappling communities. A good listen for any martial arts practitioner or fan
-
JT Doc BerryGCP Rocks!!Been listening to the podcast for a couple of years now. I get so excited when I see certain guests on. Gives me some great perspective I can use on my own game.
-
Jiujitsu_pixThe best!Grappling Central’s podcast guest list literally reads like The Who’s who of the BJJ community. I don’t know of any other Jiu-Jitsu related podcast that has literally had all of the big names, both current and past, on it. Since the host, Ryan, is a life long BJJ guy himself, he knows the questions to ask and the topics to cover that the community wants to hear. Keep up the great work!!!
-
HoopahbGreat PodcastThe guests are first class grappling and Jiu jitsu practitioners, the questions and conversations are engaging, and the velvety voice of Ryan Ford with the high quality production make this one of my favorite podcasts.
-
WScottStewartBest BJJ podcast by far!Ryan Ford is a skilled interviewer and has extencive knowledge on BJJ. I walk a way from ever podcast better!
-
awilliams055Great content, needs some refinementI really appreciate this podcast - the host is knowledgeable and motivated, the guests shine light and insight on our beloved sport. I do have to offer some criticism: the host has his microphone EQ set to a far too aggressive setting. Combined with the fact that he often becomes quite excited during the interview, his voice can be overbearing to listen to, and easily overpowers the voice of his guest. I would love if he softened the EQ, so it sounded less like he was shouting at the guest (and the listeners) on a megaphone. Otherwise, I am grateful this podcast exists!
-
Avi)tavanianI hatelisten to thisInterviewer is supposed to have a critical relationship to his subject. This guy has no structure to his interviews and fanboys all over his subjects.

JfredhaleLife Changing Podcast!This is the show that finally motivated to walk into a BJJ school and sign up. I had been listening to the podcast for a few weeks when I pressed play one day heard Ryan mention that his guest for that day was Seth Smith of Richmond, Virginia - my hometown! It was a terrific interview and it wasn't long before I finally mustered the courage to join Upstream BJJ, along with my adult daughter. Best decision I've made in a long time. Seph is a great teacher and my girl and I can't wait to go to the next class. Thanks Ryan....keep up the fine work!
-
AscensionMMAGreat podcast!!Great podcast with lots of legends of the sport.
-
MidlifeUpswingGreat Insight for BJJ PractitionersGreat interview with Shane Jamil Hill-Taylor. I was really impressed by his maturity and insight at such a young age. This was a perfect example of what makes the podcast so great. It allows the listener to get to know the athlete and take away lessons/tips for application in our own BJJ journey.

thatBendudegood stuff RyanGreat podcast brother. Really like the format. You need to talk to Jeremiah Claybrooks. He runs East Cobb MMA where I train. Come have a training with us and bring the zoom. I’d love to pick your brain regarding my own podcast thats launching (totally unrelated to bjj), and the crew we have is great. We’re local! Hit me up. 4045428923. Ben

-
Julian14589Marginal at bestRyan has some of the weakest interview skills I have ever heard. His questions are weak and boorish. Once in awhile as decent guest will make the show decent but Ryan definitely kills this one . He just sounds amazingly dumb - like who told u to start a podcast .
-
Bknumba1Still my favoriteStill my favorite BJJ podcast. I like Ryan’s approach, his manner, and how he treats his guests.
-
NachoTraderAn awesome resource for jiu-jitsu junkiesThis podcast is such a treasure chest of great stories, history, tips, resources and enjoyable content. If you love jiu-jitsu make this podcast a regular part of your training regime to and from the mats. I highly recommend it.

Vheissu171The BestThe GCP is simply the best podcast to listen to if you are an enthusiast of any sort of grappling art. Ryan Ford does a phenomenal job of asking relevant and insightful questions, and keeps the conversations going at a steady pace. This podcast will help to keep any grappler motivated to stay on the mat and get better. Can not recommend it enough!

DtpalmerOne of my favorites!Ryan’s sincere curiosity is what makes this podcast so special. I often catch myself saying “great question” and shutting up to hear the answer time after time after time. Thank you kind sir, oss!

Dryguy13Great ShowHe gets some unbelievably huge names. The ones you haven’t heard of are almost better. Kurt Osiander should win some sort of award. I’ve been listening for a couple months, and now I never miss an episode. Ryan is a good interviewer too. He gets out of the way, and lets these guys talk.
-
Martial artist new to yogaGreat guests and contentI have no idea how Ryan gets all these guys to interview, but he regularly gets the best of the best to come talk about their lives in grappling. Excellent content and fun interviews. The episodes are a who’s-who in grappling, and they all have great stories, advice and ideas to share. I’d like to hear from more judoka and wrestlers in addition to the best jiu jitsu players in the world he has on his show, but he does a great job finding guys from all over, with all types of experience discussing our favorite thing. Even Guys I never heard of make for great interviews and conversations. Keep up the great work GC!
