The Matburn Podcast Ep. 10 Craig Jones

In celebration of episode 10 we had special guest leg-locking machine Craig Jones on the show. Topics discussed include how Craig got started in Jiu-Jitsu, his education in psychology, why he hates training in the gi, how to make money in Jiu-Jitsu if you’re not a blackbelt world champion, and the very unimpressive criminal backgrounds of Josh, Keenan, and Craig. Keenan tells a story about the time he experienced two SWAT raids in the same day and Craig talks about people getting his names tattoo’d on their broken ankles. They shared their thoughts on the topic of bowing to pictures on the wall. Big thanks to @craigjonesbjj for taking the time to be the first Matburn Podcast guest. Thanks to Sam the Tax Guy and Line Tax Services for their continued support, as well as Tap Cancer Out for their massive efforts to make the world a better place funding the fight against cancer nationwide.

It would be hilarious if Craig opened an academy in Texas and called it something ironic like "The B-team" or something 😂😂😂😂

[@serwanal-badri2495]

Who the fuck is the KREG???

[@Daland9]

I would upvote this more it I could. This needs to be pinned

[@nicolaschechile6987]

LEGEND

[@p.dookiesalmon6730]

Hey.. Kreg, ya know?

[@OGsquats]

Kreg 😂

[@_Swarm]

Definitely down for more Craig on the podcast, he fits in so well

[@Markenheimer]

I love this podcast! Josh and Keenan balance each other out nicely. Some combos of people just make for nice ramblings.

[@dojitsu2265]

Haha Keenan turning the camera to cut out Josh. Advantage, Keenan

[@xsiveforcef]

Shawn Hedley Keenan doesn’t get advantages

[@GangzxtaD]

That cracked me up 😂

[@jakelacour]

39:53

[@randyogue2032]

Hands down best podcast. You guys story time is so funny

[@randyogue2032]

@teknomogul the too high on plane from gummies had me loling sooo hard

[@Nemes1S_]

39:55 Keenan with the white belt level camera skills. If you have purple belt or below skill level with the camera, please don't touch it.

[@adamabbas1487]

I really wish you were sponsoring the matburn podcast.

[@adamabbas1487]

Craig is so calm, he makes keenan and josh seem unhinged.

[@chadmask9534]

*unhinjed

[@jameslondon4438]

Guys this is literally my most anticipated podcast every week. Really appreciate the great content. Also Keenan your other account called bjj scout is great too.

[@WSOJJ]

Craig beat me (Jason Bukich) by points at the ONE grappling challenge in Macau in 2016. So I know he has at least one win by points. If heel hooks had been legal I'd be part of the 100%

[@dylan0wn5]

"Would you shake hands with a picture of George Washington?" -Josh Hinger

[@xatheus]

Hinger is the Brian of this podcast

[@benadamourful]

Pumped for this episode. Where can I get my mat burn gi patch

[@NickyAztec]

I want one as well

[@riotmakerzify]

Thatd be sick!!! i got plain ole white gi with my gym logo on the back

[@tim707max]

I cant wait for Gordon to respond to this podcast

[@alexeykosorukov112]

23 minutes in, i really wish Josh would ask more questions and talked to the guest instead of constantly talking about himself and looking at Keenan while touching the mic with his lips.

[@nicolasjalbert4062]

I had so much fun listening to that podcast, keep it up guys! It's only getting better

[@nematulahabdullah8091]

By far one of the best ep. Craig was funny and stories were the best. U guys should make a poll of options on who to have on the next podcast.

[@natefenton7254]

You guys are awesome and this is quickly becoming one of my favorite podcasts! Please keep pumping them out.

[@riccosuabe]

this podcast is quickly becoming the best around, josh and keenan bounce off each other so well!

[@CarlosMartinsCunha]

This is gold. Please don't stop podcasting.

[@Jamba-wl8ez]

Hey Keenan! Keep up with the podcasting bro. Love your innovations and general insight. You've been an inspiration to me. You're a super cool dude... you wouldn't remember it but you kindly took a picture with me at last year's Boston Open. When I get famous too, I wouldn't mind sending you the picture. I'll still be cool and down to earth.

[@adamabbas1487]

Forgot to say, this is the most entertaining bjj podcast.

[@Varleydude]

KEENAN, You’re a great podcast host man (probably the most interesting in Grappling)- wish you’d make more content like you used too ❤

[@fritzdagger]

I appreciate that!

[@mozuna27]

Favorite episode so far.

[@ECKE001]

Best episode yet!

[@shlowgator]

You guys are awesome :) My favorite part was back when you guys did podcasts together.

[@danielbak651]

Best podcast around.

[@gyuripetenyi8766]

Glad that Josh's eye looks way better that on the previous podcast. Keep it up guys greetings from Slovakia

[@phobowl]

That was hilarious. Great mat stories.

[@bi3mer]

Agree with Keenan on the “loss of translation” between lower belts showing techniques. It makes sense logically, a purple belt learns a technique from a BB the BB shows every minute detail, purple belt shows it and misses some points. This happens probably everyday at some point.

[@katarzynanowak2392]

Awesome guest! Well spent 2h, while doing home office :)

[@madtrade]

the podcast is so good !

[@ilxyaeger]

I can verify the patella injury - Ive had I was in so much pain that I laughed instead of cried.. well thats something I guess! Love this podcast btw

[@TheWillFilms]

Yes!

[@jeremyestorga8220]

I wish craig was on every episode

[@Randomboiiii]

Yeeeeas! 😭

[@ClaytonJones03]

It took me years to figure out that saddle, honeyhole, inside sankaku, and 411 were exactly the same thing lmao

[@randomgameschannel401]

Dope podcast

[@edcoronado]

Keenan trying his hardest not to interrupt at 0:56 😂😂

[@joelarock]

no ep 11 yet? Did the Rickson hit squad take out Keenan?

[@to_a_nico]

Where the hell is episode 11???

[@BoxFanBuddy]

Would love to see The Matburn Podcast at a gym with a rolling portion for each guest

[@christianglaser3371]

Shiiieeet, Iwas there during that training session at boogeys a day after I tore my mensicus. Didnt get to train at legion, hopefully see you guys this summer.

[@vmbrazilianjj]

Hey guys I’m the blue belt Keenan got mad at for saying his lapel guard is worse than paulo miyaos!

[@Immortal-ironic-fist]

Varun Mehrotra I saw your reddit comment right before the podcast dropped, had a good chuckle when he brought that up 😂

[@vmbrazilianjj]

@@Immortal-ironic-fist I did too lol, when Hinger said it would make the trolls day, it truly did hahaha

[@Randomboiiii]

Where's episode 11?

[@richardlancelot3829]

Perfect first guest. This podcast has been great... Even if I feel called out as a pleb whitebelt teaching other whitebelts from youtube vids lmao.

[@GoGosMix]

Im a blue belt and when anyone asks me to show them something I absolutely refuse. Keenan's comments confirm what i thought. I could be incorrect with my technique even though it works for me.

[@bodhitree33]

We need an animated version of the SWAT raid.

[@Brandon-ob9rg]

Please make more pods Keenan. Thanks.

[@AlecWilcosky]

Awesome guest and a really good podcast. Nice ideas with the photoshops for the last two thumbnails, but you gotta give your two ugly mugs more real estate. All big KZbinrs make their face like 40% of the thumbnail.

[@turost3034]

Good content

[@sch2412]

loved the tommy wiseau reference

[@ampark09]

I did think it was Josh's podcast but then he talked about touching guys and his dead dog and I'm gonna say the podcast is Keenan's now.

[@1m_sophie]

Nahhh, you guys are overeacting.

[@ampark09]

@AllTheKings Horses not going that far. Just making a joke dude

[@josenaranjo3960]

josh looks like a former member of limp bizkit

[@leandro0720bitch]

craig jones just looks high as fuck like "these fuckin kangaroo"

[@dushiemcbag]

You guys are right - we dont care about the losses, we just love that you want to compete!

[@johnjames9728]

Why don't you have a playlist for your podcasts ?

[@nikolamejl]

Podcast starts @ 9:45

[@alexbosinger5507]

You guys are hilarious

[@frankymilad5071]

These guys are hilarious

[@patrickobando3676]

“10 years is just enough to love em like family and then they die”

[@rozeautopet]

Quick tip for the camera setup. Put the one on keenan more to the right, so it's more in front of Keenan. Bit like jre does it. Now the audience feels like it's sitting on the corner of the table and not really invited in

[@thebluestbelly]

me like your podcast senor

[@jace6364]

The Connor story was the funniest shit ever 😂

[@TreyCarterJJ]

Please have Kit Dale on!

[@Eshttzer]

57:30 - oh hai mark

[@alprez3298]

Why no new episodes! did the Gracie "Purple Belt" burn defeat Keenan!?

[@koalaofdeath2045]

So.. was this podcast pre or post the pink eye incident?

[@Ron_Berimbolo]

Yerrr

[@unclewangg]

Kraig off da beanz on the plane

[@0MARnumba1]

Starts at 10:01

[@adamabbas1487]

Why are there no new matburn podcast. I hope its not due to that Rickson Gracie stuff.

[@shunthanos]

Craig at 55:41 with godlike tournament stats.

[@briedcan]

I don't have ❤️ but want a Hyperfly Gi. What should I do?

[@alwaysadventurous7905]

Brian Cantor find someone to teach you heart

[@6519980407]

Keenan do this again pls

[@baltimorebjj]

Keenan lol at you getting worked up about the online comments. It harkens back your epic promo with Xande.

[@vmbrazilianjj]

Ask me any question you want, I am the man that is behind the legendary triggering of Keenan

[@AdrianCiubotariu]

Josh is right with niche. For it to be like Keenan says it it would be spelled nitche. It comes from French. It literally means recess, slot

[@jordanjansco2611]

Ol Keegan Corncob looks like he's podcasting from a different room.

[@tobyn123]

Your record gets wiped for the general public but the cops can see it for 100 years i believe... That's definitely true in the UK.

[@JoelReeves2006]

Woohoo BJJ yoga . Net

[@KingsSVR]

A bit of a constructive criticism here but I think you should have let Craig talk a little more, don't get me wrong always love hearing Keenan talk though just when there's a guest I want to hear a bit more from him

[@sentfromdaniel]

Not that it’s a big deal guys. But if you want your actual records expunged. You have to apply to have it done. They are supposed to automatically do this once a certain time passes. But they don’t lol

[@blandz]

Hinjer: Those people on reddit just say stupid shit to get a rise out of you so you give them validation Also Hinger: I. D O. N O T. H A V E. G L A S S. A N K L E S. K E E N A N !!!

[@josesoto3594]

now that l think about it, why is like 15 % of the frame pure microphones (between Keenan and Craig) and Josh is barely in frame lol

[@nottarookieapparelcompany2403]

Was going to find some details on advertising on the podcast for our little project. I couldn't find a contact on the website. I did message on Instagram. Any details you can share? Thanks so much

[@marcobala9284]

Ask Craig Jones about Ashton Kutcher!

[@unessential5108]

Craig Jones was there?

[@CameronCanFLY]

Where is episode 11?!?! Reeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

[@zenreese9205]

keenan can use talk no jutsu lol

[@johngarcon87]

You know, I've watched the podcast since the first episode. Each one has gotten better as far as content and tech, that being said I didn't realize Josh was old as fuck.

[@fredrikandersson3885]

Craig jones seems to be the chillest dude ever. you should have given him more room to speak tho! Craig please beat gordon!

[@asiraky]

Australians are cool

[@Thisnotmysandwich]

9 min of sponsors? Dear laaaawd

[@traviswilmot2251]

Is Hinjer like 4'9"?

[@joechan8996]

This podcast is excellent, but little bit creepy or drifted to somewhere strange at the end.

[@ramirospinelli6453]

Now i gotta tell all the girls at my gym that Craig is married, you guys have given me the task of giving bad news lol.

[@Tonyklick]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6qkkn-crt-skLc Imagine Craig being at his black belt graduation, getting his black belt by his teacher and thinking "yeah, this isn't just happening to me"

[@kasperlarsen5244]

Was Casey that hitted him right:D?

[@Chooong7]

Im going on reddit to post shit about keenan right now

[@Kissmyass8777]

Shame Craig wasn’t apart

[@td4yd154]

Fizzy energy drinks?
