We originally released this episode as a bonus episode on our Patreon page. But with the current news in jiu jitsu about sexual predators and our goal of ousting them from the sport it seemed appropriate that we release this episode on this free feed for everyone to hear. Lloyd Irivin is perhaps most famous for his alleged rape of a minor in 1989 and his odd "defense" of that incident. This all come to light after two of his students raped a teammate of theirs on New Years Eve in 2013.In this episode we are looking at Lloyd Irvin, his school and it's culture, and whether or not a coach is responsible for the behavior of their students.
