25 Aug 2025 • 23 min • EN

One of the great parts of recording this podcast is the amazing people we meet. Hanshi Melendez is a perfect example. She was So much fun to talk with. We met her through Hanshi Seymour. Jic you missed Hanshi Seymour"s interview back in January, here it is: https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/16424997 In the beginning of the show, we say that we"re going to hear about her time competing in Madison Square Garden. Oops, we didn"t get to it! I guess we"ll have to have her on the show again. Yay!  Btw - if you"re a karateka and want to share your stories - get in touch. And if you like the show, and have a couple of extra bucks - please support our work. (I know with all the laughter you"re thinking "What work?")  But it is there - behind the scenes - and your help is appreciated!
