  #175 - Derek Preston

  Oct 2, 20261h 5mS7

  This week on the show, I’m sitting down with Derek Preston to dive deep into BJJ breaking down everything from mat fundamentals and guard recovery to the high-level chess match. Whether you’re stepping onto the mats for your very first open mat, preparing for your next BJJ tournament, or just obsessed with the technical evolution of the gentle art, Derek brings an incredible perspective on how to build a dynamic, sustainable ground game. We get into the weeds on gi vs. no-gi strategy, how to break through frustrating training plateaus, and the specific strength and mobility work you need to stay injury-free through years of hard rolling. Derek shares actionable tips on mastering defensive posture, escaping high-pressure pins, and developing the patience required to survive the white-to-blue belt grind without burning out your body or your ego. Beyond the physical technique, we talk about the real mental side of BJJ: staying calm under suffocating pressure, using leverage over brute force, and why the discipline you build while sparring translates directly into how you handle life off the mats. Hit subscribe, grab your gi, and join us for a masterclass in martial arts mindset, grappling strategy, and everyday resilience. Derek's Instagram: @ simplyderek_official LET’S CONNECT!

  In this episode, I sit down with Jody Manning, Executive Director and Planning STEAM Principal, to explore how the new Syracuse STEAM High School is revolutionizing education and workforce development in Central New York. Housed in the historic Central Tech building in downtown Syracuse, this landmark regional high school bridges the gap between traditional academics and real-world career preparation. Jody walks us through how the school breaks down ZIP code barriers by partnering the Syracuse City School District (SCSD) with surrounding OCM BOCES component districts, creating an accessible educational hub for students across the region. We dive deep into how the school functions as an "employability incubator" designed around the actual needs of local industry leaders and major tech employers. From cutting edge career pathways in robotics, semiconductor manufacturing technology, and data analytics to entertainment engineering, construction management, and the visual and performing arts, Jody shares how project-based learning and industry mentorships give students a head start. We discuss how students can earn up to 30 transferable college credits, complete real world internships, and graduate with industry-recognized CTE certifications alongside their high school diploma. Whether you're an educator, a parent looking into innovative high school options in CNY, or a community member excited about the region’s growing tech and creative economy, this conversation offers an inside look at the future of hands-on learning.
