Daniele Bolelli is a martial artist, historian and the creator of the History on Fire podcast. But this time I managed to get him for a return visit to my own Strenuous Life Podcast (Click here for information about our first podcast together).
Here’s just a bit of what we covered…
- The evidence for and against an ultra-violent human past vs a peaceful noble savage model of our hunter-gatherer past
- The rise of MMA in Asia.His process of researching and producing History on Fire, one of the leading history podcasts
- How to get rid of weight cutting in mixed martial arts competition
- Daniele’s proposed ‘Gladiators for World Peace’ program and how it’s going to get him the Nobel Peace Prize
- His return to Italy as a tourist
- Is it too soon to tell whether we’re moving towards a more peaceful future?
- Ötzi the iceman, Neanderthal DNA in our genomes, and a mass murder that occurred 430,000 years ago
- And much more!
