The Sky's The Limit For Ethan Hendry
In this week's episode we are joined by a man that needs no introduction. Moray's newest kickboxing phenom Ethan Hendry. You'd have to have been living under a rock to not have seen this man's head kick knockout in a fight he had at the end of 2023. Having seen him train person whilst doing some filming projects, it's pretty clear this guy is destined for incredible success in his combat sports career!
We chat for an hour and twenty minutes. Including topics such as, How Ethan got into combat sports, Making the move to SBG Moray, Ambitions to compete in MMA in the future, the relentless pace Ethan pushes on his opponents, that headkick knockout and Aidan Stephen's upcoming participation in the Cage Warriors Prizefighter tournament! Just to name a few of many things we got to talking about. Was pleasure to have Ethan on and it was good timing to get him on, as I believe he's about to burst on to the combat sports scene and become an absolute superstar!
Oh! And if you haven't seen the headkick, please do yourself a favour and go watch it now via this YouTube link! - https://youtu.be/cocvOClgPbY?feature=shared

The Reason Yoel Romero Couldn't Make Polaris.
It's been a while since we've managed to put out a video episode. So what better way to return than to once again speak to "The King Of The North", SBG Moray Coach, BJJ Blackbelt, and sports masseuse Kevin McAloon. We spoke to Kev about three years ago, which is wild and shows how fast time is truly flying!
A lot has happened since we last spoke. Kev is now a blackbelt, has just competed in Polaris, whilst smashing every other competition he has competed in. We also get into talking about the whole Craig Jones and ADCC beef, Some thoughts on other athletes from SBG Moray, and the importance of working on your mindset, when in the world of being a combat sports athlete!
Been a while since there's been a preview clip. What better story to bring them back than to find out why Yoel Romero couldn't make Polaris. The Soldier Of God, recieved a sign from god! 😂😂

Local Combat Sports Athletes Face Relentless Travel For Competition
Back after a few weeks break again. In episode 107 we had the pleasure of speaking to local, decorated, amateur Boxer Corey Rizza. What is sparring like for the first time? Amateur Boxing tournaments being so fast paced. Styles make fights, and beating England's number one in Corey's weight class. Other martial arts can help in Boxing? Along with a range of other things we got to talking about. Corey is one of many who are absolutely smashing it for the present and future of Moray's combat sports scene! Pleasure to have him on!

An Announcement Video Escalates Into Chaos
Finally back for episode 106 after some shocking weather the last couple of weeks forced us to push back meeting up. We were delighted to be joined by MacMoray Festivals owner Andy Macdonald for this week's episode. We talk MacMoray, Forres Fest, The importance of putting Moray on the map, the origins of YBD Music, and the incredible story behind 1p chicken wings and chips just to name a couple of topics that we chat about. There's many clips I could of used for the preview, but think we can all agree that this one will make us all whole again. 😂😂 If you know, you know.
Just want to thank Andy for coming on, a local guy that's had a lot of success and is doing amazing things that are putting Moray on the map! Long may it continue! Links to the full episode below.

Grace Nicoll Wants a Role At MacMoray 2024
We're back with video episodes for 2024 finally! What a way to start off the run we plan on going on with none other than local radio legend Grace Nicoll An absolute pleasure, and quite frankly surreal to have Grace in for a chat with listening to her on MFR for years!
We got to talking about Grace's journey into broadcasting, her and Dan's MFR era, and her appearances on BBC the social just to name a few of the things we got to chatting about for the hour and a half we had. Cannot thank Grace enough for the time and taking the journey from Inverness to be in person for the podcast. Last thing, lets get Grace a gig covering MacMoray, get voting in the poll we have on Spotify. Perfect timing as well, considering next week's guest!

Pam truly works 24/7 for this six week period and is incredibly the amount she raises and makes sure every young person has a great surprise on Christmas.

How Societal Attitudes Impact Autistic Life Expectancy
Episode 101.
Was an absolute pleasure to have the chance to speak Dr Luke Beardon for this week's episode of the podcast. Luke's been a guest I've been trying to get on since the start of the year, finally made it happen! Luke has authored countless books, is a senior lecturer, researcher, and public speaker all around the topic of Autism. Some things I got to get Luke's thoughts on were the current life expectancy stats for autistic people in the UK, Autism in the Criminal Justice, the difference in how anxiety is experienced, and why the world insists on Autism being "The Problem" rather than the environment.

Getting More Pro Boxing Shows In Moray
Episode 99.
2023 is the year of the returning guest, and we can continue that trend as we were happy to have a chat with Andrew Smart again. Smarty's next couple of fights could not have more on the line for his career! After some absolutely rotten luck over the last couple years through multiple factors, Smarty is in a tournament to chase Scottish and Celtic titles! We talk about the upcoming fights, as well as talk about the chaos and damage crossover boxing is doing to the traditional game, and as you'll see in the clip, how more pro boxing shows can be brought back to Elgin! Best of luck Smarty on the upcoming bouts! No one deserves to get a hold of that title more with all the adversity you've had to overcome!
Lee getting into promoting game at the end, trying to setup the first ever Mac Moray crossover boxing event! Smart vs Stephen 😂😂 Links to full episode below.
