In this episode of the Patriotic Islander Podcast, I sit with 2025 CNMI Labor Day vice-chair Jesse Agulto as we discuss this year's tournament. We delve into its storied history, witness the explosive growth of this epic reunion, and chart the potential direction of this monumental event. While challenges often confront hosting committees, they are seldom mentioned as this festival-style reunion surges in popularity. We aim to ignite powerful conversations and forge new ideas to propel this magnificent event forward for our Marianas people, both near and far.

14. Twenty Times Stronger: Lessons From The Grind
On this episode myself and guests Ioanis Rossa and Phillip Manalo (pipping) discuss moving from Saipan to the U.S., shifting mindsets, and finding strength through faith, discipline, and vulnerability.
They share practical habits—running, jiu‑jitsu, non‑negotiable routines—and how consistency and positive self‑talk help in dark times.
The episode also celebrates community: a Labor Day softball reunion that preserves culture, lifts others, and turns hard work done in the dark into visible victories.

13. The Come up featuring Professor Greg Anderson
Vulnerability was present in this episode. After taking a hiatus from the pod, I decided it is time to get back on the horse and no one better to set it off with than my Professor Greg Anderson from Electric North Jiu Jitsu and host of the Endless Endeavor. Since I met him back in 2020 , I have been introduced to a great group of people, bad ass community and a greater mindset. Greg was a former Army Ranger, U.S Marshall and Port of Seattle police officer. He eventually got fired from the port for speaking out against the government and ultimately, it led to him finding a better path in life. Today he host a very popular podcast " Endless Endeavor and started an online accountability, "Forge Ferocity". I was excited to sit down but also nervous,lol.. Learn more about him on his podcast go follow and listen.

The boys run a marathon this Sunday down in Tacoma , Please cast good energy and prayers to them as they embark on another milestone in their journey of doing hard shit showing our people that to be better is just incremental steps of ridding bad habits , challenge the thinking ,putting one foot in front of the other and consistently compounding those day in and day out. We never touched on it but they too are doing the Iron man in September down in the Tri Cities.

Here at TNW we are big proponents of our second amendment rights, but we do not view this as just a place to learn to shoot. What we see time and time again both from our customers and our children when they learn a new skill is a noticeable bump in self confidence, and that’s what we’re here to build. More than anything we believe all men and women should be free, and that freedom is a heavy load that requires self reliance and courage. Our ultimate goal is to build the self reliance and self confidence of our customers and to build a community that is courageous enough to stand up for itself.

008. Old habits DIE HARD!
I sat down with Dave Potts on this (3) Three-hour journey he took me on, starting from a very young age developing bad eating habits that compounded into greater issues as he grew older. Very common in our people as most of us are at the poverty level. Families have to pinch pennies and buy cheap foods loaded with thrash just to feed families. Of course we are not mad about it, and we can't blame anyone. We are just mere products of our environment. I think the main thing we can take from all of this is how we can help each other by sharing stories of triumph and overcoming such dark times one endures when encountering the same battles, that Dave has overcome. Crazy thing is, were talking about FOOD! Not many would even try and understand the effects it has on their body or even worse, they know but then ignore all the signs. Even worst, when they seek medication to help them prolong their bad habits! Until one day it's too late, then we start feeling sorry for each other because we are getting sick and having to do medical fundraisers to help for treatment or referrals. This shit needs to start taking a turn now.
"Old habits die hard, and if you're not careful, the person you used to be can overtake the person you are trying to become." TO BE CONTINUED.

007. When things change inside you, Things change around YOU!
On this Episode, I sit down with a good friend, brother, fellow jiu jitsu practitioner and overall salt of the earth guy, Zach McCauley. We shared some commonalities we had with our past and some of the things we endured throughout the path that led us here. Although they may not be the same vices or behaviors, the roads heading here to this life today has scarred our souls in such a way that even a glimmer of one's past would evoke memories of Pain and Trauma. We all know that Pain is subjective to one's heart regardless the of the size. PAIN is PAIN. The state now, is "cleansing" Hence the title.
We both know now the magnitude of where we are now and how we crossed paths. We as men were dealt the card of the long arduous path, we recognize that and are now walking through a different light while we sharpen each other to forge fucken greatness from within to see externally with clarity. Therefore, we can go back to hell and bring more people out!! Said, with gratitude and humility.

005. Pointing a finger at Myself!!
On Episode 005, I sit down with another good friend Professor Mike Kozak as we discuss several topics starting with jiu-jitsu then cruising along and touching base on my people and some of the ways we still operate along with some of our "Island Mentality." As I sit down to talk, more and more I circle back around to the word MINDSET. It never seizes to amaze me how effective a limited mindset is and how it really hinders my people's growth, nonetheless I see greater for all of us and through these conversations I hope you find enlightenment and the power to smash through all of your obstacles. -Love you.
