ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This is a re-release of a previous episode with Sean Bailey. It was an absolute banger then, and it is today. Sean's been on a tear recently with his send of AOTB [V17], opening a new gym in Tokyo, and theres rumors of even more hard sending. Because of this, we thought it was a great time to bring this one back.
We're on holiday this week, but we'll be back to normal starting next week. Happy holidays and new year everyone!
