Open GuardCast #129: Lionel Turner of Leao Optics

This episode was a fun one. I haven't had the opportunity to sit down and enjoy a conversation with Lionel in some time, and I really enjoyed this reunion. You'll hear me refer to him as "larger than life" in the episode, and you'll understand what I mean when you hear his passion. I am so happy Leao Optics is making the return, the Jiu-Jitsu community has a missing puzzle piece back in place.
