29 AGO. 2021 · Featured guest in this episode is Kyle Green Ph.D., Associate Professor of Sociology at SUNY Brockport. As both passionate MMA fans and academic scholars, Kyle and Tunisha discuss commonalities in higher education’s ill first impression about studying sports at a high, accredited level. In an evenly critical and comedic conversation (comedic at least for Tunisha…😏), additional topics include their co-authored publication on UFC’s narratively framed brand identity during COVID-19, potential dealbreakers in fandom, appropriate thinking vs overthinking, Kyle’s experience as an MMA practitioner leading him to Ph.D., and much more.
Also, a fun rapid-fire bit to close where these two hit:
- Is Mariah Carey the GOAT diva?
- Favorite horror movie
- Kyle’s loss against Tunisha in the most Prestigious NBA Playoff Pool of All Time
- Best cheese

8 AGO. 2021 · Season 2 of the IHQ Pod is here.
On Feb. 10, 2007, the first Women’s MMA fight to air on live television featured Gina Carano vs Julie Kedzie.
In this episode, Tunisha chops it up with WMMA pioneer, matchmaker, commentator, and all-around badass Julie Kedzie. Conversation crosses the professional and personal scales with insight and perspective on the cost of MMA entering the “mothership mainstream” of ESPN, her entry into Taekwondo at age 4, the good and bad complexity of the MMA community, pitting women against women everywhere, and making space for yourself in spite of cultural and gender expectations. And oh yea, Julie ALSO has an MFA in Nonfiction Literature from the University of Iowa, and we compare scholarly/academic environments with sport/athletic spaces.

6 ENE. 2021 · “The primary work is acknowledging that my position in the world, is not the position in the world.” - Josh Rosenblatt
In this Season 1 Finale Episode, Tunisha is joined by Josh Rosenblatt, former guest, author of Why We Fight, and friend of the show. Through their wildly random, honest, and intersected conversation, these two break down entitlement vs expectation and rethink innovation to emphasize recognizing a need and fulfilling it. People won’t be ready for things until you show them something different.
Whether it’s Jordan Peele to horror movies, Josh’s authorship at the intersection of combat sports and society, or deconstructing white guilt to learn the difference between being not racist vs being anti-racism…this episode adds a sincere perspective about awareness and human connection.
