The Rear Naked Choke, Featuring Joe & Ted

Just days before their IFL Semifinal match, coach Shawn Tompkins and light-heavyweight Alex Schoenauer of the LA Anacondas joined Joe & Ted in person, laughing it up for an hour. LISTEN HERE!

Joe & Ted went to the IFL’s hotel HQ in Teaneck, NJ, set up shop and jawed with Tompkins and Schoenauer while luminaries from the league popped in and out to check it out. Even the commish, Kurt Otto, pulled up a chair and took it all in.

The guys got things jump-started by getting Emily on the line, making Shawn blush like a shy teenager. When things settled down, the discussion covered everything from the Tompkins House to Canada to hockey to Chris Horodecki (a guest Thursday, Aug. 2 on Joe & Ted’s live stream from the Meadowlands prior to the semifinals).

Alex got behind the mic, and Joe eventually busted him for lying. But that was long after Ted’s interrogation about cooking, captaining a ship and puking. Did Joe & Ted get Alex to sing? Check out the show and find out!

Erik Owings went off about religion, nutrition and Brazilian chics, while Jamal Patterson reminisced about growing up in North Jersey and laid out what it takes to have a full-time job and still kick some IFL ass in the latest edition of The RON Show, Featuring Joe & Ted: Mundane Family Entertainment. The teammates on the NY Pitbulls of the International Fight league (IFL) joined the guys Monday night for a 66-minute spectacular that can be heard right here. Owings shocked Joe & Ted, admitting his mySpace is not very serious, but went on to give multi-layered opinions on religion and nutrition. The 155-pounder from Kentucky speaks fluent Portuguese, which comes in handy with the girls on his annual trips to Brazil. Oh yeah, and we should mention he is fighting Savant Young on August 2 in the Meadowlands, where the IFL semifinals will be taking place. The Pitbulls take on the Tokyo Sabres, and the Los Angeles Anacondas meet the Quad Cities Silverbacks. This was the fourth and final feature show for the IFL semifinalists, and Patterson closed it out like Mariano Rivera in a playoff game. Jamal will face Vladimir “The Janitor” Matyushenko of the Sabres, who joined us July 16, in his semifinal match in the 205-pound class. Should The Janitor invoke Ivan Drago before the fight and tell Jamal “I must break you” as he said to Joe & Ted, then Jamal will be ready with his Rocky-esque response. Tune in.
