Ryan “The Lion” Schultz joined Joe & Ted to talk a little bit about his upcoming IFL lightweight title defense against Deividas Taurosevicius on May 16 at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut and a lot about “Jet Guy”.

Ryan says he is going to remain King of the Jungle. He also talked about how he actually went snowboarding with his brother during the training period, attacking the mountain with reckless abandon.

Ryan has plans for after the fight, and they might include hanging out with Joe & Ted, but then a family fishing trip somewhere (listen to find out) might be in store, as well.

Then there was more ripping on Jets fans.

Additionally, the guys talked about Ian “The Barn Owl’ Loveland cutting off his permed mullet (a story that originally was broken on The RNC by Zac George).

COUPLA THINGS

-Last week we found out Joey “Coyote” Guel (pronounced GALE) will be fighting Matt “Suave” Horwich at Mohegan Sun on the IFL’s next card. You heard it here first!

We’ll introduce you to Joey (12-5) and his coach, Carlos Hernandez, in the coming weeks on The Rear Naked Choke!

Joey and Carlos were in the corner for Bad Brad Blackburn’s amazing comeback knockout of Delson Heleno!

-The IFL also filled out the remainder of the Mohegan Sun card, including Nick Calandrino, who hails from Joe’s home town of Emerson, NJ. Nick will be fighting John Howard in a welterweight bout.

-At the end of last week’s show with Matt Lindland, Joe & Ted finally got enlightened and named the heretofore unnamed segment. That segment where Ted asks the listener a bunch of this-or-that questions has been christened THE CHOKEOUT - listen to who officially takes it on for the first time!

Matt “The Law” Lindland (R.) joined Joe & Ted to talk about his run to become Representative of the 52nd District Seat in the Oregon, but do not think for a second that he was politically correct.

Matt was not afraid to mix it up with the guys, telling dirty jokes and enjoying the light-hearted approach favored by the hosts. Here is his site for election.

The Law talked about his upcoming fight July 19 against a yet undetermined opponent, and the chance to fight three times for Affliction.

He did not shy away from telling the story of why the UFC and he do not see eye-to-eye, and even gave an account of the Nate Quarry-Kalib Starnes “fight” from the recent UFC card, not to mention his opinion of the fighters in that organization, including Anderson Silva.

Prior to Matt, Joe & Ted welcomed back Charles Michelson, who was producer for a while when it was called The Ron Show, Featuring Joe & Ted: Mundane Family Entertainment.

Charles recounted the show’s beginnings and gave some deep background about how the show got off the ground. He also gave his expert insider’s assessment of how the show is doing now.

It’s a great history lesson as we move closer to the video age of The Rear Naked Choke!

The red-hot author and the Red Devil.

Martin Rooney, author of the red-hot book “Training for Warriors” and Zac “The Red Devil” George of Team Quest covered everything on Monday with Joe & Ted on The Rear Naked Choke.

Martin runs Parisi Speed Schools and is a best-selling author with his book “Training for Warriors” - but he also is a family man. He has recently trained NFL draftees Chris Long, Ray Rice and others.

A long-time friend of Renzo Gracie, Martin is heavily involved with Renzo’s camp and its entry in the IFL. Stay tuned to the end to hear about how serendipity played a huge part in bringing him from the US Bobsled team to MMA! Talk about a series of events…

Zac is fighting at Mohegan Sun on May 16 against Josh Souder (The RNC was first with the matchup) in a lightweight (155-pound) match.

The Red Devil went to Oklahoma, but he did not wrestle there. Hear about what he did as a Sooner before heading to Team Quest.

Zac also gave a lesson in ManBearPig to the clueless hosts and promised to pass along good wishes from Joe to Ian “The Barn Owl” Loveland. Joe and Ian were supposed to have a beer or two or seven after the Feb. 29 IFL event, but it did not happen.

Well into the middle of the night after the IFL had completed its event, there was another competition just across the Meadowlands. And JoeTed.com was there! Breaking into video a little differently than expected, check out the video clip below of CrossFit legend AllisonNYC doing pullups to try and win a bet. You might also see some other familiar faces from The RNC!

On April 7, we returned to the regular schedule with a look back at the recent IFL event:

“Bad” Brad Blackburn joined The RNC to talk about his amazing comeback knockout of Delson Heleno, the potential for an IFL welterweight title fight and his Behind the Scenes with Joe & Ted video. Brad also digs the first-ever video produced on JoeTed.com and gave some of the background to its making!

Starting off the show was James “The Kitch” Kitcher, who runs JoeTed.com and sometimes a co-host and contributor, not to mention a CrossFitter and personal trainer. The Kitch recently was hanging in Sacramento with Matt “Suave” Horwich and Urijah “The California Kid” Faber, and gave the update on how it all shook down. The Kitch also riffed about the star of the JoeTed video (it’s just below), CrossFit AllisonNYC!

With Joe & Ted & The RNC crew looking on at ringside the Meadowlands April 4, Bad Brad Blackburn came through with a bang.

Bad Brad was in trouble after losing the first two rounds to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu master Delson Heleno and he needed a knockout in the third round to win.

He got it.

RESULTS:

Jay Hieron defends welterweight belt over Mark Miller, TKO 2:10 Round 1

Wagnney Fabiano defends featherweight belt over Shad Lierley, KO :30 Round 1

Vladimir Matyushenko defends light heavyweight belt over Jamal Patterson, TKO 3:20 Round 2

Brad Blackburn defeats Delson Heleno via KO at 1:50 Round 3.

Alex Schoenauer defeats Brendan Barrett at light heavyweight via split decision

LC Davis defeats Rafael Dias at featherweight via knockout (leg kick) at 3:56 Round 3

Chris Horodecki defeats Nate Lamotte at lightweight via unanimous decision.

Jim Miller defeats Bart Palaszewski at lightweight via unanimous decision.

Emyr Bussade defeats Jesse Lennox via tapout due to submission on kneebar at 1:25 Round 2.

Carmelo Marrero vs. Mike Ciesnolevicz ruled no contest due to accidental headbbut cut on Marrero at 1:37 Round 1.

What you might not know is that The Rear Naked Choke video squad was behind the scenes with Bad Brad from the time he got off the plane! To watch the inside story behind one of the greatest in-fight comebacks in IFL history, keep track of www.joeted.com and listen to The RNC.

Prior to settling in for the fights, Joe & Ted had Ring Girls and Big(gest) Losers. Oh yeah, and fighters, too!

Ring Girl Lauren Urso, who was one of the winners of the IFL/NY Post Ring Girl contest, was the first guest and got things (and Ted) heated up in a hurry.

The massive Conan Silveira from American Top Team talked about coming from Brazil to Miami and gave some good intel on his fighters.

Jim Germanakos from The Biggest Loser stepped in. Jim is a big MMA fan and knows a thing or two about dropping weight and getting into shape. His brother, Bill, won the title after 17 weeks on the ranch. Jim stayed for six weeks and Bill for the entire 17.

Then it got to the fighters, with Deividas Taurosevicius and Mike Massenzio, both of whom will be fighting on the IFL’s May 16 card at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut.

Deividas’ wrist injury kept him from fighting in the Meadowlands but he has been cleared to battle for the lightweight title against Ryan “The Lion” Schultz. Deividas is from Lithuania and recounted his professional athletic start as a rugby player.

Massenzio, who will be making his IFL debut at Mohegan Sun, capped it off by talking about his amazing New Jersey high school wrestling career and his current role as a high school coach and MMA fighter. He was 142-13 in high school and is now 10-1 in MMA!

Brad Blackburn, Pat Miletich (yes a mini Miltetich Love In finally got to happen!), Vladmir Matyushenko & Shad Lierley join Joe & Ted at the IFL hotel two days before the Meadowlands event. It was a veritable roundtable of experts, but the chattered covered everything from weight cutting, to UFC vs. IFL and somehow, just somehow got to Bad Brad Blackburn telling a story about how he ripped apart a very sensitive, vital part of his body.

Without a doubt, that aforementioned story is THE MOST HILARIOUS MOMENT IN RNC HISTORY that had Joe and Ted and everyone just gasping for air in fits of hysteria! Find out what the body part was and how it got torn along with all the rest of the fantastic MMA entertainment. Go ahead. Do it. You know you want to know. We even bet you think you know. But you don’t. Not until you…
