Interview with Martial Arts Pioneer John Graden

Show host Charles Hubbell interviews martial artist John Graden. A pioneer in American Martial Arts, John is a former member of many world champion U.S. kickboxing teams and an inductee into The World Martial Arts Hall of Fame. John's martial arts management system is used by martial arts schools across the United States. In 1997, as publisher of the magazine for NAPMA (National Association of Professional Martial Artists), he did a three-month series on John C. Kim and Chung Moo Quan titled "The Cult in the Quan: the Fall of a Martial Arts Magnet," which included interviews with podcast creator Russell Johnson. In this interview, John talks about his history in martial arts, his book WHO KILLED WALT BONE?, his opinions on the legitimacy of championships and titles in the martial arts, the cost of martial arts lessons, and cults in the martial arts. John's off-the-cuff, no-holds-barred interview offers unique perspective and insights into the world of martial arts. "Deceived: The Moo Years" is the true story of one young man's compelling, at times terrifying, former involvement with the martial arts cult Chung Moo Quan.
