In this thought-provoking podcast, we sit down with the brilliant Daniele Bolelli—author, historian, martial artist, and host of the History on Fire podcast—to explore whether martial arts has the power to unite people across cultures, beliefs, and backgrounds. We dive deep into the philosophy and practice of martial arts, unpacking how it fosters discipline, respect, and a sense of community. But that’s not all! Our conversation takes a fascinating turn as we compare the transformative impact of the Industrial Revolution to today’s technological revolution driven by social media. Are we more connected or more divided in this era of rapid technological change? How does martial arts provide a grounding?
