“Are you looking for an MMA podcast, but tired of always getting the same leftover, reheated hot takes... from the same stereotypical, self-described “alpha males”... with the same antiquated, off-color “jokes” about anyone even slightly different from the brototype mold they crawled out of?
Then your search is over, my friend!
“Well, Actually...” is a deep breath of fresh meadow air, much-needed in a cultural landscape that could otherwise be described as a windowless room that smells like farts.
This podcast is good. It’s not good BECAUSE it’s something different; it’s something different AND IT IS GOOD. It’s not good BECAUSE the podscape is littered with decaying monuments to man’s hubris; it’s good because this woman does GREAT WORK.
It’s worth your time, and your interest. Fernanda Prates has a deep appreciation of nuance, in a world where everyone feels a need to reduce every situation to either “black” or “white”.

She likes to talk to super interesting people in the MMA world, whose voices have not had nearly enough airtime. She’s honest about insecurities and self-criticism, and I don’t trust anyone who claims they AREN’T plagued by doubts and fears about themselves. What are they, psychopaths?!”

“As a podcaster myself, I am often critical of others work. Not in a bad way, just in a way that only someone who has been behind the mic can do, and I constantly listen to other for inspiration. Fernanda is the gold standard. No one else in MMA is having the types of conversations she has. No one...”Read full review »
