"History???" The Martial Truth Podcast #65 Michael Calandra

History? The history of Karate and Kobudo is rife with mistakes. Legend is taken as fact. Sources for information are not cited. Who to believe. I choose to believe the real researchers doing real historical research. People like Patrick McCarthy, Andreas Quast, Thomas Feldmann, amongst several others. Relax, don't get so upset if the history doesn't go your way. Have fun with it. Remember the physical training in these arts is what really matters.

Can you talk about aikido because it is a very misunderstood martial art

[@Noone-rt6pw]

My source sounds like simply wanting to sound important by adding some mystiques, which is bullcrap, unless the source doesn’t want to be acknowledged! Too much TV, my source dah dah dah! Trying to act like John Wayne or others!
