Episode Notes

Author Bio:
Jeff Nelson is a writer, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, and creative. While his peers were climbing corporate ladders, he was training with some of the best jiu-jitsu athletes in the world, as well as practicing and competing all over the world. But still, he always came back to his true passion, fiction writing. While Ninja Punks, @*&% OFF! is his first published work, he has been writing novels, comics, and films his whole life. He’s needed a few external hard drives to hold everything.

He spends much of his days teaching jiu-jitsu, writing, and trying to expand his history knowledge. But he also tries to make time for hiking, lifting weights, collecting action figures, and watching anime.
