This week on the show, Maine and Miranda accompanied by Cory recap Polaris 34 that took place earlier in the day we discussed the entire squads event and every single match in the men's tournament as well as both women's title fights between Ffion Davies and Margot Ciccarelli and Helena Crevar versus Sula Mae-Loewenthal.

In the recap section of the show, we talk about the absolutely incredible performances from the athletes to cross the entire squads event, including stand-up performances and showings by Mateusz Szczeciński. We discussed the overwhelming focus on leg locks for the event and the commanding lead that team Europe took early and then never let go out throughout both houses of the squads event. We recap all of the action and discuss why the format works so well and how potentially we would like to see it used in CJI 3.

In the recap of the women's title fights, we discussed Ffion pacing and the absolute return to form in her top game and passing pressure with her, taking a commanding decision victory over Margot Ciccarelli after three rounds.

In our recap of Helena Crevar versus Sula Mae-Loewenthal we discussed the nearly 2 minute round one submission that saw Crevar finish a modified head and arm from the mount to retain her title on Polaris
