The Church of What's Happening Now: The New Testament

Alberto Crane, former UFC fighter and Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach, shares stories from his fighting career and why he wrote All In. He talks training roots, building a global school network, coaching vs competing, tactical fitness and recovery. He also opens up about an MS diagnosis and how it reshaped his priorities and presence with family.

A raucous return to Coco with stories about gambling misfortune, mixing edibles and pills, and learning to set limits at the casino. Wild tales of psychedelic binges, tolerance, and reckless youth leading to run-ins with dealers and undercover agents. Reflections on pandemic anxiety, moving for family stability, reclaiming identity, and embracing failure as a new outlook.

Wild blackjack runs and casino superstitions make for lively storytelling. Road romances and a memorable skin-tag story bring awkward, funny moments. Honest talk about aging, sexual performance aids, and quitting habits lands candid and raw. Touring life, old-school teachers, and the sacrifices behind comedy tie the tales together.
