In part one of the interview, Josh admits that he had a hurt foot and was fortunate not to get picked for the first match up. Also, he was happy to be chosen for Chuck Liddell’s team because not only did he have a lot to learn from Chuck, but the team was stacked with an all star team of coaches. In this episode, Tito Ortiz and Dana White seemed to think that Tito got all the good fighters and Chuck got all the short and less talented ones. However, Josh points out that Liddell is up one to nothing, they have control of the next fight picks, and they are full of talented guys.
Bryant goes on to say that the extremely mouthy Jamie Yager is very douchey on camera, but off camera, he is not nearly as big of a d-bag, so he appears to be trying to play it up to the cameras and make a name for himself.

In part two, Josh discusses the different coaching styles of Chuck and Tito, and he discusses the incident in which the guys in the house were blowing off air horns at three in the morning. Apparently, that was edited down for the show, and in actuality, they carried that on for twenty minutes.
Then, our own Matthew J. Swanson just has to ask if Tito Ortiz’s head is as big in person as it looks on television; give a listen to hear what Josh has to say about that!
And for some reason, the wonderful looking mansion that these guys lived in had a pool that wasn’t heated? Also, he and five other guys had to share one room, one bathroom, and one closet. He then discusses the rivalries between the teams and the importance of team solidarity when everyone is so cut off from their friends and families.
Finally, Josh tells us that one thing to be looking out for in episodes to come is a lot of great fights, which for anyone who is into the show more for the fighting and less for the reality TV drama, this is terrific news!
