What really happens when everything is on the line?
With security, public safety, and real-world threats dominating headlines right now, including the shooting at the white house correspondence dinner where you saw Dana White and others, this episode couldn’t be more relevant.
Join Nick Lamagna on The A Game Podcast: Real Estate Investing For Entrepreneurs for a RETURN appearance with one of the most unique and fascinating guests we’ve ever had on the show – Joe Scargill, an active U.S. Secret Service agent, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt, and leader responsible for protecting high-level targets in some of the most high-pressure environments in the world.
This isn’t just a conversation about law enforcement—it’s a deep dive into how to stay calm, think clearly, and execute when everything is at stake.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, investor, athlete, or someone looking to perform at a higher level, the lessons in this episode will change how you approach pressure, risk, and decision-making.
He is the man behind Academy Safe, a nonprofit organization dedicated to certifying martial arts schools with background checks, safety protocols and standards that protect students, kids and families training in gyms across the country. You can find him at A Force BJJ in Ponte Vedre, FL!
You will want to hear his incredible story of what it really takes to operate at the highest level under the highest pressure every single day!
While most people only see what happens on the surface, Joe shares rare insight into:
✅ How the Secret Service actually handles real-world threats
✅ How Jiu Jitsu trains your brain to make better decisions under pressure
✅ The honest truth about TRT, peptides and BPC-157 for aging athletes
✅ Why cooking at home may be the most underrated health hack you’re ignoring
