On the radio show I was on for a while we reported on Hendricks MMA debut, so I feel like you can’t report on him or interview him. He is mine. lol.
As a side note, he debuted on a card with Shane Roller, another big time wrestler who made his WEC debut recently and I picked to upset Todd Moore. He did just that. I like Hendricks to win this matchup.

What radio show? it was on the internet so radio is a misnomer, but is was on fightersmind.com. The show was called Sweep The Leg and I was the co-host. It kind of fell apart after UFC 78. The website is like a snapshot in time.

![A little publicity for me today in the Washington City Paper. To wit:
But listening to Kinard, it sounds like management has decided Thomas can transcend his surroundings.
"We thought we’d experiment with some different kinds of shows last year, and of all of them, MMA Nation is the only one that lasted," Kinard says. "I wasn’t aware of anybody else doing [an MMA show]. And [in April] he outperformed our normal weekend ratings by more than double. We started out thinking this has the potential to be a nationally syndicated show, and that’s still our plan. You see MMA all over the place on TV, so why not on the radio?"
I hate to be over the top with the self-promotion, but no one is going to hand me the job and career I'm after. I want to work in MMA full time and the fact is I have to make it happen for myself. Thank you to everyone who has ever shown me an ounce of support towards the pursuit of that dream.
Onward and upward.](http://cdn0.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/54844/1244671916_m_cheap-1_small.jpg)
