Former pro MMA fighter turned actor and stuntman Shah Hussain joins Chloë in this episode to take us on an intense journey from the grueling world of MMA to the glitz of Hollywood. The Pakistani powerhouse known as "No Pain" opens up about how he found himself falling in love with MMA and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and the natural way he got his nickname.  From high-pressure fight camps to his triumphant 20-second win, Shah shares the challenges of his MMA career, including parental disapproval and the real reason he stepped out of the cage. Shah reflects on the impact of George Floyd's death on diverse representation in the film industry, and how it opened up opportunities for him in acting, eventually scoring him roles in Netflix's Red Notice alongside A-listers like Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot, Ryan Reynolds and Ed Sheeran. Join us as Shah delves into what he really thinks about Youtube boxing, and the profound influence of role models like Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali. Shah offers an insightful peek into the complex world of combat sports, acting, and life beyond the MMA arena.
