The first time I saw someone breaking pine wood for sport, I was like, hold up, I think I just found my new favorite thing.

Karate is such a badass martial arts style.

It's rooted in discipline and self-defense. I love everything about it from the uniforms which are called ghee to breaking boards to the wild hayya noises.

So just call me Mr. Miyagi know what else because today I'm going to teach you everything you need to know

about karate's origin, how it spread to America, and what does Haya even mean anyway?

Hi my name is Bella and you might know me as Jay is from Tik-Tock or YouTube.

But you're about to know me from this podcast.

Know-It-All.

In each episode, I'm going to help you become a Know-it-all about something new. Here we go.

I'm on this.

I'm on this karate kick pun intended because Cobra Kai just dropped its third season and it's more badass than ever

if you haven't seen the show Cobra k Kai visits the Karate Kid franchise, 34 years later,

rekindling the rivalry between Daniel La Russo, played by Ralph Mashio, and Johnny Lawrence, played

by William Zapka.

Except this time around, we see the story from Johnny's point of view.

He's down on his luck and reopens Cobra Kai

in an attempt to turn his life round.

A reluctant hero, but still a hero after all.

You're going to be my karate teacher?

No. I'm going to be your sensei.

Yeah!

I'm going to teach you the style of karate that was taught to me.
