Meet the legend: 🏀🎙️

​We finally sat down with Kat Tan. Most know her as the "One-Armed Mamba," but we wanted to get to know the person behind the highlights.

​We talk about everything: the school fair accident that cost her her left arm, meeting Kobe Bryant 3 times, and her "impossible" basketball journey. But beyond the highlights, we talk about the normal, funny, and down-to-earth side of Kat that makes her so incredibly relatable.

She knew something was wrong before she lost her arm. ⚠️

In this clip, Kat takes us back to the school fair—the fun, the rides, and that sinking "bad feeling" that something wasn't right. It was the intuition she felt just minutes before the accident that would result in her losing her left arm.

How she handled that day at such a young age is nothing short of legendary.

The One-Armed Mamba is in the building! 🏀🎙️

​You might know Kat Tan for her legendary skills on the court and her three life-changing meetings with Kobe Bryant. But behind the highlights is a journey of pure grit.

​In this episode, Kat recounts the school fair accident that led to her losing her left arm—and the incredible mindset it took to keep moving forward. But it’s not all serious! We dive into other aspects of her life, funny work stories, and the random topics that prove she’s one of the most down-to-earth people we’ve ever met.

From raw survival to random laughs, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Kiefer goes deep on life, realizations, and growing up. 🧘‍♂️🏀

He opens up about the era when he was completely "lost in the sauce"—where it was basketball 24/7 and everything else in life took a backseat. Kiefer shares his journey of maturing as a person, finding a true life balance, and learning to prioritize what actually matters. He’s finally at a place where he can relax, breathe, and—honestly—not give a damn about the noise or the negativity from the sidelines.
