ep.82 | Bloodsport
We're entering into the wild world of Bloodsport, the ultimate Jean-Claude Van Damme flick that kicks off our chat about martial arts movies.
This episode's all about how JCVD sets the bar for action heroes with his iconic splits and roundhouse kicks, while we also poke fun at the fact that Frank Duk’s story is, well, a bit of a tall tale.
We throw in some light-hearted banter about the movie's over-the-top moments and the hilariously exaggerated claims surrounding Duk himself.
Plus, we can't resist a few cheeky comparisons to modern-day UFC and some classic wrestling references.
So grab your popcorn and get ready for some laughs as we unpack this action-packed classic!
