This short, and somewhat odd, but sweet Podcast is probably the only one I’ll be hosting for a long time. This is really just a taster session between new POF guest Jim (not Jimmy or James - he does mind!) Aylmore (aka ‘tonsofun’) and myself. Here Jim kindly answers questions and… laughs evilly over his “New Phone” - also features a surprise guest.

The Magnificent Trio strike again - Ninja Style! We answer questions on the best screen fighters and what’s the deal with Subtitles? Plus our usual yarn! It’s good stuff! Also a great Sammo Hung tangent (for forum members only, click the ninja to join).
Yeah so, the Shaw Brother Show has been delayed. With the original 6 people involved, it kinda just burnt down to the Magnificent Trio. We really wanted all six to be on this show, even hoped to get it over three hours. But the toils and troubles of life has delayed the podcast.
Also we’re going to take a break for a couple weeks. Podcast on Fire 15 could appear this week. Ya never know…
