Podcast On Fire 120: Proud & Confidence

This week, Kenny B and Tom K-W go in depth on the upcoming show Taiwan Noir, Tom contemplates doing a Ken-free commentary (cue cheer from the audience!) as well as covering a film from the director who was kidnapped by Kim Jong-il! The week’s main review is ‘Hong Kong Top Gun’ (kinda) aka King Lee’s Proud & Confidence starring Andy Lau. Somewhat homoerotic behaviour (which is healthy of course) follows with lots of Dick coming your Wei and even Scud logically finds a place in the discussion!
