Our Scottish team of Stoo and Andy are in the Vincent Zhao-years of the Once Upon A Time In China-series as parts 4 and 5 are discussed in this episode! Our audio equipment goes a little screw-ball-scramble towards the second half but the worst is edited out.

The Scottish edition of Podcast On Fire with Stoo and Andy carry on with their Once Upon A Time In China coverage, with towel- and flaming arrows action from Jet Li and Donnie Yen. Which can only mean parts 2 and 3 are up for discussion. The audio is a little wonky, but that thankfully should be the last…the last of the wonk.

The moment has come and the waiting is over, The Magnificent Trio that is Podcast On Fire re-unites for the first time in 8 months!

Mike also gives us a glimpse into his new mostly POF free and cold life but it comes with the advantages of meeting a legendary Hong Kong director on the streets of Seoul. Dance routines are a big disadvantage to life in Korea though…

To escape certain death he takes sanctuary in a cave within the ominous Zu Mountain, where he becomes entangled in a battle with supernatural forces threatening to destroy the world.

Guided by a mysterious swordsman (Adam Cheng), Biao must harness the power of two mystical swords; the only weapons on Earth capable of defeating his omnipotent enemy. Read More
