  • Always entertaining

    I’ve been listening to the podcast for several years. It’s always entertaining and well researched. Ken and the other guests passion for films had reignited my passion for classic HK cinema which seems to have coincided with several of the UK dvd/blu ray companies releasing the same content.

    More of the same and don’t stop.
