Description

Jordan and Alex hurtle their bodies off the top of a keyboard and microphone with no safety precautions to bring you an in-depth discussion of 1998's classic 'Rush Hour'! Podcast stunt coordinators were horrified at the lengths Alex goes to in his Jackie Chan fandom, unpacking Chan's legacy as one of the world's singular entertainers, the film's role in Hollywood's Nineties' dalliance with the Hong Kong martial-arts/action-film industry, and the difficulties Jackie had on his first English-language feature. Along the way, Jordan and Alex will recount the first meeting between Jackie and co-star Chris Tucker that led to one of the film's most famous lines, recount a brief litany of Chan's most horrific injuries, and marvel at the fact that he apparently once catered one of his own films — while also working as the gaffer and composing the theme song!
