“Death is too good for you. Finish your life as a blind man.”

It’s the second week of our Big in Japan 2: Even Bigger theme month and we’re welcoming back our good buddy Samuel Dumas from The Department of Menial Humor to talk about this modern remake of the classic Japanese blind swordsman character that’s influenced everything from Daredevil’s mentor to Richard “The Fugitive” Kimble! Along the way, you can also hear Sam and Stephen talk speculate on the future of their original podcast Rule of Thirds and experience Tucker having an existential crisis in real time! Listen now!

Even with his eyes closed, he still can’t see a thing. If your eyes are open, maybe you can see for yourselves what our buddy Samuel Dumas has going on right now:
