Greg Schaum--former Royals post-game radio host, baseball advisor/agent, Director of Player Development, and current Partner and Director of Sports Recruiting at Klutch MFM--joins us to look back at the film he grew up loving that boldly asked the question: What if we took an Olympic-level athlete who may or may not be charismatic enough to carry a major motion picture and tried to turn him into a martial arts movie star, complete with an entirely new discipline built around his legitimately impressive skillset? Did Kurt Thomas earn his Razzie nomination? Were background actors maimed while making this film? Was said maiming committed to celluloid? Did production seriously just hire out their extras from an asylum and compensate them with a buffet and alcohol? The answers to these and so many other questions lie within this triumphant episode of the Unkind Rewind.
