For episode 146, we welcomed Keith Vitali to the show! His introduction into martial arts came in 1975 at the University of South Carolina, where he was awarded his first black belt after two years. Over the course of the next ten years, Vitali competed in a large number of martial arts tournaments, winning most of them, as well as being ranked the "#1 Karate Fighter in the USA". His number of wins landed him an honored place in Black Belt Magazine's Black Belt Hall of Fame in 1981. The magazine also named Vitali as one of the ten best fighters of all time.


Vitali has appeared in a number of martial arts films, including Superfights, Revenge of the Ninja, Wheels on Meals, The Cut Off, No Retreat, No Surrender 3: Blood Brothers, and American Kickboxer. Vitali has since focused on producing child safety videos and writing children's literature. His book on bullying entitled, "Bullyproof Your Child" was released in fall 2007. Keith recently launched his Sidekicks Podcast which can be found on all streaming services and YouTube! 


In our discussion, we covered his start in martial arts, his onscreen film fight scenes and choreography with Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung in "Wheels on Meals', the cult legacy of the action classic "No Retreat, No Surrender 3: Blood Brothers" alongside Loren Avedon, why it's imperative to protect our children at all costs, his book, "Bullyproof Your Child", film writing, and starting his Sidekicks Podcast, and so much more!
