In this episode, Owen does a solo cast with Joseph Crandall. Pioneering translator of Chinese Kung Fu manuals and practitioner and teacher of Bagua, Xingyi and Taiji.

From the Plum Publications web site:

"Joseph Crandall, translator, is a Ba Gua practitioner who has taken onto himself the heroic task of translating and making available many key works of WuShu...... As Crandall writes in his introduction; "I have been waiting for someone more qualified to come along and do a better job at these translations than I do. I know that there are many out there who could do it." What Crandall doesn't mention is the dedication and knowledge he has brought to the worthy fundamental project."

In this episode Randel and Owen talk with Veronika Partikova PhD about learning traditional Hung Gar in Hong Kong, coaching Kung Fu on her online line platform "The Kung Fu Academic", and training MMA in Thailand.

From her website:

"Born in the Czech Republic, I fell in love with martial arts in 1999. My journey has taken me from Shotokan Karate to Hung Kuen Kung Fu and now Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). I am a professional MMA and Muay Thai fighter, a World Champion in Kung Fu, and a proud holder of a black belt in Karate.​

Pursuing my love for Kung Fu, I relocated to Hong Kong eight years ago to further my studies and earn a Ph.D. in Sports Psychology. In 2022, I moved to Thailand to train professionally in MMA.

Now, at 36 years old, I fight professionally and coach kung fu online."
