The Quest w/ Jon Gabrus (Classic)

About this episode

The episode discusses Jean Claude Van Damme's film The Quest with guest Jon Gabrus.

Jean Claude Van Damme’s directorial debut was 1996's The Quest, a.k.a. a more watered-down version of Bloodsport that takes place in the past and is not nearly as good. JCVD aficionado Jon Gabrus (Staying Alive, Action Boyz) helps Paul, June, and Jason discuss Old Man Van Damme, French clown Van Damme, if men should be flexible, the blimp, the child street gang, and so much more. (Ep. #133 Originally Released 04/01/2016)
