About this episode

This episode discusses the history of Karate's introduction to America and revisits previous topics related to martial arts.

This episode first aired in 2020. In fact it was our 19th episode! (This is our 330th:) Most of the things we mentioned in this episode we have subsequently discussed. Here are a few.
