Viva Chiba! The Bodyguard (1973)

We head to Japan this week to rid the entire country of all the drugs with the help of martial arts master, Sonny Chiba. We're joined by friend of the show Guy, as he acts as our sherpa into the world of Sonny Chiba with the 1973 film, Viva Chiba! The Bodyguard.

Join us as we discuss the influence on Quentin Tarantino, how much of the plot we actually understood, and try to decide if Sonny Chiba was actually a good bodyhuard.
