It's NINJA NOVEMBER and the boys are joined by film historian CHRIS POGGIALI to explore thhe world of NEW YORK NINJA- a film whose story of how it was made is nearly as fascinating as the movie itself. You might think you know the story of how this nearly lost film from 1984 was brought to life by Vinegar Syndrome in 2021, but we bet you haven't heard half the story our friend Chris reveals to us here! Along the way we talk about why physical media is so important, the secret history of the PLUTONIUM KILLER, what surprising gear ninjas just might have carried, and much, much more!
