Fireworks’ Japanese title is not Oniba, but actually Hana-bi. As retribution, I demand you review the 1964 horror classic, Onibaba.
You are correct,sir! I saw Onibaba many years ago, so that may be why I messed it up. Well, that and the fact that Japanese confuses the spit out of me and I was working from memory. The way my mistakes and mis-spoken-isms are piling up, we’ll have to do a corrections segment soon. Thanks for catching that one!
And as long as I’m doing some mea culpa’s, I referred to Ellis Amdur as a “Karate teacher”. Of course, that’s all wrong and I should have said something like “traditional Japanese martial arts teacher” if I wasn’t going to refer specifically to the arts he teaches. I cringe every time I hear myself do that, but no slight was intended. It’s just a side effect of the way we casually speak of “karate guys” and “fu boys” when bantering amongst ourselves, but I will try to watch that on the podcast in the future… especially when I’m tagging former guests who might stop by the house one day and break a bo-staff over my thick skull. 😉
I think the reason Dave got it twisted was because he may very well still have a frog in his pants…And this must have distracted him.
Great podcasts so far. It was awesome to hear Shaoming mentioned. I was a Xing Yi and Bagua student of his while he was in Austin. Keep up the good work!
I love the podcasts. I have been listening to them at work. I have found them very informative and quite entertaining as I go about my mind numbing job. Keep the high going all ya.
