Episode description
Happy Friday dear fiends! We're back to continue our East Goes West Crime Wave Marathon. And this week, we're here with the heavy hitter—one Mr. Jackie Chan. But, we're going modern with his 2017 old man action tale The Foreigner, directed by Martin Campbell and co-starring Pierce Brosnan. On this week's episode, we're talking about the IRA, terrorism, old man action, and much, much more as we attempt to get to the heart of the troubles in The Foreigner.
