Episode Notes

Actor Rong Fu  -- whom you might know from Pretty Hard Cases and Hello (Again), and who's now a member of the Enterprise bridge crew in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds -- is here to talk about discovering Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill, Vol. 1 in her teens, and the rush that came with discovering Lucy Liu's O-Ren Ishii and realizing badass villains could be more than just one-dimensional antagonists. Your genial host Norm Wilner gets it, he really does. (And check out Norm's new newsletter project Shiny Things, a weekly look at physical media, culture and probably some streaming titles as well, because that's how we all live now.)
