Requested by one of our patrons at WhenItWasCool.com, this episode looks at the mystic martial arts scams and cons of the 1970s into the era of UFC and mixed martial arts where the general public finally learned how real fighting works and that the Dim Mak death touch was, perhaps, a work of fiction.
On this episode we look at some great and now hilarious martial arts claims, martial arts comic book ads, martial arts in popular culture in the 1970s in the post-Bruce Lee era, and what finally wised the public up to the McDojo con. Host Karl Stern also takes you back to the early days of the UFC where he covered the promotion from the very start.
