Ep. 620 Count Juan Raphael Dante

JACOB TRIMMER AND TIM GROESCHEL
About this episode

We got a wild one for you today, dear listeners, as we head off to Chicago in the 1960s and 70s. Martial arts master Count Juan Raphael Dante (not his birth name) was a crazy motherfucker, but also legit at the same time. Like, all the way out there. And yet...you'll see. Just when you think you have a handle on the guy, he throws a goddamn curve ball. But the story is a lot of fun, so enjoy!
