This week’s guests on the special edition Bruce Lee Foundation takeover of the Bruce Lee Podcast for the month of May are The Twinjas—Ollie and Jonny Ho—and professional MMA fighter, stunt performer, and coach Austin Liu.

Shannon has known Ollie and Jonny Ho, known as The Twinjas, their whole lives. Their father, Steven Ho (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Conan O'Brien), has been a previous guest on the podcast and is a longtime friend. Identical twins and martial arts prodigies, the boys are making waves across entertainment, athletics, and fashion.

They’ve trained since the age of four and have competed across multiple martial disciplines including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, boxing, Muay Thai, and more. Their infectious energy and talent have earned them roles on a number of series, and they are regular contributors to the official Bruce Lee social media accounts.

Joining them is professional fighter, stunt performer and coach, Austin Liu. Austin is also one of the martial arts instructors for both the Camp Bruce Lee and Warrior Academy programs at the BLF, where he shares his passion for working with youth by bringing Bruce’s philosophies of personal growth and confidence to the next generation.

Join Shannon as they discuss how all three guests first found martial arts, how Bruce Lee’s legacy has influenced their journeys, and what it means to grow into your power—both physically and mentally. Hear directly from two youths as they drop some real gems about how their lives have been positively affected and enriched by training in martial arts.

This week on The Bruce Lee Podcast, Shannon welcomes actor, colleague and friend Rich Ting. You may know Rich from his work portraying Bolo on season 1 of Warrior but their connection goes back a lot further than that. Find out how Rich first met Shannon when he was just 13 years old and the journey he went on from athlete to earning two post graduate degrees to becoming an actor! Rich’s new show On Call for Amazon Prime debuted in January of this year, just as he wrapped an arc on Tulsa King Season 2 alongside Sylvester Stallone. Rich talks about the incredible work ethic he brings to everything he does, from his days playing football at Yale to his transition into acting.

A lifelong Bruce Lee fan, Rich also opens up about his journey—from almost quitting martial arts and how his mother’s tough love kept him on course to how that perseverance prepared him for the physically demanding and challenging life of an actor. Listen in as Shannon and Rich discuss resilience and how pushing through life’s challenges leads to growth and evolution in this inspiring, joyful and full-circle conversation between friends!
