Muay Thai Bones grew out of the discussions that Kevin and I have, all the time, about all things Muay Thai. It’s endless. Usually we’re driving across Thailand, returning from a fight (as that’s generally when we travel) and we have hours upon hours in the car. This episode is in the midst of the Covid-19 shutdowns all over the world, so we’re sitting on the balcony of our rented room in Chiang Mai. Different setting, but still almost 3 hours of discussion. I rather enjoyed this way of doing it because Kevin and I can actually look at each other (without risking crashing the car, for example), which is how we talk about things when we’re not filming it. It also was filmed as night fell, so you can watch the light change as you would if you were sitting here with us. Feel the heat of the air, like long dinner conversations with friends. I really like it.
