This episode answers questions submitted by my followers on Instagram. The main focus are the rules of conduct that are in the Ving Tsun Athletic Association in Hong Kong, supposedly endorsed by the late Grandmaster Yip Man. The rest of the episode is a nice mixed bag of questions.

This is a follow-up to my recent episode on the controversial claims by William Cheung. Although the video was well-received by most (including a number of practitioners from Cheung’s own lineage), many seemed to miss the mark on the purpose. My issues were on the veracity of Cheung’s claims which have little to no evidence despite the sheer magnitude of his claims. If his claims were true, then we would expect much more evidence to support it, especially in the light of the internet and access we have to information about lineages in Mainland China.. My video was not a slight on Cheung’s relationship with Yip Man or Bruce Lee as some attempted to strawman it into.

This is the third episode on the topic of a YouTuber who goes by the phony name of Bernard “Beerdy” McAlister. “Beerdy” has built a large following of idiot casuals who couldn’t tell a real Bruce Lee fact apart from a Bugs Bunny storyline. “Beerdy’s” bizarrely popular channel uses a peculiar mix of clickbait titles combined with idiot-cringe level fake Bruce Lee stories. Unfortunately, scores of viewers who lack critical thinking skills (or the ability to do a simple Google search) somehow think that an anonymous YouTuber with phony MMA credentials has access to information and videos that the rest of the world does not. The scope of his channel makes me feel that it is worthy to fight such massive disinformation. In this episode, I tackle a few of “Beerdy’s” recent videos which have taken a departure from his old style. He now seems to be posting more footage from mostly unrelated interviews in what seems to be the lazy phase of this fraudulent confidence trickster. This time I bring some friends to share the pain of Beerdy’s latest cringebait.
Enjoy the cringe that is the number one Bruce Lee channel on YouTube!

This episode tackles the Gene LeBell/Bruce Lee “controversy” as recently discussed by the YouTube channels of Goldenbell Training and Stripey Rambles. Goldenbell and Stripey Rambles are two highly recommended channels on the topic of Bruce Lee. The both provide insightful and well-researched information.

The Kung Fu Genius
Dubbed the "Kung Fu Genius" by his peers, Sifu Alex Richter is one of the most high-profile Wing Tsun (wing chun) instructors teaching in North America today. Alex has been studying martial arts since the age of eight, and by the age of fifteen he already earned a black belt in Taekwondo. During his late teen years he began training in wing chun, grappling, and other kung fu systems. By age twenty, Alex started training in Sifu Leung Ting's brand of Wing Chun know as Wing Tsun (WT). This art would become his life's passion.
Although Sifu Alex considers himself a Kung Fu Nerd, he is a huge fan of mixed martial arts, BJJ, and boxing. This gives him a unique perspective among his Chinese martial arts peers. Sifu Alex Richter is based out of New York City.
