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!
