Ko Chow (Chow Yun-Fat, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Hard Boiled) is about to resign from the police force when he is asked to take on one more case. He is to go undercover in a gang that is robbing jewelry stores. He accepts the task and successfully infiltrates the gang.

They got the Strokes. They got shrooms. They got a city on fire.

#WyattOleff and #ChaseSuiWonders join me to talk about the Apple TV+ series #CityOnFire—the chaos of 2003-era New York, what happens when you film psychedelic scenes in the East Village at 3 a.m., and how a #Radiohead song still makes Wyatt cry.
