I'm joined by previous guests Phil and Mikey for a discussion of the 6th film in the Karate Kid franchise. We kick off with our non-spoiler thoughts and tell you whether we recommended it or not before getting in the details. We make comparisons to the films that came before it including Cobra Kai and also give our rankings.  Twitter: @CobraKaiPod / Instagram: @CobraKaiKompanion Email: [email protected] Cobra Kai Kompanion Website Merch store: ckkompanion.threadless.com The Kompanion Network Group

We finally reached the penultimate episode in the series and it sure goes out with a bang. We discussed Tory and Miguel's matches against Zara and Axel respectively and how the show wraps up Terry Silver and John Kreese's ends.

Olga joins the pod and really gives us insight on what it'd be like to be a fly on the wall in the writers' room and the process of breaking the final season. Olga also shares some ideas that had been kicked around that weren't used and what it was like filming the "Young Miyagi" scene.

In one of the heaviest episodes of the series, we talk about the acting clinic from the legacy actors, Miyagi Do decisions, and Kreese's "Apology Tour".

From "OG fan" to joining the writers' room for show's final season, Chris Rafferty shares his incredible journey with Cobra Kai. In what may be the most "inside baseball" interview on this pod, Chris sheds light on the table saw sequence in 604, challenges of writing 609, an early idea of the skeletons dream sequence in 613, and so much more!
