And Little Richard on getting caught up with drugs and sleeping around.

Bruce died broke ,would have been a major disaster for the Lee family back in 73. I assume his money management was very poor. This is how mr chow must have taken an advantage of the situation.

Next time you come to Dublin , let me know 🇮🇪

Wow I am so happy to have discovered this channel. I read unsettled matters , years ago. It was disturbing to have the myth destroyed , to some degree; but I knew I was getting the truth. And that has been proven ; eg the stories about Bob Baker and the low box office receipts of way of the dragon

The worse thing that happened to martial arts was a chair, headphones and hours of talking while sitting down; instead of training. It’s ironic, fanatics who never met Bruce Lee, go about it like they broke bread with the man and watch him pee. And paradoxical, that their algorithm thrives on “talking about Bruce Lee” for two to three hours. You know how many punch and kicks you can reps you can log in 3 hours

You handled that with class Tom, whilst the same cannot be said for this Alex KFG guy. The fact he actually tried to get you on his channel then turned against you, speaks volumes! You should know that Alex comes from the Leung Ting lineage of Wing Tsun but is regarded as a very incompetent joke that tries hard to promote himself. At EWTO headquarters in Heidelberg, Instructors and students often play videos of Alex Richter doing Wing Tsun for the comedic value as he is so physically incompetent. When he left Leung Ting's organization he did not know the full system, so I have no idea where he is meant to have learned the rest of the system from or if he picked it up from books and videos. Alex Richter is a very poor fighter too, however to be fair he has never claimed to be otherwise or put himself up there with tough fighters in the Wing Tsun lineage, Mr Bean would beat Alex in a no rules fight. Whilst you actually met and knew Bruce Lee, Alex obviously never did but unbelievably he seeks to criticize you and considers himself an authority on all things Bruce Lee. The way Alex tries to dissect your book is laughable because you could do that with any such book e.g. Bruce Lee died and the official verdict was given but any biographical author is then going to give surrounding circumstances and their views. The fact is your book told it all first, and was the first to show the real Bruce Lee warts and all, whilst these RUclipsrs like Alex are completely irrelevant!

You've got to wonder about someone who is content to name himself 'Kung Fu Genius'. I was hostile to your book when I first read the book UM, it shed light into darker corners of Bruce's life which did something most other bio's didn't and that is show he was human. He had flaws. Additionally, your closeness over the decades with Bruce's network meant you had time to hear so many different views and like all of us, speculate. It's seldom (if ever) that an author writes the ultimate biography but the more biographies you see, the more rounded the perspective becomes. Unlike many biographies, yours doesn't try and create that ultimate biography, it gives the reader a change to ponder questions most leave untold. You are a quality writer Tom and I enjoyed UM and your superb bio of Benny Urquidez. Ignore parasites like Reichter who seek their fame on the back of the amount of hours spent writing Unsettled Matters etc not to mention the considerable expense incurred. It's easier to knock someone who had put those miles in than to do it yourself. Keep it going.

I see you deleted my comment? What are you affraid of? Weird a Trumpian has to censor so much....

Tom your a good man I’ve enjoyed all your videos on Bruce because you knew him his family friends in your book which I’ve read several times over the years mentioned the bob baker situation you was right about it for someone who wasn’t even BORN when Bruce walked the earth to constantly say he knows more about Bruce than people who knew him shows ignorance

Yo vi ese video de ese tipo y me parecio extraño lo que decia de usted.saludos👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

Imagine MGM made a picture with Elvis and Bruce Lee. Elvis playing a drug agent Bruce Lee playing some gang leader dealing drugs and weapons And when Agent Elvis finally tracks him down and meets up with him they get into this iconic battle like Chuck and Bruce did. That would have made cinematic history. I wonder who they would have chosen to win the legendary fight.

Excellent book! I read it in one sitting and I've re-read it, at least a dozen times! I still have three copies of the original first release! Great job!

No need to defend yourself against no nothing scrubs. These are Bruce Lee fans with, at most, book knowledge. I had to unsub from KFG because he's just so damn annoying. Keep up the great work Tom. We know who conveys the truth about Bruce. 🙏

Glad to see you’re doing well Mr. Bleecker. Bruce is an idol of mine.

Ooops. You meant Bleeker is the a hole.

Hi Tom, Bruce, for me personally, inspired me and still does, despite his flaws. Enjoy your videos. Deepest sympathy for Amy. Never realised she passed. She came across as a real nice lady. Warmest wishes! Tony 👍👍🇬🇧

Amy Sanbo isn't dead is she?

Mr Bleeker, do you think Bruce died in his sleep like Betty said or do you think he was doing drugs with her and had an episode like on May 10 and died?

Just ignore the Trump haters. We Maga worshippers love our adjudicated Rapist , insurrectionist, convicted criminal President.

I bet he's really upset now that Trump won. Lol

Thank you for posting your views & counterpoints...Bruce Lee was a great human being with flaws like anyone else...One can learn continued inspirational Self Defense & Acting Success Lessons from his life...as well as, extremely cautionary lessons from the circumstances surrounding... where he was... and with whom when he died...May God rest Bruce Lee in peace...And to you Tom Bleecker...Best wishes on continued health, happiness, & success...Peace...😊

Who cares what Bruce did in his personal life he was a true inspiration😮

Much respect Mr. Bleecker!

Glad to know you are a MAGA supporter...I was surprised since you come from the SoCal, showbiz world of ultra liberals. So glad you have the insights to rise above the Hollywood crowd and support Trump!! God bless America 🎉

That's sad. I am subscribed to both your RUclips channels. Anyways, did Bruce Lee (李小龙) look into Christianity? I know he said in an interview a couple or years before his death he implied he didn't believe in God but heard from two sources he was seeking the lord or had some interest about the time he died. He was such a seeker of truth and wisdom that I think he probably did...

I also fought in certain martial arts clubs in 1974,75,76, and even I haven't got any photos to back my claims only who can back me up are the guys who were there and witnessed the fights I had who are I'm fortunate to say are still around today, there are millions of people in this world who went through what we went through and haven't got any evidence doesn't mean it never happened. Keep strong Mr Bleeker.

Hey Tom. Here is some evidence for the Bob Cook-Larry Hartsell comment: "I carried my shoes and walked across the mats barefoot, noting a new hole in the plaster wall where Bob Cook had kicked Larry Hartsell dangerously close to the plate glass mirrors." I found this in the Introduction to Unsettled Matters. This was before Bruce Lee had developed JKD, though.

Just listening to the comments about photos. My Dad was an enthusiastic photographer in the 60s so he had lots of photos but a lot of other folk come to me for pics of their own parents as they werent . he doesnt even have a pic of his own mother who passed away in the 50s so i totally get that point .

I am a big fan of Bruce but probably before a movie Bruce took steroids as many actors do. The change was formidable, extremely low fat percentage and tremendous lats. But that doesn't detract one bit from his value. Tremendous world class athlete and ahead of his time.

great to see you tom! that AR guy is not a gentleman. people like him, are best left with out responding to, in my life experience. however, i completely agree with your response and wish you well out there. cheers to you, SIR, love from italy, robert

Hi Mr Bleeker, I hope you're doing well, I'm glad you responded to that guy called Kung Fu Genius,I was so shocked the way he portrayed you and made insults about you, First of all I want to make it clear that the only Truth about Bruce Lee came out of 2 People was Yourself with Unsettled Matters and Mathew Polly's book. Over the years many authors have written their versions of Bruce Lee's biography I read few including John Little and I found most of these guys painted a Goody, Goody picture of Bruce Lee, just like Bruce Lee's worshippers, the greatest thing on earth is having to face the truth and what you did in your wonderful book is excellent and totally told the truth, when we are young and we see a Kung Fu film for the very first time it's fantastic, in the early seventies around 1973 and 1974 Kung Fu the series with David Carradine hit our TV Screens and then about the same time Kung Fu films hit our cinemas, we never seen anything like that before and we used to play fight just like our new found heros , when we get older we get wiser it's then you realise Fantasy and reality, then as the years started flying to now it's now I realise about all this hype, but to certain people Bruce Lee is unbeatable and could have beaten anyone even now, I think Bruce Lee would have been still around to this day if he didn't insult other people, being cocky and arrogant and being a Drugie. I look up to other martial artists like Chuck Norris, Benny The Jet , Don The Dragon plus quite a few other decent legends, never heard anything negative about these martial artists over the last so many decades, for me they are my role models , I've got all your podcasts and other videos of your topics and please carry on with the fantastic stuff you're doing, unfortunately this is the world we're living in where we will get some Haters etc , Godbless and take care Mr Bleeker.

Agreed fully. I too had got into an argument with the "Kung Fu genius" a few months ago. It was regarding YOU. On his channel, I had commented that your book "Unsettled Matters" had revealed everything about Bruce Lee's drug abuse decades before the discovery of the so-called "Bruce Lee drug letters" between Bruce Lee and Bob Baker. He started arguing with me saying the same things you mentioned here; you didn't know the difference between Cortisone and anabolic steroids etcetera etcetera! He finally said that it was time to ignore me as I wasn't accepting his version. I retorted that it was time to UNSUBSCRIBE from his pathetic little channel and I did that! 👍

So, everyone has their own opinion and the right to debate and defend themselves. But Alex Richter has nothing to do with the crook Beerdy or anything close to it. His podcast is full of information and most of it concerns win chung. He gave his opinion on your book M.Bleeker and many share the same opinion on the information you relate. Of course, nothing can be taken as truth if it is not factual and that is where the problem with your story lies. We may or may not like Alex's way of criticizing your book...but it has nothing to do with your endorsement of Trump...besides, we don't care. It remains your word vs the facts...and the burden of proof is on you.

A question for you mr. Bleecker how many copies of um have you sold to date.

Is Alex a Trump hater, well i like Trump and im not Even american im from Danmark, anyway i read your book 25 years ago and found it very interresting it was a real page turner, i enjoyed it but it also made me sad in places, it really stood out from other books.thank you

Mr. Bleecker your a gentleman and handled everything well. Much respect 👍

The TDS is concerning.

Chief of defectives? I think that is also known as Super Sleuth you get that when you catch Carmen.

why don't you go on the Kung-Fu Genius podcast. Not taking sides but The Kung-Fu Genius does makes a lot of good points about your book.

Mr. Bleecker, I’ve watched all your videos. I enjoy all your wisdom and knowledge that you share with us. You’re a class act! I’m glad you never went on that clown’s show. He is nothing but a provocateur for clicks.

Mr. Bleecker, you have no idea, how much, I enjoy your videos...I support you 💯🙏👍✌️

"When Tom Bleecker speaks everybody listen"

Who cares what Richter has to say he's meaningless. Unsettled Matters is a great, in depth highy interesting insight/essay into Bruce's life. Miss your videos and posts.

Hello Tom, I think there is the wrong impression here Alex Richter is a great guy and wing Chun instructor. He nor I look at Bruce as a " God" there is only one God and he art in heaven. Alex & myself admire Bruce and his works & teaching's as a martial artist and that's it ,he just like the facts he also de- bunks people like 'Breedy" he dont make money from you tube videos. So we and some other are not fan boys or fan girls. Alex just wants the facts and the proof there of. There is too much mis- information on Bruce as it is.

Well done Tom Bleecker, you came across as classy and honest and I am glad you covered all bases, I enjoy KFG channels videos talking about the marital arts world generally and the guests but I didn't like the way he portrayed you and calling you a liar and your book BS which I think over stepped the mark. I believe everyone is entitled to their opinions but not when it's being slanderous without any evidence on their part what they are saying has any elements of truth. It should have been done in a more respectful way rather than trying to make you look bad. All the best Tom from England 🇬🇧

Scotland support s you tom

Had a bad experience with the kung fu genius commenting on his channel, I said wing chun wouldn’t work in a real fight situation all I got was name calling and childish comments, he deleted his comments to cover his tracks,he does go on like a child.bruce didn’t have a photo with a lot of his friends 2 with Steve McQueen none with Leo fong who sparred with him A lot.i don’t think he even had a picture with Roman Polanski.i have the first edition of unsettled matters only thing I don’t like about it ,it’s not a signed copy !

Dear Mr. Bleecker! Nice to see you alive, well and good spirited. Glory to God yea!?! Time flys

Dear Mr. Bleecker, what an absolute joy it is to watch your videos and hear you speak and recount memories. You are, i have to say, one of the most naturally gifted storytellers i have ever come across. The way you are able to hold my attention and keep the suspense going while just speaking casually is quite remarkable. I have watched ur videos multiple times but this is my first time commenting. Thank u very much for all that u do! 🙏🏽
