Slide into your nostalgia zone and join Shakin Shaner and his wildly unpredictable feline co-host, Psycho Bob the Cat, as they karate-chop their way through the groovy legacy of Hong Kong Phooey. This Saturday morning cult classic may have only run for one season, but its kung-fu spoof, unforgettable theme song (sung by Scatman Crothers himself), and outrageous gadgets left a paw print on pop culture that still makes fans smile.

 

Special guest Matt Spectro, host of Matt Spectro Through the Multiverse, joins the Nerd Herd to reminisce, riff on trivia (Spot the cat was the real brains, folks!), and unravel why Phooey’s clumsy heroics still resonate with fans decades later. From funky theme song covers to comic book crossovers, this episode is a love letter to quirky Saturday morning glory. So crank up that theme song, grab your cereal, and dive into the absurd joy of Hong Kong Phooey—Number One Super Guy!
