A fresh take on the adventures of one of China’s oldest and most beloved heroes.  Before the Monkey King wrecked havoc in the heavens and before he guided the Holy Monk on his quest to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures, the Monkey King needed a weapon to reclaim his kingdom from the Demon King of confusion.  Listen to how the Monkey King got his famous, As You Will staff, Ruyi Jingu Bang, with the assistance of Li Yú, the secretary of Ao Guang, the dragon king of the East Sea.  Original script by Richmond Radioworks' own Rachel Phenis.
