Dragon Academy Dropouts

Oh, you wanna start something? How about starting this brand new episode of Dragon Academy Dropouts? Our hosts discuss the biggest feuds of the How To Train Your Dragon franchise.

The Dropouts are back! We begin Season 2 with a discussion of exciting updates about the show, what's to come in 2018, and recent franchise news. Max (in his own Hiccup-y way) brainstorms baby names.

What animated short would we produce? What's the first question we would ask Dean DeBlois? How did each of us become fans of the Dragons franchise? This week our hosts answer these questions (and many more) submitted by our lovely listeners!

The time has come to discuss the underrated gem that is Legend of the BoneKnapper Dragon. The Dropouts discuss lessons learned, nostalgia, and conspiracy theories inspired by the short film. [Content warning: discussions of dragon mating rituals]

Fact: Women are amazing. This week Sara and Caitlin discuss the awesome female (human) friendships of the franchise.

It's a week of fandom crossover at Dragon Academy Dropouts as we sort some of our favorite characters into the four Hogwarts Houses.

The Dropouts try to get inside the minds of the fans by guessing which episodes of Race to the Edge viewers ranked as the best and worst. Also, our hosts respond to T-mail and acknowledge an error most fowl.

How To Train Your Dragon received only 4 "rotten" reviews from film critics when it was released in 2010. This week Sara and Max read these reviews to discover what the fuss was all about and remind themselves just how subjective art can be. [Warning: intense shade.]

Our hosts debate which original character from the DreamWorks Dragons TV series stands above the rest.

With surprise villains, punching snakes, and questionable shopping choices, there is a lot to talk about in this special extended episode. Our hosts share their thoughts and favorite moments from Race to the Edge Season 5!
