This podcast has been fun, but I have decided to discontinue it for the time being. I'm still a big HTTYD fan.

Making each episode takes much more time than I realized, and this has really increased my respect for those to release podcast episodes every week or two. Also, I have received very little feedback (comments, likes on Facebook, etc.). This despite the fact that Spreaker says I have 1307 downloads as of now. Either those statistics are wrong, most of the downloads are bots, or I am much more popular than I realize.

If you are listening to this and want me to continue, please send me an e-mail at [email protected], leave a comment on the website (https://smidvargandthegang.video.blog/), or on the Facebook page.

My domain registration smidvargandthegang.com will expire on Aug. 24. The website will remain active, but only at https://smidvargandthegang.video.blog/ The episodes will continue to be hosted on Spreaker until Nov. 30.

Thank you everone for listening so far, and thanks for being part of the gang.

Stoick brings his fists to a dragon fight and wins, which is just as awesome as it sounds!

Hiccup takes him on a sunset flight around Berk, accompanied by "Romantic Flight," which is at least as awkward as it sounds!

In which I go on for so long that I wonder aloud if Hiccup and Astrid are aliens...

In which we learn that Hookfang is a better physicist than Hiccup…

The riders take trust falling to extremes and teach us something about the physics of falling (and landing).

The resident curmudgeon (Mildew) tries again to rid Berk of dragons after they are accused of boot theft, vandalism, and blowing up the armory; in the process, he becomes a much more formidable villain.

Hiccup tries defending the dragons with a DUMB solution.

Gobber tries his hand at being a cobbler (our word of the day).

The writers try their first two-part episode of the series, but forget to tell the title.

Is Hiccup's first girlfriend a dragon? Was Gobber's? The riders are excited to discover their first new dragon species; Hiccup's hypocrisy nealy gets them all incinerated; and we continue to explore what it means to be a man in a world full of dragons.

The yaks have stopped giving milk! The chickens have stopped laying! A blizzard is coming. Sheep are acting like the Three Stooges. Integrating dragons with a society that has been at war with them for 300 years is difficult; in this episode, we see the problems that arise when the “big scaly lizards” try to live alongside the farm animals they have stolen for centuries.Sources: Facebook page
