Hola, Sneakers! Welcome to Episode 296 of the no awards-winning podcast Sneaky Dragon. This week on the show, Ian and Dave start with a surprising revelation; think there are too many episodes; ask, “Is it a dagger I see before me?”; find themselves in stitches; play the cancer card; discuss the films of Les Blank; consider fighting themselves; eat some licorice shoes; dream up the best scene ever; choose favourite silent film comedians; discuss an oddball Harold Lloyd film; start the search for the football movie director; fear untethering themselves from their lives; change over the course of their lives; agree relationships are tough; have a big announcement; remember bad animated movies; and, finally, airline travel…amirite?

Thanks for listening.

Please make our show better! We need your free content because ours stinks. Also, come and eat with us!

* Have some dinner with Ian and Dave, and, if you want, watch Sneaky Dragon being recorded. All you have to do is send us a little message that says, “I’d like to eat with you!” and Ian and Dave will treat you to an after-show meal at their favourite White Spot.

* Send us your story. That’s right. Just your story. If you need a prompt, Ian suggested “your secret origin” and Dave suggested “how how you found Sneaky Dragon” Please record a two to three minute story and send it to us via email ([email protected]) or our Facebook page. Or Skype Sneaky Dragon and leave a message on our voicemail. David will add a playlist for your story as well.

Once again, Blank’s The Maestro: King of the Cowboy Artists is not available on YouTube (and why should it be, quite frankly), but here is a little teaser:

Finally, here is the trailer for Blank’s Burden of Dreams:
