Hola, Sneakers! Welcome to another fine episode of Sneaky Dragon. Perhaps our finest since episode 156 – that was a doozy.
Just kidding! I can’t even remember that episode!
This week on the show, it’s all about: Sparks shirts-o-mania; IB problems; best bathrooms in Vancouver; Alexander Payne’s Downsizing; The Talented Mr. Ripley and Ripley’s Game and Philip Seymour Hoffman as an alpha jerk; cat issues in Trainspotting and Nine Months; Hugh Jackman sightings; the Overflowing Bathtub Problem; the most useless show host; Annihilation and A Field in England disagreements; self-righteous, self-justified piracy; the Netflix garbage dump; handcuff key pro tips; a touch of body dysmorphia; an awkward work situation; an awkward phone situation; Instagram rants; never-changing cool; Top 5 songs that could be used in a Sparks film soundtrack as requested by Nina Matsumoto (our own third Dragon); board game recommendations; big arms; metaphors for human life; Ghost Wars; and, finally, the trump card to end all trump cards.
This weeks Top 5 songs:
1) “Cats” by Barnes and Barnes from the 2000 compilation Yeah: The Best of Barnes and Barnes
2) “The Elements: Fire (Mrs. O’Leary’s Cow)” by The Beach Boys from the 1967 sessions for Smile!
2) “Catch Us If You Can” by The Dave Clark Five from the soundtrack to the 1965 film Catch Us If You Can
3) “I Need A Friend” by The Cowsills from the 1968 album We Can Fly
