Hola, Sneakers, and welcome to the official sixth anniversary of Sneaky Dragon. Yes, it was six years ago that Ian and Dave gathered around a single, not-very-good microphone (because the dynamic mics that Dave brought didn’t work very well with our new midi interface) and recorded our first episode. It was a rough and bumpy ride, but we’ve smoothed out the experience over the years and we now like to call our shows “mostly painless”.

Speaking of mostly painless, this week on the show Ian and Dave tell us about our new spin-off podcast – Sneaky Dragon Listening Party – co-hosted by Dave and his daughter Mary – it’s a music podcast that goes back through the mixtapes Dave made for listeners starting three years ago; they celebrate an awkward anniversary; deal some Happy Days trivia; give out true facts about Bob Einstein; lose their sense of humour; remember Real People; do some bad vamping; remember That’s Incredible; reveal the secret history of 1968; besmirch acid gurus; sympathies for the swastika; Sabrina feelings; draw lots; uses for the I Ching; shame Dave; pitch Edgar Allen Poe, paranormal cowboy investigator; defend Mark Twain; never say never say never again; and, finally, Laurel Robertson’s Top 10 movies:

* The Darjeeling Limited

* The Spanish Prisoner

* The Sixth Sense

* O, Brother, Where Art Thou?

* The Prestige

* Alien

* Monty Python and the Holy Grail

* The Drop

* Gone Fishing

* A Hard Day’s Night

Thanks for listening.

This didn’t come up during the show, but here is a great, inept interview with a game Bob Einstein done for a local radio station:
