Sneaky Dragon

Hello, horse fans and hello, mystery fans, and hello, horse mystery fans!

On this week’s show, it’s all intimidation, cyber stalking, cyber bullying and illegal surveillance, and then things really get serious, like, attempted murder serious!

So join Lezah and a suitably outraged David as they discuss the frustrating case of a former Olympian undone by a crass bully!

We hope you enjoyed this week’s episode. Please comment about the show, and please like and subscribe on all your favourite podcast aggregators!

Enough with podcasts talking about something mild, it’s time to talk about Something Wild, the very-1986 film directed by Jonathan Demme before those lambs got so loud. (And, as a bonus, watching the movie will make a joke in Dumb And Dumber make sense.

A combination of Seagrams (or a reasonable facsimile) and Wild Cherry Life Savers is tried, and it goes over…not well.

They also come up with the tribute drink The Dine and Dash. Want to make it?

The producer’s wife thought this tasted like vanilla Windex but liked the aftertaste which reminded her of Coca Cola gummies.

If you make The Dine and Dash or make up one of your own, please send a picture to [email protected] by following this link! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you. Also let us know what you think of the show and if you have any suggestions for future films.

We received an email from listener Louise that we wanted to share with our listeners:

Dear Refresh My Memory. When I first saw Something Wild, I remembered admiring the screenplay for being so unpredictable. It really plays with the concepts of light and dark, truth and lies, and good and bad. This week’s podcast inspired me to make a drink that reflects the wild journey the movie takes you on. The alcohol tempts you to hide from your problems but then the caffeine serves as a wake-up call to face reality.

During the show, Dave couldn’t remember the name of a popular aria, the opera it comes from or the composer. Thanks God for laying in bed where he remember it’s the “Flower Duet” from Délibes’ Lakmé. If you’ve never heard it, it’s pretty amazing and well worth a listen (even if you find opera hard to get into).

ASK DAVE!

Hello, horse fans and hello, mystery fans, and hello, horse mystery fans!

On this week’s show, Lezah puts Dave on the spot in an episode we’re calling Ask Dave!

Lezah grills Dave on all things horsey in the Olympics: Is the rider just a passenger? When did the various equestrian disciplines become part of the Olympics? How has the equestrian competitions changed over the years? What rider and what country has won the most medals? And who can ride in the Olympics and what age do they have to be – both horse and rider.

How did Dave fare? Well, you’ll just have to listen.

What do you get when you combine the fun of roads with the comfort of houses? Road House! No, not the current version, this one has your daily requirements of Patrick Swayze.

Let’s join Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van for a throat rippingly fun time! Two of them are seeing it for the very first time, but don’t worry, they’re nice.

Until it’s time to not be nice.

They enjoy The Ultimate Bar Mix and a drink called The Dirty Dalton. Want to make it?

The gang also come up with their own tribute drink, the Throat Punch. How do you make it?

The producer’s wife said it tricks you into thinking it’s something nice, but then it turns into Buckley’s cough syrup. If you decide to drink a Colt 45 afterwards to get rid of the taste, that’d be fine.

If you make a Throat Punch or make up one of your own, please send a picture to [email protected] by following this link! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you. Also let us know what you think of the show and if you have any suggestions for future films.

Thanks for listening.

It’s ba-a-a-a-a-ck!

That’s right! Podmash! is back after a nine-year hiatus!

To celebrate Ian’s mumble-mumble birthday, we revived his brainchild Podmash! which takes three different podcasts and mashes them together into one show.

So join Refresh My Memory, Horse Mysteries and good old Sneaky Dragon in Ian’s backyard with friends, family, food and fun!

Sorry you couldn’t be there in person, but you can still enjoy the show.

Join Eric Fell, Jason Dedrick and Vicky Van for Refresh My Memory, as they take a look at Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves in Kathryn Bigelow’s Point Break, and create the Fifty-Year Storm cocktail. You can make it by mixing blue curaçao, champagne and Sprite, and adding a watermelon wedge as garnish. (According to the producer’s wife: “Pretty good.”)

Louise was kind enough to provide attendees with a delicious desert: the Meatball Sandwich SUBterfuge. She was also kind enough to provide us links to all the components of the yummy treat:

Buns: Èclair shells

Meatballs: Rice Krispie Truffles (using butterscotch chips instead of white chocolate)

Sauce: strawberry whipped cream

Thanks, Louise! You’re the best!

Louise’s sketch of aforementioned desert!

Next, join Lezah Williamson and Dave for Horse Mysteries. No grisly crime or medical mystery for this episode. Instead, they revive Horse Bits to discuss horse society, read a fictional whodunnit, and battle against technology with an online quiz that can only go one way – sideways!

Finally, Dave and Ian show up for a (very) mini-episode of Sneaky Dragon. They discuss doughnuts, Don Martin, getting older, and penises before being joined by the Third Dragon, Nina Matsumoto, and Bob Mackey to discuss podcasting, lightning striking, and relentless self-promotion.

Thanks for listening!
