Gandalf is back! And this time he's brought stoner fantasy director Ralph Bakshi with him!

Whatever comes of it all, Caitlin and Ira are always happy to talk wizards and magic.

Episode 15: Flight of Dragons

EPISODE SUMMARY

Caitlin and Ira enter the war between magic and science with The Flight of Dragons.

EPISODE NOTES

The skies are filled with scaly and gassy dirigibles in the Rank and Bass medieval fantasy flick, The Flight of Dragons. This is a story born from the union of two completely unrelated 1970s fantasy books and the result is as odd as you might image. Plus, Caitlin and Ira finally get to lecture each on dragonology. Hang on tight because ultimate war between magic and science is about to begin!
