The Manboys take to the mean streets of Blackcomb mountain, their favourite mountain in the world, to draw pictures of Babar and investigate some snowy features. The drama escalates when one of them (Jody) catches a cold. Then they head into the lands that lay behind, and discover a thing or two about going fast and jumping over cattle. This episode’s main themes are: Pachyderm Royalty and Beards.
If anyone cares, the Manboys are: Matt Belzile, Chris Rasman, Jody Wachniak, Robjn Taylor, Rusty Ockenden, and Mark Sollors. Shooting was performed almost entirely by Nate Laverty, but also by Tom and Kirk, who don’t even know each other, that’s how crazy this shit is.
