In Episode Eight of the Podcast, Patrick chats with returning guest, author, silent film historian and co-host of the Silent Comedy Watch Parties on YouTube, Steve Massa. Along with the discussion of today’s film in focus, ‘Sugar Daddies’ (1927), the first short released under Hal Roach’s new distribution deal with MGM, the conversation also includes some contextual information concerning the likes of Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd too. Steve first appeared on the Podcast back in Episode Two, so this time Patrick has the chance to ask him the now infamous ‘Atoll question’!

In addition to the interview with Steve Massa, there are also audio messages from members of the Blog-Heads - (The Laurel & Hardy Podcast community online), Christopher Jaunsen and Graham Wale, sharing their thoughts with us on ‘Sugar Daddies’.
