The Black Dog Video Newsletter: The Mask Edition!
(This post can also be viewed over at the new website – blackdogvideo.ca)
To celebrate the good news passed down this week (the easing of restrictions and so forth news) we’d like to offer our famous, locally sourced, Black Dog Masks for the low price of $9.99! It will be the last batch of this collector’s item so move fast! And don’t forget the other cool swag we’ve acquired – new shirts, mugs, pins and buttons.
There’s also a new podcast episode up and ready for your ears! Josie joins us for an affectionate look at Midnight Run starring the late Charles Grodin! Tune in for the Black Dog After Dark podcast! And there’s a new, pretty funny, video up in my long-running series, Films I Should Have Seen by Now at Blackdogvideo.ca.
