The Holy Rosary | The Baptism of the Lord
Jan 10, 2026Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland begins the Luminous Mysteries of the Rosary with the Baptism of the Lord. When Jesus steps into the waters of the Jordan, He reveals His mission, sanctifies the waters of Baptism, and shows us the path every dragon slayer must walk. Through this mystery, we remember that we have been claimed, named, and sent — called to leave the old life behind and rise as children of the Light, ready to face the dragons alongside Christ.
Stay faithful… and slay dragons with the waters of Baptism!

Duration: 00:09:38Dragons in the Car | The Snowy Drive
Jan 03, 2026Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland kicks off the new year on the Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus with a Dragons Around the House adventure — this time, in the car. Dragons in the Car! When snow, traffic, and restless squires turn a simple drive into a dragon-filled battleground, the dragons of pride, wrath, envy, and sloth begin to stir. But by calling on the Holy Name of Jesus and using the tools of faith, a stressful situation becomes a moment of peace, joy, and unexpected evangelization.
Stay prayerful… and slay the Dragons in the...
Duration: 00:11:07Little Dragon Slayers
Dec 20, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland reflects on what it truly means to follow Jesus by becoming like a child. As we prepare for Christmas, he reminds us that dragon slaying is not about strength or age, but about faith, imagination, joy, humility, and trust in God. Through stories, gratitude, and the new Christmas song Little Dragon Slayers, we are invited to rediscover the childlike wonder that helps us face, fight, and defeat the dragons in our own hearts.
Stay childlike… and slay dragons with joy!

The Light of the World
Dec 13, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland celebrates the feast of St. Lucy — a radiant day of light, joy, and hope — as he reflects on how Christ, the Light of the World, pierces every darkness. Through St. Lucy, Lady Lumena, his grandfather Rolland, and his own wedding anniversary, he reminds us that God fills even the darkest seasons with grace. This week’s Advent challenge is to rediscover true JOY: Jesus first, Others second, and Yourself last. And with the new Christmas song Silent Knight, we meditate on how Jesus enters the world quietly… yet comes ready for battle...
Duration: 00:10:24dragons around the house | The Heartbreaking Loss
Dec 06, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland shares a Dragons Around the House story about one of the biggest peace-stealers of Advent: winning and losing. When a favorite hockey team suffers a crushing defeat, the Blue Dragon of Wrath, the Orange Dragon of Envy, and even the Indigo Dragon of Gluttony all try to take over. But sports are meant to shape virtue — not steal our joy. With humility, gratitude, and good sportsmanship, we can keep our peace and remember that our worth comes from God, not the scoreboard.
Stay peaceful… and slay the Blue Dragon...
Duration: 00:09:08The 7 Dragons of Advent
Nov 29, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland kicks off the Advent season by revealing The 7 Dragons of Advent—the deadly foes who try to distract, deceive, and divide us as we prepare for the coming of Christ. From pride to lust, each dragon works overtime to ruin this sacred season, but Advent’s virtues of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love give us the weapons we need to fight back.
Stay hopeful… and slay the Seven Dragons of Advent!

Nov 22, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland guides us through the Fifth Joyful Mystery — The Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple. After three days of searching, Mary and Joseph find Jesus teaching in His Father’s house. Their steadfast love and trust remind us that when we feel lost, afraid, or unsure, God is always drawing us closer to Him. Like them, we learn to seek Jesus with courage and confidence, slaying the Blue Dragon of Fear with faithful hearts.
Stay courageous… and slay the Blue Dragon of Wrath!

Duration: 00:11:22The Holy Rosary | The Presentation
Nov 15, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland continues the Rosary series with the Fourth Joyful Mystery — The Presentation in the Temple. When Mary and Joseph humbly offer the Child Jesus to God, they show us how obedience and sacrifice slay pride, greed, and lust. With every act of trust, we become more like them — offering our hearts to the King and carrying His light into the world.
Stay faithful… and slay the Red Dragon of Pride!

When we choose humility, peace, and quiet strength, we help the True Knight drive out the dragons of pride, greed, and wrath.

Oct 04, 2025Greetings, young slayers!

Sep 13, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland warns us about the Green Dragon of Greed through a birthday wish list gone wrong. From wanting castles and candy mountains to learning how to share gifts and even give them away, we see how greed feeds the dragon—but generosity slays him for good. True treasure isn’t hoarded; it’s shared with joy, just as St. Nicholas and St. Francis remind us. Stay generous… and slay the Green Dragon of Greed!

Duration: 00:09:26Dragons in the Parables | Pride Goes Before a Fall
Aug 23, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland warns us about the danger of pride through the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector in Luke 18. Pride always leads to a fall—just as it did for Satan, Adam and Eve, and so many of us when we start boasting and comparing ourselves to others. With stories of St. Rose of Lima’s humility, and even a lesson learned the hard way on a wiffle ball field, we’re reminded that bragging only feeds the Red Dragon. The only true victory comes when we give the glory back to...
Duration: 00:10:15Ever Ancient, Ever New
Aug 16, 2025Greetings, young slayers! Today we reflect on the words of St. Augustine—“Ever ancient, ever new.” Like St. Augustine, we’ve all been tempted to worship the gifts instead of the Giver. God’s creation—music, art, stories—is meant to draw us closer to Him, not pull us away. The dragons want us distracted, but the saints remind us that every good gift points back to its source: God Himself.
This week, I challenge you to look at what you watch, read, and listen to. Do they inspire you to grow in virtue… or lure you toward...
Duration: 00:10:21Dragons in the Parables | Be Prepared
Aug 09, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland learns the hard way what happens when you’re not ready for the Master’s return. Through the parable in Luke 12, Jesus reminds us to stay vigilant, faithful, and dragon-slaying—whether He comes early, late, or when we least expect it. Slaying sloth, wrath, greed, and gluttony takes daily effort… and it all starts now, not later.
Stay awake… and slay dragons before the Master returns!

Aug 02, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland discovers that the Our Father isn’t just a prayer—it’s a battle plan. Each line strikes down a deadly dragon: pride, envy, sloth, and more. This ancient prayer, given by Jesus Himself, arms us with everything we need to fight the battle within.

Duration: 00:09:56dragons around the house | The Clogged Toilet
Jul 26, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland faces The Clogged Toilet—a true test of courage, humility, and honesty. When disaster strikes the bathroom, only those who resist pride, sloth, and deceit can claim dragon slayer status. The lesson? Don’t flush in panic or blame your brother—face the mess, ask for help, and maybe even learn how plumbing works. Slay dragons… even the stinky ones!

Jul 19, 2025Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland explores The Parable of the Sheep and the Goats, where the true dragon slayers are those who show mercy.
