Question: spanish dialogue recommendations

Oh, the drama!! Recommend me diálogos en español, please. I'm interested in easy, two-person, not-so-long (~3 minutes out loud) non-risqué dialogues. Preferably, they were originally written in Spanish, and have some emotion in them. Realistically, I should be able to find them online, because I have no access to Spanish language books. (Spanish-language resources are ok to recommend; it needs to be easy for the person learning from me.)

I've downloaded them and listened a bit, despite the horrifying websites. Not bad.

I think SpanishPod does a great job.

LoMásTV might be useful, too.

BBC Languages has a Spanish section with several short videos that might help.

I can't recommend any drama specifically that you can find online (though look for dover thift or cheap edition of a golden age/classic spanish drama on amazon). For online materials you will find the most poetry & news interviews.

Poetry you can even find clips with the original voice of the poet. Mario Bendetti reading his poems. Example of an interview in a Spanish magazine with dialogue and a transcript.
