We had a helluva toy week, man news like crazy. I think the lead got buried, unfortunately. The price hikes. Yikes! We touch on it casually, but what’s your limit? How much are you willing to pay for 4 inches, 6, 7, 12 inches of plastic? A little less...

I had my first eye exam ever this week. It was eye-opening :), to say the least. I’ve always prided myself on having 20/20 vision, especially since every single person on both sides of my family has required glasses. Well a couple of months ago, looking at...

Another 3 hours plus. I am really growing to love these long shows. I think my only regret is not getting more time to just talk with the guys “off the record”. While I love talking toys, we have some amazing off-air discussions too. However, when the show...

I really needed yesterday. Yes, I said yesterday. I am actually getting this out the next day for what I think is the second time in 13 years. It had been a rough couple of weeks for multiple reasons. Especially when you have a family, sometimes you just need some...

One of the reasons I’ve been so busy was my uncle passed away a few months ago and I’ve been handling his estate. He’s estranged from the rest of the family and never married or had kids. He only had a couple of friends from years ago that he barely spoke with. So...

As I might have mentioned a few hundred times, I have been crazy busy. However, it’s about to slow down just in time for the holidays. Thank god. However, with the rest of my obligations, it’s still going to be crazy. Mrs. McFavorite starts a new job...

Time has been in short supply lately. That’s why I love moments like this. I’m sitting here with my daughter watching her first slasher movie. I guess not her first because she watched Fear Street on Netflix, without permission I might add. If you...
