It was a last-minute call, but I am so glad we got a chance to do an official SDCC show. Man, what a con it was too. If you were still under any misconception that toys are for kids, this show should have proved that we are the target demographic for these toy...

I’ve seen it twice this week on our wee little family group on the Foosbook. Posts showing nearly 100% retro-style toy hauls. Some unreleased, some redeco homages, but all totally amazing. They definitely know how to hit us in the feels nowadays. Considering...

It was an actual Comic-Con for the first time in a long time. The displays were there. Well mostly. There was drama about exclusives. There were some amazing reveals. Then there’s the hate. Yup, it was all back. It felt amazing. I just love talking about this...

I never thought this day would happen. Of all the hosts we have had over the last 11 years. There have been many occasions where I was not able to record. I have always offered co-hosts the opportunity to run their own show. This even includes Mrs. McFavorite a couple...

So that yearly event that makes millions of people happy, sad, glad, mad, and almost every other emotion happened again. We, of course, talk about it and I mean TALK. Over 3 hours of all of those emotions rolled up into one beautiful episode for your listening holes....

Sorry it’s been almost a month. Especially considering this is our SDCC 2018 show, it seems like that was an eternity ago. However, I think it was worth the wait. It was really important for the whole crew to represent on what is still the biggest event for...

So this is a little bit of an experiment. I am writing this first part just before we head out to view the great total eclipse of 2017. There are so many expectations. We have been planning this for months. It’s our first full-on family trip with wife, daughter,...
