Pod Stallions 116: Burger King Onion Ring Fireside Chat

Mantooth — Sun, 31 Dec 2023 23:54:12 +0000

We’re not ones to dwell on the passage of time (and let’s face it, no one wants that shock to the system) but it IS hard to believe that it’s now been 60 years since two schoolteachers went to that junkyard for the trip of a lifetime, and Doctor Who began. Luckily, according to the Doctor, time is immaterial. But let’s throw caution to the wind and have a jumbo-sized PS episode celebrating Adventures Through Time and Space. It’s safe to say DW is embraced and referenced more by us than any other topic, and it’s been a long, strange journey. Reverse the polarity, Sonics at the ready, Allons-y!

Pod Stallions 116: Burger King Onion Ring Fireside Chat

If we Letterboxed our viewing habits in 2023, we’re estimating between us we’ve spent close to one full month (maybe one with 28 days) watching everything from TV series to movies, highbrow to lowbrow and all points in between. We thought it’d be fun to wind 2023 down by recommending titles to the most discerning listeners in podcastville. So it’s another fine episode of ‘What We’ve Been Watching!’ on Pod Stallions. Hope it helps!

5 Awesome Things on eBay this week

Mantooth — Fri, 21 Jul 2023 02:59:09 +0000

Fisher Price Sesame Street Playhouse (eBay Link) –

I cannot tell you all the hours of fun I had with this thing as a kid and later with my kids. This set now rests in my storage unit, awaiting grandchildren (of which there is no rush). I love this toy like an old friend.

Gabriel Lassie and Timmy set (eBay Link) –

I’ve seen this set in catalogs but never like this. I guess the Lassie license only extends to the dog as it’s just “The Boy.” Gabriel made nice toys and while this would have appealed more to my sister than me, I admire it.

Kooky Patches (eBay Link)

I’m not 100 percent sure but I think these are just a rip-off of Topps Whacky Packs. As a kid, I always seemed to miss when these came out, and i’d get them in trades, but I did not know what they were called. I remember asking for “weird food cards” at my local “MAC’S MILK” and getting odd looks.

Starroid Raiders Zing action figure (eBay Link) –

These late-model Tomland Figures are kind of a tough find; the cards are my favourite because of a cameo by the Thunderbirds.

Playmobile Space Store Display (eBay Link) –

Despite me growing up half-German, Playmobil completely skipped me as a child. It’s like a car full of your friends zooming by you while waiting for a bus. Playmobil looked cool AF especially the space stuff. I had no idea Mattel ever carried it and well this is a store display which gives me other stirrings. I’m complicated.
