                                            <![CDATA[SURPRISE! Adam started his own podcast, and it has joined the AUX family. It's called Scrambled Transmissions, and it's about anthology television shows (Twilight Zone, Black Mirror, Perversions of Science, etc). You can listen to it wherever fine podcasts are found.


We've decided to drop a sample episode in this feed in which Adam has Blake on as a guest, and they talk about the very first Tales from the Crypt episode, "The Man Who Was Death." They also discuss vigilantism and some other deep shit. Also, some parts are funny!


Shelf Life will be back next time with your regularly scheduled(?) programming.

                                            <![CDATA[You fans can stick it, brother! In our first episode of 2020, we're finishing up Season 3 of Netflix's The Toys That Made Us by discussing their episode about wrestling toys (as well as many, many other tangents). We couldn't do it without wrestling afficionado TOM G. WOLF -- our first international guest, Skyped in from Sydney, Australia! Throughout this extra-macho episode we make sure to hit on: Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Hulk Hogan: Supernanny, Baddie Hulk, wrestlers on Baywatch, Crazy Vince McMahon, Bayley and Heel Bayley, as well as kayfabe and other wrestling terminology. The laundry list of wrestling and toy companies discussed includes: WWF, WCW, WWE, Mattel, Hasbro, Jakks Pacific, Galoob, LJN, Ringside Collectibles, and more.


Other toys discussed: NECA TMNT and predator. Mondo/Mondoids/Fallout/Iron Giant. McFarlane DC Multiverse (specifically Batman). Marvel Legends. MEGO (Nosferatu and other horror).


Thanks to Tom G. Wolf and also thanks More Of That (and Bayley) for our theme music.


Special thanks to Netflix and The Toys That Made Us, Nacelle, and Brian Volk-Weiss.]]>

                                            <![CDATA[Merry Toymas! (Shelfmas is also acceptable). This year we spend the holiday discussing more of our favorite show, The Toys That Made Us (on Netflix). For the price of one podcast you get TWO TTMU episodes and TWO actual child guests! That's right, Adam's boys Izaak and Landen are joining us because we needed a children's perspective on POWER RANGERS and MY LITTLE PONY. The boys waste no time in roasting their Dad (like he was some chestnuts on an open fire) and discussing Christmas cheer in dollar amounts. Who will spend the most and win their love? Listen and find out. We all talk about the Power Rangers of Toymases past and hammer out the official cult rules of Toymas. 

Additional bullet points:

-Landen spills the tea

-Anti-Escalation Rangers

-Bandai's very good sidewalk chalk

-Me and the boys at 3am comin out the crayon box

-Bronies

-Little Girls Aren't Like YOU

-CHARMKINS (my god we spend soooo much time discussing Charmkins, we even re-tool the jingle)

-Equestria Girls

-Feed the Beast

-If male seahorses give birth, and there are no male sea ponies, how is new seapony made&gt;?&gt;???

-Horse penis!

Special Christmas theme music by Josh Head, Matt Taylor, Blake Walker, and Logan Williams AKA moreofthat.bandcamp.com

(By PLAYMATES). We also introduce a new, permanent host to the show: Blake's Soundboard. Also, Josh is here again.

Head to the sewers with us and discuss the Toiletest Humor. Bring down the house with our piping hot Eugene Levy clips. Why is April O'Neil so dumb looking? Why does Blake cackle himself hoarse in this one? Really, you can hear it, so sorry about that.

You know we're gonna talk #toiletgate AND #puppetgate. Josh will Ninja Rap his ass off.

Also: Nostalgia vs original IP, Adam's NECA TMNT Target quest for Bebop and Rocksteady, Parasite (the movie), Ace Duck, NECA Ambassadors, NO TURTLE ON THE SHELF.

Intro music PARODY by Blake Walker. Outro music: "Turtle Power" by Partners in Kryme (which is infinitely superior to Ninja Rap).

Then Adam tells us about his Chicago trip AKA bright lights, Big Walgreens. There he discovers the most amazing Groot/Wolverine mashup action figure, but forget it Jake, it's a Chinatown Knockoff.
It's also McDonald's 40th and you know what that means: insane half-articulated Power Rangers toys. PATHETIC.
The big to-do in this ep is Blake's early birthday present, Mezco's One:12 Collective Sovereign Knight Batman. Boy is this guy a trip. But what dark secret do his pants hide? Listen to find out!
Also: Mondo exclusives, Marvel Legends Emma Frost, Bye-Bye to Da Grunt, and BLAKE FINALLY FINISHED HIS CUSTOM CATWOMAN! Kustomizer's Korner ahoy!

Then Adam tells us about his Chicago trip AKA bright lights, Big Walgreens. There he discovers the most amazing Groot/Wolverine mashup action figure, but forget it Jake, it's a Chinatown Knockoff.
It's also McDonald's 40th and you know what that means: insane half-articulated Power Rangers toys. PATHETIC.
The big to-do in this ep is Blake's early birthday present, Mezco's One:12 Collective Sovereign Knight Batman. Boy is this guy a trip. But what dark secret do his pants hide? Listen to find out!
Also: Mondo exclusives, Marvel Legends Emma Frost, Bye-Bye to Da Grunt, and BLAKE FINALLY FINISHED HIS CUSTOM CATWOMAN! Kustomizer's Korner ahoy!

And what's up with gun accessories these days, huh? Ryan's World and other youtube trash toy tie-ins discussed also. You'll heal plenty of whisky-jangling sound effects from Blake as he discovers an Old Millenial from the 1930s character he never knew he had in him. Adam collectors his favorite Saturday Morning Cartoons ... in Mezco 1:12 Collective form! Blake does a loooong and upsetting superhero costumes rant. Blake also gives Adam and the listener some much needed lessons in toy photography and the art of posing.

PLUS: Shelf Life reviews the entire Killer Croc wave AKA Mattel's farewall wave for DC Multiverse. This one gonna go out with a bang, folks, thanks to America's favorite Butler and his friends. CORRECTION: I am SO sorry I said "Tim Grayson" at one point. ANOTHER CORRECTION: We talk about the discovery that KGBeast appeared to be made from BAF parts, but failed to realize he's almost certainly a repurposed Lobo.
Blake doesn't remember the movie Batman Forever in the least.

                    <![CDATA[The Arnett brothers (Josh and Jon) are back and you know what that means--time to discuss RELIGION and CHRISTIAN TOYS! It's way funnier and less traumatic this time, I promise. Warning though: Josh is drunk as SHIT throughout. We all discuss our megachurch woes, and the bible action figure=selling church giftshop. Adam gets a Mezco Gomez (minus middle finger) and Blake gets his Billie Eilish grail. We crack the Haslab Conspiracy WIDE open. Everyone gets HORNY horny. Blake explains Taylor Boxes, the new cardboard collectible all Swifties should know about. We try to play "OUR MILLION DOLLAR TOY IDEA" -- a new game in which Blake invents Slime Bags and the gang brainstorms REAL Fortnite for kids!

PLUS much much more. Just listen, please.

Please rate, review, and subscribe.

                                            <![CDATA[Hey it's somewhere near our two-year anniversary of the podcast and we forgot to mention that--but have a cool new episode anyway! This time we visit Blake's Blockbuster Zone, a hot new movie podcast-within-a-podcast. Some great summer films about toys out there y'all. Warning: TOY STORY 4 TOYLERS.

Also...

Review of Worthy Captain America. Hasbro crowdfunded Cookie Monster and other life-size muppets. Speaking of muppets, are they a "huge turn-off"? Conan O'Brien "legally" marries his Funko Pop!s. Which toy would you marry? GLOW IN THE DARK figures! Including MOTU's Scareglow, Swamp Thing, Ghostbusters, Homer Simpson, and more! Mini Brands Chase Pez. WHAT WAS YOUR WOODY? Crash Test Dummies and Boom, My Forever Pal. Blake surprises Adam with an insane purchase of Funko's DC Primal Age Batcave and figures to boot. Or is it Savage World? Hard to say. Don't toy shop drunk. And finally, BLAKE BUYS A TOY LIVE ON AIR!]]>

We're also talkin' new X-Men Marvel Legends waves and Mondo Exclusive TMNT figures. Plus, a discussion of our toy GRAILS. What is a grail and what isn't? (Muppets and Super Powers Batman are totally grails). Special guest Jessica joins us once again to talk McDonald's toy nostalgia, because everyone needs a nugget friend. She also plays a new game with us called DITCH OR DISPLAY and it's an instant Shelf Life hit. Basically, we're Marie Kondo-ing our figures, and you won't believe what DOESN'T spark joy.

We wonder--and expert Jon helps us unpack--why doesn't anyone like GI Joe anymore? EVEN MORE of the Arnett family history is revisited, as it is so inextricably tied up in GI Joe nostalgia. We go beyond just Joe talk too, and broach cerebral topics like the psychology of our collecting addictions, and the dark nature of capitalism itself. But don't worry, we spend plenty of time talking about Chuckles! Jon recounts the glory days of the insane folks on the GI Joe forums in great detail. Then there is some...disagreement between Jon and Blake about Batman and Tom King. Had to shut that shit down.

We wonder--and expert Jon helps us unpack--why doesn't anyone like GI Joe anymore? EVEN MORE of the Arnett family history is revisited, as it is so inextricably tied up in GI Joe nostalgia. We go beyond just Joe talk too, and broach cerebral topics like the psychology of our collecting addictions, and the dark nature of capitalism itself. But don't worry, we spend plenty of time talking about Chuckles! Jon recounts the glory days of the insane folks on the GI Joe forums in great detail. Then there is some...disagreement between Jon and Blake about Batman and Tom King. Had to shut that shit down.

                                            <![CDATA[NO THIS EPISODE IS NOT JUST ABOUT BEANIE BABIES. Have to make that clear. But our guest, known toy-hater Josh, read a book on the topic (The Great Beanie Baby Bubble) so we decided to talk about collectible bubbles and how they burst. Are your toys really an investment? Are Funko Pop!s the same as Beanies? Listen and find out! (Spoiler: maybe?)
Mostly, though, this episode is a free-form comedic exploration of what's on Josh's drunken mind with occasional tangents into his TWISTED political rants, GI Joe, and religion.

Also: Toys we weren't allowed to have. Satanic Pogs. The Berenstain Bears go toy crazy. Garbage Pail Kids. Live opening of Trolls blind bags.

Warning: Josh says "bitch" SO much. Like a suspicious amount.

Blake had the most amazing toy day of his LIFE--plus he got the Mondo exclusive BTAS Batman figure recently--and he needs to dish about it like crazy. We're gonna deep dive into a review of this 12" bad boy. And hey...what time period did Batman: The Animated Series take place in, anyway? Because Blake and Adam are going to butt heads over it.
Next, Blake went buck wild on some MARVEL LEGENDS BLACK PANTHER WAVE 2 figs, and...a PRICE MIRACLE happened at WALMART. You won't believe your ears.
Also: Mezco One:12 Collective Catwoman. Yup, Blake got that today too. And it rules.
The boys discuss some...interesting news about MacFarlane toys and the DC license. It's been so long since we did a podcast Blake done nearly lost his voice on this one. But so worth it!

                                            <![CDATA[Welcome to 2019, everyone! In our first episode of the new year we lament Blake's Ongoing Mondo Batman Saga. We spend a lot of time on Adam's new Nightmare on Elm Street NECA Accessory Set (featuring a very special snake!) and Mezco One:12 Popeye. There is talk of a Ghostbusters / TMNT / Back To The Future crossover spec script penned by Adam. Blake says SLAPS way too much. We go deep into the Spider-verse (a movie which slaps).

                    <![CDATA[Welcome to 2019, everyone! In our first episode of the new year we lament Blake's Ongoing Mondo Batman Saga. We spend a lot of time on Adam's new Nightmare on Elm Street NECA Accessory Set (featuring a very special snake!) and Mezco One:12 Popeye. There is talk of a Ghostbusters / TMNT / Back To The Future crossover spec script penned by Adam. Blake says SLAPS way too much. We go deep into the Spider-verse (a movie which slaps).

                                            <![CDATA[It's still Christmas here on Shelf Life! We're only 5 days late! This time we're talking all about a little Christmas toy movie called LIFE-SIZE 2 which may or may not have the subtitle "A Christmas Eve." This movie poses the question, What if a Mattel-type company decided to cancel a Barbie-type doll in favor of something called "video game apps," causing the doll turn human in an attempt to save her own wretched life? Also, a spoiled millenial learns a valuable life lesson or something, and baby boomer writers teach us what they think it means to be woke.
Then, we exchange toys in possibly the saddest gift exchange ever captured on microphone.

Here's the REST of our live podcast from CaveCon 2018. This one is shorter and is mostly about two great interviews. One of our guests is from TV. Which one? Who's to say?
Also...we recorded this on International Podcast Day! So that's pretty cool!
Josh Roberts talks logistics of running a convention! Ming Chen talks sleazy Springfield, MO strip bars! He also shares his beautiful vision of the future of podcasts. Also I think there's something about cosplay turf wars in there.

Our very first live episode! Our baby podcast is growing up. We spent a weekend at CAVECON and this is a collection of our recordings from day 1. It skips around a lot. This will be a 2-parter. We talk and joke about the comic culture, cosplay, and of course TOYS we come across at the Con. We speak to randos who walk by. It's pretty wild stuff. It's longer than usual but that's because this is ALL PRIMO CONTENT BABYYYY.

This TWENTIETH EPISODE also serves as our one-year anniversary AND the conclusion of our Toys That Made Us coverage (until they make new ones). Our hosts were too dumb to figure out Transformers in their youth so they were stuck with working class figs like GI Joes. At some point we go waaaay deep into childhood and ex-wife trauma as we soul search for the real reason behind our toy-buying addictions. This episode...SHELF LIFE. GETS. REAL. 2/3 of us are in therapy. Also, why do some children (and adults) lie pathologically, especially about toys?

More topics: Turmoil In The Toybox returns. Was Optimus Prime saved? Ass Ventura: Crack Detective. Action Figures in the Attic. The Ballad of Lars Framness. The risk of getting Mutt. Eeyore and Peter Cullen. Michael Bay garbage movies. California Raisins. The armor of God. Tongue in Chic/Sheikh. High Beams &amp; Cockpits.

Game: Backcard Bios!

**SPOILERS for Transformers: The Movie (1986)

Our podcast now has a catchphrase: ONE. MORE. PUNCH.

More topics: Turmoil In The Toybox returns. Was Optimus Prime saved? Ass Ventura: Crack Detective. Action Figures in the Attic. The Ballad of Lars Framness. The risk of getting Mutt. Eeyore and Peter Cullen. Michael Bay garbage movies. California Raisins. The armor of God. Tongue in Chic/Sheikh. High Beams & Cockpits.

Game: Backcard Bios!

**SPOILERS for Transformers: The Movie (1986)

Our podcast now has a catchphrase: ONE. MORE. PUNCH.

This time we dissect an episode of Netflix's THE TOYS THAT MADE US that constantly reminds us it's not Star Wars. We're joined by resident Trek Expert (Trexpert) MATT TAYLOR who is also in Blake's band! Matt's not as much of a pathetic toi boi as we are so we gotta toysplain a lotta shit. Luckily he had plenty of childhood experience making grocery bag parachutes for GI Joes, which Blake didn't know was a thing. We talk about the episode and our experience with Star Trek--toys, shows, and movies--and do a bunch of goofs and horseshit too.
Also:
Label-slapping. verb. A phrase we repeat way too often.
Arkham Asylum, Toy Manufacturer.
The thrill of the flea market hunt.
Playmates, Diamond Select, Art Asylum, McFarlane Toys, Lego, Kre-o, Mega Construx.
I'M A TOY VANDAL BABY, I FUX WITH TOYS!

PLUS: TRU Wasteland and the REAL Hidden Figures. Adventures in NECA Turtles preorders. This podcast is now about Kimmy Schmidt and makeup. Does Kanye have some good ideas? (spoiler: no). Dilbert-bashing. Domo. Death of a Door-to-Door Hello Kitty Salesman.
WELCOME TO THE TOY INDUSTRY.

Anyway, this one's a whirlwind of topics. Adam, the Wine Boi, teaches us how to grift radio prizes. Blake catches up on the Marvel films and there are MAJOR SPOILERS FOR INFINITY WAR and other older Marvel movies so just don't. We talk about the battle for colorful rocks and how this one jerk, Thanos, can suck the joy out of an audience with a snap of his fingers.
Also: Toy Journalists, and HOW DO THEY AFFORD ALL THOSE WONDERFUL TOYS??. An evil doll shared universe (and more Chucky). Kingdom Hearts. More beef with busts. PETER DINK. Blake doesn't understand horror movies. What are Scary Dolls? 
FOAM TONY THE INCREDIBLE LIFESIZE IRON FRIEND ($1300 USD). 
Jurassic Park toys are back, baby. Chewbacca and Greedo's Buddy Road Trip Comedy (TM--a spec script Adam wrote as an over-imaginative child).
BIG BAD TOY STORE IS HAVING A MOTU CLASSICS SALE AND THESE FIGS ARE JUST MUST-HAVES.
The 4 quadrants of collecting.
And finally...UPCOMING TOYS AND COLLECTIBLES OF NOTE IN PREVIEWS MAGAZINE. Thanks, Diamond Distributors!

We discuss: Child's Play, Raggedy Ann &amp; Andy: A Musical Adventure, Small Soldiers, Big, and Batman Returns (not a toy movie). We flirt with: The 40-Year-Old Virgin, The Toy, Weird Science, Toy Story, and TOYS (1992). Blake wishes with every part of his soul that full-time toy tester was a real job.
Guest star: Jessica (AKA Mister Producer)

Content note: Danny DeVito's nude body, hairless and writhing in goo, bird-deformed, and otherwise nasty.]]>

Phew, glad that's over. I feel better. So, this time we talked about Netflix's show THE TOYS THAT MADE US: GI JOE to wrap up our show coverage (until they make more). The bad news is we mostly got on tangents and the podcast is 70% Back to the Future references. 
Sorry, again, that Josh keeps saying "back-cards." And also sorry that Adam sings. It's really hard to switch him off once he gets going.

Bullet points: Definition of toyetic. Barbie fucks. Josh's sign from God. Wet Barbie. Wine spill.
