Chris and Dave love to reminisce about the past, but they aren't stupid - they know some things way back when really weren't that great. And so they've decided to talk about them. Because, you know, it's a podcast. So join us as we regale you with stories of walking home uphill through snow in ill-fitting Velcro shoes with only a bad photograph of a map from a tattered old road atlas to guide our way!

Dedicated TMAGheads* know Chris and Dave have strong and very different opinions on digital and physical media. We revisit that debate to see if our perspectives have shifted with time. Also, we are joined by a special and very non-middle-aged guest to speak for entire generations of younger folk.

Is Dave a reformed physicalist, now living a life dedicated to collecting Edison wax cylinder recordings? Has Chris liquidated his beloved Laser Disk collection? Can a person under 25 stop Tik Toking long enough to appear on a podcast? These questions and more will be answered in Digital v Physical, part 2.

*we are workshopping TMAGheads as a way of describing our fan(s). Let us know what you think!

Remember toys?

Not the expensive ones they sell today to adult collectors that never get opened and are kept on high selves, far away from the filthy hands of little children. We mean the kind of toys kids play with.

Well, Chris and Dave do! Join us as we look back at our favorite toys and the wonderful times spent with them, executing complex bedroom adventures featuring fully articulating real American heroes and anthropomorphized martial-arts-practicing reptiles.

Also, we take a look at the toys of today, giving our very middle aged opinion on them. Will we tell them to get off our lawns? Take a listen and find out!
