    Won’t listen again
    I listened to the Emily episode. First time and last time. Emily herself was FANTASTIC but I hated how condescending the “main” host was to his friend who was just trying to get through the script about their social media stuff. Great friend, right? Also, we know you have kids, dude. You don’t need to remind us every six seconds.
  • JohnF in Dallas
    Great except for-
    A great podcast and you can tell the two brothers are really into what they are talking about. Other than the tiresomeness of Dave’s bit and his constant use of the word “umm” that is beyond distracting, it is a great show.
  • JRuegg1205
    All this for some plastic...
    Who knew that when we get older, we would still be collecting toys? Well, this guy and the fellas from this great podcast definitely did. I love the great interviews with both people in the toy business, but also fellow collectors. It’s like we have a home to chat about our favorite things... thanks guys!! Keep killing it!
  • trdfortoys
    Fantastic Podcast
    Stumbled across the AIC podcast because I collect as well as do a lot of toy photography. Love the interviews as well as just listening to the guys talking about their hauls and news.
  • Ess_boogie
    Incredible and honest interview content.
    The one thing I love about this podcast above other is... the hosts have an ability to touch on sensitive topics allowing for their guests to provide a thoughtful answer we wouldn't get somewhere else. I wish reviewers and voices in the industry would pit more pressure on the companies that produce to answer to the experience we are having as collectors. Erik is especially disarming and connects with his guests on multiple levels allowing for a complete conversation that gives us insight to the guests and industry. This interview was on one of my favorite and is definitely worth a listen.
  • @coreyyuman
    Fantastic Podcast!
    I don’t even collect the bulk of the toys they discuss but I still listened to every episode. Love all the different interviews from people in the toy world from collectors to creators. Definitely give this one a listen!
  • MRaimondi675
    For anyone who has ever played with toys.
    Great listen from someone who isn’t even a toy collector but has had toys and enjoys learning about the sub culture.
