Ep 163 - Kidults

The media has recently been highlighting how adults have turned to collecting and playing with kids toys, action figures and Lego. They have even given them a new name, “kidults.” But this is not a new thing. Adults have been doing this for decades, maybe forever. Model trains, doll collections and trading cards have been around and were common fixtures in our parents’ and grandparents’ homes. So why is this news now?

Ep 118 - Geeky Genealogy

Chances are, you’re probably not the only geek in your family. Maybe your dad used to take you to the comic book shop or to go see the new sci-fi movie playing at the drive-in. Maybe your grandfather showed you how to make cool models for the train set in his garage. Maybe you had a cool aunt who got you into awesome book series or always played board games with you. This week we’re looking into our geeky genealogy and the people who made us the geeks we are today.
