What's the best way to usher in the New Year? On this week's episode, legendary voiceover artist Bill Ratner shares a true story from his early days in Radio: When his green card bride Claudine leaves him, he's alone during the Holidays in an empty double wide and his evening shift duties at KJOI (LA's easy listening music station). So when a fan requests something a bit more intimate than the Percy Faith Orchestra, why not make her happy? And on New Year's Eve, they produce their own live show together over the air waves, using the station's 50,000 watts of power to make the world a bit less lonely.  And Dixie ends the year with the story you've been asking her for. #HappyNewYear   Song: ‘Love's A Stranger' (Warhaus)   New Year l Radio DJ l Drive by Fucking l Anonymous Sex | Music Request Line l Radio Antenna l 1970's l Lubrication l Harlequin Romance Novel l Top of Topanga Mobile Home Park l Double Wide l Vaseline l Instrumental Radio l Muzak l Muumuu | Terrycloth Bathtub Animals l FM Transmitter l Top of the Hour l Station ID l Honda Civic l Radio Console l Blinking LEDs I Percy Faith Orchestra l Middle Age l Smog l Order Up a Man l Microphone l Los Angeles l Happy New Year l Divorce l Radio Tower l Lawrence Welk l Green Card l Quell l Radio Station l Marriage l Swiss l London l LA l Radio Announcer l Chief Engineer l Sales Manager l   About our Storyteller:   Bill Ratner is one of Hollywood's premier voiceover artists and a published poet, essayist, and fiction writer.

The Bro's hit up a small convention in Orlando and discuss some new movies.

Order of Battle Podcast episode 65 As we continue to prep for JoeFest, we sat down with JE Russell to talk about his Figure Customizing Class. He's been running this class for years at JoeCon, continuing on for years at JoeFest.  But that wasn't what happened. Instead we had a master class conversation with Russell about the customizing class, about his Chicken Fried Toys company, 3.75-4” action figures as a concept and so much more.  JE Russell is a fount of knowledge within and well beyond GIJoe, casting, boutique design, and more.  Russell spends just as much time boosting other customizers and companies as he does promoting his own projects. It's a lot of fun to talk to someone this community focused and confident in his place in that community.  Take a look at his toy line, shop his cast and customs at JoeFest, and absolutely take his customizing class at JoeFest. Also… did you know JoeFest had Bingo with giveaways? Well you do now! Russell runs it!  Chicken Fried Toys: Dime Novel Legends: https://chickenfriedtoys.com/ Get your JoeFest tickets: www.joefestusa.com Website: www.orderofbattlepod.com Email: orderofbattlepod@gmail.com Twitter: @orderofbattlepd Instagram: @orderofbattlepod #gijoe

Order of Battle Podcast episode 63 James Kavanaugh Jr, dubbed Notable Author by WoJM and, notably the author of six GIJoe collector guides and one Transformer guide, joins Joel and Jason this time!   James discusses the history of GIJoe fan lead collector clubs, Hasbro's involvement, and why after four years without one, now is the time for a rebirth. He's a fount of knowledge, folklore, anecdotes, and collector philosophy. This time he's sharing it all with Order of Battle for his newly launched GIJoe Fan Club, which is well into the Membership sign up process.  If you want the whole kit and be in from day one, you have until 13 May 2022 to sign up. Any later than that and you'll miss out on a few goodies.  The thing about James is that he is creative that gets things done. He's well vetted in the community through his books, time on podcasts like WojM and Full Force, his work with the GIJoe Collectors Club, Joe Con, Bot Con, JoeFest, and more.  So join the conversation, sign up, and pay the entry fee for the new GIJoe Fan Club:  https://gijoefanclub.com/ Get your tickets: www.joefestusa.com Website: www.orderofbattlepod.com Email: orderofbattlepod@gmail.com Twitter: @orderofbattlepd Instagram: @orderofbattlepod #gijoe

No podríamos pensar en mejor invitado para, no solo daros nuestra opinión sobre "Snake Eyes, el origen", si no también para charlar sobre las adaptaciones cinematográficas de G.I. Joe y sobre dos de los proyectos de los que es parte activa. Benjamin Bruña, aliado en proyectos amigos como La Hora Random, es conocido por Poliplasticomanos, el podcast sobre figuras de acción que produce, y por formar parte de ese totem del podcasting que es La Fosa del Rancor.

We had a plan, we swear! However, sometimes, it's better to let the course of conversation dictate the show, so as we battled through an evening of audio problems, Sunbow legends Bill "Flint" Ratner and Arthur "Destro" Burghardt reminisced about their time on GI Joe.  These are two old friends who hadn't had a chance to talk - sure, they've crossed paths here and there at shows, but hadn't been able to REALLY TALK -- in a long time, and we were thrilled that they shared a glimpse of their friendship with us.  Enjoy!

Virtual JoeCon powers onward with a new panel, led by Arune Singh, Vice President of Marketing for BOOM! Studios!  Arune gets to the core of GI Joe fandom with Mike Irizarry, "The Honcho" Mark Weber, cosplayer extraordinaire Sara Detrick, and IDW G.I. Joe scribe Paul Allor, piecing together what makes their individual Skystrikers fly.  It's a fun discussion with a lot of heart!

The Transformers live-action movies seem to be getting a lot of new attention. Even Newage is getting into the game with an MP Soundwave with a couple of minions. Since the Origins line doesn't seem to have any updates, and the Snake Mountain update was less than stellar, Mondo's Man-At-Arms official pics, will have to suffice for new MOTU. Speaking of high-end 1/6th scale, I'm curious if Hot Toys completists are happy with their new direction of doing repaints like a vintage figure inspired Boba Fett. And after a few shows with some action figure news, nothing new for Joe except for more movie news.

JOEVERLOAD!  That's the only way to describe the WOJM studio when Joe Slepski (host of Joe On Joe Podcast) and Joe Holp (host of The File Card Podcast) stop by to plug their shows!  Thrill as the Joes fight in a three-way ladder match for the Intercontinental Title!

Will 6 inch Joes kill the 1/18th scale? Probably not, but I'm warming up to them. Original designs are almost dead in Transformers 3rd Party, but the Magnus redeco of Generation Toys Optimus Primal is as close as it gets and I love it. I don't think Mafex will be killing off SHF or TBS anytime soon, but their Mando is a thing o beauty. MOTU is definitely not killing anything as the only news was a teaser and pics from the final season of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.

On April 25, 2011, WOJM launched launched its first episode, and nine years later, we're still chugging along!  Mike, Joe, and Mark are on hand to spread the news during a curiously low-key anniversary fandango... ... that's actually the launch of the WHAT'S ON JOE MIND? VIRTUAL JOECON!   Starting today, we're throwing open the gates on the charitable part of the project - WOJM is raising money for World Central Kitchen, an organization that provides meals to first responders and displaced victims from all manner of tragedies that's been busting it double-time in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic!  We'll be collecting donations through May 10... let's team up and obliterate our $2000 goal!  Here's the link: https://donate.wck.org/whatsonjoemind Your donations are going STRAIGHT TO WCK!  You're not sending anything to WOJM.  If you're in a place where you can send a donation, please help us - and any number of first responders, displaced medical personnel, hungry would-be schoolchildren, or any number of folks who need a hot meal during these trying times!THEN... VIRTUAL JOECON BEGINS!  From Monday, May 4, through Saturday, May 10, you'll be getting one star-studded panel per day!  Guests will include: Paul Allor, writer on IDW's GI Joe Sara Detrick, cosplayer extraordinaire Terry Dizard, administrator of Yojoe.com Curtis Herod, host of GI Joburg Joe Holp, host of The File Card Podcast Arune Singh, VP of Marketing for BOOM! Studios Joe Slepski, host of Joe On Joe Podcast PLUS Mike Irizarry, Joe Colton, "The Honcho" Mark Weber, and Rack Time Rob Irizarry! PLUS members of the cast of Marvel/Sunbow's GI Joe: A Real American Hero! PLUS Prizes, courtesy of Kokomo Toys and ROMA Collectibles! It'll be a six-day event you won't want to miss! As always, admission to The WOJM Virtual JoeCon is ABSOLUTELY FREE. So let's get together, have some laughs, raise some funds for a great cause and do some good while we're all stuck inside!  STAY POSITIVE AND YO JOE!

Taking some time out from simply talking about what they are watching on TV, the Regular Joes sit down with Bill Nedrow who recently published The Joy of JoeCon, a collection of essays reflecting on the history and resonance of the long running International G.I. Joe Collectors Club Convention or JoeCon. After that they talk about stuff they bought (What’s in the Box) and reviving their very first recurring segment (Desert Island DVD) ignore the reality that you can now stream most anything, and pick what Video comfort food they would choose, or recommend. Cheer up folks the curve is flattening!   Thanks for listening and Stay safe!

What an incredible year! 2018! Awesome guests on the show; the expansion of the YouTube channel; the SUCCESSFUL GoFundMe campaign; JOECON (!!!); new friends; new toys; and finally a Jinx to Steve's Falcon. It's a bumper episode of enthusiastic boys and their beloved hobby. Hope you enjoy listening to the fun as much as we enjoyed recording it.   Track Featured in Cujo's Filecard insert: Chronopolis by Ivan Black

Steve got a Mauler at JoeCon. And would you believe ONLY NOW, a full two months after the event, is it in his hands?! In honour of Joe tanks, the boys are pitting their favourites against Steve's Mauler in a battle that YOU decide the outcome of! Polls will be held on the GI Joburg Twitter page and Facebook group for the next five days, so listen to the podcast and get voting!    Also in this episode, we pay tribute to the late Russ Heath. Joe fans everywhere are indebted to this man. 

It's been a month since our epic USA adventure and we've had ample time to reflect on the time that was. So we're unpacking some of our experiences and of course all of the awesome toys we've acquired. What toys may have surprised us... and what toys may have disappointed us... And it wouldn't be an episode of GI Joburg without some debate! So we pit the Raider against the HAVOC and the Battle Wagon against the Earthquake as we ask the eternal playground question: who would win in a fight!?

It's the last JoeCon!  They've been home for weeks, but join Mike, Joe, and Carson as they unpack from the 2018 Joecon! They've got stories to tell, news to spread, and Joe may even shed a tear or two! What's next for the community?  What's On Joe Mind RIDES AGAIN!!

Cujo presents his ambush-style JoeCon 2018 interviews. Who did he corner? What secrets did he elicit? Have a listen and (almost) all will be revealed...   Music Featured:   https://soundcloud.com/holyrain https://soundcloud.com/stilzyyc

Convention exclusives used to motivate me, however this year the closest it gets is Laughing Adam from Super7. As amazing as it is, that's a little sad. Masterpiece figures used to motivate me. Unfortunately, we're over 40 deep and all the new ones are either repaints, Movieverse or Beastwars. New Star Wars movies used to motivate me. Now, that we get one every year, I'm just not that excited anymore. Jedi Temple Archive readers seem to feel the same way. It seems like no one is really motivated by G.I. Joe anymore except for me. Between the JoeCon exclusives and all the new announcements, I'm more motivated to collect Joe than any of the other lines right now.

In this episode of Star Joes, Ryan and Robert are joined by Eric to talk about Joe Con, Joe Fest, the state of the Star Wars movies, and give their thoughts on the Solo movie. All of this, plus Robert ruins a wholesome family film. Enjoy!

I know I said that this would be a normal episode, but due to Heroes Con, Joe Con, and my daughter performing in some local Jr. theater, well... We didn't get an episode recorded this month. Instead I bring you another special episode. First up, I give you this month's Solider Of The Month. Find out who it is, listen in. For a guess, you can check our our Facebook page for clues... Then at 4 minutes fifty seconds, I bust out some letters with Postbox: The Pit! Then at 14 minutes and 55 seconds, I wish our "founder", Larry Hama, a very special birthday. Then finally at 21 minutes in, I start the Buzz Dixon interview. This is the same interview I played in episodes 16 and 17, but instead of being split up and played several months apart, I play the whole interview commerical free. Promos played this episode: Married With Comics Jarrod Alberich's new comic. Oh, yeah. Happy Fourth of July to all my American Joes! Yo Joe!

Will and Sean start off with an off-the-cuff discussion on the demise of JoeCon and the future of GI Joe and then ramble randomly as they are wont to do.  this episode is sponsored by www.coastcitycomics.com

This past week, Dave, Barry and Tod attended the 2018 GI Joe Collectors Convention, in lovely Chattanooga, Tennessee.  It was bittersweet since it’s the last GI Joe convention of its kind. Join the Regular Joes as they celebrate the end of an era along with the 4thRegular Joe Derryl DePriest, GI Joe Convention and Club president Brian Savage, and a host of other long time GI Joe collectors and friends of the show as they reminisce about conventions past and speculate on GI Joe’s future.  It’s a show that anyone who every collected anything will appreciate, and a very sentimental show for the Regular Joes, who all met at the GI Joe convention back in 1999.  As always, Thanks for listening…and Yo Joe!

We talk the first wave of SDCC Exclusives along with sharing stories from Nate's time at JoeCon

Companies are finally learning from their experience. Hasbro Toy Shop has finally listed their SDCC exclusives months in advance of the on-sale date that they also specified. Only took them 15 years to figure that out. Hasbro/Takara also seem to be learning from their past. The new MP Optimus Prime looks amazing. How many versions of it to you foresee buying? Super7 is a quick a learner as well. They have been fine-tuning their MOTU messaging through their He-Man.org Q and A. Unfortunately, to a point where they're pretty much useless. A company that has never learned their lesson is FunPub. There's not even a link on their site, but they have delayed their first FSS 7 shipment supposedly due to US Customs. Yet, they are delaying it for almost two months. JoeCon ran just as unsmoothly as usual as well. Considering this is their last year, I guess they'll never learn.

After an incredible weekend at JoeCon 2018 and a day of sightseeing in Washington, the guys unwind and reflect on the time that was. No frills, just four guys talking about the experience. Oh, and also historical: it's the first podcast the members of GI Joburg have ever reorded from the same location. WHAAAAAT?!

It's a star studded podcast with tons of guest appearances from the Joe elite.  We talked to famed author James Kavanaugh, founder of Marauders Gun runners Marauder John and picked the brains of many joe fans as we experienced the FINAL Joecon.  We even got to see famed Joe rapper Wordburglar live in concert.  This episode was recorded live over 5 Joe filled days in Chattanooga, TN.

HERE WE GO! Final podcast before Steve, Paul and Rob board a plane to the 2018 G.I. Joe Convention! It's nothing short of a dream. We chat about our Convention expectations, dreams, aspirations. The itinerary is discussed and as a special treat, we've got customiser extraordinaire Jim Godfrey on the show to talk about a very special custom he's been working on... If you're headed to the Con and want to get into the mood; or if you're not going to the Con and you want a slice of the action, GI Joburg is there!    A REAL SOUTH AFRICAN HERO! G.I. JOE!   ...burg.

And if you haven't heard it already, catch Steve as he guests on Joe On Joe Podcast!   http://joeonjoe.com/gi-joe-ep-117-general-confusion-w-steve-jubber   Our official GI Joburg T-shirts are currently being printed!

Joe on Joe spans the globe today as we welcome Steve Jubber from the great GIJOBURG podcast out of South Africa! Together we talk being an international collector and fan, his upcoming trip to JoeCon 2018 and watch a pretty great episode of G.I. Joe! The Filecard Feature is on the G.I. Joe Tomahawk Pilot... Lift-Ticket! Don't forget to check out our Joe on Joe Patron page, where you can help support the show and get exclusive access to Joe on Joe Illustrated where we break down every single issue of the G.I. Joe comic book!

Ever since we owned our first vehicle an eternal question has plagued us: who sits where? How do you decide? Cartoon or comic book appearances? Filecard info? Personal preference? Colour scheme?!? The Joburg boys are joined by JD Onesi of General Geekery Podcast, one of the most well-versed GI Joe geeks out there, to decide on the best personel for some of their favourite vehicles. We also start getting hyped about JoeCon and the recent release of our final Atlantis Factor episode. And if you donate $5 or more to our Go Fund Me before the end of Sunday the 27th of May 2018, you get to decide who features in our next web series!

Dual topic on this show! GI Joburg discuss their personal fave picks of the unexpected FSS 8.0. And then we introduce the GI Joburg HALL OF SHAME! Not every toy released under the Joe banner was a winner and in this episode the boys introduce their LEAST favourite figures, vehicles, and concepts from their beloved toyline. Rob and Steve have been hitting the bottle and Paul's head is always swimming in paint fumes so prep thyself for...  shenanigans.     And hey! As always, if you have a few bucks lying spare, we're drawing closer to our goal and you can be a part of this awesome JoeCon success story! Aaaand score some exclusive Joburg merch. Check us out at: www.gofundme.com/gijoburg-joecon2018    

Steve is in Romania of all places! It's the home of Dracula and and some of the creepiest castles around! So what better opportunity to talk about GI Joe's very own Silent Castle and it's role in the mythology? Take a trip with us as we engage in some operations deep inside Eastern Europe...   And it's getting down to the wire for our JoeCon 2018 GoFundMe! Will the South Africans make it to their first JoeCon in June this year? If you like what we do and you're in a position to help out, please check our campaign over at www.gofundme.com/gijoburg-joecon2018   Thanks gang, and Yo Joe!   ...Burg!

Something I didn't waste any time or money on was the Solo toy drop that happened with barely a whisper from the community. If you're hunting, Yakface.com did waste some time making a checklist just for you. For some, stop-motion animation may feel like a complete waste of time, especially considering it takes on average an hour to film one second. I really love it and I'm excited that a Joe stop-motion film festival is debuting in my hometown. Hopefully, something that is not a waste of time and money is Super7 being back in China doing QC reviews of the Power-Con Filmation exclusives. Our first taste wasn't great. With these coming in just under $200 (with tax, shipping and handling) for three figures, they had better be on point. Looks like Takara wasted an opportunity with their Encore God Fire. This $270 abomination is being recalled due to some serious QC issues. Sorry for the longer than usual diatribe this time around, let's not waste any more of your time.

We did it for the Vintage 1982-1994 A Real American Hero toyline, it's only natural we follow it up with a "Modern Era" one... Presenting the "No-Ring" Buyer's Guide! The members of GI Joburg have each compiled their top 10 must-have Joes, top 10 must-have Cobras, and top 5 modern vehicles from each team produced post 25th Anniversary! If you're looking to start collecting the modern figures - this podcast will get you off to the right start! And if you are already in possession of a fabulous amount of Modern Era Joes, compile a list of your own and compare tastes with Steve, Paul, Rob and Cujo! What FUNNNNN!   And if you're in a position to help GI Joburg get to JoeCon 2018, here's our JoeFundMe link: www.gofundme.com/gijoburg-joecon2018 Yo Joe (Burg), everybody!

I guess there is always another day, unless your Toys”R”Us. Their last day is coming. We talk about what that means and what the first day of the liquidation looked like. IDW's Transformers run is also coming to an end. It's a conclusion to an era and I'm excited for the next incarnation. Another thing that is approaching its last day is G.I. Joe Collectors' Club. You can now purchase their last incentive figure. Something that looks like it has many days to come is HasLab. Their flagship product has been back by over 5,000 people. The Star Wars 3.75 community came together and crowdfunded a 2.5 million dollar project. Another thing that continues to have its day is Power-Con. This small but passionate convention consistently brings it and this year is no different. 3 Filmation exclusives are coming our way. They definitely have the power.

Hey Joburgers! So Cujo went to WonderCon last weekend and he's just bursting with stories he'd like to share, including a brushing with a man EVERY fan of GI Joe: A Real American Hero owe a great debt to... 'nuff said!   Also, Steve drops some sneak peek info on the next installment of The Atlantis Factor; and the debate rages as to who the best Cobra pilot is: Wild Weasel or Strato Viper? Check the GI Joburg Twitter or Facebook Group for the poll!   And if you're in a generous mood, please consider throwing some bucks at our Go Fund Me to get GI Joburg to JoeCon 2018!   www.gofundme.com/gijoburg-joecon2018    

Rob, Paul, Steve and Cujo are gonna shove their opinions down your throat! If you just so happened to NOT be in possession of the greatest toys in the universe, join us as we run down a list of the top 10 vintage Joes and Cobras, and top 5 vehicles from each team YOU MUST OWN! There will be blood. And it will be from your haemmoraging credit card. AND if you already have the greatest toys in the universe, and you love this show, maybe you can part with some sheckles to help us get to JoeCon 2018!     www.gofundme.com/gijoburg-joecon2018  

I actually appreciate obsession. I feel it can be healthy if taken with a grain of salt. Kind of like this Hasbro Abominus. It looks amazing, but that's probably not the truth. It's most likely going to be very mediocre. If your Star Wars EU obsession hasn't been satisfied, now you can buy Darth Revan by the case. With Super7 not really pushing the envelope, or even maintaining the quality of MOTUC, Masters fans may find their new obsession in these upcoming Mondo figs. Finally, it's an interesting paradigm when one boxset has figures you are completely obsessed with and figures you could completely care less about. Great job G.I. Joe Collectors' Club.
