Standard Orbit: A Star Trek Original Series Podcast

Standard Orbit 249: The Toys That Made Us Star Trek Toys With John Tenuto. This week on Standard Orbit, host Zach Moore is joined by sociology professor and Star Trek historian John Tenuto to discuss the long history of Star Trek toys. We discuss John and his wife Mary Jo's appearances on Netflix's "The Toys That Made Us," the famous (and infamous in some cases) action figures by Mego, the ever-other-movie approach to toys and merchandise in the TOS movie era, the evolution of action figures in the modern age of collectables and many of John and Zach's favorite Star Trek toys from over the years. What was the story behind the wildly inaccurate Mego Gorn action figure? Why did the licensees keep guessing wrong on when to make a merchandising push during the movie era? The TNG Galoob line: the forgotten Star Trek toy line? All this and much more in this special Christmas-sized edition of Standard Orbit! Merry Christmas! Chapters  Welcome to Standard Orbit!

In this episode of Conversation on Tap, Jose is joined by... Jose, who was a guest in a previous episode. We begin the episode by drinking the delicious Barrel House Mango IPA-- a drink so good that Jose (the regular co-host) got slightly drunk and spilled his beer. For their FRED Talk, Jose (guest) talked about the cancellation of the Roseanne show after a series of racist Tweets; Jose talked about the exact date of Jesus' crucifixion. They also discussed the Janus decision by the Supreme Court and how that will impact public sector unions. But, once they got started, the two Joses took sides: Marvel or DCEU. On the one hand, DC has been raking in the dough at the box office, but Marvel has a visionary in the guise of Kevin Feige. They also take some time to discuss moustache-gate and the fact that both Superman and Batman have mothers named Martha. It was quite the nerdy chat, but as the Mango IPA flowed the two Joses focused more and more on DC and less on Marvel. As they wrapped it up, Jose (guest) talked about watching Netflix's The Toys That Made Us; Jose talked about how Queer Eye made him cry. Hopefully, you enjoyed the discussion! If you did, then please share this episode with your friends on social media. We will see you next week! Salut!

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.

This episode is the first half of our coverage of Netflix's "The Toys That Made Us" docuseries, discussing Star Wars and Barbie toys. Straight off the top I want to apologize for referring to Batwoman as Batgirl (or allowing Josh to do so). Special guests(!): Jess and Josh. Bullet points: Definition of toyetic. Barbie fucks. Josh's sign from God. Wet Barbie. Wine spill. George Lucas declined to be interviewed for this podcast.
