Podcasts about playtable

We’re back and better than before! Okay, maybe that might be debatable, but after a couple week hiatus because of family, the holidays, and travel, the world’s number one toys-to-life podcast has returned in its purest form! The break was much needed, but it came with a price, as the rust from not recording weekly definitely shows. Regardless of the side of the hill we flew into multiple times, we kick off 2017 with a bang, as we discuss plenty of toys, some of which have gone rogue.     After catching up with each other, since we haven’t spoken in what feels like forever, we eventually get down to the news, which started off with the biggest surprise of the new year thus far. That’s right, we got some Disney Infinity news to talk about, and it was a treat for sure. We also check in with the familiar franchises of LEGO Dimensions and Skylanders, as well as discussing Nintendo’s upcoming plans. Also, less we not forget the newcomers to the news cycle, as we discuss Beasts of Balance, Toyji, Lightseekers, and present a new product to keep an eye out for in 2017, PlayTable.   From there, we read the #CommunityQuestion and awarded a listener a cool prize for having the Response of the Week. We skip the Inquire This! segment this week, sadly. And finally, we wrapped up the show with some fantastic emails, as always!   All this, and more, only in Episode 101!

Two stars" Robert: "Amazing. Everything I wanted an F&F sequel to be. You have a submarine chasing race cars in the arctic tundra. Glorious. 102 stars" Review - Rogue One Jermaine: "I love, love this movie. Had low expectations but it totally blew me away. 100% recommend" Darrell: "Alan Tudyk was amazing in this movie.
