Over this year, some companies challenged the president’s tariffs in court — including Illinois-based toymaker Learning Resources, whose case is now before the Supreme Court. On today’s Big Take Asia Podcast, host K. Oanh Ha is joined by Rick Woldenberg, CEO of Learning Resources, and Bloomberg’s Lucille Liu, to talk about the impact of the trade war on US importers and Chinese manufacturers – and what it ultimately means for American consumers.

And while Candice is a competent toymaker, she has an idea to bring cheer in a different way. There is a new carol that Candice is writing, but her job in the workshop is taking all of her energy away from her creative pursuits. Since Mr. and Mrs. Claus seem to be the only ones concerned with the work/ life balance of the halflings and elves in their employ, Candice doesn't much care for anyone who is under 5 feet tall, figuring that the height gives them a better perspective than her co-workers. Want to make a suggestion?

Killer toys, programmed by an older toymaker who works along with his son, are designed to kill children.Silent Night, Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker may be even more bizarre to watch than the last Silent, Deadly Night movie if it's possible. In a series with little to no continuity or identify, this installment features a drunken, elderly toymaker making toys programmed to kill children. A young boy appears to be the next target after the boy's father dies mysteriously from a toy left at their doorstep, and the event renders the boy mute. This movie is very fun to watch and has so many crazy storylines converging that are hard to make sense of. It all leads up to a few twists towards the end of the movie that are absolutely insane. While we have different opinions of this movie, we all agree it's very entertaining.

Seasons Greetings, FREAKQUENCY! To be festive and junk, film critic David Gonzalez has placed a murderous android underneath the Freakquels Christmas tree! Not to be malicious mind you, they actually wanted one for some reason. It's a weird podcast, what can I say?

During this holiday season, it seems like the perfect time to bring you the story of one of the bestselling toys ever - Cabbage Patch Kids! Inducted into the Toy Hall of Fame in 2023, Cabbage Patch Kids set every toy industry sales record for three years running from 1983-86, and has become one of the longest-running doll franchises in the United States. How did a Connecticut company produce the hottest toy of the 1980s - and then go broke? The license to produce Cabbage Patch Kids has gone through a record 7 toy companies. This episode is on the Coleco years - the toymaker with their headquarters in West Hartford.  Host Mary Donohue will share her experience buying the dolls and  Natalie Belanger, Grating the Nutmeg producer from the Connecticut Museum of Culture & History, her own childhood experience playing with the Cabbage Patch Kids. It's hard to believe after such a successful toy, but Coleco Industries were bankrupt by 1989.  The Hartford Courant published numerous full-page stories about what had gone wrong. The Courant reported that "With its revenues dropping and its debt mounting, Coleco faced some critical decisions. Toy industry analysts said the company should have  slowed its spending, cut expenses and waited for sales to improve. Instead, Coleco chose to borrow more and spend more, trying to develop a product to rival Cabbage Patch Kids. But the new toys it introduced-Rambo action figures, Furskins stuffed bears, a talking Cabbage Patch doll and Starcom space toys for boys sold only moderately well."

The US-China tariff war has upended global manufacturing, forcing companies like Chicago-based Learning Resources to fundamentally change how and where its products are made. On today’s Big Take Asia podcast, K. Oanh Ha heads to Vietnam, where the toymaker has begun shifting the production of its popular children’s toys. We examine how the company is managing its complex shift from China – where its toys have been made for decades – what the factory boom means for communities on the ground in Vietnam and how all of this will impact consumers.

Send us a textA near-drowning in the Norwegian fjords set a family on a path that would change how the world learns to save lives. We sit down with Jon Laerdal, Chief Product Officer at Laerdal Medical, to explore the unlikely journey from toy design to Resusci Anne, from classroom CPR to on‑the‑unit practice that measurably improves survival.Jon pulls back the curtain on how evidence and guidelines have shaped Laerdal's resuscitation portfolio and why RQI—Resuscitation Quality Improvement—now embedded in 3,000 U.S. hospitals, is redefining competency with low‑dose, high‑frequency training. We dive into the Safer Births program in Tanzania, co‑created with the American Academy of Pediatrics and Jhpiego, where frequent, team‑based simulations on the ward correlate with dramatic reductions in newborn and maternal deaths. The thread through it all is a simple, rigorous idea: put practice where care happens, make it frequent, and let data guide improvement.We also talk about the tech landscape without the hype. VR and mixed reality bring decision‑making into virtual and blended spaces, while AI lightens scenario design and powers more responsive debriefs. But the payoff comes when these tools join a circular learning model—reading, skills, simulation, team training, and clinical practice—connected by actionable insights. That is where simulation evolves from a one‑off event to a quality improvement engine that exposes latent safety threats and closes the gap between training and therapy.If more than half of global deaths stem from time‑critical emergencies, preparing responders everywhere is not optional; it's urgent. Jon shares Laerdal's goal to help save one million more lives by 2030 and offers concrete steps educators and leaders can take to build cultures of practice that stick.

Our Village Hall was built in the 1800s… and honestly, the office furniture seemed like it came with the building.

I practically needed a crowbar to open them.Then I found out Valley Road Office Furniture is a NYS Contract vendor which guarantees the lowest possible price on office furnishings.

She used some of her winnings to set up her home studio and undertake training and since then has voiced hundreds of projects from dry announcements for The United Nations to zany gaming characters, audiobooks, animations and Voice of God.
