Pow! Zammm! Biff!! And The Treasure-Hits keep on coming out of the box marked ‘GLASS’! Julee and Tom find some of their earliest toys ever recorded on Christmas morning and major nostalgia from some of the greats: Mattel, Remco, Mego, Kenner, Hasbro...AND...there’s one toy that STILL smells the same after all these years! Decades in fact! Which vintage toys had specific smells? Listen and find out!
Now in their forties, Julee and Tom Antonellis are reconnecting as brother and sister in THE MOST distant a socially-distant podcast can be in the United States. While recording on each coast (and seeing each other over FaceTime) all the way from Los Angeles (Tom) to Boston (Julee), they start unearthing the core lessons, laughs and connections of their childhood. Plus, Julee has to fight her fear of cobwebs while Tom enjoys the comfort of his office -- yet he CAN'T touch his beloved toys like she can.
As their Instagram bio indicates -- @backthroughthebasementpod -- you can follow them there to see pictures of everything they unearth -- Tom & Julee (actors, comics, voiceover artists & siblings), children of the 80s, must go through all their toys and belongings in their parents’ basement. Oh boy!
