As Tom and Julee approach the end of the stuffed animal bags (questionable dolls, a mangled duck, “rando” bunnies, etc.) they still must keep laser focus on whether to keep/sell/donate/biff. (They're not so focused though that they can't afford a moment to teach a new phrase for throwing away or a quick visit to Christmas morning vintage audio.)  Also...they find a treasure that looks part Jawa, a little Ewok and a bit snowman! He’s definitely an 80s throwback...hope we have batteries! Come laugh along as they unearth some of those creepy toys at the bottom of the bag and Julee reveals to Tom a new 40’s development in her life!  (Haha)

Now in their forties, Julee and Tom 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.
