The Mothball Prophecies

EP 9 - Kate Hart of Bitter Squeaks


Listen Later

You guys know what to expect when you tune in for an episode of The Mothball Prophecies. Whatever that expectation is, throw it out the window. This week's guest is a new level of niche. Kate Hart, owner of Bitter Squeaks, is the empress of fangirls. This woman and her collection almost defy explanation. Kate used to be your average gothic bonbon of delight, but one fateful day she discovered a bizarre squeak toy that changed her life. There began the strange journey from estate sale to Etsy with a bunch of weird stops in between. Based in Long Beach, California, Kate collects originals and reproduces toys designed and inspired by Edward Mobley. Her collection includes toys in mint condition (still in the box!), prototypes, copper molds, and everything in between. During the interview, the Mavens somehow end up talking about quaint hometown traditions that leave us all wondering what's really going on in Idaho. Keep hands and feet in the vehicle at all times kids; this one's a roller-coaster.
