Our sister podcast "I've Got a Bad Feeling Abot This", bonus episode!

This week on I’ve Got a Bad Feeling About This, host Chisel is joined by Jonathan Fallon and special guest Seneca for a deep dive into the weird, hilarious, and sometimes chaotic world of the toy collecting community.

Episode 34, “Friends with Benefits,” isn’t about romance—it’s about the kind of friendships you build when you spend enough weekends digging through toy bins, setting up tables at conventions, and arguing over whether that loose figure is “complete enough.” The crew talks about how they first crossed paths selling toys, the toy shows that brought them together, and the strange journey of a certain show that kept moving from place to place as the community followed it.

Along the way, they share stories from the trenches of the collectible world:

• The good – the friendships, the finds, and the thrill of the hunt.
• The bad – tough deals, weird buyers, and the occasional toy-show drama.
• The ugly – the moments that make you question your life choices while standing behind a vendor table for eight hours.

From working toy stores to setting up at toy shows, the conversation jumps between behind-the-scenes stories, collector culture, and the kind of inside jokes that only make sense if you’ve ever spent way too long debating the value of a plastic figure from 1987.

It’s a laid-back, laugh-filled episode packed with stories from the toy trenches, memories of how the crew met, and a reminder that sometimes the best part of the hobby isn’t the toys—it’s the people you meet along the way.
