11.17.06 – Episode 1 : The Toyventure Begins
Show Notes – Welcome to Toy Break! This is the first of what we hope will be many episodes of us blathering on about toys and whatnot. We’re still working out the kinks, so please bear with us and let us know what kind of things you would like to see on the show and your ideas for improving it. We also want to apologize about the audio during the interview with Eric Treadaway. It’s been cleaned up a lot, but there was an air conditioner buzz that we couldn’t get rid of. So thanks for taking the time to check out Toy Break and send us your questions and comments! Enjoy!
