Show Notes Episode 342: Come And Buy My Weird Ass Toys

This week Host Dave Bledsoe opens up his childhood toybox, by which we mean, he gets drunk and plays with all the toys he, a 52 year old man, has at home. (Again) On the show this week we head back to the 1970’s to look at all the toys that were physically or psychologically (sometimes both) harmful to children that people thought were just fine.

Along the way we learn where Dave’s phobia about toilet sharks originates. (And why he still poops in a bucket) From there we dive right into all the mind bogglingly bizarre toys that 70’s toy designers brought to market! From plastic cows that may or may not have secreted semen, to Pet Rocks useful for domestic violence, to an indestructible doll that could be placed in plenty of perverse poses. (There was nothing innocent about youth in the 70’s) Finally a game for children about the fragility of human life and how delicious human flesh tasted! (Dahmer the Home Game!)

Our Sponsor this week is DaveCo’s My Pet Fart! The most fun you can have with a bottle of farts! We open with Mainway Toys and close with Christian Lipski trying to move some second hand merchandise.
