Season 2 - Episode 3: It’s a Hot Wheels World

Person, Place or Thing:

Jonathan takes us to the beaches of California for a very crabby Person, Place or Thing. A great one for all of you crustacean fans, so listen in, but just don’t forget your waders, rods & reels. If you are lucky, you just might also hear a few fish tales!

Common Knowledge of the Day:

For our third episode of the season, JP puts it in gear and drives us into the world of collectables, most notably the world of die-cast cars. Not only will we explore the history of iconic brands such as Matchbox and HotWheels but JP also gives us a personal glimpse into the world of those who collect them. We discuss just how these small but iconic collectables have not only spilled over into areas of art and culture, and also how the act of collecting can bring some joy to our everyday lives. So listen in and get ready to turn your grocery store run into a treasure hunt!
