Diamond Distributors is doing Diamond Distributors stuff. Mattel and Big Bad Toy Store announce pre-orders for MotU/Thundercats crossover action figures. C2E2 is coming up this weekend, with a wide variety of entertainment options in different fandoms, but is the scope too wide?

We've been doing this for four months now, and no one has made us stop, so I guess it's allowed? youtu.be/7TLQAz4Udk0?...

New episode! Wondercon, something about mummies, and vigorish. youtu.be/Dx7yFzrn27k?...

New merch hit the shop today! A steal at twice the price! golive.vegas/product/from...

This week's episode went off the rails immediately, and somehow, this is still the best episode we've ever done. Good job, gang? youtu.be/UNYYqbaN9Mk

Dropped feeds, missed cues, and a special guest who forgot which show he was on? This is our Daytime Emmy, right here. They don't give those for podcasts? What the f*#k?

No regular episode this week. Producer Aron isn’t on Bluesky, so let’s blame him. We will, however, be doing a live episode from Las Vegas SuperCon this weekend, a WtFiF? After Dark Special, and @saintamish.bsky.social will be in studio for the first time ever on next week’s regular episode.

This week, the gang is joined by Brett Lawson of Gameday Huddle for the first segment, as they discuss Rob Liefeld’s beef with Disney and Marvel over perceived slights at the Deadpool Wolverine premiere. New episode drops tomorrow at 4PT/7ET

Called it! If you missed this week's episode, the gang laid out this exact scenario playing out in the coming weeks, as publishers, creators, readers, and collectors try to make sense of the new tariffs and plan ways to still enjoy their favorite geeky fandoms. comicon.com/2025/02/05/d...

TARIFFS!!! How will they affect the toys, collectibles, and comics markets? Two of the world's leading collectibles experts, Johnny Jimenez and Steve Johnston, are joined by cohosts comedian Paul Vato and @thecomicon.bsky.social's @saintamish.bsky.social to speculate. youtu.be/dJdSerm-fNI?...

Can someone please tell HHH that we need 4 front row tickets and backstage access to Wrestlemania XXXXI?

Almost all US comics are printed in Canada, and 80% of the world's toys and collectibles are manufactured in China. This week, the gang takes a look at who pays the new tariffs on these items and what impact that could have on the industry. New episode drops tomorrow at 4 PM PT/ 7 PM ET.

Prepping for this week's recording, and I realized I forgot to put last week's episode up on the Bluesky (rhymes with brewski). youtu.be/lwjnR5w1yk8?...

"What the f*#k happened to Diamond Comics Distributors?" Toy Experts Johnny Jimenez and Steve Johnston are joined by co-hosts @saintamish.bsky.social and Paul Vato and guests Chris Whitlock of Collector Archive Services and Sly Egidio of Beantown Collectibles.

Here's the "Swamp Hermit Guru" image that @saintamish.bsky.social couldn't find during yesterday's recording. Episode 7 drops today at 4 PM PT/ 7PM ET on the One of Us Comics YouTube channel. www.youtube.com/@OneofUsComics

The gang recorded an amazing episode today, with guests Chris Whitlock of CAS and Sly Egidio of Beantown Collectibles. New episodes drop Tuesdays at 4 PM PT/ 7PM ET at the One of Us Comics YouTube channel. www.youtube.com/@OneofUsComics

This tracks, unfortunately.

Oh, hey! New WtFiF? episode dropped yesterday. Toys, comics, collectibles, tamales… youtu.be/kGF3JCmtFqc?...

And with episode 5, we're up to current! A $50k Star Wars figure, FanX NOLA, Back to the Future's 40th Anniversary, and an exclusive Cable: Love and Chrome interview with @peposed.bsky.social. youtu.be/UNVF7xPHAVM?...

The new Superman trailer, Jason Momoa as Lobo, Comic-Con The Cruise (aka @saintamish.bsky.social's worst nightmare), and a leaked Hasbro Crystal Ball prototype are among the topics of the fourth episode. youtu.be/xc3YSTdnpuU?...

In episode 3, the gang gets ready for Christmas, waxing nostalgic on the surge of 90's toys on the collectibles market. @cullenbunn.bsky.social pops by to talk Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe One Last Time. youtu.be/7p9uYR2HzWI?...

Podcasting presents many challenges, which are compounded when the participants aren't all in the same city. Ep. 2 is unwatchable, due to some issues with the feed from Brendan's home in Bakersfield. As Johnny would say, you can get away with anything if you tell people you're from Bakersfield.

The episode that started it all! Johnny, Steve, Paul, and Brendan talk comics, collectibles, toys, and pop culture fandom in the inaugural installment of WtFiF? youtu.be/roeMtHqbkIg?...
