Silly Rabbit! Trix are for kids! The poll results have been tallied and the more than sixty year-old cereal has divided the ‘Dads. They told us never to talk money or politics, but who knew cereal could be so polarizing? Discover whose taste buds didn’t appreciate the “fruity” taste of Trix.
And more tricks are in the lineup as shazbazzar and JediShua remember watching the likes of David Copperfield, Doug Henning, Lance Burton, and Harry Anderson when they were kids and give props to magical duos Penn & Teller and Siegfried & Roy. Which tricks did you enjoy? Did you have a magic kit when you were a kid? Can you still read the back of a marked deck of cards? Let us know via electronic-M to podcast@TechnoRetroDads.com.
JediShua pulls his red TONKA Jeep down out of the attic to reminisce about toy trucks. Who doesn’t think of TONKA when remembering building roads in their sandbox or pushing big metal cars and trucks around their room? With nods to Nylint and BuddyL, shazbazzar and JediShua take you on a trip down Memory Lane in the back of a green pickup truck pushed down the playground slide.
In the NEWS, Amazon Prime has a Thunderbirds reboot available now and Disney parks will eventually have an immersive Star Wars dining experience. R.I.P. Colonel Hiller from Independence Day.
So pour yourself another bowl of Trix and invite that silly rabbit to listen in with you for a tasty treat this Monday morning!
Share and Enjoy!
