The Reluctant Adult Podcast

Casting Call for Power Rangers, HasLab Snow Cat Hits an Icey Patch and Playmates Crawls Back From Its Shell Shock
The Power Rangers are back and this time, it’s your turn to morph. Forget teenagers with attitude, Disney’s casting for middle-aged and mediocre. Plus, Holey shit!

For a guy with a foot fetish so strong it would make Quentin Tarantino blush, McFarlane Toys really fumbled the basic shape of a dog. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Hasbro’s hoping their frosty new HasLab, the G.I. Joe Snow Cat, doesn’t put their crowdfunding hot streak on ice.

Son of a Bix. Andor left us craving and-more… but all we’re getting are these silly Jedi… [laughs in Huttese] Plus, Fortnite honors James Earl Jones with an AI Darth Vader—and the internet handles it exactly how you'd expect.
