The Reluctant Adult Podcast is your weekly reminder that growing up is optional, but buying toys as an adult is mandatory. Hosts Paul and Bill tackle the weird, wonderful world of pop culture, collectibles, and childhood obsessions that somehow got more expensive with age. From action figures to comic cons, they cover it all with the enthusiasm of kids and the disposable income of adults (barely). If your idea of “adulting” is deciding whether to open the box, this show is for you. New episodes drop every week. Follow along and remember—we don’t wanna grow up, but we already did!

The penultimate episode of Andor has us asking what happened to all the squiggles? And why doesn’t the Empire employ more aliens? Plus, NECA’s AutoT figures pop up in Walmart stores. No, like the actual physical figures. How did that get there? And, Super7 shows off more Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers boxed samples at Collector Con, but are these toys meant to be opened? My powers are almost gone. It's what my dreams have been telling me. It's what I've been feeling inside. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.
