Pop one for Ukraine. Funko Pop. Wait. What did you think I meant? Plus, May the Fourth be with you and also with you. Hasbro unveils a perfectly average-sized Friggin’ Dan action figure alongside the angriest Princess Leia toy you’d ever want to see.

Get in there, you big furry oaf! I don't care what you smell. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Game over? Triple H announces his retirement from the ring, but since when has a pro wrestler ever stayed retired? Plus, where you clothes at? We investigate why there’s never been a proper Jean Grey action figure based on the X-Men animated series until now. And, impractical Joker. Matt Reeves drops a 5 minute deleted scene from The Batman featuring our first proper look at his version of The Joker. Will this clown prince of crime stick around or will his body hit the cutting room floor? Costume’s a bit theatrical, but hey, who am I to talk? It's The Reluctant Adult podcast!
