🎙 Get Dispensed the PEZ Podcast Episode 28 - “Walking into PEZ: Ben Sindel’s 800-Dispenser Journey”
G’day PEZ Posse! I’m Greg, the Down Under PEZ Hunter, and this is Get Dispensed: The PEZ Podcast — the show where we click open stories from collectors, artists, and pop culture PEZheads around the globe.
Today’s guest is literally walking the walk. He first discovered this very podcast while strolling to work… and now he’s here telling his own PEZ story. Meet Ben Sindel — a husband, father of four, and UK-based collector whose love for PEZ spans nostalgia-filled childhood summers in Vienna, flea market treasure hunts, and a collection that’s grown from attic boxes to over 800 dispensers strong.
We chat about the thrill of the hunt, those magical first memories, selling off and rebuilding a collection, the art of storage (and family debates that come with it), and his dream PEZ pilgrimage to the Visitor Center in Connecticut. Plus, Ben takes on our Rapid Fire Round — no thinking, just clicking!
💌 Collector Callout: Ben is on the hunt for US sports team PEZ dispensers. If you can help, reach out and let’s make a PEZ dream come true!
So lace up your walking shoes, hit “play,” and join us for a sweet stroll through the colourful world of PEZ collecting.
🎧 Listen now — and keep on dispensin’!
