Back Through The Basement Episode 67 - Playmobil and Marked 'Fragile'

What conversation could possibly encompass extremely sentimental movie theme songs, the 1978 ‘Superman’ Kryptonian costume design style, Mark Twain, Puck from ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’, ‘The Flight of the Bumblebees’ by Rimsky-Korsakov, Technotronic’s ‘Pump Up the Jam’, Christmas mornings, and a baby’s first blanket?  Oh yes, and everpresent childhood toys as well!!  Why “Back Through The Basement”’s Episode 67, of course!!  Delay no further!! Hit play and enjoy Tom Antonellis and Julee Antonellis in “Playmobil and Marked ‘Fragile’”! 
 
Now in their forties, Julee and Tom Antonellis are reconnecting as brother and sister in THE MOST distant a socially-distant podcast can be in the United States.  While recording on each coast (and seeing each other over FaceTime) all the way from Los Angeles (Tom) to Boston (Julee), they start unearthing the core lessons, laughs and connections of their childhood.  Plus, Julee has to fight her fear of cobwebs while Tom enjoys the comfort of his office -- yet he CAN'T touch his beloved toys like she can.

On their Instagram for this Voice Arts Awards-nominated podcast, [ @backthroughthebasementpod ] you can follow along to see pictures of everything they unearth.  As the bio there indicates: Tom & Julee (actors, comics, voiceover artists & siblings), children of the 80s, must go through all their toys and belongings in their parents’ basement. Oh boy!
