    It's such a blast to hear your voices fly out of my computer.

        Loved the Ben and Neal interviews, and Brian's referencing the 7 who have been to all the MegoMeet's and MegoCon. It's like naming the 7 Dwarves, except there really are 8 of us. Brian, Dave, Ron, John, Chris, Berto, Paul and Doc.

              WOW! Great Podcast! I was on the edge of my seat with the Kublan interview. Can't wait to hear more. So cool to know Phil Jackson was the inspiration for the name Action Jackson. Lots of golden nuggets in that interview. Always a joy to listen to all of these interviews. Informational on so many levels. So sad to see Ben sell off his collection. But in this economy you do what you have to do. I thoroughly enjoy the podcasts and look forward to more in the near future. A good way to start my work day with a cup of coffee and a Mego Museum Podcast. Great job Scott and Brian!
