Back Through The Basement Episode 48 - Bake Sets and Mumm-Ra Back Through The Basement
-
- Comedy
“Thunder, thunder, thunder…Thundercats! Ho!!” Tom and Julee unearth some wonderful childhood treasures -- Thundercats, Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears. They also talk about the bittersweet memories of growing up and out of play: “putting the toys down” for the last time. Though, as the episode goes on, you’ll notice that the spirit of play never quite left and lives on as they go through the Basement!
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.
As their Instagram bio indicates -- @backthroughthebasementpod -- you can follow them there to see pictures of everything they unearth -- 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!
