Funko Drops the Axe on Mondo!!
EPISODE 21 – Big news broke today that Funko did a massive layoff at Mondo and we have a lot to say about it. Ralph is joined by David from @TheVinylScore and Charlie from @filmsonwax5456. They discuss what this means for @MondoShop & @Deathwaltzrecs. 9 months ago when @OriginalFunko purchased Mondo, they said nothing was going to be changed, yet here we are with them ripping the heart out of Mondo by getting rid of the Poster Division. Can Funko be trusted ever again, or are their statements worth about as much as a landfill full of Pops!?

Customer Reviews
Excellent
This podcast is excellent. It is very nice to hear a wide range of composers from all types of different movies. Ralph, the podcaster is perfect for the podcast because he is not an expert and talks about music like a casual listener in terms everyone can understand. This podcast has introduced me to a world of music that I would not normally explore. I highly enjoy this podcast and recommend it to anyone that enjoys movie scores.
A great listen that will make to go buy scores of soundtracks.
I came to this podcast from Ralph's other show, the Dharmalars. I like this podcast even better. It's a niche show only in that you have to like good music. I recommend it even if you never knew you liked film scores before, because chances are you will after listning for a while.
But what do I know? Hook is one of my favorite movies. I will say that Ralph has never seen the Godfather at the time of my writing this, and that cost him a star because it has great music.
brilliant
this podcast is a fresh, new, and always interesting one to add to your list. i really hope that ralph keeps it up because its been great so far!!
