0:00 – 0:34 – Introduction and theme.
0:35 – 5:04 – We spend the first five minutes talking about a movie about toys that WASN’T the one we watched, released more than a decade ago.
5:05 – 11:14 – We make a brief feint at discussing Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium, but quickly get sidetracked by Willy Wonka and old-time character actors.
11:15 – 35:41 – We finally manage to focus on the topic at hand, the horrifying tale of a sentient toy store and its insane inhabitants. What’s that? It’s a kids’ film? …You sure?
35:42 – 40:05 – Final judgments.
40:06 – 44:10 – Copyright infringement, listener mail, and discussion of nude Lea Thompson.
