Appearing on ABC Radio National to talk Transformers

[BigTransformerTrev]

This coming Monday I will be appearing as a guest on ABC Radio National, on the show Life Matters, hosted by Jacinta Parsons.

My co-guest will be Dr Katriina Heljakka, a researcher in the toyification of culture, toy design and the hybrid and transgenerational dimensions of ludic practices.

Together we will discussing the culture of adult toy collectors, the different forms and mindsets adult collecting takes, and their relationship to my life’s journey as a Transformers Collector.

So tune in at 9.25am on Monday the 11th of November to ABC Radio National, or listen online at https://www.abc.net.au/listen/live/radionational

Today I was interviewed on National Radio about the ‘Kidult’ trend and my #Transformers collecting. If you would like to listen follow the link 😃

A great listen.

The question about "collection" or "play" was a good one from the interviewer.

I wonder when hearing about this in a radio medium, what are people picturing when they hear about such a large collection (and they are probably underestimating it!).

Cheers Paul 👍🏻

Yeah, that’s why at the start I tried to give a good description of the shed. But considering people who have seen photos and vids of The Transformatorium still say it doesn’t prepare them for when they see the real thing, I’m guessing a verbal description probably isn’t much chop 😋

So Trev. Any more appearences planned on your way to building your Transformers based media empire?

Well, I’ve done interviews on a few YouTube channels as well as in regional newspapers, on national tv, national radio etc.

So I dunno - magazines? But besides gardening and hunting do they even make magazines anymore? You think Better Homes & Garden’s might do a story on ‘How to spruce up your collectors shed for the coming season’? 😄

Turns out Hasbro Aus has been keeping abreast with all this media stuff going on - got a nice surprise from them in the mail yesterday 😃: https://www.bigangrytrev.com/surpris...e-from-hasbro/
