To kick off the Holiday Shopping Season, Dan & Manny put 6 classic T.V. Toy Commercials (Pogo Bal, Skip It, Lite Brite, Crossfire, My Buddy & Kid Sister, and The Animal)to the ultimate test--THE NOSTALGIA TEST. This is an eye-opening episode into the world of 80s & 90s toys. Dan & Manny try to figure out why anyone would ever buy or play with the Pogo Bal, they come up with an amazing reboot idea for Skip It, and they discuss the dystopic world of Crossfire.

They also discuss: 

• Is it Pogo Bal or Pago Bal? 
• There's no way anyone could actually bounce on the Pogo Bal.
• Manny tells us the Skip It fairytale. 
• How much Manny hates Hungry Hungry Hippos. 
• Does the Crossfire commercial take place in Mortal Kombat?
• Lite Brite is a scam!
• The Animal is the worse toy ever in existence. 

And much much more!
