This week Tim and Tom go to Toy Fair! But first, a frank discussion about how the subway tracks are cleaned, then it's on to Toy Fair! A place where they apparently don't give out free toys but will let you hurt yourself on a remote control skateboard if you ask them.

We also try to solve a listener problem regarding an arranged marriage!

Toy Fair

This week it's all about the shoes. Ya see, we're talking about sneakers, and we don't mean the 1992 film starring Robert Redford and Dan Aykroyd. We're talking about actual sneakers that you wear on your feet and Tom tells a story about designing his custom Nikes.

This week we’re talkin’ glasses. It turns out they’re not just for nerds anymore because now Tom needs them too. Mostly this is just an episode where Tom complains, first about the Post Office, then about the process of getting an eye exam and buying glasses. Also, Tim answers a lot of Tom’s burning questions about the ins and outs of glasses ownership. Then at the very end we talk about how everyone admirable has been dying lately and it’s really sad.
