    Find out how the world's most famous water guns made a splash in the 90s with their new technology that left competitor sales dry. I talk about how Lonnie Johnson came up with the idea for the toy, how it went into production, the different models and where the toy is today.

  • 106: Did anyone get rich from Beanie Babies?
    2024/04/03

    The bean-filled animals took auction websites by storm and caused mass hysteria among collectors. Theft, divorce and bankruptcy clouded the 90s craze that was originally intended to be a children's toy, which quickly spiralled into adults racing to buy rare Beanie Babies that would allegedly make them rich.

    I talk about how Beanie Babies came to be and why so many people believed they were a great investment. I'll cover where they are now and those who sunk their entire life savings into buying thousands of the toys, hoping that the investment would one day pay for their children's college education.

    Did anybody get rich from Beanie Babies?

  • 105: Were Furbies a risk to national security?
    2024/03/27

    Furbys or Furbies? Tiger Electronics says both are correct. However you want to spell the plural of these robotic pet friends, they are the topic of this week's episode.

    The first mass-produced robot would wake children in the night, screaming its made-up language and making fart noises... It was also allegedly deemed a risk to national security by several intelligence agencies. People claimed to have taught their Furby how to talk, but could it learn from its owner?

    In this episode, we talk about the invention of a robotic pet that resembles a Chinese demon who is said to cause harm to humans.
