[REVIEW] We have our reviewing hats back on, and this time it's one of those bloody awful live action movies! Sadist Virtual Dave inflicts 2018's Bumblebee upon Orion Ghia triggering his PTSD from that time he totally lost faith in the franchise... but it's not all bad! Tune in to hear the AARGH! MY OPTICS! lad's thoughts on a touching story about a teenage Smiths fan and her mute robot/car boyfriend. They laugh, they cry, they get important details completely wrong and Orion Ghia storms out of the room... it's great!

EP.3 - Toy Collecting pt. 1: What and Why?

[DISCUSSION] The first part in a series of self-indulgent discussions from the AARGH! MY OPTICS! lads on their own toy collecting habits. Virtual Dave and Orion Ghia have a long meandering chin wag about what they collect, why they collect it and the rules them impose on themselves to prevent it spiralling horribly out of control. How did a fast food giant get Dave into toy collecting toys? Why has Orion given up on The Mandalorian twice!? Why does Dave need to keep buying Power Rangers when they are all virtually the same!? Listen and find out.
