Plastic Posse Podcast

It's all 6 of us together again, and we wish all of you a Happy Holiday season with a MEGA episode for Christmas! We wish you all a Happy Holiday season, and as this is our last episode for a few weeks, we thought we would leave you with a big one to chew on for a while.
We are joined for not one, but two feature interview segments. Our first segment is with Clayton Ockerby from Workbench Hobbies and the Modeling News. Clayton's new Workbench Hobbies channel on YouTube is fantastic, and we highly recommend it - if you haven't seen any of his videos yet - go visit and give Clayton a like and subscribe. Let's help him get to his goal of 10K subscribers!
Our second interview is with Mr. Stephen Lee from Sprue Pies with Frets, a fantastic scale modeling centric blog. Stephen recently penned a forward looking article about Scale Modeling Organizations, and he references some recent challenges that IPMS USA has been facing. Most importantly, Stephen utilizes his background in Non-Profits as well as the Military to propose some principles that could help IPMS and other Scale Modeling organizations look to the future.
TJ leads us in 2 different discussions about 2023 in Review, and the challenges you may encounter when building a model to photos or references. We also have a great time and do a little laughing along the way. We hope you will join us at your bench, in the car, or while exercising for some fun, and some discussions about the hobby we all love!

Mental Health and Scale Modeling, plus Jon Bius!
Jon Bius joins us for a great conversation about Science Fiction modeling, his journey to becoming a Youtuber, and the culture of scale modeling.
We discuss our regular updates and go over listener feedback, as well as A TON of Hobby Shop Shout outs. MAJOR shout out to the Posse! We also have Chris Bumgarner from Wrightcon, usually an in-person IPMS model show and contest, but this year it is 100% virtual. Everyone can participate - so check out the details!
The MAIN theme of Episode 5 is Mental Health and the hobby. All of us have had a very tough go in 2020, and we wanted to make sure we addressed it - we all need to know it's OK to be down once in a while, we should talk about our challenges, and also we should check on our friends and family to make sure they are OK.
We hope you will join us in letting everyone in your individual circles know you care about them, and that we are all here for each other. Here are some places you can go if you need to talk to someone or know someone who needs help when they are down:
The Trevor Project for LGBTQ+ Youths Crisis line 1-866-488-7386 or https://www.thetrevorproject.org
National Suicide Prevention Hotline 1-800-273-8255
For text help https://www.crisistextline.org/ with service in most areas
NAMI National Awareness of Mental Illness Crisis Line 1-800-273-8255
https://www.bethe1to.com/bethe1to-ste... If you know someone who is hurting.
We call on our listeners to check out this very important video from Health Aldridge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htLjaECtjAw&t=25s
