Episode 24: Always have a plan-B

To download, "right-click" and "save link as" HERE.










Always have a back-up plan.

After a two-hour podcast recording with the team, I sat back to review the audio.

But there was a problem: There was no audio.

When I realized this, I honestly came close to knocking my computer to the floor in frustration. TWO HOURS of Podcast-Gold, lost in the ether of the internet...

The topic of discussion (which will remain a secret for now) inspired some pretty animated discussion. Some inspired points were presented, and there were quite a few unplanned moments of humor. I'd like to try to record the session again in the near future...



In the meantime, I present ep. 24 mk.2.

Still full of the magic inspired by threeA, but different. This episode features the return of a segment that was a cornerstone of the podcast: Gimbat's News.






This episode also features some discussion of a number of upcoming threeA toys, including

the AP Zombs




The Mighty Square







AP Popbot








Harold The Fucktard











This episode also features a cool Member Spotlight segment featuring Legion member Knives, creator of the song we use for the close of each episode & webmaster of a new site called Rad Toy Review. Check it out here- Rad Toy Review

Please sit back, relax, and prepare yourself for an hour of incredible discussion on Ash's history as a comic artist and designer, the origins of threeA, the upcoming film projects, and what lies in the future for threeA!

(mini) Episode 1.5- PopWar


Episode 2 will be out early this coming week, but here’s a little something to tide you over in the meantime.

This cool video was made by a filmmaker named Emmanuel Junglander.





Created in 2006 as the final project for his upper secondary school 2D animation studies, this video is an interpretation of a couple of different scenes from Ashley Wood’s Popbot series.

It really brings Ashley Wood’s world to life!

Episode 1: "Getting to know you"



It's finally DONE.

Welcome to the first episode of the ThreeARadio podcast. This podcast is a work in progress, and will eventually evolve to follow a set format, but for this first episode, I chose to give some general background on the world of ThreeA toys and to introduce some of the fans of ThreeA.
For the most part, the show is made up of general discussion of different ThreeA books & toys, prefaced by a brief history of threeA and the heart & soul of the company- Ashley Wood.

Coming soon...

This is pretty much an experiment. Many podcasts out there are 'niche-podcasts', but I'm not aware of many that are as 'niche-y' as a podcast dedicated to the toys, apparel, and art of Ashley wood.

Hell; I'm not even sure if I WANT to know about other uber-niche podcasts.

Anyway; my big toe has now been dipped into the podcasting sea. Here's hoping that there isn't a freaky undertow waiting to sweep me away....

More to come...
