  11. Episode 446: Triple Play

    Episode 567

    Show notes

    If you were lucky enough to have some Joe toys and a couple of friends over there was inevitably a moment where you selected your vehicle for the mission and headed out. But what section did you gravitate towards? Did you like to be at the wheel, dictating where you went? Or was your preference to operate the biggest gun? Or better yet, did you wish to man the command section with its myriad of screens and communication/detection equipment?

    Steve is joined by special guests Bart and Cody for a chat about the coolest sets and where they're crewing them.
