Peter and the Magic Egg

<p>🐰 It’s 1983, and despite replacing our entire body with robot parts, we still can’t plow faster than a rapidly growing magic forest baby. Join us as we get things rolling with the mascots of Paas Easter egg coloring kits in a secret hit piece on landlords disguised as a wacky Easter story. On the way, we’ll meet the ever-looming shadow of the Easter Bunny and teach animals to talk by giving them clothes.  </p><p>****  </p><h2>🎙 Guests:  </h2><p>Sammy Hain (<a href="https://twitter.com/sammyhain">@SammyHain</a>).  </p><p>Chad Young (<a href="https://www.horrormoviebbq.com/">The Horror Movie BBQ</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/tpifpod">TPIF: Thank Pod It’s Funny</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/horrormoviebbq">@horrormoviebbq</a>).  </p><p>****  </p><h2>💬 Topics & Tangents:  </h2><p>1. <a href="https://www.paaseastereggs.com/about-us/">The History of Paas</a>.  </p><p>2. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8HR1ErKmO8">Patton Oswalt on Paas</a> and its short-lived competitors.  </p><p>3.
