EP244 All This Junk

Ro gets together with fellow collector Ray (@Tresob) to talk exit strategy. What do we do with all this junk? We've all spent some time amassing our own Raiders of the Lost Ark warehouse full of collectibles, but have we learned to be more precise or disciplined in our purchases? We've spent decades buying stuff we love, but why, and what happens towards the end? A very poignant and fascinating discussion. We reference two articles that talk about just that, which we'll post below. Take a read and tell us what you think. It's a discussion where we seem to psychoanalyze each other into seeing if indeed we have a 'problem'. Hope you enjoy this discussion. ARTICLE1: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-science-willpower/201208/why-it-s-hard-let-go-clutter ARTICLE2: https://gizmodo.com/why-collecting-toys-is-like-a-heroin-addiction-5963592 And here's a link to Ray's info: https://creaturecantina.com/ Enjoy the discussion and tell us what you think. Are you a collector? Have you thought of these things? Give us your feedback on this episode. Thanks. Remember, the Scarif Scuttlebutt Podcast is a proud member of the Red5Network, and that's the scuttlebutt!
