In the '90s and early 2000s, Ireland was swept up in the global trend of collectible items—from toys and trading cards to those memorable cereal box giveaways. Whether it was Pez dispensers, Pogs, McDonald’s Happy Meal toys, or Beanie Babies, these items were part of what made our childhoods unforgettable. And in today’s interview episode, we’re diving deep into the culture of these collectibles, exploring how they shaped our memories, and reflecting on the pop culture that surrounded them.
Sinead, who has spent nearly 15 years in the media industry, knows exactly what it's like to grow up in a time where every piece of memorabilia seemed to hold a special place.
