I Ya Toyah is a Chicago-based DIY one woman army of Polish descent that blends chaos and balance with the familiar vibe of industrial electronica sound. Her music melds smooth, cutting edge vocals, surreal guitars, hypnotizing beats, and multiple electronic synth elements into dark arrangements that, combined with storytelling lyrics, respond to the paranoia of everyday reality.
Listen in as Dave and I Ya Toyah talk about life, music, and hard work on the newest episode of the Needless Things Podcast!

Recorded LIVE in the Bungalow of Eternal Sorrows, the Needless Things Irregulars gathered to review the final installment of the Skywalker Saga!
Beginning in 1999 with young Anakin Skywalker in The Phantom Menace, continuing in 1977’s Star Wars, and now ending in 2019 with Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, the Saga has been a long, uneven journey. Writer Chris Terrio and writer/director JJ Abrams had a difficult task ahead of them in resolving forty-two years of storytelling from many different creators. Did they succeed or will we be looking at 1983’s Return of the Jedi as the true conclusion of this tale?
Listen in as Dave, Arian, Chad J. Shonk, and Head of Research Ryan Schweck analyze the biggest pop culture ending of their lifetimes on the newest episode of the Needless Things Podcast!

Dave and Head of Research Ryan Schweck dive into everything that’s happened in the world of Star Wars toys since Triple Force Friday, as well as sharing some thoughts on The Mandalorian!
October 4th, 2019 was the launch date for the newest barrage of Star Wars merchandise, only this time Disney was tying their products into not just one, not two, but three new media projects.
The first, obviously, was December 20th’s Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker. This is the latest cinematic Star Wars release and the conclusion of the so-called “Skywalker Saga” that began with Star Wars in 1977.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a new video game from publisher Electronic Arts. It was released on November 15th, 2019 and so far has seen a positive reception.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, after decades of speculation and false starts, the first-ever live action Star Wars show debuted on the Disney+ streaming service on November 12th.
Each of these landmarks in the era of Disney Star Wars has waves of merchandise currently available. Starting with the main rollout in October and followed by seemingly weekly additions by way of exclusives and new reveals, Hasbro, Funko, and many other manufacturers have flooded the market with new and exciting products.
PLUS! A very special Christmas memory from Dave's Mom!
Listen in as Ryan and Dave take a close look at the last two months of Star Wars on the newest episode of the Needless Things Podcast!
