PotLuck Saturday: Hobby Stores of Yesterday and Today
Podcast:Heal Squad x Maria Menounos Published On: Sat Aug 08 2026 Description: Happy Pot Luck Saturday! Hobby Lobby, Michaels, Jo-Ann Fabrics, homemade Batman costumes, and somehow... balloons and refreshments all make the conversation. We talk about the battle for the last remaining hobby stores, the disappearance of Jo-Ann Fabrics, model trains, slot cars, Shrinky Dinks, Play-Doh, paint-by-numbers never being completed, and the hobbies that kept us busy long before screens took over. We talk about Silver Spoons, Mr. Rogers, department stores we miss, toys we couldn't wait to get, and why introducing kids to the classics might be the best way to make sure they don't disappear. It's a Pot Luck Saturday with homemade Batman costumes, childhood hobbies, classic television, Danish, balloon bouquets, and the return of the refreshment table. We'll talk Shawtly!
