Welcome back shellheads to another interview on the first TMNT podcast – What the Shell!
This time we have our first female on the show thanks to the passionate Michele Ivey. Michele was a tremendous person to talk to and had plenty of stories to share with the hosts thanks to her brilliant blog on Cowabunga Corner. Unfortunately Mike Lacey couldn’t participate in the interview but fear not as Dylan, Chris and Suine have a few questions for Michele to answer. How did she become so obsessed with TMNT? How did Michele obtain the two Turtle costume heads that she proudly owns? What is her least favourite aspect of the Turtles?

Hey shellheads, its time for another round of terrific turtle talk! This podcast is almost 3 hours long so order your pizza now!

Dylan, Chris and Mike are joined again by Suine Hallock who you may know is a huge TMNT fan with his fantastic series Radical Retro Turtle Toy Talk (www.radicalretro.com) as he helps the guys talk about the classic TMNT cartoon and try to remember the names of the episodes that they really liked!

After the break and Suine’s top 10 non turtle TMNT figures of all time (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYEP1Iu175s) audio in the commercial break, the guys are joined by Townsend Coleman who was the voice of the original Michelangelo in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  The guys quiz him about if the TMNT fans weird him out, if Michelangelo would be the voice he will be remembered for and his thoughts on the other incarnations of the turtles.

To round off this marathon show, the guys have found the leaked bios about the characters in the upcoming Nickelodeon cartoon.  They each choose two and then discuss what they like and possibly dont about the bios. These were found on the PopCultureNetwork.com Forums.
