This week, the Regular Joes along with our good friend and semi-regular co-host Brian Mix travel to Bridgeport Connecticut to visit Poster Conservation. Owner Lee Milazzo and his team of artisans conserve, restore and repair posters of all sizes and types so they look as good as they day they were printed, and will last the test of time! They can even work their magic on some posters that most people would think were beyond repair. Lee gives us a full tour of the shop and a demo of each process they use to conserve and restore these posters…including some processes that seem counter intuitive or even destructive to "old paper"; but they have mastered their techniques over the past 33 years to being these pieces of art back to life. Towards the end of the episode, Lee reveals a poster that Brian had restored by the team, and we get to see his reaction to their amazing work in real time. You won't want to miss this, even if you are not a poster nerd like Barry and Dave, I promise you will be amazed by what they can do! Thanks for watching, and listening!

In the realm of film props there are collectors, and then there was the late Bob Burns. Over the course of his lifetime, through friends, coworkers, and industry connections, Bob assembled an unparalleled cache of screen used sci-fi and horror film items. Perhaps the only thing more inspiring than the treasure trove he amassed was the kindness and generosity he and his wife Kathy showed towards folks with common interests. This week the Regular Joes recognize the life and legacy of Bob Burns through the memories of two of his many friends; Tom Spina of Regal Robot and Tom Spina Designs, and author John Michlig, who literally wrote the book on Bob. It Came from Bob's Basement. Thanks for watching, and listening!

Amaze! Amaze! Amaze! The eagerly anticipated film adaptation of Andy Weir's 2021 novel Project Hail Mary is finally in theaters. We'll cut to the chase, it's awesome. This week, Barry, Dave, and Tod, joined by Brian Mix, talk about the film, based on a book, and in some cases audiobook, they all love. If you're in no way familiar with the story there will be SPOILERS. But if that's the case, you really need to do something about that soon. And once you'll seen it, you'll know why these four Regular Joe's give the film four downturned thumbs. There's also the usual Random Topics, and a round of What's in the Box.

This week, The Regular Joe's take a last look at the first season of the newest Star Trek spinoff series, Starfleet Academy. Dismissed by many as part of NU Trek "(aka not my Star Trek) Academy presents a starting point for new viewers as well as new cadets. Is it perfect? No, it is not. But there's enough good there to be hopeful for the future. And isn't that what Star Trek is supposed to be about? Firefly, another canceled before it peaked sci-fi series, hopes to return in animated form. While this is not exactly the news everyone was hoping for, any chance to get this particular band back together is welcome. There's also the usual random topics in a Round of What's in the box. Thanks for listening, or watching … no pressure.

This week Barry, Dave, and Tod check out the catalog for the upcoming Prop Store Entertainment Memorabilia Auction. There are a lot of familiar offerings, but also several new things worth taking out a second mortgage for, like C-3PO's head, a legendary broken sword, or maybe fishing gear from the worst fishing trip ever. Even if you're not laying down big money, it's fun to play. What if … There's also the usual random topics, including speculation on the Firefly announcement we will be hearing about very soon. And as they continue to acknowledge the 60th anniversary of Star Trek, one host seems to be weakening on his life long The Motion Picture position. Thanks for watching, and listening!

This week, the Regular Joes talk about three very different TV series. Pluribus is a surprise hit for Apple, though it really shouldn't be. Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan knows how to tell a compelling story. This time he takes the alien body snatcher trope and goes places you would never expect. Just when you thought another trip to Westeros would be more of the same HBO serves up a Knight of Seven Kingdoms. Much more about impalement, then backstabbing, Knight gives us a character piece that does not require a chart or spreadsheet to follow. While the first two shows are unexpected surprises Monarch: Legacy of the Monsters back for a second season on Apple is not. With one episode to date it's everything we loved … plus Kong. There's also a round of What's in the Box and the usual random topics. Thanks for watching and listening!

Alex also reflects on his interactions with notable figures like John Rhys-Davies and the impact of Indiana Jones on his life. Alex, Dave, Barry and Tod also share some of their favorite Indiana Jones collectibles in a round of Show and Tell. Thanks for watching, and listening!

This week Brian Mix joins Barry, Dave, and Tod to formally announce the Kickstarter effort to provide a home for the Shuttlecraft Galileo at the Official Star Trek Set Tour in Ticonderoga, New York. The Galileo has endured a long, and often perilous, journey in the decades since The Original Series ended its three year run. There is no one better equipped to tell that story than Adam Schneider, who purchased the largest surviving original Star Trek series prop in 2012 and painstakingly restored it to its former glory. Adam's personal fleet of Star Trek production models includes some of the most iconic starships from the series … oh, and he has the Genesis Device. It's an interview Trek fans won't want to miss.

This week, the Regular Joe's play Monday evening quarterback, providing color commentary on the big sports-ball matchup from this past weekend. Who won and who lost. Did Pepsi score by co-opting polar bears from their competitor Coca-Cola? Did callbacks to 90's hits Jurassic Park and Good Will Hunting work for Xfinity and Dunkin' Donuts? There were a whole lot of AI ads for companies whose names you've already forgotten, more big names than you can count, and more money spent than seems even remotely reasonable. Does it matter? One expert says no. There's also round of What's in the Box, and What's on my Workbench for some project updates and tool tips. Thanks for watching and listening!

This week the Regular Joes talk TV. Which may not seem all that unusual, but it has been a while since they did a rundown of all the new and returning series in the pipeline for the coming months. And there is a lot of them. From returning favorites like The Boys, For All Mankind and Daredevil: Born Again, to intriguing new offerings like Lanterns, Young Sherlock, and Wonder Man. Speaking of Wonder Man, there is also a brief, mostly spoiler free, discussion of this unconventional new Marvel/Disney+ series which Dave somehow only managed to watch two episodes of. What's with that? The man can knock out three Disney parks in a day, and he can't commit to four hours of a TV series? There's also the usual Random Topics at a round of What's in the Box.

Model Maker and Concept Artist John Eaves has made a huge mark on the Star Trek franchise, as well as many other universes including The MCU. This week John sits down with the Regular Joes Barry, Dave and Tod, plus Irregular Joe Brian Mix, to discuss how he got started, his long career, and the stuff he collects himself. It's a great peek behind the curtain at all the things we love with the man who designed one USS Enterprise, and reimagined two others. How cool is that! Thanks for watching and listening!

Starfleet Academy is a concept that's been kicking around for decades, but has never quite gotten off the launchpad. At long last it's here. But is this the show Trek fans want? Set in the far-future, or is it the future of the future? Starfleet Academy picks up the post Discovery timeline to go WHEN no one has gone before. The Regular Joe's sum up their thoughts two episodes in. Along with Random Topics, Barry, Dave and Tod also reflect on the end of an era for Star Wars as the door closes behind Kathleen Kennedy.

On this episode the Regular Joe's Dave, Barry and Tod are joined by the irregular Joes, Brian Mix and Derryl DePriest for their annual year in review show. With cocktails in hand, the gang of Joes cover the greatest hits and the biggest misses from the past year. There are surprises, and some familiar favorites, as they review the movies TV, series, events, acquisitions and happenings that punctuate 2025 as it fades in the past like a forgotten memory.

It's time once again for the Regular Joe's holiday gift exchange. Basically three of the hardest people on the planet to buy for swap gifts. What could go wrong? But first, Derryl and Brian join Barry, Dave and Tod to share their thoughts on nearly 10 years and five seasons of Netflix supernatural phenomenon Stranger Things. Who would've believed back when the first season aired that the most improbable thing in the final episodes would be that these actors are still supposed to be in high school. Some will nitpick, some will second guess, but the Duffer brothers took us on a hell of a ride. Thanks for watching, and listening!

This week Barry Dave and Tod explore the question, what is a Christmas Movie? While all right minded folks agree Die hard is every bit as much a holiday staple as say, It's a Wonderful Life, or Elf, some go to extreme lengths to squeeze any film with a Christmas tree into the mix. Seriously, who lights the fireplace, pours an eggnog and cues up Eyes Wide Shut? The hosts define their personal guidelines, and delve into their favorite "real" Christmas movies, and ultimately, songs. They also work in a round of Whats in the Box, and acknowledge the passing, and legacies, of Gil Girard and Bob Burns. Thanks for listening and Happy holidays!
