  • 618: Men in Red and Black
    May 14 2026

    This week, the Regular Joe's take a look at two Disney+ series about men in red and black. Or one guy who wears red and black, and another who is red and black.

    Maul Shadow Lord, we're not supposed to call him Darth Maul anymore, gives further dimension to a Star Wars character most thought was out of the picture 27 years ago. Who knew getting bisected isn't necessarily fatal. Shadow Lord is an animated series that is clearly not for kids, but it's also clearly awesome.

    Daredevil Born Again's sophomore season more than corrected the numerous shortcomings of the first. It's been extremely well received by critics and fans alike, giving viewers a whole lot more of what they were looking for - unless like Barry and Dave you're looking for something a little different.

    There's also a rare What's on my Workbench update, and the usual random topics.

  • 618: What is the Future of Star Trek?
    May 1 2026

    In its 60th year the future of Star Trek is very much uncertain. What is known is that, on July 23rd a new season of Strange New Worlds will launch.

    The Regular Joes breakdown the just released trailer, and share their hopes and expectations for the penultimate season.

    This past weekend Barry and Dave checked out Chiller Theater Expo in New Jersey, and they share who they saw, and what they found there.

    There's also a round of What's in the Box and the usual Random Topics.

  • 616: Poster Conservation with Lee Milazzo
    Apr 17 2026

    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!

  • 615: Remembering Legendary Collector Bob Burns
    Apr 3 2026

    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!

  • 614: Project Hail Mary
    Mar 27 2026

    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.

  • 613: Firefly and Starfleet Academy
    Mar 20 2026

    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.

  • 612: Propstore March 2026 Auction
    Mar 13 2026

    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!
