Regular Joes Podcast
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...

612: Propstore March 2026 Auction
Regular Joes Podcast
This week Barry, Dave, and Tod check out the catalog for the upcoming Prop Store Entertainment Memorabilia Auction.

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.

611: Knights, Aliens and Monsters - TV Recap
Regular Joes Podcast
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...

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.

608: Super Bowl Winners and Losers
Regular Joes Podcast
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...

607: TV Guide 2026 Edition
Regular Joes Podcast
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?...

Regular Joes Podcast
