603: Stranger Things and Holiday Gifts
Regular Joes Podcast
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...

602: Is it a Christmas Movie?
Regular Joes Podcast
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...

598: It’s "the Holiday" Auction Season
Regular Joes Podcast
As the holiday season kicks into full swing , interestingly, it is now apparently the auction season. As, in the coming weeks, a large collection of offerings from Jim Henson Studios are on the block at Julian’s. And both the Prop Store and Heritage Auctions have large entertainment memorabilia auctions, kicking off within days of each other. So if you’re looking for that last-minute gift, particularly for one of the show hosts, this is your chance to pick up a Blade Runner blaster, Rocketeer helmet or Boba Fett’s Gun. Granted, they won’t arrive in time to be under the tree, but Barry,...

597: Predatory Behavior
Regular Joes Podcast
Predator Badlands is the eighth, or ninth film if you count the animated feature, in the long running franchise. Nearly three decades after Arnold Schwarzenegger said, “Get to the chopah!” these ugly dudes just keep coming back for more. This week, Dave, who sees more merit in the Predator films than most, talked Tod, who has skipped the entire franchise since 1997, into seeing Predator Badlands. The results are somewhat surprising. So, is this series, as Tod claims, a cash grab? Trying to squeeze another dollar out of a tired property? Does the overlap with the Alien universe give it some...

596: Brendan Wayne Live at the Omni
Regular Joes Podcast
As per their annual ritual, this week the Regular Joe’s, Barry, Brian, Dave, Derryl and Tod traveled from near, and not as near, to attend the Rhode Island Comic Con., AKA The biggest con in the littlest State. And, as usual, they claimed their traditional sofa in the lobby of the lovely Omni Providence, and recorded live. They recap the show, who they saw, what they bought, and have a terrific sit down with Brendon Wayne, who, along with fellow actor Pedro Pascal, and stuntman Lateef Crowder, is the Mandalorian … of the Mandalorian. It’s a far ranging conversation with a fascinating...
info_outlineThere are many who argue that the Alien film series lost its mojo way back on LV-476.
The horror / thriller /sci-fi franchise created by Ridley Scott, and given a pulse rifle shot-in-the-arm by James Cameron, seemed like it would never regain its former glory or so we thought until last year’s Alien Romulus made us rethink that equation. Now, Noah Hawley (Legion, Fargo) brings the saga back home.
This week, the Regular Joe’s take a first look at Alien Earth, a very different approach to the Alien(s) universe.
Before that, Dave and Barry get the VIP treatment at another auction preview featuring iconic props from some of our favorite franchises.
There’s also a round of What’s in the Box and the usual random topics. Thanks for listening!
