Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes Podcast558: Ventures and AdventuresThis week, the Regular Joe’s catch up each other on what they’ve been doing the last few weeks. Inspired by the recent 55 films episodes Tod has decided to rewatch classic films in their original unadulterated format to kick this off he recently went to see King Kong (1933) on the big screen in a theater where it originally played when released. Dave, long the master of custom-made displays and plaques has started a business … wait for it, making and selling custom-made displays and plaques. Did you recently pick up a pair of old ruby slippers that you really want to show...2025-01-311h 09Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes Podcast554: A Regular Joes Christmas 2024This week, Barry, Dave and Tod, reputedly the three hardest people in the known universe to buy for, exchange Christmas gifts. This may seem like an exercise in futility, but it has become tradition. On the whole this was a good year. Barry didn’t buy himself anything a week before the gift exchange, Dave didn’t already have everything, and Tod grudgingly accepted that he has gone up a tee shirt size. Thanks for listening, and have a Happy New Year!2025-01-0341 minRegular Joes PodcastRegular Joes Podcast539: 60’s Sci Fi Double FeatureThis week Barry, Brian, Dave and Tod take a look at two films nearly old enough to collect Social Security. Robinson Crusoe on Mars (1964) is an often mentioned childhood favorite of Dave’s which claims to be “Scientifically Authentic.” Which might be credible had the film been made in 1864. On the plus side, it has Adam West (briefly) and a monkey in a space suit, so how bad can it be? An automated distress beacon draws an unsuspecting ship to a barren planet. The crew find a derelict spacecraft once piloted by gigantic beings. And ultimately fall prey to creatures seekin...2024-09-131h 13Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEp 520: DISCO Fever !!!Star Trek: Discovery is back and the reviews are in. “It’s so much better than Strange New Worlds.“ - Tod  “This could make me forget about sex and pizza.” - Dave “Who needs Star Wars, give me more Disco!” - Barry.  Wait … sorry. April Fool’s was Last week. Star Trek: Discovery is back. And it’s the final season … so that’s something. Now that Dave and the rest of the world is caught up, the Joes wrap up 3 Body Problem, Netflix concise adaptation of Liu Cixin’s novel Three Body Problem. The only question that remains is, will we have to wait 400 yea...2024-04-121h 10Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEp 503: Be Kind, Please Rewind: The 1990’sPrompted by Dave’s recent observation about the scarcity of good sci-fi / fantasy / action / adventure genre films from the 1990’s the Regular Joes dive into the last decade of the last millennium. And while the 1990’s does not holdup to the decade immediately prior, there are a good many films from a wide range of genres that are worth a second look. Though opinions vary on several titles, it is clear the 1990’s yielded a few gems. One of the best sequels ever in Terminator 2 Judgement Day 1991. An original Sci Fi offering, in Matrix 1999, whose magic proved impossible to recapture. And a gr...2023-12-011h 20Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes Podcast464: Bizarro World?This week’s episode was recorded in an alternate reality where Tod doesn’t watch the entire season of a TV show before Barry and Dave get through the pilot episode. First up is Paper Girls from Amazon Prime, which is based on a comic by Brian K. Vaughan, that (again alternate reality) Tod has never read. Next is Kaleidoscope, from Netflix, the Giancarlo Esposito led ensemble heist drama that breaks conventions as well as vaults. More of a heads up than spoiler, you want to watch the “White” episode last. In other weirdness, Barry gives a thumbs down on Willow t...2023-01-271h 01Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes Podcast463: Barry and Dave’s Excellent AdventureThis week, Barry and Dave return from vacation and catch Tod up on everything he missed. Which, based on the rundown of the itinerary from their week in Orlando, was a lot. We all know Dave hits the parks with a plan that makes the D-Day invasion look like an afterthought, and this outing was true to form. Find out what they saw, and, more importantly, bought at Disney, Universal and elsewhere. As well as details of Barry’s long delayed Rise of the Resistance experience(s). Yes, there is finally balance in the force. After that they catch up on...2023-01-201h 17Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 419: ExtempormaniaDo you know those episodes where the Regular Joe’s make lists and spreadsheets and plan the heck out of everything they do? This is not one of those episodes. As Barry, Dave and Tod like to do from time to time (when they don’t really have another plan) this week they just turned on the microphones and recorded whatever came to mind. At times it’s like one long Random Topics segment. At others they go down rabbit holes such as trying to convince Tod that Iron Man II really isn’t all that bad. Note. Tod and Dave wer...2022-01-281h 30Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 403: Dubious, Indifferent or BarryAfter what seems like a long drought of TV shows and Movies to get excited for, several trailers and teasers have dropped giving even the most cynical of us (Dave) cause for hope. First up there’s Star Trek, lots and lots of Star Trek. The franchise that CBS (now Paramount+) built their streaming platform on the back of is back with more iterations than most of us ever imagined. Lower Decks continues, Discovery is cued up for season 4, Picard returns to tried and true formulas, Prodigy . . . well, so far no one cares. Then there is Star Trek: Strange New Wo...2021-09-171h 05Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 396: Summer of StreamingAs we move in into a summer that seems to alternate between extremes of very hot and very wet, the Regular Joes catch up on their recommendations for what to watch if you are stuck inside. To the surprise of no one who listens, Tod recommends Evil, formerly on CBS now “the best reason to have Paramount Plus.” Dave makes a pitch for Bosch in it seventh season on Amazon Prime. And Barry gives un update on the Bad Batch on Disney Plus. They also discuss (mostly spoiler free) a pair of films that two of them have recently seen. The...2021-07-091h 07Tee Party PodcastTee Party PodcastEpisode 56 - Dave HerreraDave Herrera joins Ty this week to share his BRAND NEW single Visiting Nashville and tell the story about what inspired this song about the Music City.

First up Barry drinks the Kool Aid with HBO’s The Vow, a nine part documentary series that looks into the NXIVM cult that drew in many including several familiar actors. Next Dave heads to Mars with Hilary Swank in the Netflix series Away. If there’s a target demographic for this most recent space program drama it really should include Dave ... but does it? Lastly Tod goes even further into the cosmos with a pair...2020-09-251h 08Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 352: The Boys are Back in Town ... AgainOne of the Joes favorite shows from last year, Amazon Prime’s The Boys, the dark, and often just wrong, adaptation of the Garth Ennis comic about Superhero’s as corporate created and controlled celebrities is back for its sophomore season. For this week’s podcast Tod forced Barry and Dave to watch THREE ENTIRE EPISODES. Curiously, Amazon’s decision to drop the first three episodes at launch and then serve up the remaining shows weekly has generated more buzz than the series. Which is amazing given that one episode depicts the killing of an endangered species as a sight gag. Go...2020-09-111h 12Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 348: Pizza, Sex and Star TrekIt’s a sort of “catch up“ week for the Regular Joe’s. Last week the episode was postponed due to a 5 day long power outage for one of the hosts. On the plus side Dave is now able to personally recommend a 4500 lbs (approx. curb weight) battery charger. And, since packages have been stacking up, they catch up on What’s in the Box, throw in some RJ Picks, and even a  round of What’s on my Workbench. Last week CBS All Access streamed the first animated Star Trek episode since 1974. Was Lower Decks worth the wait? Opinions vary ... wide...2020-08-141h 13Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 347: The Trouble with TrimblesStar Trek has been around long enough to be a legitimate topic of historical study.  While names Like Roddenberry, Shatner, and Nimoy immediately come to mind, the show’s unique position within the cultural zeitgeist would not have been possible without less often cited contributions from names like Fontana, Jefferies and yes,  Trimble. On this weeks’ episode Barry, Dave and Tod, joined by Brian Mix, sit down with Bjo and John Trimble, commonly recognized as “the couple who saved Star Trek.” The Joes get the Trimble’s personal perspective on how they came to know Gene Roddenberry, how they went on to mount...2020-07-311h 31Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 344: Joes and Bros - July EditionWith everything that’s going on and everything that’s not, sometimes it’s nice to just have some time to kick back and hang out with your friends. This was one of those weeks. Joined by Derryl DePriest, and Brian Mix, Barry, Dave and Tod cover a wide range of topics from the genius of the late Carl Reiner, the glacial pace vs. the conceptual brilliance of 2001 a Space Odyssey, and why Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. picked now to finally get so damned good. On the Final Frontier ... er, front, Dave makes the trek to the ju...2020-07-101h 37Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 338: Magnificent SevenFor seven years Barry, Dave and Tod have been getting together, more or less, each week to record the Regular Joes Podcast. This week is whole lot like the other 337. They start with a plan, and then get somewhat sidetracked during random topics. Next they get caught up on current projects with What’s on My Workbench. Then, on Barry’s recommendation everyone checked out Amazon Prime’s Upload. Ok, so if you have been paying attention you know Barry tends to grade things on a curve. So how does this particular suggestion hold up? Lastly there a round of What’s...2020-05-221h 09Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 330: Creepy Clowns vs. Killer RobotsThis week the Regular Joes take a look at the first episodes of three very different series airing right now. First up is season Eight of Showtime’s Homeland. Is it worth returning “home” if you, like so many, dropped the long running spy thriller after, or during the abysmal 6th season? Then we move on to the oddly close to home reality of Epix War of The Worlds (not to be confused with (The War of The Worlds.) does this British/French updating of H.G. Wells most adapted story do a better job than it’s immediate predecessor? An hour...2020-03-271h 10Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 326: Make it ... SlowAfter a brief hiatus the Regular Joe’s are back in the saddle. At the mid-season point in the long anticipated Star Trek: Picard, the Joe’s check in on what they think of the series so far. Clearly much has changed in the decades since ST: The Next Generation ended it seven year syndicated mission. Both the Star Trek universe and how television shows are created and presented have evolved in that time. Will Picard bold go, and find success, in this new and uncertain storytelling frontier, or will it be forever linked to the past? Also, a few mont...2020-02-281h 04Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 325: Sunday Morning TalkDave is taking to the road and Barry’s house is in the throughs of reconstruction so the Regular Joes recorded this week’s episode earlier on Sunday morning then Tod usually gets up. What ends up coming together is a pretty free flowing discussion about the nature of films today. Which seems appropriate given that it’s recorded on the day the Academy Awards are handed out. What does winning an Oscar really mean for an actor or filmmaker? And, in an era where seemingly every property with the slightest hint of nostalgia has been revisited or reimagined is there...2020-02-1457 minRegular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 321: At Some Point ... in a Galaxy Far Far AwayAs the dust settles on The Rise of Skywalker (1 billion dollars worth of dust that is) Barry, Dave and Tod are joined by Regular Joe Derryl DePriest to ponder the question, where does the Star Wars cinematic universe go from here. With the last three films either under preforming, or garnering mixed receptions among critics and and an increasing fractured fan base - what is the path forward? Or is it backward? Should Disney, ”let the past die”? and start from a clean slate? Opinions vary. But it makes for a lively discussion. In this bonus length episode we also work...2020-01-171h 33Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 312: I Have SpokenThis week the year’s most eagerly awaited Star Wars offering premiered. Or at least the most eagerly awaited . . . until next month. The Mandalorian is both the highest profile original content on Disney’s shiny new streaming service and the first live action Star Wars created for the small screen since the infamous 1978 Christmas special. SPOILER, it is MUCH better than the Christmas special. While the Regular Joes have been critical, to various degrees, of the Star Wars efforts since the Empire (the Disney Empire) took over that particular universe this could be the one thing that they all agree upon...2019-11-151h 05Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 310: If You Take The Fur Off It’s All MeatOne week after an encouraging final trailer for The Rise of Skywalker the Disney+ folks drop a last preview of the soon to released streaming series The Mandalorian.  Which, the Regular Joes unanimously agree, looks freakin awesome. Over in the Star Trek universe the Trouble with Edward, the most recent Short Treks installment, demonstrates that a) Trek can be funny as long as you are not hung up on canon ... and b) Tribbles are good eatin. DC’s streaming series Titans is great. Their choice to play Bruce Wayne, the otherwise capable Ian Glen, not so much. Find who the Joe...2019-11-011h 06Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 308: Not Your Mother’s Nancy DrewThere is an informative, in depth and well made documentary on the making of Alien (1979) it just doesn’t happen to be Memory: The Origins of Alien which they all watched this week. If you can find a copy of The Beast Within: The Making of Alien you should watch that one. While they’re on a roll they take on two new CW fall series, Batwoman and Nancy Drew. Since Tod is reputed to automatically like anything based on a comic book, and Dave is predisposed to like pretty much anything with an attractive female lead, logic would dictate they...2019-10-181h 14Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 307: I Really Like That Comic ConLast week Barry, Dave, Tod and more than 150,000 total strangers met up for the annual New York Comic Con. They saw a dizzying array of stuff, celebrities, and yes, even a few comics. Along the way the got to meet  the legendary Rick Baker and step on board the Rocinante from The Expanse. They also stood in unreasonably long lines to get bad hotdogs and take a pee. But that’s all part of the NYCC experience.  Among the many interesting trailers which dropped last weekend were the Expanse season 4, Star Trek Discovery season 3, Lost in Space Season 2 and the prem...2019-10-111h 15Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 305: Holy ... Grail, BatmanBarry was out of Town and Tod managed to break himself, but they still found time to squeeze out an episode ... eventually. This week the Regular Joes feast their coveting eyes on the Prop Store Entertainment Memorabilia Treasures from Film and Television Auction catalog.

Find out whether their experience lives up the the hype, or at least, their expectations. What did they see, what did they try, and what did they buy, or... acquire through “other means.” Meanwhile, back in New England Tod had the chance to experience a Star Wars related cultural event of another sort altogether. Oh, right, and there’s also the usual Random Topics. Check out the Bar...2019-09-061h 17Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 298: It Was 20 Years Ago Today...Barry, Dave, Derryl and Tod the four Regular Joes sit down together (in four separate locations) on the twentieth anniversary of the day they all met. After some fond reflections of decades past they get down to business taking a first look at Amazon’s Prime Video’s mid-summer hit, The Boys. While they do their best to keep their comments SPOILER FREE it’s clear why this dark take on a world where superheroes have made a big, if not necessarily positive, impact is generating a lot of buzz. With decades of comics to draw from, A Watchman series coming...2019-08-021h 32Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 290: Now, With Even More MuftakFor this week’s Episode, Barry, Dave and Tod traveled to the ultra-secret undisclosed location of the Regal Robot / Tom Spina Designs studios (which Tod could not find even with a GPS) to see some amazingly cool stuff they can’t talk about and spend quality time hanging out with maker / props-smiths Tom Spina, Gordon Tarpley and David Woodruff. Inevitably, there is lots of Star Wars talk, which is impossible to avoid when you’re sitting in a room with a life-size, and disturbingly hairless, Chewbacca mannequin, but also Batman and even the odd Star Trek reference. It’s a wide ran...2019-06-071h 23Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 286: Game . . . EndingThe game is on! No, not Avengers Endgame. It’s Game of Thrones. The long-awaited final season of the water cooler obsession is here. And, now that Dave has finally caught up, we dig into the characters and conflicts that make HBO’s hugely successful fantasy offering so good. It’s a season like no other on a show like none other and it all ends so very soon. But first we take a look at Disney’s preliminary schedule of yet to be identified franchise blockbusters, ponder the notion of an oncoming Avatar wave, and note the sad passing of Star...2019-05-101h 03Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 283: In a Hotel Lobby Far, Far AwayIt’s Celebration time when the Star Wars faithful from around the Galaxy gather to ... er, celebrate the franchise they hold near and dear. Also, this time Tod goes too. Hear the Joes reaction to the teaser/trailer for Ep 9 The Rise of Skywalker. Was it enough to get Dave optimistic again? They also got a first look at the Mandalorian. SPOILER it’s gonna be Awesome!.  But before they get to all that Barry, Dave, Tod and Derryl sit down with Tom Spina of Regal Robot, and maker, cosplayer and all-around cool dude Gordon Tarpley to talk about their amazi...2019-04-192h 01Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 282: Happy Bat-iversary!The Caped Crusader is 80. Whether your personal Batman is the 1960’ Bat-Zooka wielding crime stopper, the 1989 Neo-Noir interpretation, or Christopher Nolan’s breathy voiced urban legend, everyone seems to have a favorite. In this ep the Regular Joes weigh in, saluting Bob Kane and Bill Finger’s enduring creation, and citing their preferred incarnation, and of course their go to choice of Batmobile. For those of you scoring your “Dave’s List” Bingo Card this ep references both Tim Burton and Maggie Gyllenhaal.

Sounds like the formula for every episode of the Regular Joes Podcast, right? Believe it or not there is usually some sort of plan. In this ep there is no plan, no theme, not even any segments. We just turn the mics and record. Did it work? That’s really up to you to decide. Warning: there may be spoilers about two-year-old episodes of The Americans and Last week’s episode of Discovery. And, in a shocking turn, Tod And Dave reveal they don’t like The Last Jedi. So, ye...2019-03-021h 01Regular Joes PodcastRegular Joes PodcastEpisode 272: Re-DiscoveryDiscovery is back. So yeah, we talk a lot about that. Not everyone loved the first season, and the Joes get into the ways season 2 dials into what some may have thought was missing. Tod it seems has a man crush on the new Capt. Pike (Anson Mount), but this is made less awkward by Dave once again extolling the many virtues of Tom Cruise. We add a new segment, my Favorite Things where the Joes, and Julie Andrews, pick the things they like best at the moment.
