Regular Joes Podcast

For years the Regular Joes have been talking about prop auctions. This week all three of them finally stepped up and bid on a piece of Star Trek history. Find out what they bought and what Dave should have bought. Long before Game of Thrones George R. R. Martin wrote the Science fiction Novella Nightflyers. First adapted as film in 1987, Nightflyers is back as limited series on SYFY. Does it live...

The Walking Dead has slowly shuffled its way to the season nine mid-season finale. Does anyone still care? Viewership is way down, Tod just quit . . . again, and Dave never went back. What happened to this once must-see show? But first we catch up on Random Topics including, inevitably, another pass at The Last Jedi which, Barry now concedes has flaws (which he is willing to overlook), and Adam Sa...

After taking a week off, the Regular Joes are back just in time for Thanksgiving and Black Friday…on this weeks show, Dave, Barry and Tod start off with their usual round of random topics and then they discuss the passing of comic legend and pop-culture icon Stan Lee.

Sabrina has been a "Teenage" Witch since 1962 ... and you thought your teen years were rough. This week the Regular Joes check out Netflix The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, the most recent, and creepy, adaptation of Archie's spell slinging classmate. Despite Dave thinking Melissa Joan Hart is cuter, the crew are unusually in sync. Barry has a dilemma and Tod and Dave weigh in on, of course, diam...

In a dark alley a stick wielding masked vigilante brutally dispatches a handful of violent criminals. This could be a scene from Daredevil, but it's not (we will talk about that later.) This is how we are introduced to Robin of DC's streaming service TITANS in the premiere episode. It's a decidedly darker take on what was once a junior sidekicks club. In a split decision we are intrigued. Despite...

Just a few weeks after House of Mouse CEO Bob Iger conceded they may be pushing out Star Wars content "too much to fast" Disney XD's newest animated offering Star Wars: Resistance has landed. As is their new tradition, the Regular Joe's review the pilot episode and weigh in with their thoughts. Is it a worthy successor to Clone Wars and Rebels? Is it even intended to be? As one might guess, opinio...

Hello Podcast Listener. For at least 250 episodes Dave has been trying to convince Barry and Tod that Tom Cruse's Mission Impossible series is worth checking out. For anyone who stopped after Mission Impossible I and II this might see unlikely ... or even Impossible. This week however he is successful, as the Regular Joes check out the newly released Mission Impossible: Fallout, and revisit the fi...

This week the Regular Joes discuss two nerd Meccas, one they visited one they skipped. First up Barry and Tod returned the the Official Star Trek Set Tour in Ticonderoga New York.

In the final moments of Avengers: Infinity War the Mad Titan Thanos eradicated half the Marvel Universe. In this week's episode Barry does pretty much the same thing! There have been 20 Marvel Studios films to date. If you were going to cut that list in half, which 10 films would you consider indispensable to a hypothetical new viewer who needs to catch up? Not the 10 best, but rather the most 10...

We skipped a week...hey, summer happens, but we're back in the saddle catching you, and each other, up on what we missed. Barry and Dave made the trek to Eternal Con we they caught up with William Shatner (largely indifferent) Brandon Routh (gracious) and MEGO guy Marty Abrams (relentlessly self promoting). Because Tod didn't really do much of anything interesting, he shoehorns in a run down of re...

Barry was in Philly, Tod is just coming down from May madness, and yet we still pulled together a show. There some residual ruminating about Solo, some consideration of old Ben Kenobi's idea of inconspicuous, and we contemplate the rumored departure of Star Wars boss (and recent addition to Dave's List) Kathleen Kennedy. Shifting universes, Dave has finally gotten on board with The Expanse, which...

Five months after the controversial "The Last Jedi", the newest film in the Star Wars franchise hits theaters. While the box office may have been disappointing, most people seemed to enjoy the ride. As we should now expect, the Regular Joe's positions vary.
