    Another Real Talk About Fake Props

    Another Real Talk About Fake Props

    Much to the delight of at least three people, David and Ryan are back on the mic spittin' truth about fake props. They have returned with new information, new insights, and some proactive thoughts regarding what can be done about the most insidious activity going on in our beloved hobby right now. In pursuit of educating the public, the guys go all the way back to the beginning of The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of and their first topic: "How do you know this stuff is real?" Bonus: how private deals are bad, brought to you by our sponsors, Propstore and Heritage Auctions (sic).

    Live on Tape: March Madness Auction Wrap-Up

    If you missed the last LIVE episode, here it is: a lot later and not so live. David and Ryan cover the three crazy March auctions: Propstore, Planet Hollywood, and the final Greg Jein auction. The guys interact with the pod's most devoted (and least busy, apparently) fans regarding their takeaways from the auctions (C-3POs!), big surprises (Titanic doors!), a great collecting story (whips!) their wins and losses (you have to listen to find out), and what they're thinking about as they go into the summer auction season.  Next time, don’t miss the live broadcast!

    Deep Dive: The Imperial TIE Pilot

    Deep Dive: The Imperial TIE Pilot

    The Stuff Dreams are Made Of figured they'd switch things up a bit and talk about Star Wars for once. So David and Ryan are joined by self-professed "TIE Pilot Lunatic" Jay Swkarlo to talk all things TIE Pilot! This TIE triumverate digs deep into the nerdy chasm of knowledge and answers all the questions you and your mom might ever have had about the TIE Pilot: who made it, how it was made, how many were made, where are they now, what matches, who has them, and will Dave ever complete his TIE Pilot costume?
