    A Legendary Collector Spotlight: Larry McGlynn

    It’s time for another dose of space collecting royalty with a candid conversation with the legendary Larry McGlynn.  Collector, appraiser, actor, advisor, mentor… the hats he wears in our beloved collecting industry are limitless. The boys talk about everything from Larry’s origin story down to his current collection and critical involvement with the passing of HR 4158, the Congressional artifact legislation from 2011-12 that granted legal title to the MGA astronauts of their artifacts. There's something for everyone to learn from this episode, but nothing more important than research, provenance, and knowing what you collect. Sit back and enjoy the conversation with one of the hobby's founding fathers.

    A Conversation with Space Artifact Collector Bryan Edwards

    Before interviewing Bryan, Rich and Jason honor the memory of Karan Conklin from the Space Walk of Fame Museum in Titusville, Florida. They also discuss the newly released Netflix Apollo 13 documentary and Rich's recent interview about coins flown in space. After that comes super space memorabilia collector Bryan Edwards from Minnesota. Bryan discusses his unique path into space collecting. Learn about his father rubbing elbows with NASA personnel in Houston and how growing up in Houston fueled his passion for collecting space memorabilia. They then discuss everything from autographs to flown heat-shield lucites. Downsizing a bit, Bryan is moving to North Carolina shortly and -- teaser! -- there won't be a garage sale.  You will, however, hear some fun stories from the hey-day of the autograph shows, including a unique interaction with the Last Man to Walk on the Moon, Gene Cernan.

    A Collector's Conversation with Steve Jurvetson

    In this episode, Rich and Jason speak to the alpha-omega space collector, Steve Jurvetson, who has arguable the most complete space flown hardware collection in private hands. A board member of Space X, Steve was an original investor in Elon Musk's journeys off-Earth. (In fact, he's owned the first production Tesla Model S, and the second production Model X, which he has since donated to the Peterson Automobile Museum.) Getting bitten by the collecting bug after buying some John Young items, Steve's massive collection now spans all programs and is primarily made up of unique, one-of-a-kind flown mission critical items such as parts of the spacecraft itself. Hear how he assembled his collection, his perspective on the types of items he collects, and how he decides what stays and goes. Steve co-founded Future Ventures, where he investments in trailblazing, purpose-driven entrepreneurs with unique, moon-shot ideas that have the potential to reinvent entire industries, and President Barack Obama appointed Steve as a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship. With his mind firmly focused on the future, you will hear about how Steve leverage's the past to inspire and inform the next generation. Join the guys as they discuss everything from Steve's expansive office museum to secret, buried  space treasure in Houston!

On a sad note, Rich and Jason pay tribute to Col. Joe Engle, another hero who sadly passed away last week.
