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 of a ride.

Thanks for watching, and listening!

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 and Bob Burns.

Thanks for listening and Happy holidays!

This week Brian Mix sits down with Barry, Dave and Tod to talk about a big new project in Ticonderoga. We all love the Original Star Trek Set Tour, also known as "Mecca" to Trek fans, and very soon the forever home to a huge piece of Star Trek original series history.

Brian gives the details on what to expect, how you can help, and how one of Barry's own creations was involved in the announcement. He also shares anecdotes from William Shatner's most recent visit to Ticonderoga, including what happens when Captain Kirk meets his puppet doppelgänger..

There's also the usual Random Topics, and a round of What's in the Box!

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, Dave and Tod will understand.

There's also the usual Random Topics, and a What's on the Workbench update.

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 measure of significance? Answers to all these questions and more, as the Regular Joe's take a deep dive into the Predator saga.

There's also the usual Random Topics and, a round of What's in the Box!

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 guest with deep roots in Hollywood, that you won't want to miss.

Thank for listening ... and maybe even watching!
