CollectSPACE founder and space collecting hobby legend Robert Pearlman joins the podcast to discuss how he got started in the industry and where he envision the hobby heading in the future. Richard and Jason also discuss the recent Heritage Auction space sale and under appreciated Gemini program memorabilia.

Richard and Jason spend time talking with Joe Lennox, a space collecting and education legend. Joe talks about his passion for the space program and how he utilizes his collection (assembled mostly for free over decades!) for the greater good -- educating and inspiring scores of children on the importance of the next frontier. Joe describes how he acquired some of his special items and how he displays those treasures. You’ll love hearing Joe’s story-telling and his passion for space travel collecting. His enthusiasm is infectious. The guys also discuss — from the collector’s perspective — the recent passing of another lunar hero, Bill Anders.

Richard, based in the UK, is both a dealer and collector, and he gives his unique perspective on collecting and selling historic space artifacts.

Meet Apollo-era space collector and best-selling author, speaker, and marketing strategist David Meerman Scott. David shares personal insight into his collecting influences and passions, from Grateful Dead guitars to lunar artifacts like a flown Apollo command module window, rocket engine bell, and guidance computer. Diving deep into the mindset and psychology of what it means to be a collector, we learn how his Apollo fandom evolved into amassing a hardware collection worthy of building an in-home space museum and how he shares his unique collection of Apollo 11 press kits with the world. Rich and Jason conclude with a thank you and a fun giveaway offer to their listeners.

In this inaugural episode, Rich and Jason introduce their new podcast series for and about space collectors, pay special tribute to the late astronaut General Tom Stafford, discuss some hidden gems listed in the April RR Space Auction, and engage in a fascinating conversation with noted space and aviation authenticator Steve Zarelli.
