The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of
David and Ryan are, along with the rest of the world, gobsmacked by the result of Heritage Auctions' ruby slippers sale. They break that down along with the rest of the wild and wacky 2024 for this year-ending, season-ending episode of the podcast. Join the guys they talk about the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future on this round-up episode of the podcast and are joined by a super special guest (and fellow, budding TikTok legend) to talk about the fifteen minutes of prop bidding heard round the world. It's the last episode until 2025, so pour yourself some eggnog and tuck in to another evening with your favorite prop nerds!

On a guest-free (and auction-catalog-free!) episode of The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of, David and Ryan delve into a sticky topic: what separates the collector from the dealer. In a hobby where many dealers also collect, the delineation can be fuzzy — and therein lies the problem. Drawing from their long experience navigating these murky waters, the guys provide their opinion on why this distinction is so important and why (they believe, at least), it is absolute.

But it wasn't a dream. It was a place! And you were there, and you were there, and you were there, and you were there! Buckle your seatbelts, Auntie ‘Em and Uncle Owen, as David and Ryan take you through the entire Heritage Auctions Hollywood Entertainment Auction featuring the Ruby Slippers of Oz. Along with special guest, Heritage’s Brian Chanes, and a live studio audience, the guys drool over King Kong gas bombs, Mario Puzo’s personal copy of the Coppola Godfather notebook, the original, one-and-only hero Jumanji game board, and the Wicked Witch’s screen-matched hat! Plus, that infamous Ruby Slippers theft, and we confirm once and for all that the slippers are one hundred percent covered in real rubies. Or are they?

David and Ryan begin part two of their killer discussion with Bill Hunt by reviewing the results of the recent Propstore auction and Heritage's Power Rangers auction. They then invite Bill back on to finish the discussion about all things 4K, including the recent controversial James Cameron transfers and their weird AI process, and they then ask Bill about the holy grail of all home video collectors: the original, un-fuc, we mean un-altered, Star Wars trilogy. Bill then talks about his own obsession as a world-renowned collector of authentic space mission patches! Part 2 is 4K the fun!

On a very special episode of your favorite props podcast (meaning: no auction coverage; you’re welcome), David and Ryan are joined by the editor-in-chief of the singular physical media resource, The Digital Bits. Bill and The Bits have covered home theater and physical media since the dawn of the DVD era almost 30 years ago. He chats with the guys about the 4K format, where it’s been and where it’s going, those weird James Cameron remasters and of course, collecting physical media. It was such a good discussion, we had to break it into two parts!

In the super-sized mid-season finale, Ryan and Dave get a sneak-preview of the new Prop Store December auction catalog from owner and founder Stephen Lane. Join the guys on a page-by-page journey through the catalog as they chat BATMAN cowls, hear a cool story about finding David Bowie's crystal ball, try to figure out where in their houses they might hang the original PARAMOUNT logo, talk STAR WARS (of course) -- and their not-dispassionate feelings about the Special Editions -- and they break rules number 1 and 2 by talking a lot about FIGHT CLUB and Brad Pitt’s wardrobe. And what will Dave and Ryan be bidding on?
David and Ryan have a lively one for you that begins with Ryan ranting about the state of collectors and collecting (what else is new). Dave then distracts him with the auction at hand, and the guys highlight the great stuff you may have missed from days 2 and 3 of the auction before covering their patented "categories" discussion, highlighting the props that they wish they were sophisticated enough to buy, what they won't be buying, what they should be buying, and maybe what they will be buying come auction day. They of course also call out the things that their wives would love them for buying, divorce them for buying, and what their kids would want. And it wouldn't be an auction episode without discussing the worst Prometheus props. Do I hear $100,000?
You can also watch this episode on YouTube where we have the catalog on screen as we call out each lot! https://youtube.com/live/ImJwHxo_c6E?feature=share

This week on the Stuff Dreams Are Made Of, David and Ryan don't know what the hell they're talking about.

Hear all about Rich's intoxicating passion for this childhood favorite as he regales the guys with the history of the franchise, its many deaths and rebirths, and how it is that this once-in-a-lifetime auction came to be. We have Rangers of every color, one-of-a-kind power swords, Rita Repulsa scepters, Lord Zed costumes, helmets, swords, blasters, the Video Vulture puppet, Meower Rangers, the Hero Megazord Filming Miniature, dinosaur eggs, Anubis Cruger, Gluto, Rantipede, Grinder, Master Xanred, Octoroo, Scuttleworm, and yeah, even some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

So many people talk about it. These guys are actually doing it. David and Ryan welcome on former Stuff guest and Star Wars uber-collector Gus Lopez as well as Star Wars collecting legend Steve Sansweet to discuss their diabolical plans to construct a Star Wars museum for fans -- by fans. Museum-building is a notoriously impossible task (cost being one of the most insurmountable hurdles), but join Gus and Steve as they unveil their years-long labor of love and their plans to combine four of the greatest Star Wars collections in the world to create a technological wonder, the Death Star of Star Wars collecting museums. And the best part is -- they need you, the collector, to help! That's no moon -- it's the Saga Museum!

David and Ryan are joined for an enlightening and extra-nerdy conversation about Batman’s various conveyances by the very man who designed them. No, not Bruce Wayne.

Join the guys as they pepper Julian with questions about his illustrious illustrating career, covering everything from Batman to Aliens to Judge Dredd and painting the wall yellow!
