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

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 by friend of the podcast and current reigning-champion guest host Rob Klein to discuss a long bandied-about topic on The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of: the great lost props. Props going missing is, of course, a fact of life in our corner of the collecting world, but this episode highlights the biggest of the bigs -- the Yeti, the Second Gunman on the Grassy Knoll, the Loch Ness monsters -- of missing props. That is, those truly iconic "collection-in-one" props that haven't been reported to exist since filming wrapped. So join the guys (and Rob) in this Season 8 finale for a very nerdy deep dive into the mysterious and perhaps paranormal world of M.I.A. props.

It's a change of pace on The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of as David and Ryan class up the joint by sitting down with actual journalist and actual author Chris Nashawaty to discuss his brand new book The Future Was Now, which covers that brilliant 1982 genre summer and the eight science-fiction (and fantasy) masterpieces that came out of it. Especially Conan the Barbarian -- but also The Wrath of Khan, Blade Runner, The Thing, E.T., The Road Warrior, Tron, and Poltergeist. Join the guys as they reminisce about the good old days when movies like Blade Runner and The Thing opened on the same day and people still found a way to complain about the state of movies. Remember movies? Don't worry -- there's still plenty of prop talk.

It's a guest-free episode of the Stuff Dreams Are Made Of as David and Ryan discuss what can be one of the most difficult topics for collectors: how to go about slimming down your collection. Collectors spend so much time agonizing about finding and winning this stuff that it can be hard to let go. To help, the guys discuss their individual philosophies on how to know when it's time to move stuff on, how to choose what you're moving on, and maybe how to prevent from ending up with too much stuff in the first place. This episode is brought to you by whisky and monkey radiator caps.
