Over Memorial Day weekend, The Mental Suppository's Andrew Shanley and his friend Andy Sawyer took an overnight trip to Ticonderoga New York to check out the Star Trek Exhibit. What he experienced made him remember why he became a fan of the show in the first place as he and Andy basked in the detailed reproduction of set designs and props from the original series. In this installment, Bret and Andrew discuss their long time enjoyment of geek culture as Andrew talks about his experience at the exhibit as well as visiting Fort Ticonderoga for a tour of the historical site. Bret also mentions his experience visiting the Sherlock Holmes Museum in London back in 2000 as well as more recently going to National Geographics Immersive King Tut Exhibit at Sowa in Boston with his wife and the fun they had. You'll also learn there's actually a difference between nerd and geek culture. But we celebrate both equally on this podcast. So get both your nerd and your geek on in this episode because we celebrate both equally on this podcast.
After their two week break the Regular Joe's are back and we catch up on what they have been doing. Tod seemingly squandered his time getting ready to start his 24th year of school ... and not buying a vintage 240z, while his cohosts took off on their own late summer adventures. Barry opted to make a return Trek to the final frontier, now located in Ticonderoga New York, while Dave visited a Galaxy far, far, away … in Orlando. In yet another instance of consumer codependency they all each received the long awaited Hot Toys Endgame Captain America figure which prompts a rare 3 way What's in the Box … really, that's sounds a lot worse than it is. While they're at it Barry brings up the issue of whether or not size matters. OK really I'm just gonna stop now. Lastly, just because stuff keeps happening there's the usual round of Random Topics. It's good to be back. And, as always thanks for listening!
With everything that’s going on and everything that’s not, sometimes it’s nice to just have some time to kick back and hang out with your friends. This was one of those weeks. Joined by Derryl DePriest, and Brian Mix, Barry, Dave and Tod cover a wide range of topics from the genius of the late Carl Reiner, the glacial pace vs. the conceptual brilliance of 2001 a Space Odyssey, and why Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. picked now to finally get so damned good. On the Final Frontier ... er, front, Dave makes the trek to the just reopened Star Trek Set Tour in Ticonderoga New York, which would have been the best Trek related experience anyone has had in months, until Brian laid down the “I just hung out with Bjo and John Trimble” card. He Won. Note: if you don’t know the name Bjo Trimble, seriously, Google her. Thanks for listening, and hanging out with us!
