This week, the Regular Joes, all five of them, make the Trek to Ticonderoga. There are two good reasons to visit this small New York town. Fort Ticonderoga is the site of the first American victory in the Revolutionary War, and the site of the Star Trek Original Series Set Tour. Note: only one of these is accessible in winter. Hint, it’s the one with phasers and not muskets. While there the Joes interview James Cawley, creator of this unique attraction, about his own involvement in the Star Trek franchise, as well as his many other interests. We all have our own respective passions, but few of us pursue them to the degree that James Cawley has. It’s a fascinating interview with a fascinating man, who’s found a unique and amazingly cool way to share his love of Star Trek with fellow fans. Thanks for listening!

For 35 years Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) has held the dubious distinction of being the worst Star Trek film ever made, but that inauspicious run is over. With the release of the Paramount+ film Star Trek: Section 31 there’s a new benchmark for bad in the Trek universe. To spare you one hour and 35 minutes of weak, nonsensical plot, thin characters, and cheesy gimmicks, the Regular Joe’s watched Section 31 for you. Note: there will be SPOILERS, but think of it as a “mercy spoiling.” From the far future we move to recent past as the long awaited MCU version of Fantastic Four releases its first teaser/trailer serving up a mid-century-modern take on Marvel’s first family of adventurers. Cautious optimism appears in order. There’s also the usual Random Topics and a round of What’s in The Box. Thanks for Listening!

This week, the Regular Joe’s catch up each other on what they’ve been doing the last few weeks. Inspired by the recent 55 films episodes Tod has decided to rewatch classic films in their original unadulterated format to kick this off he recently went to see King Kong (1933) on the big screen in a theater where it originally played when released. Dave, long the master of custom-made displays and plaques has started a business … wait for it, making and selling custom-made displays and plaques. Did you recently pick up a pair of old ruby slippers that you really want to show off? Dave can help. Barry is just back from his third trip to the happiest place on Earth, at least the happiest place on Earth if you’re Barry. Yes, another research trip to Lucas Film and Skywalker Ranch. He shares some, but not all, the details about the amazing stuff, and people, he saw there. As we, once again, live vicarious through him and try to keep our envy in check. Thanks for listening!
