The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of

David and Ryan tear open Newman's bag of undelivered mail to find all the listener questions that have stacked up over the past few months. They cover call sheet collecting, bidding strategies, selling their collections as very old men, fakes in general, fake Mandalorian helmets (is there any other kind?), comic art, Russian spies/collectors, buyer's remorse, sensory pleasures with props, Pokemon cards (so, fake market manipulation) and much more. It's a mixed bag for sure, but it's hopefully packed to the seams with fun!

David and Ryan are back and diving deep into another storied movie prop from the 1980s: Henry Jones' grail diary from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. For their quest, the guys are joined by multi-time Stuff guest and grail-diary-expert Tom Spina of Tom Spina Designs and Regal Robot. Ryan and Tom compare their individual grail diaries and discuss all the similarities and differences among these and all the other books made for the film. You may not find the holy grail itself, but you will find over an hour of nerdy entertainment and enlightenment! Only the penitent man will pass...

David and Ryan recap the March 2026 Propstore auction, their victories and defeats, what they observed about this strange day in collecting, what they sold, what they bought (!) — and then they discuss the year ahead and take a mutual oath of collecting celibacy… for now. /We admit that we are powerless over our collecting. We admit that life is unmanageable when we try to control it…/

It's a very special episode of The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of as David and Ryan are joined by the delightful Janet Snow who played "Assistant to Mr. Puzo" for arguably the greatest film of all time, The Godfather. Join us as Janet regales the guys with her well-recalled stories of that magical, bygone era when men were men, tuxedos were frilly, and Frank Sinatra was still a dick. Ms. Snow, the consignor of the famous Mario Puzo copy of the Godfather Notebook that sold through Heritage Auctions in 2025, talks about supporting both Copolla and Puzo, dealing with the studio, going to parties, making the famous notebooks, and yes -- she even tells that famous story about that fateful night at Chasen's when a certain legend took exception to a certain depiction of a certain singer in a certain movie about certain Italian-American men. Join us, but you bettah not be wearin' a wiyah.
