  • The Jim Henson Company 70th Anniversary Auction
    Nov 19 2025

    David and Ryan tackle a big one today: the first-ever Jim Henson Company official sale, brought to you by Julien's Auctions. The guys have been talking about the auction for a few weeks, but it's time to finally crack open the catalog. And this one has everything - from Fraggles to Dark Crystals to Gelflings to Skeksis (Skeksi?) to Jim Henson-owned-and-worn-and-matched patterned shirts, to Muppet props to Treasure Island maps to those rubber chickens from A Christmas Carol. It's a truly delightful sale that will bring back memories for every generation of Henson Company fans, and there are items for every kind of bidder. Don't miss this truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity -- if you do, you'll be as mad as Animal.

  • Collector Greg Nicotero (oh, and also living legend)
    Nov 12 2025

    You can't spell Greg Nicotero without i-c-o-n. After years of idle talk and months of courting David and Ryan's annoying persistence has finally paid off - or Greg simply got too tired of being "busy" - or he took pity on this little collecting podcast. Either way, it's the coup of coups for The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of, and the guys carpe diem big time with genre the make-up SFX legend, co-founder of KNB FX, and mega-collector to learn all about what made him and what makes him tick. They talk Creepshow, Evil Dead, Jaws (and more Jaws), The Thing, and collecting, collecting, collecting! So throw on your best decaying skin suit and shamble on over for what is sure to be an episode for the ages!

David and Ryan are here to share the juicy details with the two ladies who made it all happen: Lisa Henson, Jim's daughter and the CEO of The Jim Henson Company, and Karen Falk, its Archives Director. They chat with the guys about what it means to be in charge of the Company and its treasures, the history of the archives, and what brought about the decision, for the very first time, to open their vault doors to the fans. The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of will be there covering this historic event with the officious-ness of Sam Eagle. It's not easy... needing green...
