From showrunners Ryan Condal (House of the Dragon) and Dave Mandel (Veep), this is The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of, and here they look at upgrading, and how a collector can improve their collection. Of course, their area of expertise is in movie prop collecting, but the logic of upgrading stands across any collection, so take a look.
Today on the pod, David and Ryan discuss the thing that every collector seeks: making their collection better. Specifically, taking a piece in your collection and upgrading it. That can mean anything from going from production-made to screen-used, from stunt to hero, from un-matched to screen-matched and beyond! How do the guys approach an upgrade? How crazy does “needing” (we are sick people) an upgrade drive them? What’s a delta? All that, some macroeconomic theory from Ryan, and more on this week’s The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of!
