EPISODE 26 - Clark, Hyung, and John kick off this show with what they're doing with modern base cards as the prices continue to tumble. Is it time to panic and liquidate or buy more at the dip? Then the guys get into the meat of today's episode by dissecting Josh Luber's (StockX Founder and now Chief Vision Officer of Fanatics Trading Cards) insightful White Paper/Essay on the state of the hobby. They discuss whether they agree or disagree on some of his key points including his reason for the hobby boom and subsequent major correction earlier this year. And they talk about whether they share in Luber's optimism of the hobby's future. Plus they react to some of his surprising statements in a recent interview such as his initial thoughts of Fanatics Trading Cards not likely to produce their own branded trading cards or set up their own grading company. This episode ends as usual with the "Pick One segment - the Hot Takes edition" with each of the guys offering two hobby hot takes and then debating on which they believe in more. The Pick One pairs in this episode are: PSA 10 is underrated vs. BGS 10 is overrated; Wander Franco will be the 2022 AL MVP vs. Luis Robert will be the 2022 AL MVP; and the Panini Select set will be irrelevant by 2026 vs. Upper Deck Hockey will be irrelevant by 2026.

EPISODE 25 - Clark, Hyung, and John discuss about the potential impacts of PSA opening up its regular service again this week, and offer guesses on how much it will now cost plus at what length of turnaround time will it be too much to return to PSA. Then the guys talk about their recent visit to a live in-person card show (the Sports Card Expo in Toronto), and share what they liked and disliked about the show. They also share what they ended up buying, trading, and selling, and what their strategies were to get the best deals. Finally, the show ends as usual with the "Pick One segment - the regular edition" with each of them offering two cards or players and then debating which one they would rather invest in. The Pick One pairs in this episode are: Lewis Hamilton Refractor Card vs. Connor McDavid Young Guns Card; Go back in on investing in base cards at 50% of its current market value or just invest in low-number serial numbered cards; and Stephen Curry Bowman rookie card (BGS 9.5) vs. Stephen Curry Bowman rookie card (PSA 9).

EPISODE 24 - Clark, Hyung, and John welcome special guest Chris Costa (aka Costa Cards on Instagram) who talks about opening up a 1,600-square foot retail hobby shop to go along with his successful Big Night Breaks business.

He also dishes on one of the coolest celebrity he's met since reentering the hobby (in addition to meeting Steve Aoki, Shaq, and Robert Kraft). The boys also discuss whether breakers should be able to claim the best spots (a controversial issue first posted on cardporn on Instagram). And they end the episode playing "Pick One - the hot takes edition" with each of them offering two hot hobby takes and then debating on which one is more true. This week's Pick One choices include: Paper parallels are better then Chrome parallels vs. SSP image variation are better then numbered rare flagship cards; Juan Soto will win 4 MVP awards vs. Shohei Ohtani will win 4 MVP awards; and Panini Select Basketball will overtake Panini Prizm Basketball vs. Optic Football will overtake Panini Prizm Football.

EPISODE 23 - Clark, Hyung, and John question if it's the beginning of the end for Topps as the iconic company loses another trading card license – this time it's the WWE trading card license, which will now go to Panini America. Then moving on to this week's "Hobby Headlines," the guys get prepared for the local card show (the Sports Card Expo in Toronto) and offer tips on how to best prepare for any in-person card shows (ie. bring lots of cash and know relative comps of the cards you're looking to buy.) The boys then introduce a new segment called, "Double Down" in which they choose a card or player they are still super bullish on and looking to buy more of. Last but not least, Clark, Hyung and John, play "Pick One -the regular edition" with each of them offering two cards or players and then debating which one they would rather invest in. The Pick One pairs in this episode are: Fernando Tatis Sapphire rookie card vs. Fernando Tatis Foilboard rookie card; Rip for free multiple Panini Prizm basketball boxes vs. Rip for free one Panini Flawless basketball box; and Luka Doncic Silver Prizm rookie card (PSA 8) vs. Luka Doncic Base Prizm rookie card (PSA 10).

EPISODE 22 - Clark, Hyung, and John, open the show and discuss the surprise that Upper Deck has signed a licensing agreement with the NHL and NHLPA (and not Fanatics). They move on to this week's "Hobby Headlines" where the guys talk about whether it's time to panic on such stud players as Patrick Mahomes, Cody Bellinger, Mookie Betts, and Russell Westbrook, ranking each on a panic scale with "1" being "not worried at all" to "10" being, "Where's the panic button?" The boys also revisit some of their "Dead Wrong" moves again in the hobby and what they've learned from past mistakes. Lastly, they end the episode playing "Pick One" with each of them offering two hot takes this week and then debating which one is more likely to happen. The Pick One pairs in this episode include: LaMelo Ball will lead the Hornets to an NBA Championship vs. Lonzo Ball will lead the Bulls to an NBA Championship; Baseball pitchers will regain hobby relevance vs. Hockey defensemen will regain hobby relevance; and Patrick Mahomes will become the GOAT in football when his career is done vs. Connor McDavid will become the GOAT in hockey when his career is done.

EPISODE 19 - Clark, Hyung, and John discuss off the top the recent news of PWCC launching their own auction platform and what that might mean for eBay.

Clark, Hyung and John also play "On A Budget" the regular edition, which means they each suggest what sports card they would invest in at the $100, $500, and $1,000 level. Lastly, they play "Pick One" again where each of them pit two cards or sets against one another, and they decide which is the best investment.

EPISODE 18 - Clark, Hyung, and John theorize about what happened in that video where a Donruss Optic football card was found in a Bowman Chrome baseball card pack. Moving on to "Hobby Headlines," the guys get deep into what the future of the hobby might look like with recent news from Fanatics that the company aspires to be a "one-stop shop" in five years when its MLB and NBA licensing deals come into effect (and all the current players in the hobby that might be in trouble including PSA, PWCC, local card stores, eBay). Clark, Hyung and John also introduce a new segment called "Tricks of the Trade" where they offer tips and advice on anything hobby related including how to find good sports card deals on eBay, and when to buy sports cards.

In a new segment called "Hobby Shoutout," Clark, Hyung, and John give props to those who they go to in the hobby for education and/or entertainment value (such as Scott Baldwin (@scottie_b_cards on Instagram), Geoff Wilson (@sportscardinvestor) and Sasha T (@sashatamaddon). They wrap up the show with the regular "Pick One" segment where they offer two players/cards/sets, and then debate which one they'd rather invest in.
