Julie Develin is an expert in sports card collecting, and has been an avid collector since she was a little kid. She has amassed a collection of cards and memorabilia so large, she isn't really sure how many cards she has.

In this conversation, we talk about the connection between the pandemic and the surge of sports card collecting; the origin of sports cards; nostalgia; creating safe spaces for women in the hobby; why your box of 1990s baseball cards probably aren't worth much but your single Mike Trout rookie card definitely is; the Zen of looking through your collection; and so much more.

So find out why Julie loves collecting sports cards - and why you might learn to love it, too!
