In this week’s episode of Hobby Nonsense, Jesse and Ray dig into some of the biggest conversations shaking up the non-sport card hobby:

• The marketing problem in non-sports cards and why it lags behind sports cards in engagement.
  

• The upcoming Pokémon Ultra Premium Collection boxes dropping in November, and why collectors are buzzing about these two massive releases.
  

• Scams in the hobby — how vendors are dealing with fake cards, plus reactions to viral social videos exposing the issue.
  

• PSA former employee exposes what we all need to STOP doing. Plus, why newer PSA slabs are starting to sell for higher values.
  

• The scalper debate: some events are finding ways to stop them, but it raises the question — are scalpers really that bad for the hobby?
  

• Finally, the announcement of the Topps SpongeBob Anniversary set, which could be one of the most fun and collectible non-sport products of the year.
  

From scams to SpongeBob, this episode has it all — tune in for real talk on the news, controversies, and products shaping the non-sport world.
