Recording Date - 9/29/24

Publish Date - 10/2/24

We have a special guest, Lane from Good Morning Johto! He’s in the house to discuss the dark underbelly of the card market. We get the inside scoop from the front lines of a local game shop (LGS) about pricing cards and what’s hot on the market right now. We speculate on the next group of cards to go to the moon. 

Adam’s been busy hunting down all the League Cups and Challenges in his area and reports back on the results. Somehow someway Adam finds a never before seen Delibird card (no really!) and it came all the way from Peru!

We finish the show with the craze that every New Zealander has been talking about, Pokemon TCG Pocket! Justin and Lane give a full depth review about the ins and outs of the game and their experience with the app. Very promising start for Pocket and we can’t wait to see where it goes. Not everyone is happy about it though as Adam Mcgrumpypants tries to rain on their parade and just wants to play real cards and TCG live.
