In this powerful episode, we sit down with Andrew Smith—better known in the hobby as @TecmoCards—for a raw, honest conversation about mental health, depression, anxiety, and how collecting helped him rediscover connection, community, and purpose.

Andrew opens up about his experiences with therapy and medication, shares how the hobby became a lifeline during dark times, and reflects on the harm caused by predatory behavior in the space.

This one goes beyond the cards—it’s about healing, hope, and holding space for others. A must-listen for anyone navigating the intersection of mental wellness and collecting.
