00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:36.320
Brother from another mother, as we like to say, part
9
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:40.280
two of our great conversation, and man, we're gotta have
10
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:43.240

11
00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:47.880
table just for time wise, but awesome chatting up with
12
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:50.799
him and just you know, it's like again, it's like
13
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:54.240
when two people get together like that that you know,
14
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:56.679
have fun as you forget the MIC's even on it.
15
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:00.240
So I had a fun conversation. If you think catch
16
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:03.159
part one, go back a week and catch that Part
17
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:06.079
two was today. You don't matter what order you listen
18
00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:08.680
to them. So if you're already listening to this, that's
19
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:13.319
fine and go back and listen to part well part
20
00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:16.680
one as well. I want to thank our sponsors that
21
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:20.920
make this show happen, Iron Sports Car, rob Olente, taking
22
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:26.040
your Folk Subs, Sports Collectors, Digest. I'm fortunate enough to
23
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:27.239
be able to write for.
24
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:28.359
Them each month.
25
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:34.400
Hobby Hotline, our Saturday Morning Conglomerate show, and Upper Deck
26
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:38.640
who lets us review some product. So with all the
27
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:42.200
house cleaning out of the way, let's get the show started,
28
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:45.680
all right, folks, Here is part two of my conversation
29
00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:48.359
with Poali camp you owned, and we're going to start
30
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:52.760
out here talking about opening wax boxes. Right, and while
31
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:56.959
it's fun, no one will argue that it's not really
32
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.680
cost prohibitive. And while it's fun, open and then sort
33
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:03.799
of when the dust settles right, sometimes you really take
34
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:06.319
it on the chin. So we're gonna we're gonna tackle
35
00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:09.199
that aspect and then much more so, here you.
36
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:11.120
Are and something even better.
37
00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:13.560
Like a lot of times, like I can't stand getting
38
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:15.800
like a box of cards and then I got you
39
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:18.680
know that it comes down to like one pack that's
40
00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:20.520
good and that I'm gonna like put aside.
41
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:22.199
But the rest of that box sits there.
42
00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:25.879
And even if somebody pops one day and becomes a star,
43
00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:28.719
I gotta go look through boxes and stuff to find
44
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:31.240
out which one I have. Like it's just it's just
45
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:34.400
like a crazy process. But like with this the digital
46
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:37.520
it's there's a search baar, you type in the guy's
47
00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:41.400
name and you could have, you know, ten thousand digital moments,
48
00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:44.319
those few names, those few you own are gonna pop
49
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:47.479
right up. It's like a search digital catalog. And not
50
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.159
only that, but even if you can't take owning a
51
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:52.639
lot of these things from ripping packs and having like
52
00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:54.960
duds that you consider like all right, this is just
53
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:58.639
another common they have these things called like burning challenges
54
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:01.439
and things like that, so you could basically burn these
55
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:05.080
old things into you know, to hit leaderboards and win
56
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:08.159
you know, new packs and new stuff or things like
57
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:11.800
merchandise or whatever promotion they're running. You can burn them
58
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:13.800
off and they still have a value. So it's it's
59
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:16.240
kind of nice because it's like even if it's digital,
60
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:17.319
it still takes.
61
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:18.000
Up mental space.
62
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:19.960
And you're like, you know what, I do want to
63
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.840
get rid of these thousand commons that I have, so
64
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:25.960
let's burn them away and turn them into something else.
65
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:27.800
So it's like I think it's just like one of
66
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:29.759
those things though, like you have to sit down with
67
00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:31.840
somebody and like like like one night.
68
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:34.639
We get some cigars, we order a piazza, We sit.
69
00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:36.719
There on the digital devices, and then we got to
70
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:38.800
like go through it a little bit. So sometimes it's
71
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:41.439
like what is all this world? But I think if
72
00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:44.080
you're able to like chat with it friendly wise and
73
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.039
see it, it becomes part of your life almost because
74
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:49.479
you're like, I gotta make my line up today, you know,
75
00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:51.639
or whatever. I don't have time, Let me eat autofill
76
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:53.840
and put in whatever five plays I have because I
77
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:54.360
don't want.
78
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.479
To miss the day of your fantasy predictions. So I mean,
79
00:03:57.479 --> 00:03:58.960
it's just something. It's something cool.
80
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:00.960
And that's why I you know, like I said, I
81
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:04.800
don't stop collecting one thing or another. I think that's
82
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:07.319
the whole point. Also, why you know, I started the
83
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:08.120
what do you collect?
84
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:08.879
Podcasts?
85
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.240
Because there's so many different avenues and so many things
86
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:16.360
you can't collect. If you're a fan of of any sport,
87
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:20.319
any player, you just want to you know, own different
88
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:23.519
different items. Who wants bibbleheads of you know, do I
89
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:24.959
have a Derek Ga bibblehead?
90
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:26.839
Do I have one of these headline of things that
91
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:29.079
came out with these blown up heads of Yeah?
92
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:31.000
I got them all, I got, I got that, I got,
93
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:33.079
I got the cards I got, I got told you
94
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.800
these motion things. It's it when you're a fan, it's
95
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:39.079
you like somebody or a team, you just wanna you know,
96
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:41.600
might have a nice wide variety, and you know, if
97
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.079
you're in it just for to get to make a buck.
98
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:45.399
It's the whole other story.
99
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.959
But yeah, well, speaking of that, I wanted to ask
100
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:51.639
you about that real quick too. And you mentioned, you know,
101
00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:56.079
opening a box and maybe get one pack where it
102
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.480
brings you some joy and then the others maybe not
103
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:01.439
not so much. And let's and I think you know,
104
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:05.319
without knowing right, these wax boxes are not going down
105
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:05.879
in price.
106
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:08.839
A lot of them are four figures or more.
107
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:11.839
And just because you pay a thousand bucks or more
108
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.920
for a boxing card does not mean you get get
109
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:19.000
that much worth in actual physical cards and most likely
110
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:19.839
not right.
111
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:21.360
It's like lottery chickens.
112
00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:24.680
You scratch off ten, you hit one for a couple
113
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:28.800
of bucks, in the other nine not so not so much. So, uh,
114
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:34.040
you know it's it's wax is generally a losing proposition.
115
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:36.720
I wanted to ask you about this. You know, we're
116
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:39.439
seeing on the on the physical side of the hobby.
117
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:43.040
And again, to each their own, I'm not besmirching anybody,
118
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:45.399
but we've seen a lot of people get in the
119
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:48.680
physical side of the hobby just to just for the
120
00:05:48.759 --> 00:05:52.000
financial aspect, I'm gonna buy this on Monday and I'm
121
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:54.800
GONNESDA on Wednesday with a double trip of my money
122
00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:59.680
cash out. You know, they're not necessarily passionate about the
123
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:04.680
how They're passionate about flipping and making profit and moving
124
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:07.920
on to the next big thing, whatever that might be.
125
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:10.360
You know, a lot of the sneaker folks came over
126
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:13.600
when that that part of the high that hobby sort
127
00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:18.000
of plate toed, and they came over when the cards crescendoed,
128
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:22.000
especially during COVID with the digital did did you see
129
00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:26.120
the same sort of phenomenon there or not not so much?
130
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:26.800
Yeah?
131
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:31.160
Absolutely, I mean there still is things that I feel
132
00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:35.040
like now everything's trying to level and it's trying to
133
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:38.040
become more of the collectibles than.
134
00:06:37.959 --> 00:06:41.000
The beginning, because in the beginning, it was honestly.
135
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:43.120
Like a lot of the a lot of the big
136
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:47.519
bang came from people just wanting anything on the platform.
137
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:50.680
There was some common selling for twenty five thirty dollars,
138
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:54.199
which now you know, a down to the base dollar
139
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:57.639
and you know, and it'll sit there because there's so
140
00:06:57.759 --> 00:06:59.079
many of them because it.
141
00:06:58.959 --> 00:06:59.480
Was that hole.
142
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:03.240
There's not a lot of these and they you know,
143
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:06.439
as they were released, they're officially licensed. So a lot
144
00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:10.800
of the digital stuff that is still going NBA licensed
145
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:15.079
with NBA Top Shot, UH, NFL O Day is licensed
146
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:20.079
by the NFL. Candy has MLB UH Digital Collectibles, an
147
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:22.319
NHL Breakaway has the Hockey.
148
00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:24.079
They're all officially licensed.
149
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:26.879
So these are the only companies that can do a
150
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:31.360
video and and basically turn it into a collectible. There's
151
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.639
you know, maybe someone does digital stills, but to get
152
00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:38.439
the actual video highlight, there's only those companies that that
153
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:39.000
can do that.
154
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:44.199
So the mint size on these, generally speaking are very small.
155
00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:48.120
When there's like this year the Cooper Flag, it's capped
156
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:52.000
at only a thousand digital rookie, and then there's some
157
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:58.199
parallels that go into that total build. I mean, so
158
00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:01.920
it's it's it's very small considering. So it's like this
159
00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:05.560
is right now as they're coming out, they're hovering around
160
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.439
maybe one sixty to one seventy for just a base
161
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:12.480
rookie one hundred and sixty bucks right now as they
162
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.879
just came out a week or two ago. So uh,
163
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:18.839
it's something that you know, everybody wants one because it's
164
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:22.000
you know, he's you know, the hot rookie. If it
165
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:25.839
becomes like the wenby the sensation and then he actually delivers,
166
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:27.519
that's something that will go up.
167
00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:27.800
You know.
168
00:08:27.879 --> 00:08:32.480
It's it's as it as they also have these challenges
169
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:36.440
that go on throughout the season, it kind of fuels
170
00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:39.360
them again because it's like, okay, now we have a
171
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:43.559
new rare moment that maybe comes out and it's like, okay,
172
00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:46.840
there'll be the first, you know, the top three people
173
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:51.759
that want to burn their Cooper Flag commons and whoever
174
00:08:51.840 --> 00:08:54.279
burns the top three you say, for example, I'm just
175
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:56.559
giving that as an example. There'll be an actual number
176
00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:59.559
how many people will win it will win.
177
00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:00.440
This race moment.
178
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:02.480
So if you stacked a bunch of them, you know
179
00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:04.600
now so it's like okay, now I'm gonna burn maybe
180
00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:07.279
six or seven or eight of them, and I want
181
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.519
to be the guy who burns the most. Now you
182
00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:12.279
can get you know that that thousand dollars you know
183
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:15.600
Cooper flag moment that only has a few only limited
184
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:19.000
maybe minted to fifty or like. That's what happens as
185
00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:21.879
you know, the season goes on. So which is something
186
00:09:21.919 --> 00:09:24.120
I like because again it brings you back to your
187
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.919
collection and it's not just oh I collected it, I
188
00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:27.360
got it.
189
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:28.080
And now it's gone.
190
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:30.960
But yes, in the beginning, it was a lot of
191
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:34.080
people running in uh trying to make money selling them
192
00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:36.879
quick because the money was just like you couldn't get
193
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:39.279
like you were just happy to get a pack. Like
194
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:42.559
the packs had cues where you were lucky, like week
195
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:45.519
after week that something would come out. I had, you know,
196
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:47.919
I don't know, maybe a month of strikeouts like not
197
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:51.320
even not you know, sorry missed out, Sorry missed out,
198
00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:53.399
and you were just like waiting to try to get
199
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:56.759
a pack. So obviously anything you sold out of that
200
00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:00.320
was profit because it was just, you know, so new,
201
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:02.960
and it was so cool because it was like, Okay,
202
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:07.000
you want Lebron James on a you know video and
203
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:09.879
it's and it's minted and there's only this is the
204
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:13.399
first series, so nothing else exists like this. But like
205
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.559
every collectible, as years keep going on, maybe I don't
206
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:19.200
need Lebron James anymore because I already have them from
207
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.440
the last four years. You know, it's like the physical
208
00:10:21.679 --> 00:10:24.240
I'm only gonna keep buying the guys that you know
209
00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:28.279
are my my top you know highlights that my top icons.
210
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:28.799
I don't.
211
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.759
I don't necessarily want every player every year, you know
212
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:34.039
what I mean, Like, unless you're like just one of
213
00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:37.480
those like set completion type people that I just like
214
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:38.879
collecting sets, then.
215
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:41.279
Sure, go for your go for your sets every year.
216
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.840
But sometimes it's like, you know, Okay, I got my one,
217
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.279
I got my autograph Rookie. I'm good. I don't need
218
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:47.279
another physical card.
219
00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:49.720
I mean really for me, that's I mean a lot
220
00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:52.039
of the stuff, it's unless it's the few of my
221
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.320
uh you know, icons of idols. If I have the
222
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:58.039
Rookie and it's autographed, like I don't know, to me,
223
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.919
that's that's, that's my highlight. I don't need another limited
224
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:03.600
to twenty five card of the same guy three four
225
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:04.159
years later.
226
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:06.000
I don't know. To me, it's it's.
227
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:08.720
Nice, but I don't. I'm not gonna go after it,
228
00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:11.960
you know. But the digital stuff it creates every year
229
00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:16.519
a whole nother reason to want to get locked into
230
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:18.320
it because you can do so much with it.
231
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:19.480
Like I because if you.
232
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:21.039
Told me there was a store that could take all
233
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:24.279
my physical stuff down to and then like say, they're
234
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:26.559
gonna throw it in a trash bind depending on what.
235
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:28.639
The value was and they're gonna give me.
236
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:30.759
A couple of packs for it, Like all right, Like
237
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.480
let's go. I'll start digging out my old stuff and
238
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:35.639
see what I could do with it. You know, I
239
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:38.440
don't know, maybe maybe in the future there since there's
240
00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:40.519
such a need, like since this is such a hot
241
00:11:40.559 --> 00:11:44.360
topic with collectibles and cards, maybe there's gonna be something
242
00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:46.559
like that. I know there is something where Obviously you
243
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.679
can go and sell your elite pieces, but sometimes you know,
244
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:53.159
you those you want to hold, so you're really just
245
00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:54.720
looking to do something with the junk.
246
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:57.080
But I mean, depending what it.
247
00:11:57.039 --> 00:11:59.600
Is, if you want the junkie, if you go around
248
00:11:59.639 --> 00:12:03.000
to the National you just look at all the garbage kids.
249
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:05.519
They're just overflowing with that.
250
00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:09.399
No one's getting anything affort those that actually bothers me
251
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:12.759
because I think you can repurpose them. You can give
252
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:15.320
them to some kids that we'll just want to mess
253
00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:18.799
around with them. I you know, we have a local
254
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:22.480
children's hospital here that I used to give donations too,
255
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:26.120
until they're like John, we've we've got quite enough, more
256
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:29.000
than enough, so we're gonna you know, we're gonna hold off,
257
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:31.559
and then I just some funds rather than the cards.
258
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:33.519
Themselves to help them out.
259
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:37.320
So so yeah, you know, yeah, not so much on
260
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:41.480
the physical side. And and that's that's a good point.
261
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:44.320
And uh, you know, like you said, I think anytime
262
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:47.000
there's money to be made, there's always gonna be that
263
00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:50.559
group that tries to to just come in and do that.
264
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:54.879
That's that's that's not a new phenomenon either. That's been around. Uh,
265
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:55.320
and it does.
266
00:12:55.399 --> 00:12:57.440
It's not even a hobby thing. It's whatever.
267
00:12:57.960 --> 00:13:02.720
Uh, you know, wall streets, a market, real estate. There's
268
00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:04.480
going to be those folks that.
269
00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:06.120
Aren't passionate about it.
270
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:09.559
They're just ce dollar signs and that's that's what they're
271
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:11.639
there for. And you know it might not be me
272
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:16.679
or you, but those people do exist, all right. You know,
273
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:20.120
we're coming down the home stretch here, I'm rocking the hat.
274
00:13:20.200 --> 00:13:23.799
Thank you to you. That's your podcast. You see the
275
00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:28.240
banner behind you. What do you collect? Kind of talk about,
276
00:13:28.679 --> 00:13:31.440
you know, how would how it all started? What was
277
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:34.919
the the inspiration you're doing? You're doing You don't need
278
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.240
me to tell you this, but it's a great show.
279
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:39.840
You've got some you know, you've had some big names
280
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:42.679
and some great guests on there. Just kind of talk
281
00:13:42.759 --> 00:13:46.559
about you know where it started and uh, you know
282
00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:47.399
how you've.
283
00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:49.799
Sort of built it up to to to what it
284
00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:51.159
is today.
285
00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:54.360
Thanks John, and thank you so much. It means so much.
286
00:13:54.440 --> 00:13:57.759
Obviously you you know they're a legend doing the podcasts
287
00:13:57.759 --> 00:13:58.720
and the collecting.
288
00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:02.919
That just means the that's when one set, it just
289
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:06.039
means them owning out one of the first Because if.
290
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:07.600
You didn't do good, if you didn't do it good,
291
00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:10.720
you wouldn't still be here. So don't that's it, It doesn't.
292
00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:14.639
I appreciate you know, I appreciate it. You know, every
293
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:17.039
year like the Ted Williams, every year you hit and
294
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:19.720
you know, you know, I.
295
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:23.120
Think my batting average is starting to decline a little
296
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:23.960
bit or plateau.
297
00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:26.879
Let me that I couldn't believe. I looked at his
298
00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:28.440
statu not that long ago.
299
00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:31.679
I saw what last season, only nine guys hit above
300
00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:33.039
three hundred of the MLB.
301
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:36.879
Crazy, I know, like I said, what, I couldn't believe this.
302
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.519
I know the average doesn't mean anything now when you
303
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:41.200
got all this other stuff going on. But I said
304
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:44.639
nine guys, I said, what is this? Average doesn't mean anything?
305
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:46.679
I mean, come on, guys, if you if you.
306
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:51.480
Still listen there's guys starting. There's guys that are everyday
307
00:14:51.559 --> 00:14:54.639
starters that back in the day would be cut.
308
00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:56.960
They won't even be set down in the minors.
309
00:14:57.000 --> 00:15:01.600
Be out where I yes released and you know, I
310
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:04.159
went to I think it was a Tigers game, but
311
00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:08.000
about two or three years ago before aj Hinch was there,
312
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:10.720
And you know, they post the lineups on the screen
313
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:14.320
before the game. And I'm a baseball guy and I'm
314
00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:16.919
like half of these guys, I like, I don't even
315
00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:20.759
know who is that? Where did this guy come from?
316
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:24.159
Like like I know, you know, so it's it's crazy.
317
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:27.000
But no, let's let's talk about what I don't want
318
00:15:27.000 --> 00:15:27.679
to talk about.
319
00:15:27.480 --> 00:15:28.080

Thanks for sticking with us, Let's return to the show.
332
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:15.519
But I don't know.
333
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.159
I just basically love, like I said, collecting all these
334
00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:21.679
different things. And my whole life was kind of you know,
335
00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:24.840
a variety of things that meant something to me, whether
336
00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:27.679
it's you know, I'm a big Elvis fan, so I
337
00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:31.639
got Elvis, you know, dolls and figures and things like
338
00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:35.080
that since I was a kid, the old old movies.
339
00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:35.799
Uh.
340
00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:38.240
So I you know, I have some collectibles of you know,
341
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:41.759
some of these tops cards that came out, these Americana cards.
342
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:46.399
They were just like swatches of movie star collectibles, like
343
00:16:46.799 --> 00:16:49.159
a swatch of their clothing. So it's like Mal Monroe
344
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:51.759
a piece of address and it's authenticated in the card.
345
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:55.559
Frank Sinatra, you know, I got James Dean, all this stuff.
346
00:16:55.600 --> 00:16:58.519
So I mean, in general, I like collecting this stuff.
347
00:16:58.519 --> 00:17:01.000
And I don't know, sometimes it's like it doesn't have
348
00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:03.759
like you would think. Sometimes you could tell somebody like, look,
349
00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:06.920
I got a Frank Sinatra piece of his clothing in
350
00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:09.039
an authenticated.
351
00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:09.920
Card, and you're like, oh my god, what is this?
352
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:11.759
Like a million dollars and you look and it's like
353
00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:14.799
one hundred and fifty bucks, like not even maybe seventy five.
354
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:17.160
But it's like who cares? Like I don't care of
355
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:20.160
the value. But when you talk to somebody who doesn't collect,
356
00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:21.960
they would think like, well, god, what is this guy
357
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:23.640
got a million dollars worth of cards?
358
00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:26.319
Meanwhile it's not. But it's like to me, like the
359
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:27.559
value doesn't mean much.
360
00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:29.440
So I said, you know what it's I'd like to find,
361
00:17:30.200 --> 00:17:32.799
you know, other collectors out there and talk about the
362
00:17:32.839 --> 00:17:35.319
things that they collect and why it means so much
363
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:37.039
to them, you know, like to me, you know, I
364
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:39.559
could explain a hundred of the things I got and why,
365
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:42.079
you know. So it's like, you know, sometimes it's like nice,
366
00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:44.880
like okay, great, yeah, my top favorite, Yeah, the Honus
367
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:48.799
Wagoner card, Mickey Manho's Rookie, Michael Jordan's Rookie, are like, yeah, okay, great.
368
00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:51.519
Everybody likes, you know, those.
369
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:54.720
Items that are priced out, uh and would die to
370
00:17:54.759 --> 00:17:58.000
get one. But like otherwise it's like I got just this,
371
00:17:58.160 --> 00:18:00.440
you know, little card that really doesn't mean much and
372
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:02.680
it sells for thirty five dollars, but I'm never getting
373
00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:05.400
rid of it. Okay, why I'm like, that's the stories
374
00:18:05.400 --> 00:18:08.200
that I like to tell and I like to hear,
375
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:11.200
and and not just in the card world, but in
376
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:14.319
all kinds of collectibles. You know, we got some episodes
377
00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:18.000
with Toy Collector's Pokemon Collectors, some.
378
00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:20.599
Of the big Laboo Boo dolls. These things are just
379
00:18:20.680 --> 00:18:23.480
like exploding. You know, it's to me, I listen, I'm
380
00:18:23.480 --> 00:18:24.359
telling you.
381
00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:26.960
This stuff is like today with the color reminds me.
382
00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:29.519
Tell me if this hits a hits home to you.
383
00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:32.079
I don't know much about the Laboo Boo. I know
384
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:35.519
of them, I've seen. It reminds me and I know
385
00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:38.039
you were like, it reminds me of.
386
00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:38.799
The Cabbage Patch.
387
00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:43.000
Absolutely, yeah, I had one. I had one as a kid.
388
00:18:43.079 --> 00:18:46.240
I don't know Jeffrey Montgomery. The guy was bold and
389
00:18:46.279 --> 00:18:48.319
that said. I don't know where his clothes off. He's
390
00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:51.640
walking around naked somewhere that dollar and my toy chest.
391
00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:56.960
I still remember his name, but exactly then.
392
00:18:57.039 --> 00:18:58.759
Yeah, you know, like we talked about, I think before
393
00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:02.400
we talk about like the garbage kids, all these phases, POGs.
394
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:04.400
Growing up, I had POGs.
395
00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:07.480
And all those others like whatever collectables. Well, I mean,
396
00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:09.480
but it's it's still there are some things out there.
397
00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:12.559
There's all like you know, bottle caps, there's all rememory.
398
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:14.920
There's like a whole bunch of collectible like your Mickey
399
00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:17.839
Manto bottle cap milk bottle caps that are still you know,
400
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:20.559
have a good price take to them, but they're not
401
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:23.720
obviously having the value of if you have his card.
402
00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:26.880
But you know, people just like certain things.
403
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:28.960
So that's what kind of I said, you know, I
404
00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:31.720
like just talking to people normally about this stuff, and
405
00:19:31.799 --> 00:19:34.559
I was like, well, you know, I basically try to
406
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:37.480
you know, partner with a lot of the digital collectible
407
00:19:38.079 --> 00:19:40.960
friends that I had who run the Collecting and Connecting
408
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:42.839
channel on YouTube.
409
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:45.240
So I was like, I want to put this show together.
410
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:48.119
You know we can maybe I can you know, host
411
00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:51.359
it and you know post it on the channel. Kind
412
00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:54.680
of also talk about digital and physical at times, just
413
00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:56.599
to try to cross the worlds, you know, kind of
414
00:19:56.640 --> 00:19:59.279
say like hey, you haven't seen this digital stuff before,
415
00:19:59.319 --> 00:20:01.079
and to someone who collects digital, hey you have to
416
00:20:01.119 --> 00:20:01.680
take a look at this.
417
00:20:01.720 --> 00:20:03.519
Physical kind of you know cards before.
418
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:06.960
So I like kind of bringing the worlds together kind
419
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:09.279
of like, you know, I'd love for it to be
420
00:20:09.400 --> 00:20:12.440
like a collector's lounge in a sense where everybody kind
421
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:15.720
of come, talk about what you got and learn something new,
422
00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:17.559
you know. I feel like every episode I try to
423
00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:20.960
kind of pair together guests where someone can learn something
424
00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:24.359
from them, where it's not just okay, all you know,
425
00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:26.839
three or four people in here all do the exact
426
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:29.640
same thing. So I like to kind of just craft
427
00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:31.720
in a way like, Okay, this person's probably gonna be
428
00:20:31.759 --> 00:20:34.440
interested in with this person has to say. This person
429
00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:40.000
designs cards, this person designs digital cards. So they're both artists,
430
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:43.279
but they're both working on different platforms. So that's you know,
431
00:20:43.359 --> 00:20:46.319
some of my episodes things like that where I'm kind
432
00:20:46.319 --> 00:20:49.200
of bringing all the worlds together and just kind of
433
00:20:49.240 --> 00:20:52.680
see everybody just you know, show off and talk about,
434
00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:55.160
you know, what matters and what means something to them.
435
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:58.480
So as it's been going, obviously a bunch of the guests,
436
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:01.319
I have a lot more recorded that I have to
437
00:21:01.319 --> 00:21:04.480
get through editing, and we release every other week, so
438
00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:09.359
two or three a month depending, So just love to
439
00:21:09.519 --> 00:21:12.720
just keep putting them out there, and I'll try to
440
00:21:12.759 --> 00:21:15.079
get to some shows and also talk to people right
441
00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:16.559
at like Comic Con.
442
00:21:17.279 --> 00:21:18.759
I went to the Bitcoin.
443
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:24.319
Conference fan Fest in New York City, just all those events. Also,
444
00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:26.279
I try to go there and do an episode, talk
445
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:29.359
to the collectors and the vendors, uh and just try
446
00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:33.559
to give a good overall discussion about where the industry
447
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:36.680
is going. Something that meant something to the person and
448
00:21:36.920 --> 00:21:40.480
you know, something that something different. So I've been enjoying it.
449
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:43.359
It's been fun and I'm so happy that you were
450
00:21:43.359 --> 00:21:47.440
there at the early episodes help you know, getting things rolling.
451
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:52.000
I'm sorry in one of oh geez, the first but listen,
452
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:55.559
I'm not just saying this, Pauly, but you know what
453
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:58.400
you do is not easy, right when you have people
454
00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:02.519
with different aspects to them, right that number one don't
455
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:05.680
know each other, maybe doesn't know what the other one
456
00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:09.119
collects or that lane, right, and you kind of like
457
00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:12.759
you're at the forefront of that and you're moderating that.
458
00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:15.519
That's not as easy as you make it look. Believe me,
459
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:20.000
I've tried it and probably not been as successful as
460
00:22:20.079 --> 00:22:23.200
you at doing that. And you do such a great job.
461
00:22:23.799 --> 00:22:26.119
Even I mean, I can speak to the episode I
462
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:30.400
was on where you know, it was just it was
463
00:22:30.440 --> 00:22:33.039
sort of seamless. I was a little worried being I'm
464
00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:36.799
more of a physical guy. But you know, those worries
465
00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:41.480
went away very quickly during the recording that episode when
466
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:45.240
you realize, you know, we all really have that collecting gene.
467
00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:49.240
While we may collect different things, we still really come
468
00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:53.039
from the same cloth. We just wear different clothes, you
469
00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:55.880
know what I mean. It might be a weird analogy,
470
00:22:55.920 --> 00:23:00.640
but use it, right And and what's great at your show?
471
00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:02.680
And I hope I do a little bit of that here,
472
00:23:02.799 --> 00:23:04.319
right is we can go off.
473
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:07.039
On a tangent. At one point during my opinion, we're.
474
00:23:06.839 --> 00:23:10.680
Talking about like the best pizzas and different different areas,
475
00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:13.880
right who And I don't care who you are unless
476
00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:16.680
you completely don't like pizza. Right, We're all gonna give
477
00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:21.160
like what the best pizza in our mind, in our opinions.
478
00:23:21.240 --> 00:23:21.440
Right.
479
00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:25.559
So, so that's the beauty of like when you get
480
00:23:25.599 --> 00:23:29.799
different people together, you can you can always find common ground,
481
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:33.160
right or common common interest, no matter even if the
482
00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:35.359
main interest is sort of different.
483
00:23:35.519 --> 00:23:38.559
And uh, I like you know, I like that you
484
00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:39.119
do that.
485
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:43.839
Uh And kind of with the the baseline that we collect, right,
486
00:23:43.880 --> 00:23:45.000
what do you enjoy?
487
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:47.680
What it? What moves your meter? Uh?
488
00:23:47.880 --> 00:23:51.240
So tocant again not easy to do and you make
489
00:23:51.279 --> 00:23:54.200
it look look easy, you know, like a no look
490
00:23:54.799 --> 00:23:58.480
stocked and passed them alone. And uh uh they made
491
00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:01.519
it look easy, but but not as easy as as
492
00:24:01.559 --> 00:24:05.680
you think. And uh, I think it's a testament to
493
00:24:05.720 --> 00:24:09.720
the growth of your podcast and uh why people enjoy
494
00:24:09.799 --> 00:24:13.880
it and you know, and and it's got to start
495
00:24:13.960 --> 00:24:16.960
right too with whoever the host is, right, they that
496
00:24:17.079 --> 00:24:19.799
passion comes from you kind of setting the tone. I
497
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:22.920
try to again, I try to do that here too,
498
00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:26.079
But you can't fake. You can't fake that stuff. It's
499
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:28.880
either real or it's there's no in between, is what
500
00:24:28.920 --> 00:24:33.559
I'm saying. So so I think people know. I hope
501
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:35.400
they get that from me. I know they get that
502
00:24:35.640 --> 00:24:39.000
from you for sure, that you love your passionate about
503
00:24:39.680 --> 00:24:44.279
collecting in general. While we have our favorites, we we
504

I want to I'll be all right on that show.52000:25:35.359 --> 00:25:38.759
But no, but that's you know, all Joe all. You52100:25:38.799 --> 00:25:40.880
know you're doing a tremendous job.52200:25:41.000 --> 00:25:41.279
Again.52300:25:41.359 --> 00:25:43.519
You don't need he necessarily tell you that, but I will.52400:25:43.640 --> 00:25:46.799
And uh, it's gonna be fun to kind of you know,52500:25:47.319 --> 00:25:50.759
watch where you go and again you know you you52600:25:50.880 --> 00:25:53.400
look like a natural when you do it again. You know,52700:25:53.440 --> 00:25:55.920
everyone said I'm gonna start a podcast, I'm gonna turn52800:25:55.960 --> 00:25:58.359
the mic on, I'm gonna turn the camera on, right,52900:25:58.960 --> 00:26:01.519
and I did the same thing. And and some of53000:26:01.519 --> 00:26:04.400
those early episode some might argue even the current ones53100:26:04.440 --> 00:26:08.359
are bad Newman, but but I mean early the early episodes,53200:26:08.359 --> 00:26:10.000
we were rough going.53300:26:10.079 --> 00:26:12.920
It's not again, it's not an easy for I guess.53400:26:12.680 --> 00:26:16.119
For some it's easier. I like to think through seven years,53500:26:16.160 --> 00:26:19.440
I've sort of uh you know, fine tuned some stuff53600:26:19.839 --> 00:26:22.799
my own skill set, but uh you you know, you53700:26:22.920 --> 00:26:26.359
hit the ground running and and look like a season ret.53800:26:26.519 --> 00:26:27.640
Right from Jump Street.53900:26:27.799 --> 00:26:31.000
So and uh, you know when when you have a54000:26:31.039 --> 00:26:33.319
show with collect like, I don't care who you are,54100:26:34.680 --> 00:26:38.160
most there's very few people that don't collect something. I mean,54200:26:38.200 --> 00:26:41.079
my wife's not a card person, but she collects like54300:26:41.160 --> 00:26:45.839
Disney stuff like Disney ornaments or or humbles and we54400:26:45.880 --> 00:26:49.559
have a so there's very I got everything.54500:26:49.160 --> 00:26:50.960
About a wome in the world. If that's the case.54600:26:51.079 --> 00:26:57.000
You know about these Disney Disney pinnacle I'm gonna I'm54700:26:57.000 --> 00:26:59.759
gonna say, you did your wife you want to create54800:26:59.759 --> 00:27:02.400
an Yeah, I don't think she's more like she would54900:27:02.480 --> 00:27:05.240
want the thing in like the curio cabinet.55000:27:05.519 --> 00:27:08.119
Okay, okay, all right, that's where she falls.55100:27:08.200 --> 00:27:12.279
But but dustin Disney is like a monster right when55200:27:12.359 --> 00:27:16.759
it comes to marketing and collectibles and people who collect it.55300:27:16.880 --> 00:27:20.079
Hey, before we wrap it up too, you know, I.55400:27:21.599 --> 00:27:24.240
Don't know the answer to this, and you're gonna, I said,55500:27:24.240 --> 00:27:27.599
save it for when we're recording. So I kind of55600:27:27.960 --> 00:27:30.680
guessed that what I thought it might be. But you55700:27:31.279 --> 00:27:34.599
see the name on your screen probably whiz wiz within55800:27:34.759 --> 00:27:36.839
what what where does that come from?55900:27:37.079 --> 00:27:38.880
It comes to my love of the sandwich.56000:27:38.920 --> 00:27:42.319
It's not the Philly cheese steak because I think it's56100:27:42.359 --> 00:27:44.519
only one way to order it. If you're in Philly,56200:27:44.839 --> 00:27:48.319
you got yourself, it's uh wiz, so you got cheese56300:27:48.359 --> 00:27:49.160
whiz and.56400:27:49.119 --> 00:27:51.079
Wit, as they call it, wit onions.56500:27:51.240 --> 00:27:54.480
So that's the that's the that's the short term as56600:27:54.519 --> 00:27:56.680
they if you're going there to order a cheese steak,56700:27:56.759 --> 00:27:58.880
you say wiz wit, they're gonna put the cheese whiz,56800:27:58.880 --> 00:28:00.000
They're gonna put the onions.56900:28:00.079 --> 00:28:00.680
You got some.57000:28:00.599 --> 00:28:04.319
People over there experimenting. They're putting Swiss, they're putting what57100:28:04.440 --> 00:28:07.640
out on you. If you're just chopping your Frankenstein in57200:28:07.680 --> 00:28:10.359
the sandwich, stop just go somewhere else, Go down the57300:28:10.400 --> 00:28:12.160
block to the deli in order to sandwich.57400:28:12.200 --> 00:28:14.400
Get out of here. You gotta order a cheese steak57500:28:14.480 --> 00:28:17.440
one way. And that's it. I mean, uh, it's to me,57600:28:17.480 --> 00:28:18.519
it's the perfect sandwich.57700:28:18.559 --> 00:28:21.400
It's hot, it is meat, you got bread or you57800:28:21.480 --> 00:28:23.519
got I mean, if it's if it's done right, you57900:28:23.519 --> 00:28:25.880
can't just tell me like, oh no, I don't know cheeseteaks.58000:28:25.880 --> 00:28:26.720
I don't really like it too.58100:28:26.720 --> 00:28:28.680
Well, if you order them for my Buffalo wild wings,58200:28:28.680 --> 00:28:30.599
I can understand why you don't love a cheese steak.58300:28:30.599 --> 00:28:32.920
But I mean when you go to the right place,58400:28:33.319 --> 00:28:35.440
you know, it's just what else is better than that?58500:28:35.680 --> 00:28:36.319
I mean, trust me.58600:28:36.359 --> 00:28:39.440
I mean these lines are long, right, it helps just58700:28:39.480 --> 00:28:40.839
speed the process along.58800:28:41.039 --> 00:28:46.759
That's it. Next, that's it. I don't waste time, you know,58900:28:46.839 --> 00:28:48.960
I need is to reconstruct the world.59000:28:49.000 --> 00:28:51.720
There, come on, go home, make a sandwich you want to.59100:28:52.400 --> 00:28:56.720
