1
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,320
Well, good morning, Welcome to
Hobby Hotline, episode two ninety eight.

2
00:00:39,039 --> 00:00:43,039
And this is the addition with Victor, Chris and me having no internet this

3
00:00:43,119 --> 00:00:51,479
morning. It came on literally like
three minutes ago. So that was a

4
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,640
restart of the computer, a boot
up, a load, and a get

5
00:00:54,679 --> 00:00:58,560
in the room. You know what, I think it was a pretty good

6
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:03,319
job. So I to be fair, I'm sweating, I'm at a breath,

7
00:01:03,439 --> 00:01:07,719
I'm like flourished, I'm nervous.
So you know, we're just gonna

8
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,760
get through this. Guys, what's
going on? How you doing? Chris?

9
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,799
Yeah, to be fair, it
is April the twentieth, and you

10
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:22,640
know what that means? Happy Earth
in everybody? Uh yeah, Happy Earth

11
00:01:22,879 --> 00:01:30,799
Day. No. I wish I
had a better excuse. I will a

12
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,640
drink of smoke, cleaning up the
neighborhood. I wish I could blame it

13
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:41,000
on anything, but thank you Exfinity
the problem. Yeah, Denny, Like

14
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,959
they say it where I work.
You got to work at least one day

15
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:49,959
a week. Let me tell you
something. I do a lot of shows

16
00:01:49,959 --> 00:01:55,879
on this I have never had Internet
down until the minute of panic. I've

17
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,959
had it down ten minutes before.
All Right, nobody cares about my internet.

18
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,359
Good morning sang everybody, stoops,
Mad City Brew, Philly, Joe

19
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,560
boll five. I love this one, Love this one. Aloha from Hawaii,

20
00:02:09,599 --> 00:02:15,120
Gordon where it's five a m.
First time live chatter. Nice,

21
00:02:15,159 --> 00:02:19,879
Well you got up at five am, but we're here every Saturday morning.

22
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:25,520
Yep, thanks for the welcome.
Good morning, Abel, good morning,

23
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:32,400
good morning chat, Good morning Steven. Oh a lot of chat already,

24
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:37,960
It's good. Yeah. Rubins has
taking a break from Strongsville show to peak

25
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,879
in Danny. We miss you,
guys. I wish I could be in

26
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:45,400
Strongsville so much. You have no
idea, but you know, sometimes stuff

27
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,000
happens in life. I've never been
there. I and I googled it yesterday

28
00:02:50,159 --> 00:02:53,240
and it's only like four hours from
my house, and I'm like, why

29
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,360
have I never gone to Strongsville?
Victor? Like I was at a place

30
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,560
last night at about eight o'clock at
night where I was I had a serious,

31
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,680
serious mental discussion about getting in the
car. Yeah, yeah, I

32
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,039
would have. I could have picked
you up, or we could have met

33
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:14,759
there or something. Mookie, I'm
spending earthday. You can serving cards and

34
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,919
top loaders that you know what doing
God's work. Mooki. We appreciate it.

35
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:22,879
You know, it's a hard job. Somebody's got to do it.

36
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,479
If Mooki's not doing and I think, well, we all want Rex.

37
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:30,400
Good morning from New Buffalo Valparaiso.
You're on the big screens. I apologize.

38
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,719
If our faces are on the big
screens, that may or may not

39
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:38,680
be helping business at the shops.
But if anybody's looking for cards in that

40
00:03:38,759 --> 00:03:44,520
area, sports card shop, vintage
goats. Ten hour drive from me to

41
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,520
Strongtion, that's a drive. Even
for me. It's it's six or seven,

42
00:03:49,759 --> 00:03:54,039
so ten hours, you know,
you might be into plane territory there.

43
00:03:54,439 --> 00:03:57,800
It's the heck of a show.
Though, if you're going for three

44
00:03:57,879 --> 00:04:00,680
days, maybe it's worth the drive. And if you're and if you're really

45
00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:04,000
buying and selling, it's probably worth
the drive. But to just check it

46
00:04:04,039 --> 00:04:09,199
out for the first time, good
oh gosh, ten hours is a hike.

47
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,879
But Victor, I will tell you
phenomenal vintage show. Yeah, it

48
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,199
used to be more of a speakeasy
type of feel, you know, but

49
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:25,199
it's gotten as it's gotten out a
little bit vintage goods. I also have

50
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:29,959
no money. That's another good point. YEA factor. You know what,

51
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,480
when you talk to dealers that comes
up. That's a good one. You

52
00:04:32,519 --> 00:04:40,439
can't go to Strongsville with one hundred
dollars apparently, you know what you long

53
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:46,839
nineteen seventy eight common beater. Uh. They used to have a rule that

54
00:04:46,879 --> 00:04:50,720
you couldn't bring in anything that was
not vintage. It was a hard fast

55
00:04:50,800 --> 00:05:00,199
rule, which which to me was
both so something and so cool. It

56
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,879
was. It was, uh,
like I said, it really had a

57
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,920
speakeasy feel to it. They moved
into a new venue this year, and

58
00:05:08,319 --> 00:05:13,319
uh, absolutely curious to see how
that works out. Yes, this is

59
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:18,519
a book I recommend all the time, The Bubblegum card Wares. Yes,

60
00:05:18,879 --> 00:05:25,920
Uh, definitely a here into the
history of of of the cards and specifically

61
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:34,160
the fifties Tops Bowman battles that is
worth a read. Some guy logan logan

62
00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:44,600
Ward says, good morning, fellow
hobby hotliners, good morning Halts. And

63
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,319
I think belated birthday in there also, so the belated birthday Logan. Here's

64
00:05:49,319 --> 00:05:54,079
a plot twist for your internet issue
there, Danny, I have no idea

65
00:05:54,079 --> 00:05:58,920
what we're talking about. Oh dude, we're just winging it, folks.

66
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:05,759
This this is not a problem Victor, Victor, I can't. I have

67
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,879
years that I don't know what I
thought. All right, just a disclaimer

68
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:15,519
before we get started. We're absolutely
fine. Have you guys heard of Victor

69
00:06:15,519 --> 00:06:26,519
Webber Yama? I believe so.
Tall guy, Yeah, tall guy,

70
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:32,879
French. Yeah. He had a
tops NFT sell for one hundred and fifty

71
00:06:32,959 --> 00:06:41,399
thousand and a card sell for like
a half a million. I love Wemby.

72
00:06:42,199 --> 00:06:45,759
Just been drowning in my stars from
watching people look at six hundred thousand

73
00:06:45,759 --> 00:06:49,120
dollars cards while I look at my
fifty five tops Wally Moon and Don Mossy.

74
00:06:49,519 --> 00:06:55,720
Yeah, Vin, Yeah, Strongsville
will humble you. Whatever your collection

75
00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:00,959
is, Strongsville will humble you.
Yes. What kind of ice cream do

76
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,839
you like? Victor? I think
he's easing into the topics for you,

77
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:13,360
is what he's doing, Victor.
Your ice cream A choice is oh man

78
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:19,720
oreole, Oh nice pick solid,
Chris more of a peanut, butter ripple

79
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:29,279
man myself. So Victor wins.
Here's so getting back to Wenby, and

80
00:07:29,279 --> 00:07:31,720
I am going to keep his training
on the tracks today. Wemby eventually will

81
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,959
put an end to the Lebron versus
Goat discussion. Wow, that's a lot

82
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:41,480
of pressure on. Wow, that's
a lot of pressure on around that discussion.

83
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:47,759
So Victor, let's talk rookies in
the NBA. I mean, there's

84
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,600
a lot of pressure on this guy. I get it. But you're talking

85
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:57,160
about buying a house or buying a
car. Yeah, I mean, and

86
00:07:57,439 --> 00:08:05,639
and please I understand it's it's it's
a limited special card. My understanding is

87
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,720
not auto. Chris, I don't
know if you're up on this, but

88
00:08:09,959 --> 00:08:15,279
my understanding is not auto. And
in the Top's NFT block top shot,

89
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:20,079
his top shot is still around and
somebody paid one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

90
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,000
I don't know. Are there people
in the hobby that are just they

91
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,920
see the Honus Wagner and they just
think that they're in on the next one.

92
00:08:28,519 --> 00:08:31,720
I mean, I don't want to
knock fit. I think there is

93
00:08:31,759 --> 00:08:37,919
some fomo involved here. Okay.
Yeah, So in general, like Kitlyn

94
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,240
Clark going for a half million dollars, not a shot at Kaitlyn Clark,

95
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,559
A lot of money for somebody who's
yet to play a game, I'm going

96
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,279
to say the same thing in baseball
prospects. Prospecting in general, I think

97
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,759
runs a little out of control.
So I'm using Wenby as an example,

98
00:08:50,879 --> 00:08:56,519
and it's not a shot at him. But yeah, here we go six

99
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,240
hundred K for an M one on
one nineteen sixteen, Baby Ruth in an

100
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:05,720
SGC three and a half. Wow, h slash. I want to see

101
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:11,320
an SGC, right, would you
rather? There you go? Victor a

102
00:09:11,399 --> 00:09:22,039
one of one by any chance?
Yeahs the Shimmer one of one. Victor

103
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:28,320
has no idea what we're talking about. I'm actually dropping a video on Sunday

104
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:33,240
about But really, I think a
lot of it has to do with a

105
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,960
couple of things. Number one is
just kind of where the market is at,

106
00:09:37,039 --> 00:09:41,399
right. There's a different market out
there that has a different budget than

107
00:09:41,399 --> 00:09:46,879
most people, and and that creates, uh, some competition with those who

108
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:50,360
have deep pockets. Uh. It's
a flex purchase, right and and that's

109
00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:54,360
okay. I mean there's room for
them in the space, right. Uh.

110
00:09:54,399 --> 00:10:01,159
But also I think it's the unicorn
that Victor wiben Yama is becoming.

111
00:10:01,799 --> 00:10:07,840
I've been keeping a close eye on
his play, really critiquing his play.

112
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:13,120
In my opinion, the kid's the
real deal, and he has a body

113
00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:18,960
type and an aggression about his play
that I think he's going to make an

114
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,879
impact on the game, and he's
going to make an impact on the hobby.

115
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,639
And that's as of April twentieth,
twenty twenty four, subject to change,

116
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:31,399
right, But the kid is impressive. Well, I'm going to put

117
00:10:31,399 --> 00:10:35,440
this question at you. Then,
is this too far to say? Well

118
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:43,200
he passed Lebroad and MJ. Yeah, that's too far. He's great,

119
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:50,360
he's great, he's great. Not
quite that great here we are. Rex

120
00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:58,480
says we sold a Wemby auto redemption
early of nineteen. K. Wow.

121
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:03,399
I mean, you know what if
you're running a store, nice good on

122
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,120
you, and this is a fair
question, and this is, you know,

123
00:11:07,519 --> 00:11:09,720
probably something the hobby doesn't talk about
enough. I wonder how many of

124
00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:15,399
these big modern card sales are real, verifiable sales. Would we be naive

125
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,200
to think that some of the auction
houses, you know, do some of

126
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,000
it for marketing, or some of
the sales don't get paid for on eBay?

127
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,039
You know, it gets shilled up. Yeah, it happened in the

128
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,799
hobby in the past, you know, are we naive to think it would

129
00:11:28,799 --> 00:11:33,480
never happen again? So I don't
know. I'm not saying that Wenby card

130
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,799
is the example of that or rex. That's a good point in general.

131
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:43,440
Yeah, it is a good point. But it also bears fact of the

132
00:11:43,639 --> 00:11:48,879
value that card lighter provides where they
actually go in depth into those kind of

133
00:11:48,879 --> 00:11:52,960
purchases to verify it, those kind
of sales. So yeah, really,

134
00:11:54,320 --> 00:12:01,120
but Twitter does not go that far. They'll just type stuff out right away.

135
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,120
You gotta you gotta find. But
a half million is wild for a

136
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,039
modern basketball card. Half million,
I'm sorry, half millions wild for any

137
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:16,000
card, even if it's vintage.
And I'm a vintage guy. What about

138
00:12:16,039 --> 00:12:20,919
the Wemby versus Curly Neil debate.
That's hysterical. Curly Neil, I have

139
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:28,120
the same number of rings. Oh
is that a Homer line? You know

140
00:12:28,159 --> 00:12:35,639
who Curly Neil is? Yes,
Harlem Globe Trotter Trotters. Yes, well

141
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,879
they beat Washington General's every game.
Yeah, that's true, so they're kind

142
00:12:39,879 --> 00:12:48,000
of undefeated, you know. And
that you're a sports cards what's going on?

143
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,600
Excited to see Johnnyman Syracuse show tomorrow? One time? The whole Hobby

144
00:12:52,639 --> 00:12:58,159
Holline cruise should descend on Syracuse.
I think I can safely say the whole

145
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:03,960
Hobby Holline crue if we ever decid. It will not be Syracuse. We

146
00:13:03,039 --> 00:13:07,679
love you Syracuse. But I heard
that after ten p m. Nothing's open

147
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:13,159
once Applebee's closes. So you know, that's just that's just that's just what

148
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,879
I heard. You guys ever been
up there before? My wife went to

149
00:13:16,919 --> 00:13:24,200
Ithaca, which was not But if
you ever made the pilgrimage to Jefferson Burdick's

150
00:13:24,159 --> 00:13:28,440
gravestone, you're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna pull pull out the flex

151
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:33,600
here. I'm so you your video. I did that years ago, and

152
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,320
you have a link to your video. I want to put that. It's

153
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,440
actually a two part video. I'll
I'll see if I can find it.

154
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:48,159
If it's if you can find it. Uh, do you think Jackson Holly

155
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,840
will turn it around? Well?
Speaking of high price prospects, this is

156
00:13:50,919 --> 00:13:56,720
right in my backyard here, Yes, I think I'll turn it around.

157
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:01,960
They're the list of players and they
went through the have had a hiccup at

158
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,759
the start of their career and still
had good careers. I mean, is

159
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:11,200
tremendous, Victor. I mean,
you know, there's probably better than anybody.

160
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,759
Do you can you judge a rookie's
performance after two weeks? No,

161
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,840
definitely not. And it's just again, you know, the the hype that

162
00:14:20,919 --> 00:14:26,240
we've been putting on this kid and
the pressure that this kid is under is

163
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:31,600
just I mean, it's it's difficult
to be that age. And some do

164
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,919
right, but the majority, when
you look at it, when when a

165
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,840
kid comes up where his dad was
a ballplayer, he comes up with an

166
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:45,120
enormous amount of pressure. Most of
them do not really make it into the

167
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,360
big leagues. Now, there are
some unicorns, you know, Ken Griffy

168
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:54,159
Junior obviously that that did not affect
him at all. But for the majority,

169
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,000
man, when when you're coming in
with that much pressure, it's it's

170
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:03,240
hard to surpass. Hobby loves the
idea of a legacy player looking for the

171
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:07,200
next Griffy. I'll say Trout was
that guy, and then looking for the

172
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,279
next Trout. I know everybody likes
to diss on Trout's Trout the last couple

173
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,799
of years. Man, he's having
a good season too, the guy Victor.

174
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:16,799
I gotta tell you, I think
the kid's gonna have a chance.

175
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,720
Yeah, Crout's a pretty good ballplayer. He's coming out focused this year.

176
00:15:22,759 --> 00:15:28,639
Man. Yeah, Caitlin Clark better
than Wemby hobby wise, they're both exploded.

177
00:15:28,799 --> 00:15:33,519
You know, Time magazine does their
top one hundred people of the year.

178
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:39,039
I think if we did the hobby's
top ten, you know, players

179
00:15:39,039 --> 00:15:45,159
that affected cards this year, they
might both make it on an unofficial list

180
00:15:46,799 --> 00:15:52,639
for NBA licensed products. Wemby will
have only fifty one of one on one

181
00:15:52,799 --> 00:15:58,240
as he will have no autos due
to his fanatics exclusive when compared with other

182
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,039
rookies who have base and autos.
That's a good point. That's an excellent

183
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,360
point. We have a great chat. Doesn't that really matter though, because

184
00:16:04,559 --> 00:16:11,519
you know one of one did sell
without an autograph for six hundred thousand.

185
00:16:11,559 --> 00:16:18,240
How much and have does that have
to do with having no autographs in the

186
00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:25,159
licensed product? You know? Is
it like I love the one you're with,

187
00:16:25,399 --> 00:16:27,559
you know, if you can't be
with the one you love, love

188
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,559
the one you're with, you know, if you can't get that rookie auto.

189
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:33,519
It is what it is. I
just put in comments. By the

190
00:16:33,519 --> 00:16:37,200
way, Chris, I sure hope
this is the link to the Jefferson birding

191
00:16:37,279 --> 00:16:44,879
video and I to part one because
I just put it up there. This

192
00:16:44,919 --> 00:16:48,440
is like your vacation to the beach, you know, Yeah, I would

193
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,519
like to apologize. And people go
to the beach, some people go to

194
00:16:51,559 --> 00:16:56,919
the mountains. I go to graveyards
of former collectors. Well, well,

195
00:16:56,279 --> 00:17:00,039
do a little history lesson. Give
me the elevator hitch for those who don't

196
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:06,880
know the history of the great Jefferson
Verdick. Uh. Jefferson Burdick was probably

197
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,720
the greatest card collector ever lived.
He lived in He worked a blue collar

198
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:22,039
job in in UH Syracuse and created
and just collected cards, not just sports

199
00:17:22,079 --> 00:17:29,640
cards, but also catalogued them and
tried to track them. He's the guy

200
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:37,079
that came up with the numbering for
certain sets, like the American Tobacco Company

201
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:44,279
baseball set from nineteen oh nine is
Jefferson Burdick gave it the T two O

202
00:17:44,519 --> 00:17:52,759
six name T for Tobacco two O
six for, which explains why it's cards

203
00:17:52,799 --> 00:17:56,319
that look alike but are not necessarily
from the same set at the same time.

204
00:17:56,519 --> 00:18:03,119
Rights, it's more of more of
a overseeing catalog which we which we

205
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,680
still use to this day. Yeah, we still use the terminology. So

206
00:18:07,519 --> 00:18:10,519
yeah. Anyway, So shout shout
out to you for going out and paying

207
00:18:11,079 --> 00:18:18,680
respects to Jefferson Verdick. A couple
of great comments here able just following up,

208
00:18:18,759 --> 00:18:22,519
Yes, the base rookie sold a
half a million dollars. I'll phrase

209
00:18:22,559 --> 00:18:27,559
it that way because we casually say
five hundred thousand around heretic. Yeah,

210
00:18:27,599 --> 00:18:30,519
but I can attribute that prices.
He does not have an auto one on

211
00:18:30,519 --> 00:18:33,640
one is an alternate option. Well, there's a great question for you,

212
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:38,799
Victor. Is there a hierarchy of
rookie love Is it like you know,

213
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:47,160
auto patch then auto then then then
patch then nothing you know, Yeah,

214
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:52,759
definitely, definitely, definitely there's a
there's a greater demand for those who can

215
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:57,119
afford that kind of thing. I
don't even bother looking anymore because it's it's

216
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:02,920
out of my budget, right,
So I'm more of a base card kind

217
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:07,640
of guy with or one of the
parallels. But yeah, there's a ranking.

218
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,400
There's a ranking between those. Sure, But I will say, and

219
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,680
this is where I differentiate things when
it comes to our pas and that sort

220
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:21,559
of thing. A lot of us
call it rookie card, but a lot

221
00:19:21,559 --> 00:19:23,160
of it is really those are inserts. Those are cards, you know,

222
00:19:23,319 --> 00:19:26,880
uh uh, True, rookie card
is a card that is comes from the

223
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:32,640
base set, and a lot of
these things are actually insert cards, and

224
00:19:33,279 --> 00:19:36,480
you know, we we deem them
as rookie cards. But it all depends

225
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,960
on what you know, lens you're
looking through. But yeah, there's definitely

226
00:19:40,039 --> 00:19:44,000
a higher demand for those who can
afford it. Right that r P A

227
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,559
man, there's nothing like an r
P A Right, that's the top cards

228
00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:52,200
wise, that luxury, that's that's
the I don't even know what the what

229
00:19:52,279 --> 00:19:55,839
the top selling card is these days. We bought, we bought to used

230
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:03,640
a toy and I'd like to recommend
them highly fantastic cars. And a lot

231
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,119
of it is these, you know, the contract issues that we're still having.

232
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,359
I just don't understand why this stuff
doesn't get resolved or some kind of

233
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:17,359
compromise or some kind of amendment is
made to to help us clear this up

234
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:22,960
so that we are doing what's right
towards the hobby and not so much making

235
00:20:22,039 --> 00:20:26,880
this a legal battle. You know, it's a shame, it really is,

236
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:33,720
and the collectors are the ones who
are suffering the consequences unfortunately. All

237
00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:37,480
right, thank you for clearing that
up, because I do like the hobby

238
00:20:38,039 --> 00:20:42,240
use slang a rookie card far too
much in your presence. I try to

239
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:52,839
get my language correct and you don't
have to man out of respect. You

240
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,599
work way too hard for me to
throw that around casually. No pressure at

241
00:20:57,599 --> 00:21:02,400
all for Jackson Holliday when you're I
was sitting in the first world or two.

242
00:21:02,799 --> 00:21:07,119
She give the kids some room.
Yeah, just just a wife and

243
00:21:06,759 --> 00:21:10,279
dad. Dad. And by the
way, the woman next to the dad

244
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,920
was Jackson's wife. There was some
confusion on this. If you saw the

245
00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:18,960
video of Visit Bats, it's Matt
Holliday, Jackson's wife. I don't know

246
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:25,039
her name, not that, not
Jackson and his mother, not Matt and

247
00:21:25,079 --> 00:21:29,799
his in Jackson's mother. There was
a lot of people who did highlights who

248
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,400
on TV, and it's become a
kind of a funny thing here in Baltimore.

249
00:21:33,599 --> 00:21:37,440
Okay, all right, we're gonna
blow up the chat room here,

250
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,119
guys. There was something with Kurt's
Cardcare. I don't know if anybody heard

251
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:48,079
this week, a little bit of
news that that that the Twitter and Instagram

252
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,680
verse had no reaction to. But
we're gonna bring it up. I think

253
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:56,680
anyway. Kurt's Cardcare had some had
some cards deactivated. I love that term.

254
00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:03,680
It sounds so so efficient. There
the certain numbers were deactivated because of

255
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:12,119
the process used to clean them,
and they've made a statement basically saying that

256
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:19,359
they don't accept that type of stuff. Now this is who now see Mokie,

257
00:22:19,599 --> 00:22:23,839
I'm already missing Strong as well.
Next level right here, folks,

258
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:30,799
Uh, this is live live from
from Cleveland. Uh. I heard Kurt's

259
00:22:30,839 --> 00:22:33,200
cardcare was that Strong Will show big
news on that front this way? Yes,

260
00:22:36,079 --> 00:22:38,240
if Kurt was a Strong as Will, that would be crazy. I

261
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:45,400
wonder if that's a joke from MOOKI
probably run them out of there on the

262
00:22:45,519 --> 00:22:48,279
rail probably. Yeah, you never
know, you never know. He's had

263
00:22:48,279 --> 00:22:53,079
a lot of support, so you
know, I don't I really don't know

264
00:22:53,119 --> 00:23:00,960
where I fall in this story.
The the deactivation coming before a public statement

265
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:07,440
forgetting everything else, when you know
that it's going to cause this much chatter.

266
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,680
I don't know if that was the
best way for PSA to handle the

267
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:18,599
marketing side of it. That being
said, there's the whole conversation on you

268
00:23:18,599 --> 00:23:22,680
know, how how we treat cards, what's what's allowed, what's not allowed?

269
00:23:22,799 --> 00:23:27,119
And I put aloud in air quotes
here because p s A, I

270
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:32,759
guess are the ultimate judgers on what
they'll grade. But you know, in

271
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,279
general, what do you what do
you you know, Chris, how do

272
00:23:36,279 --> 00:23:40,359
you what do you feel about?
You know, card cleaning? Explain,

273
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:45,359
first of all, explain what deactivating
means. They took the certain number and

274
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,640
if you now look it up,
it will say this certain number is not

275
00:23:48,759 --> 00:23:52,599
valid. It has been deactivated,
and it's not The card is still out

276
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,759
there in the slab. Yes,
yes, which is why always check your

277
00:23:56,759 --> 00:24:03,200
shirt numbers when you buy it a
slab card. Guys, make sure it's

278
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:07,240
it's legitimate, and make sure it's
not deactivated. There's your p s.

279
00:24:07,319 --> 00:24:18,000
A. Oh that was a bad
pun. Go ahead, Chris Kurt's cards

280
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:30,160
being deactivated because of the cleaning.
Ah, I mean, I I don't

281
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,880
understand why you would want to get
your cards clean. I think there's too

282
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:45,000
much at risk there. If if
you send this card a card to this

283
00:24:45,039 --> 00:24:53,480
guy Kurt right, and he winds
up damaging your card even more with his

284
00:24:55,759 --> 00:25:00,000
whatever he uses. I don't know
how many he does that. Think it's

285
00:25:00,039 --> 00:25:03,279
hard. It's either his own cards
or you have to know him. I

286
00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:10,039
think you know. But Victory,
I know you have some thoughts. But

287
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,440
Chad says, I've cleaned my cards
with a microfiber cloth. But that's it.

288
00:25:14,519 --> 00:25:21,039
I've never used chemicals and never will
victory your thoughts on this whole situation

289
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:25,119
in card cleaning in general. I
guess, man, that's a loaded question,

290
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:30,240
dude. That's really I'm getting put
on the stand, right hobby hotline?

291
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,880
Yeah yeah, Well here's the thing. I got a couple of things.

292
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:37,799
Number one, with the deactivation thing, I really questioned the source right,

293
00:25:38,279 --> 00:25:42,279
and it was posted on social media
by some Tiffany cards I don't know

294
00:25:42,519 --> 00:25:48,359
them. I don't know, and
this didn't really come from Kurt's Cardcare and

295
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,119
it really wasn't didn't come from PSAU
and I was on a date night with

296
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,279
my wife last night, so I
really don't I'm not up to snuff.

297
00:25:56,559 --> 00:26:00,480
Is that actual fact? But I'm
questioning the source. If somebody in the

298
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:07,079
chat can verify yes, PSA confirmed
this or Kurt's Cardcare confirmed this, I

299
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:11,960
would be really glad to know if
that's legit. But that's the first thing

300
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:18,559
I questioned. But overall this battle, that this debate that the hobby is

301
00:26:18,599 --> 00:26:22,759
having with cleaning and non cleaning,
and there's so many layers to this,

302
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:30,519
but I really lean on a principle
that really is for let's just let me

303
00:26:30,559 --> 00:26:37,319
call it what it is. It's
a biblical principle, okay, and what

304
00:26:37,559 --> 00:26:41,799
the way I view it is.
It is hard to tell, supposedly if

305
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:47,160
a card has been doctored up by
this stuff. But I'm of the opinion

306
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,759
that if there is no law written
on it, and I guess this is

307
00:26:52,799 --> 00:27:00,960
making a case for leadership that makes
actual big decisions, right. But if

308
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,559
there is no law written on this, then it's a matter of conviction.

309
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:11,480
And each individual person is going to
have their own individual conviction where I might

310
00:27:11,519 --> 00:27:17,359
think it's wrong one hundred percent and
I'll scream it from the mountaintops, but

311
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:22,079
other people might think that it's okay
because that is their conviction on this process.

312
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:27,119
There is no law that says you
shall not right. So now it's

313
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:32,559
a matter of conviction. And here's
the other kick in the teeth. When

314
00:27:32,559 --> 00:27:40,519
it comes to convictions. We should
not be arguing about our own convictions.

315
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,440
There is a freedom that is given
a boundary where we are allowed to have

316
00:27:45,519 --> 00:27:51,559
our own personal convictions on a matter, and so we shouldn't. I shouldn't

317
00:27:51,599 --> 00:27:56,279
criticize you for having your conviction,
and you shouldn't be criticizing me for having

318
00:27:56,319 --> 00:27:59,960
mine. And so then if that's
the case, then let's make a law

319
00:28:00,039 --> 00:28:03,400
on it. Right, Let's let's
and and I guess who does that come

320
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:07,880
from? You know, you can't
ask the hobby because in the hobby it's

321
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,160
subjective. It's everybody has their own
opinion on the matter. You put it

322
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,200
on Twitter right now, you'd have
one hundred answers before we were off the

323
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:19,920
air. Some people think it's a
large majority of people think that it's okay,

324
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:25,400
and another large majority of the people
think it's not. And so that's

325
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,720
where we're at. Yep. And
and for full disclosure, I'm involved in

326
00:28:30,759 --> 00:28:34,200
the Hobby News Daily, which has
had articles and videos featuring Kurt, So

327
00:28:34,319 --> 00:28:41,400
if you want to hear from him
before all this happened, he's an interesting

328
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:47,039
guy to listen to, and it's
I think well worth your time to see

329
00:28:47,079 --> 00:28:49,599
any video that he's been a part
of directly and get to know the person

330
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:56,480
before you before you judge. I
mean, I've I've used spit. I

331
00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,720
mean, but isn't that I mean, there's stomach as that's when we grew

332
00:29:00,799 --> 00:29:03,640
up. We walked uphill to school. We didn't have these chemicals. We

333
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:08,920
had to do it with our own
salival we had. I don't know what's

334
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,359
in our saliva, man, I
mean we got stomach acid and all this

335
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:18,960
other food that we ate. So
so let me ask an honest question to

336
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:22,519
you guys. Do you feel differently
if you're doing it to a card and

337
00:29:22,559 --> 00:29:26,599
then selling it versus if you bought
a card and knowing that it was already

338
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:32,799
done. Does that change how you
feel? Would you would you not buy

339
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,559
the card or do? Or does
that not affect you once it's graded and

340
00:29:36,599 --> 00:29:41,279
if it greades? Well, if
I really really needed that card to like

341
00:29:41,759 --> 00:29:48,880
there we go, that's a collector
and I know that it's been you know,

342
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:56,680
doctored a little bit, I might
take it knowing that it's I might

343
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:02,599
buy it knowing that it's that it's
doctor. I mean, I'm probably because

344
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,680
it's for my own personal collection.
I'm probably not even not gonna sub it

345
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:15,000
for for grading, So why not? It also depends on the price.

346
00:30:15,079 --> 00:30:18,480
I mean, if I know that
a card has been doctored a bit,

347
00:30:21,359 --> 00:30:23,799
I better be getting a discount on
that too. So well, that's a

348
00:30:23,799 --> 00:30:26,880
fair point. Same thing on a
trim card, I think I think that's

349
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,960
a that's a fair if it's labeled
authentic, you know, altered or something

350
00:30:32,039 --> 00:30:37,480
like that. There's already a category
for that victory. I think that this

351
00:30:37,559 --> 00:30:42,480
is this is the hobby reality to
to uh this conversation is there is a

352
00:30:42,519 --> 00:30:45,240
p s A law. You know, I'd like to see. I'd like

353
00:30:45,279 --> 00:30:51,599
to see the resource. I mean
if somebody the quote that they put out

354
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,880
and I tried to find it and
could not find it last night. I

355
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,519
think Ryan Huge put out a quote
and i'll, i'll, I will paraphrase

356
00:31:00,599 --> 00:31:04,640
something to the effect of, uh, you know, we do not support

357
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:10,640
altering cards and you know, uh
et cetera, et cetera, uh a

358
00:31:10,759 --> 00:31:15,000
post on on social media. I
mean trying to find if somebody can put

359
00:31:15,079 --> 00:31:18,640
up a link or to it.
I don't want to paraphrase without having the

360
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,400
link, and I would. I
couldn't find it when I went to look

361
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,039
for it last night, real quick. I think they opened up a can

362
00:31:23,039 --> 00:31:26,920
of worms. To be honest with
you guys, this this has been going

363
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,599
on for so long, you know, and the concerns of what's the chemical

364
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,160
going to do long term? Listen, long term is here. If it

365
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,880
was an issued long term I think
we would have we would have seen the

366
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:42,000
long term side effects of it,
because this has been going on, to

367
00:31:42,079 --> 00:31:48,720
my knowledge, for several decades and
it's just now it's being monetized now and

368
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:56,559
and that's where the issues are coming
up. And uh, you know here

369
00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,119
Wrex makes a you know point.
The question is now can they actually at

370
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:05,480
tech the chemicals and do they actively
even try? I guess there's no process

371
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:09,000
to detect the chemicals in any grating
cot and that takes more technology, it

372
00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:14,079
takes more time to create a card, and that's going to mean more money,

373
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:19,400
yep, because somebody is going to
pay for that. And I will

374
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:24,039
say that I think part of the
whole story here is that Kurt made a

375
00:32:24,119 --> 00:32:30,480
video of how he was doing this. And I think, as a human

376
00:32:30,599 --> 00:32:38,079
being and victor to your eloquent point
you made earlier, people have a visceral

377
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:43,319
reaction when they hear something, and
it's how do you handle your reaction?

378
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:47,000
And unfortunately in the hobby, everybody
goes on and has that quick reaction before

379
00:32:47,039 --> 00:32:51,599
I think they really take a deep
breath and figure out what's going on.

380
00:32:52,440 --> 00:33:05,279
Honus Wagner or Sgcat or she was
the first one was trimmed. The very

381
00:33:05,279 --> 00:33:08,279
first honest Wagger was trimm Yeah,
this is to Viter's point, this is

382
00:33:08,279 --> 00:33:15,519
not new either. Yeah, and
it's flagrant deception. You know, the

383
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:21,519
question is flagrant deception? Is that
an oxymoron? If it's flagrant is a

384
00:33:21,559 --> 00:33:23,880
deception? Yeah, and I think
I think it's you know, trimming is

385
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:30,240
obviously right, but there's certain things
that we have to declare that it's okay,

386
00:33:30,319 --> 00:33:35,720
and certain things that are not obviously
trimming should should never be allowed,

387
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,559
you know, dipping it in fluid, I mean, and pressing it with

388
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:44,119
I don't know, man, we
have to we have to sit down and

389
00:33:44,119 --> 00:33:46,400
write these things out. In my
opinion, there should be a thing on

390
00:33:46,599 --> 00:33:52,759
on these Third, the authentication websites, we're a page where it actually spells

391
00:33:52,799 --> 00:33:57,559
out you know this is not allowed. And we catch this, it's going

392
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,160
to be gone. This is okay
to do though. You can wipe it

393
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:04,960
down with a microfiber clock. You
can, you know, spit or what

394
00:34:05,119 --> 00:34:09,480
have you. I'd also like to
point out that the logan is very funny

395
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,880
in the chat. I don't know
that I can put it on screen,

396
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,320
but if you if you'd like to
follow a separate conversation and not listen to

397
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:25,280
us, logan. Logan's got open
mic and Mike going, uh okay doing

398
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,800
his thing, and if you hear
me laugh out loud, it might be

399
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:34,880
because of that. This to Victor's
point, and now I lost the yeah

400
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,360
point. Right here we go.
Why does the fifty three central page smell

401
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:50,800
like keyboard duster? You know,
there are there are some things that you

402
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,559
know with this whole story that you
just to laugh. I guys, we're

403
00:34:53,559 --> 00:34:58,280
talking about cardboard here. You know
it's okay to laugh. Uh, here's

404
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,639
a good one. Ps I could
add it to the flip, say it

405
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:07,000
came from Kurt. Let the buyer
decides. You know what, I'd still

406
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,239
say we got the best chair room. Yeah, yeah, I mean,

407
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:17,639
is P s A now going to
have to hire like smellers. We're gonna

408
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:22,960
get like a vintage card. They'll
be like a dog. Trained dogs get

409
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:30,320
like a drug sniffing dog to smell
for like acetone or lighter fluid or whatever,

410
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:37,960
nail polish or removal or whatever they
put on those things. The battery

411
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,800
says, I've heard her. Kurt's
formula was actually derived from Victor Saliva.

412
00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:49,400
It's like the original recipe. Hey, guys. The P. S A

413
00:35:49,519 --> 00:35:57,760
Canine Unit will have you. Guys
are out of control today. This this

414
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,679
is but you know what, I
think this speaks to how much people care

415
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:04,320
about it. Yeah, you know, I really think if nobody was passionate,

416
00:36:04,599 --> 00:36:07,159
nobody would have a comment on it. And I think to your point,

417
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,199
Victor, every you know, whether
it's one side or the other,

418
00:36:09,599 --> 00:36:15,079
or or if you're totally ambivalent and
don't care about the topic, you know

419
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:20,159
there there is something about this that
I think hits us all because we've all

420
00:36:20,199 --> 00:36:25,880
handled cards, We've all wished they
looked better. And so anyway, greant

421
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:30,760
cardboard, good very early morning,
gents. A shout out to our people

422
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:35,519
all over the world that are listening
to us at times that are unhealthy for

423
00:36:35,559 --> 00:36:38,880
your sleep patterns. We appreciate it, We really do. What time is

424
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,480
it in Korea? I wonder?
Yeah, we asked that every week.

425
00:36:42,519 --> 00:36:50,039
We should probably know it's probably the
same time every Saturday, but we ask

426
00:36:50,159 --> 00:36:52,840
every We ask every week. Anyway, Jeff, if you have anything,

427
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:59,800
a screen shot or something, I'd
love to see that that apparently a YouTuber

428
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:04,519
call the FBI owned Kurt. I'm
not I'm gonna put that up there as

429
00:37:04,599 --> 00:37:09,000
Jeff's card journey comment for right now, I have not seen that. That

430
00:37:09,039 --> 00:37:13,079
doesn't mean it's not true, but
I have not seen that. And I

431
00:37:13,119 --> 00:37:17,320
will admit to uh actually having a
family life yesterday a little bit as well.

432
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,599
Yeah, but I think PSA opened
up a can of worms with this.

433
00:37:23,679 --> 00:37:27,039
I'll be honest with you, you
know, And Okay, I'm sorry.

434
00:37:27,039 --> 00:37:29,639
There's the question I keep getting to
ask, and it's a serious question,

435
00:37:29,679 --> 00:37:32,440
which is why I forget Do you
think the card companies got caught off

436
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:37,679
guard and blinded that this whole thing
has become a public conversation like they were

437
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:43,159
almost happier when it was not not
a public conversation and they didn't have the

438
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,320
responsibility, They didn't have to deal
with the canine unit, you know.

439
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:51,880
It just it wasn't something they had
to worry about. It's hard out that

440
00:37:52,599 --> 00:37:54,559
it's a big topic. Yeah,
it's hard for me to say that they

441
00:37:54,559 --> 00:38:00,360
got caught off guard because Kurt's card
care product and even the Jim Minty there's

442
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:06,960
another one out there, right,
yeah, mister, Yeah, it's this

443
00:38:07,039 --> 00:38:10,360
has been out in the forefront mainstream
YouTube for quite some time now, at

444
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:15,960
least a good year, where a
lot of these videos are being created and

445
00:38:15,039 --> 00:38:20,159
a lot of this buzz is being
generated, so it's been out there.

446
00:38:20,159 --> 00:38:23,679
I think they've been trying to,
you know, control it, trying to

447
00:38:24,639 --> 00:38:29,320
but it's it just this this thing
keeps getting bigger and bigger, and I

448
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,760
think it's something that really needs to
be addressed. PSA could have made a

449
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:37,960
strong stance here, but if if
they did indeed deactivate those searchs, but

450
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,159
I don't know if that was the
right move. I mean, it's it's

451
00:38:42,159 --> 00:38:45,719
a good flex to try to keep
this thing, you know, controlled,

452
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:51,199
But I don't know. I think
long term we're opening up because now we're

453
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:59,119
demanding is that you you a disclaimer
right that you notify. So now we've

454
00:38:59,119 --> 00:39:02,239
got to make separate labels and that
sort of thing. And it's another layer

455
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:07,440
within the process that's going to generate
more technology, more time or people.

456
00:39:07,559 --> 00:39:09,199
That's what it speaks to. It
speaks to the technology and the time.

457
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:15,320
Yeah, the companies are for profit
businesses. These are not nonprofits for the

458
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:21,480
hobby. And when you're in a
for profit business, there's a checks and

459
00:39:21,639 --> 00:39:27,519
balances, you know internally, and
so it comes down to how much do

460
00:39:27,599 --> 00:39:30,800
people care, how much do they
have to respond? And is a public

461
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,400
statement, and I love that you're
calling it a flex. It really is

462
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:42,039
a flex on their part. You
know, does that solve the public outcry

463
00:39:42,559 --> 00:39:45,239
but it doesn't solve the core problem
or do they actually have to deep down

464
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:50,360
to the core problem, which and
then they have technology and cost and everything

465
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:55,360
else. I believe it was Neil
Cards and Comics who interviewed Pete from SGC

466
00:39:55,679 --> 00:40:00,039
like a year and a half ago
on this exact topic, and Peach responses,

467
00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:05,280
Hey, listen, if we can't
detect it, there's nothing that we

468
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,679
can really, there's no if there's
nothing there now if we do see residue.

469
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,519
If we do see then we have
to address it. But the way

470
00:40:13,519 --> 00:40:19,440
it stands, we can't tell what's
been done. And and that's that's the

471
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:25,559
problem. This the Steven says he's
a funny doctor. One day you will

472
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,679
get to buy a car from fanatics, THEND it to curve, then the

473
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:36,960
p s A. Then today,
with one play will be getting a cut

474
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:43,960
of It's funny. But it's so
it kind of makes sense, well really

475
00:40:44,039 --> 00:40:46,079
close to true on that, I
think a lot, a lot closer than

476
00:40:46,079 --> 00:40:52,000
we want to admit. You know, this is an interesting question, and

477
00:40:52,039 --> 00:40:58,679
I don't you know this is a
fair you know comment. Maybe scam is

478
00:40:58,679 --> 00:41:01,360
not the right word, but people
use it. It's just more evidence that

479
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,800
grading is a scam, you know. And Victory you made the point that

480
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,440
this has been going on for years, so I don't want to call it

481
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:13,519
a scam. But is grading far
more imperfect than we give it credit for,

482
00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:17,800
Chris? Is it far? It's
an objective opinion of someone, it's

483
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:27,320
not subjective. You're sending your card
in and it gets looked at by what

484
00:41:27,519 --> 00:41:30,760
to three different people, they come
up with a grade. They're probably different

485
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:37,440
grades. It's averaged out in the
end, and they're probably not gonna you

486
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:43,320
know, we're human beings, We're
not perfect. We're probably gonna, you

487
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,360
know, three different people are gonna
come up with three different grades for something.

488
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:53,159
So paying for a person's opinion when
you send your card to get graded,

489
00:41:54,079 --> 00:41:58,079
well, this is why a lot
of people say, collect the card,

490
00:41:58,119 --> 00:42:02,320
not the grade, and I like
I like cardboard, not plastic cards,

491
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:09,679
not numbers. Historically grading came from
scams. It's because there was a

492
00:42:09,679 --> 00:42:15,000
lot of scammers out there. When
printing technology started to get advanced with computers

493
00:42:15,559 --> 00:42:21,920
in the nineties and the two thousands. That stuff was just being you know

494
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,920
that we had to we had to
come up with some kind of process and

495
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:30,599
grading really gave us that sense of
security that this is a real card.

496
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:36,280
For people that didn't live through the
scamming of the eighties, I think it's

497
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:42,079
hard to understand what the world was
like that GET started as a magazine company.

498
00:42:42,599 --> 00:42:47,000
Grating came in, you know,
way down the line, PSA,

499
00:42:47,559 --> 00:42:52,679
SGC. Look at what years they
actually started. I got news for it.

500
00:42:52,679 --> 00:42:57,599
It was during the junk wax era. Yeah, these didn't start with

501
00:42:58,039 --> 00:43:02,119
vintage cards, right. Peace of
mind is what it gave consumers, and

502
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:07,000
it took off because there was especially
as the Internet started to come into the

503
00:43:07,039 --> 00:43:13,159
hobby. Yeah, I mean,
if you're it gave it gave collectors some

504
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:17,039
bit of confidence that when they bid
on a card on eBay, they're going

505
00:43:17,119 --> 00:43:22,559
to get what they get, you
know that. And that's always been the

506
00:43:22,599 --> 00:43:28,159
one thing. I don't want to
say Achilles heel of buying cards over the

507
00:43:28,159 --> 00:43:32,559
internet, but you're buying you're buying
these cards sight unseen, and if you're

508
00:43:32,599 --> 00:43:39,079
spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on
a card that the seller says is in

509
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:47,719
condition X. But you get the
card and you think it's condition X minus

510
00:43:49,039 --> 00:43:53,920
two. That's a problem. And
that's one good thing that grating has brought

511
00:43:54,000 --> 00:44:01,320
to the hobby. It's brought a
it's brought some level of standardization amongs among

512
00:44:01,599 --> 00:44:06,599
Yeah, and you get and and
the great thing is you can take it

513
00:44:06,679 --> 00:44:09,559
or leave it. Yeah, nobody
makes you buy it unless you're buying a

514
00:44:09,599 --> 00:44:15,320
one o one. You have options, Jimmy, great point here. The

515
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:21,599
upper deck hologram existed solely for scamming
actors in the eighties. I remember how

516
00:44:21,639 --> 00:44:24,440
big of a deal that was when
when they put a holow you know,

517
00:44:24,519 --> 00:44:28,920
the hologram on here, like whoa
nobody will ever a fake your card again

518
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,119
And they were the only ones who
had that technology for a lot of years

519
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,159
or cared enough to put it on. You want to look at it.

520
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,760
But but that was a big deal. And and once again, uh,

521
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:46,480
you know and here and I want
to put our Rex cards Rex uh comments

522
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:51,800
here. Think about how many people
crack and re submit cards more and more.

523
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,719
Grating seems like a potential house of
cards pun intended, I'm sure Rex.

524
00:44:55,039 --> 00:45:00,039
To me, I've always thought that
was an interesting side of this is

525
00:45:00,079 --> 00:45:05,840
we look at pop reports and we
look at submissions. You know, are

526
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:10,599
they getting more inaccurate over time because
of this? If it's an iconic card,

527
00:45:10,679 --> 00:45:16,599
I would say absolutely you can.
The only one you can really is

528
00:45:17,119 --> 00:45:24,239
the tens right, those right exactly? Well, but was it the first

529
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:30,719
or second company? You know?
And somebody who said p s A stands

530
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:37,119
for a police submit again, which
which I think is hysterical and I had

531
00:45:37,159 --> 00:45:40,400
to work that in somehow today.
But you know, I really think you

532
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:46,519
know, that's an issue. Logan
says, this is just another tool that

533
00:45:46,559 --> 00:45:53,119
scammers can use to exploit collectors.
Yeah. I mean, if you're if

534
00:45:53,119 --> 00:45:58,360
you're trying to put through cards,
you know, through other companies and you

535
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:04,519
know they're fake, that's certainly not
something I would consider kosher. Yeah.

536
00:46:04,639 --> 00:46:07,119
Net cracking and resubbing I think has
been just in like in the last four

537
00:46:07,199 --> 00:46:13,159
years since since the COVID boom.
I think it's when it's really I think

538
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:19,840
before that, the percentage of actual
crackouts and resubs we're very very small compared

539
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:23,000
to the overall cards that were getting
graded, probably less than one percent.

540
00:46:23,559 --> 00:46:28,760
But you know, there seems to
be a trend ever since the COVID boom.

541
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:32,000
That makes it a little bit more
normal, right to crack out and

542
00:46:32,079 --> 00:46:36,679
resub try again type of thing.
And that comes a little bit, like

543
00:46:37,199 --> 00:46:43,039
the commenter said, because of the
greediness of certain individuals flippers or what have

544
00:46:43,159 --> 00:46:47,360
you. Yeah, it's a shame, but the readings really are skewed on

545
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:52,320
these pop reports, especially if a
card is an iconic card. And Rex

546
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,920
says, don't get me wrong,
we submit to PSA and SGC for various

547
00:46:55,960 --> 00:47:00,480
reasons, and I want to touch
on that it's a bit hypocritical of us,

548
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:04,440
but we're not really big fans of
grading. I you know, I

549
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,719
think that's an excellent point. Do
you guys look at different grading companies and

550
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:13,280
without getting into specifics, maybe for
different types of cards, like if you

551
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,639
were to submit you look at every
grading company is having its own type of

552
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:22,960
niche or yea, yeah, I
don't get my cards graded, so I

553
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,440
don't have to worry about it.
Well, there you go, because you

554
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:35,760
collect a hardboard, not plastic exactly, cards not numbers the circle of life.

555
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:42,199
How about you, Danny? I
clicked both okay, and I'm not

556
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:51,679
afraid to say that my PC collections
are typically graded. My sets are typically

557
00:47:51,679 --> 00:47:55,159
wrong. So like I'm like,
I'm collecting right now to dual sport athletes,

558
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:59,840
people who played professionally in more than
one sport. Well, those are

559
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:02,400
all going to be graded, not
because of the value, just because of

560
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:07,760
the display ability to put them all
together. Because I hope I can get

561
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:13,039
a registry made for that. Maybe
if there's anybody in the comments who's a

562
00:48:13,039 --> 00:48:15,840
PSA Hall of Famer could help me. I think that would be a great

563
00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:20,960
category to have in the PSA Hall
of Famers we have in our chat.

564
00:48:21,559 --> 00:48:24,760
I don't know, but I think
dual sport Athletes is a fantastic one,

565
00:48:25,039 --> 00:48:30,280
and so that's why I'm collecting it
right now. But Victor, I'm working

566
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:35,519
on the fifty seven set. Nice
of that is in a raw binder,

567
00:48:35,639 --> 00:48:39,360
I mean in binder pages. Okay, So I I span the whole spectrum

568
00:48:39,639 --> 00:48:44,400
down to just cards sitting on my
desk. Do you send to one grading

569
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:49,679
company for one thing and another grating
company for something else? Or all right,

570
00:48:49,719 --> 00:49:00,480
you're going to make me fess up
here, okay, Okay, okay,

571
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:07,679
I I don't mind buying SGC.
I like buying SGC if I like

572
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:14,559
the card to me as she sees
about the card one because in my mind,

573
00:49:14,599 --> 00:49:16,039
I would send it to PSA even
if it cost me the great one

574
00:49:16,119 --> 00:49:22,199
day. So you're one hundred percent
Collectors Universe. I was very happy to

575
00:49:22,199 --> 00:49:24,280
see it come together. I'm not
gonna lie. You're right, you know

576
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:30,079
what, I'm not gonna lie.
It may it felt like a family gathering,

577
00:49:30,199 --> 00:49:32,519
you know, like like you know, you know, somebody finally got

578
00:49:32,519 --> 00:49:38,800
married and now we can have the
family gathering and everybody's umbrella the chess probably

579
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:46,039
Okay, thank you, Mark,
This is fantastic. There's a great display

580
00:49:46,079 --> 00:49:50,960
at the Hall of Fame. Now
two sport baseball apples. Nice. That

581
00:49:51,199 --> 00:49:54,880
is something that will obviously be on
my to do list to look up after

582
00:49:54,920 --> 00:50:00,159
this. Uh Dylan, what's going
on Hawaii? Uh? As I I

583
00:50:00,159 --> 00:50:02,760
look at my wall of graded cards. I can't stand seeing the giant number

584
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:09,079
that SGC puts on the slab.
Well, you know, that's definitely a

585
00:50:10,119 --> 00:50:15,119
fair point whether or not you like
the look of the slab. Any idea

586
00:50:15,159 --> 00:50:20,559
of PSA and SGC will grade together
and just use a different level label since

587
00:50:20,599 --> 00:50:25,360
they're one company and all sharing resources. From my understanding, and I did

588
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:30,599
speak directly to Nat Turner. The
SGC is being operated as a separate company

589
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:37,760
for the time being. The only
exception is counterfeiting technology is going to be

590
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:42,400
shared. Whatever the highest level they
have that, they're going to make that

591
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:47,599
consistent between the two companies. But
other than that, Peter is still running

592
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:54,360
SGC and PSA and Collectors is not
telling them what to do. Is what

593
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:59,000
I was told, So take that
for whatever it's worth. I like it.

594
00:50:59,039 --> 00:51:06,920
They need to keep it that way. Yes, Brent, you missed.

595
00:51:07,119 --> 00:51:09,599
I don't know if you missed the
beginning. Wish we were all in

596
00:51:09,639 --> 00:51:17,800
Strongsville. Yes, definitely, without
a doubt. Several carbs all request authentic

597
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:24,480
with SGC versus getting a grade.
That's an interesting, uh interesting approach.

598
00:51:24,519 --> 00:51:28,760
I've heard other people say that,
would you do you guys buy authentic,

599
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:32,199
altered or well, Chris, I
know you wouldn't, Victor. Would would

600
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:37,159
you buy altered or authentic? Yeah? I mean, if it's a big

601
00:51:37,199 --> 00:51:38,719
card, I wouldn't mind. I
wouldn't mind putting something like that in my

602
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:45,920
PC. Yeah. I think.
I think if the card's legit, no

603
00:51:46,119 --> 00:51:50,559
problem. Let's try to help when
we can. I know very little,

604
00:51:50,599 --> 00:51:55,039
but I'll share it. Jeff's card
Journey. I bought a small lot of

605
00:51:55,039 --> 00:51:59,719
fifty eight tops football Row yesterday.
Very cool, by the way. I

606
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,559
can't wait to get them and put
them in my Zion Max. That's a

607
00:52:02,599 --> 00:52:07,840
new product on the market. Zion
has come out with their kind of their

608
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:13,199
own holder that I see a lot
of people talking about. He's the one

609
00:52:13,199 --> 00:52:19,480
I want. What are your guys
plans for the National I'll be there super

610
00:52:19,599 --> 00:52:24,280
vip all five days. You're a
super vip every day, super Elite man,

611
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:38,480
super elite, get me in thirty
minutes, early product, superl homos,

612
00:52:38,519 --> 00:52:43,599
super elate, super elate, victory. How far have we drive for

613
00:52:43,679 --> 00:52:49,079
you? It's going to Oh man, it's not far. Four hours,

614
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,800
maybe three, three and a half
hours. I believe it's gonna take I

615
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:53,239
don't know. I got to look
it up. I don't know. But

616
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:59,840
but are you driving? I assume
i'll be driving. Yeah, yeah,

617
00:53:00,159 --> 00:53:01,800
Brent said, I soak all my
cards in gasoline and then use a match.

618
00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:07,320
You can't detect any old standing after
that. That is a way to

619
00:53:07,639 --> 00:53:14,880
you can't detect anything after that.
Just just a little bit of charring.

620
00:53:15,119 --> 00:53:21,079
This this is a big issue that's
come up. Sure. Two Universal Pop

621
00:53:21,119 --> 00:53:25,119
reports that makes zero sense. PSA
needs to do away with SGC. Well,

622
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,440
this is a story that came up
a couple of weeks ago, and

623
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,199
you know, the Universal Pop Report
is something that people have a strong feeling

624
00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:38,239
about. I'm kind of against it
until, you know, until there's a

625
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:43,679
set of rules to kind of even
out what the grades are. I think

626
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:51,559
it would be too incompatible, uncompatible, incompatible to have a PSA registry blended.

627
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,000
However, I think the information should
be put side by side. I

628
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:59,119
think if you scan a card from
either company, you should be able to

629
00:53:59,159 --> 00:54:02,000
see the other company pop report next
to it, and you know they have

630
00:54:02,119 --> 00:54:07,760
that technology I would believe to do
now that there's a PSA guy, you

631
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,000
know, do you want to see
the pop reports blended or do you want

632
00:54:10,039 --> 00:54:13,960
to see them kept separate? I
do not. I'd like to keep them

633
00:54:14,559 --> 00:54:17,760
separate. I think now that they've
merged right or bought out or whatever the

634
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:23,760
terminology is, they're Facebook dating.
There's no reason why PSA can't extend those

635
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:34,400
registries into an SGC format and just
give them their own registry. I don't

636
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:40,000
care for universal Chris, I know
you don't grade, but for the sanity

637
00:54:40,039 --> 00:54:45,480
of the hobby. Do we need
a universal registry or is it not a

638
00:54:45,519 --> 00:54:51,199
practical application? I don't know how
that would work though, because each of

639
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:58,559
the different grading companies has a different
rubric for what is men, gem men

640
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:05,599
or pristine' exactly. Yeah, a
PSA ten is not necessarily the same thing

641
00:55:06,639 --> 00:55:12,360
as a BGS nine and a half, even though they both they're both labeled

642
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:17,119
as gem minh. They have different
standards. So I will say, if

643
00:55:17,199 --> 00:55:22,239
PSA and STC merge and make a
universal just those two companies, I don't

644
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:28,280
have no issue with it with that
concept either, but it's not I don't

645
00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:30,559
think I'd make a big deal about
it if they do merge. It's my

646
00:55:30,599 --> 00:55:37,480
point. It doesn't. But just
those two companies like PSA SGC, you

647
00:55:37,559 --> 00:55:42,280
got to be under the same umbrella. Yeah, Rex says, I'm driving

648
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:46,360
in from Michigan. Also driving to
the TOPS conference in Atlanta at the end

649
00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:51,800
of next week. Nice good on
you for that drive. I went to

650
00:55:52,159 --> 00:55:57,480
college down in Atlanta and the drive
from Baltimore wasn't enough for me. Hey,

651
00:55:57,519 --> 00:56:00,639
Danny, before we come up against
our can it said? Okay,

652
00:56:00,639 --> 00:56:04,119
if I change gears on you for
a second, please, I do want

653
00:56:04,159 --> 00:56:07,840
to promote the ballot that is going
on at the Sports Card Hall of Fame

654
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:14,360
Network. It's the annual Baseball Card
Hall of Fame voting ballot that we have,

655
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:21,159
and I'd like if we can support
Ray Ponio and that YouTube channel.

656
00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:24,519
He just released the video last week
with all the instructions and all of that.

657
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:29,119
Again, it's Sports Card Hall of
Fame Network. It's a YouTube channel.

658
00:56:29,599 --> 00:56:32,119
Look for Ray's most recent video and
he'll give you the link to the

659
00:56:32,159 --> 00:56:38,039
ballot and all of the details about
the participation of it. I also wanted

660
00:56:38,119 --> 00:56:43,599
to, you know, let everybody
know that I am no longer with Sports

661
00:56:43,599 --> 00:56:46,280
Card Hall of Fame Network. At
the beginning of the year, I was

662
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:52,440
planning out my year and everything that
I have going on with the hobby and

663
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:57,559
the amount of time that I have. I had to really make some adjustments

664
00:56:57,639 --> 00:57:04,039
and shift them some things up,
and I respectfully about out with the Sports

665
00:57:04,079 --> 00:57:07,400
Card Hall of Fame Network team,
and I felt like, you know,

666
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,039
there's there's a lot of good talent
out there that can assist these guys.

667
00:57:10,639 --> 00:57:15,880
I can no longer invest in it. A lot of it is pre war,

668
00:57:16,079 --> 00:57:19,280
or some of it is pre war, I should say, and it's

669
00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:22,760
an area that I'm really not strong
in. I'm more you know, the

670
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:28,639
Golden Age and forward. But really
they have they do great work. It's

671
00:57:28,679 --> 00:57:31,199
a great cause that they're doing,
and it's generating a lot of buzz over

672
00:57:31,239 --> 00:57:36,079
the last few years. I want
to continue to support them. And my

673
00:57:36,079 --> 00:57:38,360
my favorite part is that now this
year I get to vote, where in

674
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:43,880
the past years I couldn't vote,
So a lot of shout out to to

675
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:47,760
Ray Fonio and that and that Baseball
Card Hall of Fame. Uh, check

676
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:52,280
it out and give them some love. And I put in the chat room

677
00:57:52,719 --> 00:57:57,639
the name of the YouTube channel that
they can check out for the information.

678
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,199
So if you're in the chat room
or you're watching this later and you want

679
00:58:01,199 --> 00:58:06,679
to put on the chat we have
it in there for the Sports Card Hall

680
00:58:06,719 --> 00:58:15,280
of Fame Network. Thank you for
bringing that up, Dylan says, Yes,

681
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:20,039
get out and vote for Robin,
you out rookie card. That's what

682
00:58:20,039 --> 00:58:27,039
they call. Yeah, nineteen seventy
five forever, there's a law of a

683
00:58:27,079 --> 00:58:32,320
good setting. I'm sorry I got
here. Nineteen seventy five is an ugly

684
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,360
set of cards. You don't like
it. You either love it or hate

685
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:39,440
it. Put it with seventy two, seventy two and seventy five can date,

686
00:58:39,519 --> 00:58:45,159
and they can walk, and they
can go move somewhere happily. And

687
00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:49,440
I think we're going to start wrapping
it up on this note as a PSA,

688
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:54,920
do not microwave trading cards. Thank
you, Logan. That's that's that's

689
00:58:54,920 --> 00:59:00,639
a hot take. Danny, You're
off my Christmas list. There you go,

690
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:01,960
as long as long as you put
me on the honokah one, I'm

691
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:15,280
fine, let's go. Yeah,
I kind of am Nina all right.

692
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:19,000
I ask it every weekend because I
always like to know right before we get

693
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:22,960
out, leave on a positive vibe
for everybody. Guys, put it in

694
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:24,639
the chats. You know what I'm
gonna ask? What are we doing hobby

695
00:59:24,639 --> 00:59:30,159
wise? Exciting? Not exciting?
Sorting cards, doing content, going to

696
00:59:30,199 --> 00:59:34,480
a show? What are we up
to this weekend? Chris? Actually I

697
00:59:34,519 --> 00:59:37,039
went to bell Airy yesterday, so
oh text me, dude, I would

698
00:59:37,679 --> 00:59:47,400
not yesterday in general? Yeah,
Victor, what are you up to recording,

699
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:54,320
editing and uploading glamorous? Yes?
I just did an interview and part

700
00:59:54,360 --> 01:00:00,400
of the discussion was for every ten
minutes of content, it was it's about

701
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:07,480
an hour of work. So I
I wish you god speed my friends as

702
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:12,199
you sit there and try to get
everything to sync up. Yes, that

703
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:16,480
that is U. That's the true
work and content creation. Yep. Absolutely.

704
01:00:17,239 --> 01:00:25,159
Uh you guys, if you don't
create cards, you don't get scammed.

705
01:00:25,639 --> 01:00:30,400
Well that's not one hundred percent through
either, which is why there's cards

706
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:36,599
on the market. Logan says,
going to Talladega. If it doesn't rain,

707
01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,360
I hope there's a race. If
there's not, then I just hope

708
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:45,440
you enjoyed Talladega. I just hurt. I just found out that Logan has

709
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,880
a YouTube channel. I did not
know that until YouTube fed it to me

710
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:52,199
the other day, and I gladly
subscribe to his channel. But he's got

711
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:59,239
a ton of videos on YouTube.
Credit super VP. Let's go Logan,

712
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:04,480

go. Rex says, thanks, guys,

01:01:21,639 --> 01:01:23,559
Well, the hobby has topics,
