Busted NT Breaks & Way Too Early NFL Observations | Card Talk Aug 16, 2023

Show notes

The NFL Preseason is fully underway, with the Jets destroying Bryce Young and the Panthers 27-0 on Saturday. No chance Lou and Tyler are ready to overreact to such a scenario. Absolutely no chance.

However, all the good feels for Lou and Jay did not carry over in the way of luck in their first NT case break, as they each picked up a couple of random teams and hit exactly 0 cards. Tough lesson.

With that said, the quarterback market remains hot.. Brock Purdy's NT shield reportedly sold privately for 100k+, but even guys like Desmond Ridder, Malik Cunningham, Sam Howell and Malik Willis are seeing some large sales on eBay lately. Are any of those guys a buy? Also, is it EVER worth it to buy a running backs cards early in their career?

Speaking of running backs, the Pats picked up Zeke Elliot and the Jets signed some guy named Dalvin Cook (no big deal). Is Ryan ready to concede the AFC East to HIS GUY Garrett Wilson and the Jets? That answer might surprise you... but it might not be as shocking as the flowers he throws his most hated team on the planet - the Michigan Wolverines - in this episode!

Tune in for all of that PLUS Play of the Week is BACK!

Show notes

What.

Week.

There are fights everywhere. Panini vs Fanatics. Tim Anderson vs. Jose Ramirez. Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz. Derek Jeter vs Lou Geneux. We're here to break it all down!

Besides that, the NFL kicked off their preseason with the Hall of Fame game as the future 2023 Super Bowl Champion New York Jets and the Browns met up in Canton to a wildly large television audience. Football runs the world... and it appears that it also currently runs the hobby.

People lined up for 16+ hours to get their hands on the Lorcana release at GenCon, 2022 National Treasures Football is set to release this week, the Wemby Superfractor was pulled and we have some great Q&A, as always.

Stay tuned for an upcoming announcement of when the whole squad will be back in Columbus, Ohio for trade night!

Just 7 Days Away From the National Q&A | Card Talk Jul 19, 2023

Show notes

The boys are back with just a week to go before we're in Chicago for the National!

On this episode, we go heavy with National related Q&A from our followers... but first, Carlos Alcaraz took down Novak Djokovic in an epic Wimbledon finals match and Tyler couldn't be more upset that he never transacted on a single NetPro Alcaraz card despite shouting out to anybody who would listed what a great buy those would be.

Also... Fanatics announced their latest venture "Fanatics Events" this week... but is another events company putting on card & memorabilia shows good for the hobby? Kith announced a sneaker collab with Marvel and PSA that highlights collectibles, obviously Tyler and Lou want a pair! The Barbie Movie is out, but Lou's wondering why no major juice in the Barbie collectibles market?

Jokic & the Nuggets are CHAMPS! | Card Talk Jun 14, 2023

Show notes

The NBA crowned a new champion on Monday night as the Nuggets predictably dropped the Heat, making light work of them in 5 games. Even still, is Nikola Jokic one of the most under-appreciated players in the hobby?

Also, we have entered a bit of a slow period in sports, or as Lou would call it "baseball time"... but before we all know it, the National will arrive and then NFL training camp will be back! There were some huge pulls by @dcsports8866 @mojobreak & Bleacher Hits this week, Messi is headed to MLS to play for Miami AND Upper Deck is taking Disney Lorcana (Ravensburger) to court ahead of their big upcoming release.

Aliens, LIV/PGA Merger & the Heat Are Alive! | Card Talk Jun 07, 2023

Show notes

This will likely go down as the weirdest and most random 20 minutes to start a show that we've ever had in our 147 studio recordings, with all topics in play. We're talking:

- Aliens

- LIV Golf (with breaking news mid-recording)

- Pickleball paddles

- Apple Vision Pro

You know... all the topics that the most hardcore card collectors are discussing! But after the dust settled, it was actually quite a week in the hobby, so the boys found some time to get in to that as well.

The Heat are surprisingly making a series of things with the Nuggets. Las Vegas is an elite home for the Stanley Cup Finals, as the first two games out there have been an electric factory. The $250k Druw Jones Superfractor Bounty was accepted by a grandfather in (of course) Ohio. Wemby autos out of Bowman Chrome U are redemptions... so how do they determine who gets the "first card I ever signed" inscription?

Tune in for all of that PLUS another great round of questions from our Instagram followers!

Nuggets vs the Heat & Vegas vs the Panthers - South Florida = the Mecca of Sports | Card Talk May 31, 2023

Show notes

What a week in sports!

The Heat blew a 3-0 lead... but somehow managed to win game 7 in Boston! The NHL Finals will be played in Las Vegas for the first time ever as the Golden Knights get set to battle the Florida Panthers for the Stanley Cup. Soccer has been BONKERS with some wild relegations and promotions coming.

It was also a wild week in sports cards.

A Barry Bonds card broke the record for most expensive Bonds card ever sold. Panini found themselves in a bit of a scandal as a redemption card was sold on eBay that (allegedly) the rightful owner was still waiting on them to fulfill. How will that end?!

Penn State lacrosse was more robbed than not robbed. Taylor Swift came to New Jersey where her #1 day 1 fan Aaron Rodgers took in all the scenes. Summer is officially BACK. The National is coming. All is well!
