Did Top Shot Get Boring?
The NBA Finals start tomorrow, yet Top Shot feels pretty underwhelming. Why? And is that a good or bad sign of things to come? LG continues his conversation from last week around the current market slump and the general lack of hype in the Top Shot space. We also take a look at some major hints of NBA integrations to come in the very near future.

A Star Is Born, Featuring PETER OVERZET
In early January, as Top Shot blew up, LG was asked to appear on the Peter Overzet show. Weeks later, Club Top Shot was born and Peter Overzet became a staple of the NBA Top Shot community. What happened during those historic few weeks, and who was Overzet before his Top Shot influencer fame? Hosted by LgDoucet.

The Playoff Market Slump
With 185,000 packs sold over the weekend, the market took another nosedive as people sold off much more than just Playoff moments. What exactly is happening here, and why are Collectors so keen to dump their moments all of a sudden? LG dives into the reasons behind the slide, as well as theories for the upcoming playoff challenges. Hosted by LgDoucet.

The Donovan Mitchell Fumble
Yesterday's challenge rewards for the Donovan Mitchell moment were released with some errors; older collector accounts were given many of the low serials, which prompted a response and then compensation from NBA Top Shot. But is that enough to regain trust from the Top Shot faithful? On today's show, we've got LG and Producer Quad on to give both sides of a very contentious issue. And yes, we're breaking routine here - this Wednesday's episode is NOT about other NFTs, as has been the norm. Hosted by LgDoucet.
