    I feel like it wasn't too many episodes ago to where I was like "I don't see a need for me to own Foams given my current style".  Yet here we are, I'm back with Coppers and a pair of Royals on the way and scheming on some Black Volts while I'm at it.  I guess... never say never?  Also I talk a bit about using Goat and StockX to see demand on a sneaker.

    I go into how overanalyzing things in a hobby can be annoying.  Especially in sneakers.  ESPECIALLY when it's on a pic I took of a shoe I'm wearing!  I also get into some 2025 releases and what Transformers comics and shows I've been watching.
