In this episode of the podcast, Chris Pugh and Guy Vogrin sit down for a wide-ranging conversation about the biggest headlines and debates happening right now — from global politics to sports, media, and even fast food.The discussion begins with a look at growing tensions involving Iran and how modern warfare is perceived differently than conflicts of the past. Chris and Guy talk about how media coverage, social media, and nonstop information have changed the way people react to global events. They also discuss the conspiracy theories circulating online, including comparisons to the movie Wag the Dog and speculation about whether political distractions influence major international decisions.The conversation shifts to the changing landscape of journalism. With reports of potential media mergers and shrinking newsrooms, the hosts talk about why strong journalism is still essential — especially in an era filled with misinformation, viral rumors, and fast-moving breaking news.Sports fans will also enjoy the March Madness conversation. The hosts discuss Ohio State basketball, the possibility of multiple Ohio teams making the NCAA Tournament, and the fascinating story of Miami (Ohio) potentially earning a spot despite playing a smaller schedule. They also dive into the drama surrounding Aaron Rodgers' appearance on the Pat McAfee Show and why fans sometimes expect breaking news from every interview.Finally, the episode wraps up with a lighter topic: McDonald's new Big Arch burger. The hosts discuss the hype around the sandwich, fast-food marketing strategies, and the reality of nutrition numbers like sodium and calories in modern fast food.This episode blends news analysis, sports talk, media commentary, and everyday conversation in a way that feels like two friends catching up about the biggest stories of the week.If you enjoy discussions about current events, sports debates, media trends, and pop culture topics, make sure to like, subscribe and share the podcast.Check out my work athttps://www.cleveland.com/staff/cpugh/Support the podcast athttps://cash.app/$chrispugh3Offer 1:2026 Topps Baseball Series 1 Factory Sealed Mega Boxhttps://www.fanatics.com/mlb/mlb-merchandise/trading-cards/2026-topps-baseball-series-1-factory-sealed-mega-box/o-2309+t-81002141+d-017450348+f-283047133+z-9-4014397671?irclickid=3jBWaF05pxyZWGi0isRWd0EjUkux5cQ3018yUo0&irgwc=1&afsrc=1&_s=afl_impact&utm_source=Impact&utm_medium=affiliates&SSAID=5163860Offer 2:Want an easy $5?

No more flawless. No More NT. Topps has the NBA and now the NFL, So what will they release to be the NT and Flawless? My bet is that Dynasty and Definitive take the place of Flawless and NT and the result? People take a long look at those product in the prior years of baseball. I could be wrong- but that doesn't happen often...
Chris and Guy are back with a wide-ranging conversation that moves from million-dollar collectibles to Ohio's biggest political races — and everything in between.We start with personal updates and a look at the booming card industry. With more people collecting sports and trading cards again, the big question is: what are they really worth? That leads into the headline-grabbing news that Logan Paul paid $16.5 million for a rare Pokémon card. Is that a smart investment, a publicity move, or just another example of how unpredictable the collectibles market can be? We compare it to classic baseball cards, talk about condition and grading, and reflect on how much the hobby has changed from the days of nickel packs and gum.From there, the discussion shifts to Ohio politics. We break down the governor's race between Democrat Amy Acton and Republican Vivek Ramaswamy, and what name recognition, party loyalty and timing could mean in a Republican-leaning state. We also look ahead to the U.S. Senate race featuring Sherrod Brown and J.D. Vance, and how turnout and national trends could shape the outcome. It's a reminder that even when campaigns seem quiet, big decisions are on the horizon.The conversation also touches on journalism and the evolving role of public information officers. With shrinking newsrooms and growing demand for online content, how can local governments and media outlets work together to keep communities informed? We talk about how the news industry is changing — and why hyperlocal coverage still matters.Finally, we reflect on faith, online church services and the importance of human contact. As Lent approaches, we consider how community — whether through church, family, sports or simple conversation — plays a vital role in mental health and connection. Even in a digital world, showing up for one another still matters.It's thoughtful, sometimes lighthearted, and always rooted in what's happening around us.Check out my work at https://www.cleveland.com/staff/cpugh/Support the podcast at https://linktr.ee/ChrisPughEdits#LoganPaul, #PokemonCards, #SportsCards, #CardCollecting, #BaseballCards, #OhioPolitics, #AmyActon, #VivekRamaswamy, #SherrodBrown, #JDVance, #GovernorRace, #SenateRace, #Journalism, #LocalNews, #ChurchOnline, #LentSeason, #CommunityMatters, #MentalHealthAwareness, #PodcastConversation, #ClevelandMedia

We're hundreds of episodes into Sleeping with Celebrities but we're just now getting a PBS voice on? I know. We're so sorry. But this will make up for it. The brilliant, engaging, and funny Simeon Lipman from Antiques Roadshow knows more about baseball cards and, actually, punk rock memorabilia than most people will ever know about anything. And his knowledge includes a whole lot of arcane data. Let him regale with tales of Jimmy Claxton and of Simeon's long quest to acquire that one Billy Ripken card. You know the one I'm talking about. Yes, baseball can be exciting, and, yes, punk rock even more so, but we promise you that the dulcet tones of Simeon Lipman (current PBS voice) and John Moe (former public radio voice) will zonk you out faster than a fastball to the head and with much less pain.Watch Antiques Roadshow online or on PBS.

Lately, it's been hitting hard: the soreness lasts longer, the tiredness feels deeper, and suddenly the entertainment choices say more about your age than you want to admit. In this conversation, we talk about that quiet realization that sneaks up on you — the moment you realize you've drifted into “old man” territory without a formal announcement.It starts with background noise. Instead of new shows or edgy comedies, it's comfort TV from the '90s — The Drew Carey Show, familiar sitcoms, documentaries you don't really have to watch closely. Stuff you can listen to while working. Stuff you already know. Stuff that feels safe. And once you notice it, you really notice it.We also get into hobbies and nostalgia, including a trip to a card show that turned into something way more meaningful than expected. No interest in modern cards. No chase for value. Just a box of old baseball cards from the '50s through the '80s, stories about collecting with dads, memories unlocked for about eight bucks and 45 minutes of conversation. Sometimes it's not about the item — it's about the connection and the feeling it brings back.There's a lot here about aging quietly. Turning 50 doesn't come with a switch, but it does seem to flip something in your brain. Suddenly documentaries sound better than new dramas. Long-form podcasts where people just talk for hours feel more interesting than tightly produced, fast-paced content. You don't need to agree with the person — you just want to hear how they think.We also talk about how spouses experience aging differently. One person leans into documentaries and nostalgia, the other unwinds with Hallmark movies. Predictable stories, familiar beats, no stress. And honestly? That makes sense. Sometimes relaxation isn't about being surprised — it's about knowing exactly where something is going.This episode isn't about complaining. It's about noticing change, laughing at it a little, and realizing that comfort, curiosity, and nostalgia aren't signs of giving up — they're signs of knowing what actually works for you now.Check out my work at https://www.cleveland.com/staff/cpugh/Support the podcast at https://linktr.ee/ChrisPughEdits#GettingOlder, #MiddleAge, #Nostalgia, #AgingGracefully, #OldManEnergy, #PodcastConversation, #LifeReflections, #ComfortTV, #90sTV, #DocumentaryLife, #LongFormPodcasts, #BaseballCards, #Memories, #GrowingOlder, #LifeTalk, #CasualConversation, #PodcastClip, #EntertainmentTalk, #FamilyLife, #Perspective

Getting older sneaks up on you in weird ways — especially when it comes to pop culture and the stuff you actually care about.I'm 51 now, and at some point over the past year it really hit me: I'm not as into the “current” stuff as I used to be. New shows, new trends, new collectibles — they're fine. But they don't hit the same way. Meanwhile, I find myself gravitating toward old sitcoms, old sports clips, and especially old baseball cards.That realization really clicked at a recent card show. My son, who has special needs, loves Pokémon cards, but those environments can be a lot for him. So I went solo, picked up some Pokémon cards for him, and started looking around for myself. I checked out the newer cards and realized… yeah, this isn't doing much for me.Then I found a guy with boxes full of older cards — 1950s through the 1980s. And suddenly the memories came flooding back. I picked up a Johnny Bench card, a Toby Harrah, a Billy Martin (yes, with the Indians), and a Pete Rose card that sent me down a YouTube rabbit hole watching clips of him with the Expos. That alone tells you where my head's at.What I love about older cards is that they weren't mass-produced the way cards are now. The older Topps sets — especially from the 40s, 50s, and 60s — just feel different. They carry history. They feel personal. And sometimes they carry memories of people who aren't here anymore, like my dad, who once had a full set he cut up and glued into a scrapbook. Painful from a value standpoint — but priceless in another way.I didn't spend much money. Eight bucks here, a few bucks there. But the value wasn't financial. It was emotional. It was connection. It was realizing that, yeah, I'm officially a nostalgia guy — and I'm totally okay with that.We can talk current Steelers and Browns all day. But if you really want to get me going? Old baseball. Old cards. Old stories. That stuff still hits hard.Check out my work at https://www.cleveland.com/staff/cpugh/Support the podcast at https://linktr.ee/ChrisPughEdits#BaseballCards, #SportsNostalgia, #OldSchoolBaseball, #CollectingCards, #JohnnyBench, #PeteRose, #VintageCards, #SportsMemories, #GrowingOlder, #PopCultureTalk, #CardCollecting, #BaseballHistory, #ClevelandSports, #RetroSports, #SportsPodcast, #Nostalgia, #MLBhistory, #ClassicBaseball, #Collectors, #SportsStories-----Subscribe to my YouTube page https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHUrqzAFKz0t786NojlhN4Q

You can scan a Ricky Henderson rookie card and an app will tell you it's “worth” $800. Great. Try buying groceries with it. You can't. Until someone actually pays that price, it's just a number.The same applies to markets. Assets aren't worth what a spreadsheet says—they're worth what a buyer is willing to pay. This matters now as private funds, real estate, and credit vehicles go public claiming lofty “net asset values,” only to drop fast once real trading begins.On paper, everything looks rich. In reality, liquidity, buyers, and bids matter. Assets aren't casino chips. Whether it's baseball cards, stocks, or private funds, value only becomes real when someone shows up with cash.

Katelin and Gabe recap the offseason and shed light on their addiction to baseball cards
.
It's the "Series Finale" of the beloved segment "Pull Your Card," where BT and Sal open up packs of 1988 Score baseball cards and challenge each other to guess the player's team. The stakes are high, and the competition is fierce, as the hosts try to remember the teams of jobbers like Fred Manrique and stars like Wally Backman (Mets). Sal gets off to a slow start and is devastated by misses on Jeff Reardon and Rick Dempsey (who turns out to be a Dodger in '88, not an Indian). But in a twist of luck, BT gets a run of repeat cards (Fred Manrique, Ozzie Virgil), sealing a spectacular comeback victory. The segment ends with BT crowned the "Back-to-Back-to-Back Champ," leaving Sal licking his wounds and questioning if Hof orchestrated a sabotage!
BT and Sal dive into the latest Knicks trade buzz, discussing reports that the team is deep in negotiations with the Pelicans to acquire local product and defensive "pit bull," Jose Alvarado. The hosts debate the likely scenario that role players must be on the move to make the deal happen, especially with the trade window opening soon. Sal gives high praise to the fiery Alvarado, calling him a perfect culture fit. The segment is peppered with listener calls, including an emotional sign-off from "Crazy Girl" Carey and a classic Daniel Jones/Giants debate with caller Brett. The show concludes with a reflection on the hosts' final segment of Baseball Cards and their partnership.
The baseball card landscape has witnessed several shifts since the turn of the millennium. In this tiered ranking, we determine which years stand out, which fall back, and which years do we wish would just go away?OBC is hosted by Jason @contrarian_cards and Dave Schwartz @Iowa_Dave_Sportscards

Dermatology visits, for example, often feel like interruptions in a busy schedule, but they're essential for maintaining long-term health. Whether it's a routine skin check or addressing a specific concern, these visits provide peace of mind and ensure that small issues don't become larger ones. But sometimes, as you will hear, we often are confused by the charges we receive during our visits. Don't get us wrong, these things are needed, but it is surprising just how things are billed. Recently, we played Ayar, a game that has some very enjoyable mechanics, some challenging choices to make, and straight forward gameplay. Then there is Temple Code which scratches a different itch, with its puzzle-like challenges and mind-numbing play that feels almost like deciphering ancient mysteries with friends. Then there's Bretwalda, a sweeping strategy game set in early medieval Britain. Its blend of area control and historical flavor makes every session feel like a grand contest of wits and could create lively discussions long after the board is packed away. APBA Baseball and Baseball Card GM both capture the thrill of America's pastime, but they do so in very different ways. APBA Baseball, which grew up playing, is a classic tabletop simulation that has been around for decades, using dice and player cards to recreate the strategy and drama of real games. Where APBA leans into simulation and tradition, Baseball Card GM emphasizes creativity and collection, turning the act of managing a team into a dynamic, customizable experience using real baseball cards. Together, they highlight two different but equally engaging ways to enjoy baseball beyond the ballpark.

This week on the podcast - a bizarre ending to a high school football game, the soon to be expired Collective Bargaining Agreement has baseball fans scrambling to learn about salary caps, and we open another set of baseball cards.Errata: Greg Maddux finished his career with 355 wins. The pitchers named plus Warren Spahn and Kid Nichols had more. Tom Prince's "short career" lasted 17 manor league seasons, but Prince only played in 579 games. He managed in one game for the Pirates in 2019. Steve Lyons once famously slid into first base and to remove the dirt started removing his pants, until he remembered people were watching. Craig was thinking of Greg Harris, for some reason, of which there were two of which one (Greg A. Harris) was ambidextrous. Harris pitched both left and right handed in one game in 1995.
