PSA's new grading tier arrives with 9.9 million cards still backlogged, raising big questions about what comes next for collectors. We debate whether today's sports card market is built to last, Panini's push into Sonic and Zelda trading cards, and CGC's partnership with EB Games Canada.

How much of your fertility is written in your DNA, and how much can you actually influence? In this episode, I'm joined by genetic counselor Natalie Samson to explore the fascinating world of genetics, epigenetics, and what they really mean for your fertility journey. Natalie breaks down the difference between the genes you're born with and how those genes get expressed, which is where epigenetics comes in. We talk about how your nutrition, stress, environment, and daily choices can turn certain genes on or off, and why that shift is so empowering. We also get into why MTHFR is only one gene out of more than 20,000, the role of methylation and hormone metabolism, what carrier screening can reveal about both male and female fertility, and how personalized testing can take the guesswork out of supporting your body. This is a grounded, hopeful conversation about understanding your unique blueprint. Your body isn't broken. Sometimes it's simply waiting for the right information. Key Takeaways: - The genes you're born with don't change, but how they're expressed can shift based on your nutrition, stress, environment, and lifestyle. This is the heart of epigenetics, and it puts more in your hands than most people realize. - MTHFR is just one gene out of more than 20,000. Looking at the full methylation pathway, rather than MTHFR alone, gives a much clearer picture of how to support your body. - More methylated B vitamins isn't always better. With certain gene variants like COMT, too much can actually drive anxiety, a racing heart, and trouble sleeping, so personalized dosing matters. - Carrier screening can reveal more than inherited conditions. It can sometimes uncover hidden contributors to both male and female infertility. - Genetic testing can guide truly personalized nutrition by showing how you process folate, omega-3s, histamine, and gluten, instead of prescribing a one-size-fits-all diet. - Your intuition counts as data. The most useful approach combines genetic testing, bloodwork, and your own felt sense of your body. - Privacy matters. Working with a HIPAA-compliant provider keeps your genetic information protected in ways that direct-to-consumer testing often does not. Guest Bio: Natalie Samson, MS, CGC, INHC, is a board-certified genetic counselor and integrative nutrition health coach, and the founder of Golden Genetics. After training in cancer genetics, she felt called toward a more proactive and preventative approach, inspired in part by watching her brother thrive through holistic, lifestyle-based care. Today she blends conventional genetic testing with functional, nutrition-focused interpretation to help people understand their unique genetic blueprint and make personalized, empowered choices for their health and fertility. Her practice is fully virtual, and she works with individuals and couples through preconception and beyond.

Dr. Beckett discusses current grading company dilemmas, noting PSA and BGS pauses and SGC's sharp basic-rate increase, and asks why PSA graded fewer cards in August despite attacking its backlog. He argues output varies with submission mix because higher-tier cards take longer and require greater scrutiny, and the true scarce resource is trained, credible grading judgment—not plastic, shipping, imaging, or even raw headcount. Beckett explains why double shifts risk burnout, why scaling slows production as senior graders train new hires, and why PSA's $80 floor functions as demand control enabled by pricing power and resale premiums. He comments on CGC's strength in TCG, TAG's human-review bottlenecks despite tech, the limits of AI, the subjectivity of eye appeal metrics, the rise of pre-grading, changing perceptions of raw cards during pauses, and why PSA's registry/pop report network effects are hard to match.   00:39 Why PSA Output Dropped 01:43 Training Limits Capacity 02:32 Burnout and Shift Myths 04:39 PSA Pricing Power Explained 07:40 BGS Pause and Standards 09:00 SGC Price Hike Strategy 11:21 TAG Tech and AI Limits 13:00 Eye Appeal and iAppeal Debate 17:02 New Grading Entrants Ahead 18:45 Pay and Industry Moats

In this episode, host Ananya Jain, CGC, is joined by Scarlett Shiloh, a patient advocate living with Lynch syndrome, and Melissa Levin, MSW, LICSW, a clinical social worker who leads the Neuro-Inclusive Oncology Care and Empowerment Program at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.Drawing on lived and professional experience, the panel discusses the sensory, communication, and emotional barriers neurodivergent patients may encounter while navigating hereditary cancer care- from preparing for colonoscopies and managing changes to familiar or safe foods to processing complex information and coping with anxiety around appointments and procedures.The conversation also offers practical guidance for health care professionals on providing more individualized and accessible care, including using clear instructions, preparing patients for what to expect, considering the full sensory environment, asking patients what support they need, and following up after appointments.Whether neurodiversity-affirming care is already central to your practice or represents a newer area of learning, we welcome you to this conversation. We recognize that meaningful systems change takes time and collective effort, particularly within clinical environments where factors such as pace, lighting, and noise may be difficult to change. We appreciate every listener's willingness to engage with this topic and the many clinicians already working to make care more accessible, inclusive, and responsive to the individual needs of neurodivergent patients.Listen to this powerful conversation and discover how thoughtful, practical changes can make hereditary cancer care more inclusive, supportive, and accessible for everyone.

Dr. Beckett and Rich Klein discuss the need for a better way to connect employers and candidates in the sports card industry, weighing an Indeed-style job aggregator against the hobby's historically successful word-of-mouth, relationship-based hiring. They reference openings like Beckett cataloging roles, internal postings at COMC, and CGC hiring graders and verification specialists with bonuses and benefits, while noting potential conflicts of interest such as employee submission programs at grading companies. They argue that strong culture, cross-training, and trusted references helped Beckett hire and promote passionate entry-level talent, but today growth in the hobby requires far more employees. They also note challenges recruiting when entrepreneurial collectors can earn more independently, and why benefits and steady pay matter as people age.   00:35 Need a Hobby Job Board 02:42 Hiring Entry Level Talent 04:13 Culture and Internal Growth 05:02 Aggregators and LinkedIn Limits 06:52 AI Pitfalls and Networking 08:42 Trustworthy Store Staffing 10:28 Big Company Hiring and Cross Training 11:10 Grading Jobs and Conflicts 12:27 Fanatics Warehouse Security 13:43 High Potential Hobby Hires 14:21 10X Hobby Needs Workers 14:44 Why Young Talent Won't Apply 15:51 Paychecks and Benefits Matter    

Fünf Jahre Hobby, unzählige Streams, Podcasts, Events und Gespräche mit euch – und jetzt beginnt für uns ein neues Kapitel. Wir sprechen ausführlich über unsere neue Partnerschaft mit Fanatics Collect und vor allem darüber, was sie für Das Hobby und unsere Community bedeutet. Bleiben unsere Formate unabhängig? Können wir weiterhin Topps und Fanatics kritisieren? Was verändert sich bei Streams, Events und Giveaways? Und welche neuen Möglichkeiten entstehen dadurch für euch? Außerdem blicken wir auf den kommenden Collector's Day, sprechen über unseren aktuellen One-Piece-Film, CGC vs. PSA und darüber, warum sich Sportkarten beim Design und bei der Kartenqualität vielleicht einiges von TCGs abschauen können. Und ganz nebenbei beweist Alex noch, dass seine Talente offensichtlich weit über Sportkarten hinausgehen. Eine Waschmaschine, ein Leinenanzug und ein überflutetes Wohnzimmer spielen dabei eine nicht ganz unwichtige Rolle.

Vintage soccer cards are still being mispriced, and this episode shows you exactly where the opportunity is hiding. A rare 1989 Kenner Sports Stars Forza Campioni set featuring Maradona, Baggio, Maldini, Van Basten, and more gets a deep look through the lens of population reports, first-card debates, and real sales data.The case is simple: when a Maradona PSA 9 has already set a record at $345, the low pop on this set starts to look a lot more interesting. You'll hear why these sealed figurine-card hybrids matter, how centering and corner wear can make or break a grade, and why the difference between a true first card and a debated first card changes the entire investment case.You'll discover:Why the 1989 Kenner set is drawing attention as vintage soccer heats upHow PSA population data changes the conversation around Maradona, Baggio, Maldini, Van Basten, and Lothar MatthausWhy these cards are so hard to grade well, and what to watch for before you buyHow the same market patterns show up in basketball and soccer, from Larry Bird and Michael Jordan to iconic football legendsWhy the host sees value in low-risk, high-upside entries instead of chasing hypeWe also get a wider look at the modern hobby machine: PSA backlogs, grading economics, CGC versus PSA resale gaps, and the wild auction world where a Cooper Flagg debut patch is already climbing past $3 million even though the seller does not own the card. That leads into a bigger question collectors should be asking right now - what really creates long-term value, and what is just noise?If you care about vintage soccer, first cards, pop counts, grading strategy, or simply finding the next underpriced corner of the hobby before everyone else does, this is essential listening. It is part market breakdown, part collector philosophy, and part warning shot for anyone chasing hype without doing the homework.

The Franken-Wagner discussion continues with one of the hobby's biggest questions: should restoration remain hidden, or should it be openly disclosed and accepted? We examine whether transparent restoration could actually discourage deception, why this unique Wagner is unlike any other restored card, and how CGC arrived at its "Authentic Restored" designation. Along the way, we debate whether restored cards deserve a second life, whether this Wagner is better viewed as art than a traditional sports card, and whether this auction could influence the future of card conservation. This episode goes beyond one card and explores what honesty, provenance, and transparency could look like in the sports card hobby moving forward.

This week on Bronze and Modern Gods, NOVA #1 is taking off.Our Hot Book of the Week is NOVA #1 from Marvel Comics, the 1976 first appearance of Richard Rider. After new reporting that the long-discussed Nova project may be moving forward as a feature film instead of a TV series, sales jumped hard, with raw copies selling for as much as $130.We also talk about NEO Comic Con, plus a little Show & Tell, Viewer Mail, and new Member shoutouts.For the 25 Year Rule, we dig into ORION #19 from DC Comics, a 2001 Joker: Last Laugh crossover issue where Walter Simonson brings Joker madness crashing into Jack Kirby's Fourth World. It is weird, cheap, very 2001, and still mostly a $3 to $10 raw book.Our Underrated Books of the Week include:DIE #1 from Image Comics, the Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans fantasy horror hit often described as “Goth Jumanji,” with CGC 9.8s still surprisingly affordable.DAREDEVIL #191, Frank Miller's brutal "Russian Roulette” issue, with Daredevil confronting a hospitalized Bullseye in one of the darkest single-issue stories of Miller's original run.Support the show by becoming a channel Member. Members get weekly members-only livestreams, extended Show & Tell, and shoutouts in future videos.

Has sports card restoration reached a turning point? Jeremy Lee is joined by Leighton Sheldon to examine one of the most controversial cards the hobby has seen in years: the reconstructed T206 Honus Wagner, commonly referred to as the "FrankenWagner." The discussion explores whether this remarkable piece should be viewed as restoration, recreation, fabrication, or something entirely new. They also debate how grading companies should classify reconstructed cards, whether this card's famous story adds to its value, and what precedent it could set for the future of vintage collecting. Topics include: The reconstructed T206 Honus Wagner Restoration vs. recreation Is the "FrankenWagner" still an authentic card? The Tommy Leach background controversy CGC's "Authentic Restored" designation Could this create a dangerous precedent? Where does restoration end? Predicting the final auction price Whether you agree or disagree, this conversation asks one of the biggest philosophical questions facing today's hobby. Thank you for listening to Sports Cards Live.

In this episode of DNA Dialogues, we explore two innovative approaches to improving access to genetic testing and hereditary cancer care. First, Daniella Kamara and Mariana Niell Swiller discuss UCLA's GENETECA™ program, a point-of-care genetic testing model that integrates cancer genetic services directly into oncology clinics. In the second half of the episode, Tesla Theoryn discusses research examining why many people who express interest in genetic testing never complete the process. The conversation explores how life circumstances, privacy and insurance concerns, changing readiness, and healthcare system barriers influence decision-making over time.   Segment 1: From the ground up: Launching GENETECA™ (GENetic education and TEsting for CAncer) a point-of-care cancer genetics service at an academic medical center   Guest Bios: Daniella Kamara, MS, LCGC is a cancer genetic counselor at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She has been a cancer genetic counselor for over 10 years and works both in the clinical and research settings helping individuals and families who face a hereditary predisposition to cancer. She has contributed to various research studies over the years aiming to increase access to hereditary cancer testing, creating novel models for support for individuals and their family members, and exploring population-based testing models. She is passionate about supporting patients and their family members to feel empowered by their genetic test results and finding ways to make it easier to navigate healthcare for those facing a hereditary predisposition to cancer.    Mariana Niell-Swiller, MS, CGC, is a board-certified genetic counselor with 20 years of experience specializing in hereditary cancer risk assessment. She holds a BS in Biology from Cornell University and an MS in Genetic Counseling from Brandeis University, and began her clinical career after working as a molecular genetics laboratory technician in neurogenetics. She has since held clinical and leadership roles across a range of settings, from community hospitals to academic medical centers. In her current role as Director of Cancer Genetics at UCLA Health, Mariana leads both clinical program development and innovative IT infrastructure to expand access to hereditary cancer services. She is driven by the belief that thoughtfully designed systems can make genomic medicine more scalable, equitable, and sustainable — and is committed to advancing that vision across health systems. Outside of work, she enjoys kayaking, hiking, and dancing, and shares a love of nature with her husband and son. In this segment we discuss: - Increased access to genetic testing for pancreatic cancer patients through a point-of-care model - The benefits and challenges of mainstreaming genetic testing within routine oncology care - How genetic counseling assistants help improve efficiency, scalability, and patient access to cancer genetics services - Lessons learned from implementing GENETECA™ and balancing greater access with the personalized aspects of genetic counseling   Segment 2: Cancer genetic testing uptake in the primary care setting: Patient perspectives on barriers and facilitators throughout the testing process   Guest Bio: Tesla Theoryn, M.Ed., is a qualitative researcher and former high school science teacher with an applied interest in science communication and decision-making in the context of genetic testing. Her work focuses on how medical messaging and timing influence patient engagement and healthcare decisions. She is currently completing her doctorate from the University of Washington in Public Health Genetics. http://www.linkedin.com/in/theoryn   In this segment we discuss: - How life circumstances influence uptake of genetic testing - How re-offering genetic testing over time may change uptake as people's priorities, concerns, and readiness change - The impact of privacy, insurance, and legal concerns on genetic testing decisions - Strategies for expanding hereditary cancer screening in primary care while improving equity, accessibility, and patient-centered care Would you like to nominate a JoGC article to be featured in the show?

Dr. Beckett discusses how grading backlogs, especially at PSA, hurt the hobby's liquidity and confidence more than pricing, noting long waits, submission shutdowns, and the impact on modern product timing. He reviews the current landscape (BGS improving, SGC positioned for vintage, CGC strong in TCG) and proposes “segmentation” with separate queues, pricing, and training lanes for TCG, modern, and vintage, arguing authenticity/alteration detection is the top priority. Beckett suggests operational fixes such as vouchers for customers willing to accept slower service, incentives for bulk/multiplicity submissions to speed grading, and loyalty points that can provide queue advantages while penalizing bad-faith submissions. He also highlights registries and pop reports as key infrastructure and suggests pre-screeners could offer labeled, non-binding raw grade estimates to avoid long grading limbo.   02:06 Backlogs and Hobby Impact 03:14 Separate Queues by Category 05:04 Training Lanes and Authenticity 08:04 Pricing and Voucher Ideas 09:53 BCCG Story and Bulk Efficiency 13:01 Queue Perks and Loyalty Points 14:31 Eye Appeal and Submitter Notes 15:50 Pre-Graders and Raw Reviews

Use code "SCI" at ARENACLUB.COMA massive 10-million-card backlog has forced PSA to officially shut down all value-level submission tiers, effective immediately. Today on Cards on the Table, T-Pot, Scotty B, and Carter break down the shocking news and analyze exactly what this means for the hobby. With regular service ($79.99) now the cheapest available option, we discuss the ripple effect this will have on box prices, modern "rip and flip" strategies, and the vintage card market.Plus, we cover the rest of the week's biggest hobby news, including the record-breaking $5.11 million private sale of the Victor Wembanyama Prizm Black 1/1 (the "Black Curtain"), and the ongoing packaging issues with eBay's Authenticity Guarantee program.In this episode, we discuss:The PSA Shutdown: Analyzing the 10-million-card backlog driven by the explosive growth of TCGs (Pokémon and One Piece). We discuss whether PSA's massive expansion will actually solve the issue, how this completely neutralizes the value of the Collectors Club membership, and if alternative grading companies like Beckett, SGC, and CGC can handle the overflow.SGC's Dwindling Market Share: Why SGC's volume is down 70% year-over-year, and what Collectors' acquisition means for the future of the "Tuxedo" slab and the vintage market.Wemby's $5.1 Million Record: The 2023 Panini Prizm Victor Wembanyama Black 1/1 just sold privately for $5.11 million. We compare this massive sale to the Aaron Judge Superfractor Auto, debate if the NBA market is overhyped compared to baseball, and touch on the controversy surrounding the use of Kurt's Card Care prior to the card's grading.eBay Authenticity Flaws: Why are high-end raw cards arriving from the eBay Authenticity Guarantee program sliding out of their semi-rigid holders? We debate simple fixes and why the program is still a massive net positive for the hobby despite packaging flaws.How do you think PSA's shutdown of value submissions will impact the sports card market over the next 12 months?
