    Shohei Ohtani is the entry point for a wider conversation about strategy, timing, and identity in the modern hobby. Leighton Sheldon puts Paul Hickey on the spot with a question many collectors think about but rarely articulate clearly: if you have $1,000 or $10,000 to spend on Ohtani, what's the smartest way to approach it right now? Paul answers from an unapologetic Operator perspective, explaining why Ohtani behaves differently than almost any other modern athlete, how raw-to-grade math actually works, and why early January can be one of the least crowded decision windows of the year. From there, the discussion expands into bigger hobby dynamics, including grading labels versus true condition, friction between Purists and Operators, and why Paul deliberately caps his premium community to protect both value and signal. This episode stands on its own whether you're a collector, an investor, or somewhere in between. In this episode: A practical Ohtani buying framework for $1,000 vs $10,000 budgets One big card versus multiple plays, and how risk tolerance changes the answer Why Ohtani is a data anomaly in modern cards Raw-to-grade strategy explained without hype Timing buys around grading backlogs and the MLB calendar The grading company versus card condition debate Why Operator and Purist perspectives clash and why both still matter How community size can quietly impact markets If you want to go deeper: Follow Sports Cards Live and leave a rating or review on your podcast platform of choice Take the Hobby Spectrum assessment at HobbySpectrum.com to see where you land Opt into the Spectrum Directory to connect with collectors who think like you Explore Paul Hickey's work at NoOffSeason.com and the Sports Card Strategy Show Learn more about your ad choices.

    Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 1992 film "Mr. Baseball." They introduce the film (1:07), with an overview of the story, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film, with a new metaphor (5:31). Amount of Baseball (14:02) has a good variety, and they contrast the unnecessary Yankee stadium with the real Japanese baseball stadiums, plus the Frank Thomas appearance and a player comp.  Baseball Accuracy (19:52) is strong, although the MLB and NPB do not trade, and you shouldn't bring your top hand over. A dive into the shuuto pitch (Yu Darvish, Aaron Nola, Shohei Ohtani) and Ricky Davis's debut (Frank Thomas, JP Arencibia). There are timeline issues with MLB/NPB seasons and the Dodgers series, there are problems with Doc the Agent, the nightmare as a hitter's nightmare, and some poor scouting practices. But there are fun references to the hotfoot tradition (Roger McDowell?) and John Kruk. A brief history of the Chunichi Dragons franchise and their most famous player Michio Nishizawa, plus Larry Doby, Don Newcombe and Matt Stairs. NPB home run records include discussion of Sadaharu Oh, Randy Bass, Tuffy Rhodes, Alex Cabrera and Wladimir Balentien. Cultural differences between Japanese baseball and American baseball, including facial hair (Bob Horner, Eric Thames), the "Gaijin strikezone," extra innings, and the cap-tipping tradition (Osamu Higashio, Dick Davis). Also the Brett Myers/Kyle Kendrick prank, Don Mattingly comparisons, and Tom Selleck's athleticism.  Storytelling (50:30) discusses how a formula is good for reversals but bad for long scenes, the bunting trope in baseball movies, the film's cultural in/sensitivities, Cleveland/Nagoya comparisons, the bath scene, and problems with the Lame Romantic Subplot.  The Score Tool (1:15:37) discusses this 1992 timepiece from Jerry Goldsmith, which slightly divides our scouts. Acting (1:19:18) considers the performances of Tom Selleck, Ken Takakura, Toshi Shioya, Aya Takanashi, and the baseball team ensemble. Neither Delightfulness of Catcher (1:26:08) or Delightfulness of Announcer (1:27:18) offer much. In Lack of Misogyny (1:27:56), they consider the believability of the Lame Romantic Subplot, Hiroko's own issues, and the repairing of the father/daughter relationship. But why does Hiroko like Jack? No spoilers on the following segments: Yes or No (1:40:23), Six Degrees of Baseball (1:44:12), Favorite Moment (1:45:26) Least Favorite Moment (1:47:44), Scene We Would Have Liked to See (1:49:42), Dreamiest Player (1:51:03), Favorite Performance (1:51:27), and Next Time (1:53:15).  Join Our Discord & Support The Show: PL+ | PL Pro - Get 15% off Yearly with code PODCASTProud member of the Pitcher List Fantasy Baseball Podcast Network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    In this episode, host Travis Chappell and producer Eric wrestle with one deceptively simple question: What does “enough” money actually look like? The conversation ranges from private jets and yachts to first-class flights, five-star dinners, and court-side sports experiences—and why most people wildly overestimate what it takes to live an extraordinary, but not billionaire-level, life.​ On this episode we talk about: Travis' personal definition of “enough”: first-class flights, five-star dining, great seats at games and concerts, and rich family travel—without obsessively checking the bank app Why jets, yachts, and 17,000-square-foot mansions are not actually part of his goals How friends use money to buy unforgettable experiences (like chatting with Shohei Ohtani from behind the dugout or sitting courtside during NBA playoffs) The tradeoff between Grant Cardone/Alex Hormozi-level drive and the time cost of maintaining that lifestyle Why you must adjust either your goals or your expectations if you are not willing to work like an ultra-elite entrepreneur Data on what it really takes to be top 10% and top 1% income in the U.S.—and why that number is lower than most people guess Why an “extraordinary life” is more attainable than social media makes it seem if you define it thoughtfully Top 3 Takeaways “Enough” is personal—but it must be specific. For Travis, it is the freedom to buy high-quality experiences (travel, dining, memories with kids) without financial anxiety, not owning every luxury toy on earth. Ultra-wealth has a workload attached. If you want billionaire-style outcomes, you must be honest about whether you are truly willing to live the grind that level requires; if not, recalibrate. Extraordinary doesn't require billions. Hitting high-six-figure or low-seven-figure income and net worth—combined with sane spending choices—can fund a rich, experience-filled life for most people. Notable Quotes “I'm not chasing a jet and a yacht. I just want to take my family to Italy for three weeks and not worry about staying in a sketchy hostel.” “If you're not willing to work like Grant Cardone, you probably shouldn't expect Grant Cardone's life.” “Extraordinary is only one or two levels above where most people are now—not some impossible billionaire mountain.”​ ✖️✖️✖️✖️

    Shohei Ohtani $3M Logoman Sale + Opportunity Cost vs Comps + Why Comps Control The Hobby

    We tackle one of the biggest hobby moments of the year: Shohei Ohtani's 1-of-1 Gold MLB Logoman autograph selling for $3 million on Fanatics Collect, followed days later by a $3.1 million Jordan Kobe dual Logoman sale at Heritage. From there, the conversation widens into something much bigger than one card. Is modern ultra high-end moving too fast? Does a card need “time to breathe,” or does Ohtani's career, global reach, and historical context override that idea entirely? We compare the sale to Paul Skenes' $1.1 million debut patch, debate opportunity cost versus singular grail ownership, and question whether one or two buyers can drag an entire market upward. The discussion then pivots into a deep dive on the comp economy. How much judgment are collectors outsourcing to strangers? Are comps guidance or control? When do comps work, when do they break, and how do concepts like triangulation, opportunity cost, and buyer intent actually play out in real hobby behavior? The segment closes with a heavy PSA conversation following the downgrade of a Wilt Chamberlain rookie from PSA 10 to PSA 9, wiping out roughly $800,000 in market value. We discuss whether that sale should remain in public comp databases, if it deserves an asterisk, and what “descriptive vs prescriptive” data really means when trust, grading, and market memory collide.

    As 2025 comes to a close, Sportly looks back at a year that reshaped sports far beyond the scoreboard. Host Kavitha Davidson reflects on defining moments across leagues and borders—from historic performances by A'ja Wilson and Shohei Ohtani to the cultural impact of the NBA's new media era, the resurgence of tennis rivalries, and the continued growth of women's sports. This year-end episode revisits some of Sportly's most meaningful stories, including the political legacy of ping-pong diplomacy, the origins of women's sports in the U.S., the Boston Marathon as a site of collective memory, Canada's national identity through the Toronto Blue Jays, and the ongoing fight for Indigenous sovereignty in lacrosse ahead of the 2028 Olympics. The episode also confronts the more complex truths of 2025: sports betting scandals, labor disputes, media consolidation, and what happens when billion-dollar sports institutions struggle to regulate themselves.  Looking ahead, Kavitha explores what's coming next: the 2026 World Cup in North America, the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics, and the unanswered questions that will define the future of sports. Sportly is a podcast about sports, culture, politics, and identity, and why the stories behind the games matter just as much as the games themselves. Host: Kavitha A.

    Episode 48 takes listeners inside one of the most dominant franchises in modern sports: the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fresh off back-to-back World Series championships, the Dodgers are rewriting the blueprint for what a modern sports dynasty looks like. Great dynasties do not happen by accident. They are built with intention, culture and a relentless commitment to winning, much like great brands. In sports, that formula shows up on the field, in the front office and across a global fan base. Hosts Steve Rosa and Joe Kayata talk with Brandon Gomes, General Manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, to explore how one of the most recognizable brands in sports sustains greatness in an era of constant change. From player development and global recruiting to culture, leadership and long-term vision, Brandon reveals how championship organizations build systems that outlast trends and competitors. Brandon's journey to the GM seat wasn't linear. A former MLB pitcher with roots in Fall River, Massachusetts, he climbed from the clubhouse to the front office, gaining a rare perspective on what makes elite teams work. That experience now shapes how the Dodgers balance tradition with innovation, data with instinct and star power with team chemistry. A major driver of that evolution is the Dodgers' emergence as a truly global brand. With superstars like Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the team has expanded far beyond Los Angeles, connecting with fans across Asia and around the world. Gomes reflects on traveling with the club to South Korea and Tokyo, calling it a powerful reminder of baseball's universal reach. “Seeing the impact that baseball can have all over the world and the passion that it brings,” he says, underscores how the Dodgers are leading the future of the game on a global stage. This episode is a masterclass for marketers, leaders and sports fans alike. It's a reminder that dynasties aren't built on hype, they're built on clarity, culture and consistency. Get those right, and winning stops being a goal and becomes the brand. Have an idea for a guest? Reach out at brandslam@addventures.com.

    We are live from the Bleed Los Podcast as Drea, Anthony and Cody get you ready for the start of the Winter Meetings. The Dodgers enter the week with major decisions ahead and we break down what the team needs and what we want to see happen. We react to the Hall of Fame results where Jeff Kent finally gets in, but Fernando Valenzuela is left out again. He will not be eligible again until 2031 and Dodgers fans are frustrated. We discuss why Fernando continues to be overlooked. Teoscar Hernandez's name keeps popping up in trade conversations. Reporters Fabian Ardaya, Katie Woo and Bob Nightingale have all mentioned him. Does a trade make sense? Would the Dodgers really do it? If so, who replaces him? We also react to Dave Roberts saying Teoscar is the everyday right fielder “right now” and Brandon Gomes pushing back on the rumors. Free agent notes: The Dodgers likely aren't favorites for Cody Bellinger, Edwin Diaz or Kyle Tucker. Instead they prefer Harrison Bader and Robert Suarez. Smart moves or settling? We give our thoughts. Internationally, we discuss the biggest storyline of them all: Shohei Ohtani's role with Team Japan at the World Baseball Classic. Will he play? Will he pitch? What does this mean for the Dodgers heading into 2026? We react to Dave Roberts' comments and what they signal. Roki Sasaki's appearance on Japan's preliminary WBC roster adds even more intrigue, and we break down what that might look like for him.

    In this solo episode, Dee Kei thinks out loud about what keeps creatives going when outcomes are uncertain. He unpacks a hard truth many avoid: results are not guaranteed, and tying your identity to them creates desperation and bad decisions. Instead, build a career around love of the craft, alignment, and service to the song. Along the way, DK contrasts winning vs loving the game through Michael Jordan and Shohei Ohtani, explores ikigai and Japanese craftsmanship, pokes holes in hustle without purpose, and explains why the illusion of control shows up in studio superstitions. The practical takeaway is simple and difficult at once: enjoy the work, separate from the outcome, and your best mixes follow.What you will learnHow detaching from results reduces fear and improves decisionsWhen grit helps and when to keep your head down and take the hitWhy “use your ears” remains the only answer that mattersThe role of ritual and superstition in performance psychologyWhy craft comes first and money follows as a consequence SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

    RUNDOWN   We're in a foul mood after the Seahawks' ugly loss to the Rams, unpacking Sam Darnold's four-interception stinker, the looming backlash from "I told you so" Darnold haters, and the gut-punch of Gray Zabel's injury. Mitch unleashes a full-on rant about Greg Olsen's broadcast style ("constant blabber"), while Scott notes how different the offense looks without Tory Horton on the field. The mood finally lifts with the news that the Mariners have locked up Josh Naylor on a five-year extension, giving Seattle fans a much-needed jolt of optimism. And then some baseball outrage: Cal Raleigh narrowly finishes second in AL MVP to Aaron Judge. Mitch is joined by Brady Henderson (ESPN) and Jacson Bevens (Cigar Thoughts) to break down the Seahawks' 21–19 loss to the Rams — a game that somehow stayed close despite four interceptions from Sam Darnold and a red-zone drought. Brady calls it Darnold's first true "stinker" as a Seahawk, noting that none of the INTs were flukes, while Jacson credits a defense that "played its balls off" despite brutal field position. The trio discuss the seriousness of rookie guard Gray Zabel's knee injury, the need for Kubiak to scheme around an unstable interior line, and Darnold's growing turnover trend (now 14 on the year). Mitch welcomes back CBS College Football Analyst Rick Neuheisel, presented by Taco Time Northwest, to unpack a chaotic Week 12 in college football — starting with Rick's victory lap on his perfectly predicted Penn State cover. From there, the guys dive into a jam-packed headline wheel: Lane Kiffin's status as the hottest name on the coaching carousel (and why Rick believes he'll land at Florida), Georgia's dominance over Texas, Oklahoma's big win in Tuscaloosa, Texas A&M's shocking 30–3 comeback, and the SEC's suddenly muddled playoff picture. Mitch revisits Episode Zero — the never-meant-to-be-public "exhibition game" that quietly launched Mitch Unfiltered back in 2018. What begins as a joke about their faux–"Fool in the Rain" theme song turns into a hilarious, chaotic retelling of the infamous team-bus-fire in Auburn, complete with blown tires, smoke pouring into the cabin, players stampeding into a ditch, and the bus erupting in flames seconds after everyone escaped.   GUESTS   Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion Jason Hamilton | Former/Original Co-host of Mitch Unfiltered, UW Basketball Analyst   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Four Picks, One Big Contract, and a Gordon Lightfoot Birthday — Episode 358 Runs the Emotional Gauntlet 15:05 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 20:29 | Bad Clock, Bad Knees, and Bad Ballots: Seahawks Fall Short While Cal Raleigh Gets Robbed in the AL MVP Race 37:09 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Four Picks, One Chance: Seahawks Fall to Rams but Defense Shines Bright 55:28 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; Lane Kiffin Heat Check, SEC Bedlam & 300-Yard Burrito Winners — Neuheisel Goes Deep 1:20:56 | GUEST: Jason Hamilton EPISODE ZERO | Flashback | Before Episode 1: The Bus Fire, the Scentsy Pooh Era, and the Birth of Mitch Unfiltered 1:41:17 | Other Stuff Segment: Julio Rodríguez finishes 6th in AL MVP voting and makes first-team All-MLB, Julio's slow first half vs red-hot second half and fans overreacting, Julio's contract MVP/top-10 voting escalators, Shohei Ohtani's unanimous NL MVP and historic MVP + championship combo, Clippers fan jukes arena security during game and heckle about Clippers' defense, No. 1 national hoops recruit Tyran Stokes transferring to Rainier Beach High School, BYU's Kennard Davis Jr arrested on suspicion of DUI near campus, Patrick Beverley arrested on family-assault charge in Texas, Percy Harvin's Gainesville home catching fire (no serious injuries reported), United Airlines flight attendant found 10x over in-flight alcohol limit on SFO–London route, Whitesnake frontman David Coverdale announcing retirement, Bin Laden raid SEAL Robert O'Neill suing two podcasters for $25 million over "lied about the shot" claims RIPs: Kenny Easley – Seahawks Hall of Fame safety, "The Enforcer."
