Jason Lloyd of The Athletic joins Lima and Lance to explain why the Cavs have no realistic offseason moves left, calling Jonathan Kuminga their best remaining option while cautioning it's the end of July with nothing great on the market. He argues Evan Mobley now faces unfair pressure as the "you could've had Jalen Brown or LeBron instead" comparisons pile up, and that Jaylon Tyson needs a full training camp to find his fit alongside Harden, Mitchell, and Mobley. Lloyd shoots down the idea that keeping Darius Garland would've changed LeBron's decision, calling that framing unfair to the Cavs, and says he doesn't buy any cap-circumvention conspiracy around LeBron's Topps deal. He closes by ripping the Browns' quarterback situation as exhausting "nonsense," saying he has zero interest in watching Deshaun Watson play again and expects Cleveland to draft a quarterback in 2027.

Trade with GeoffDid Fanatics Fest just eat the National's lunch? Welcome back to Cards on the Table, coming to you straight from the Arena Club Studio inside Cards HQ!Today, we are unpacking the absolute madness of Fanatics Fest. With a staggering 200,000 attendees this year (up from 70,000 in year one!), an $80-$90 million production budget, and nonstop mainstream media coverage from ESPN to ABC World News Tonight, Fanatics Fest just changed the hobby forever. But with The National kicking off in just a few days, we debate whether Fanatics stole all the hype or if the expanded National show floor and sold-out VIP tickets prove there is room for both mega-events. Plus, the highly anticipated 2026 Topps Chrome Baseball has finally dropped, and the new Back-to-Back MVP Gold Logoman dual relics are breaking the internet. Will the Shohei Ohtani dual-patch, dual-auto (featuring both English and Kanji signatures) break the $3 million record set last year? We break down why Topps is currently making the best insert designs in a decade. Finally, the 2026 World Cup has officially come to a close. We analyze the market fallout: Why is Lamine Yamal's market dipping despite winning the Cup? How did Erling Haaland become the biggest hobby winner of the tournament? And what happens to the soccer card market leading up to Fanatics taking over the license in the 2030s?Shop CardsHQ Inventory Online ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqTrack card prices & your collection with Market Movers ►: https://bit.ly/marketmoversappJoin CardsHQ Breaks on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqbreaksJoin CardsHQ Shop on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqshopJoin CardsHQ Blitz on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqblitzJoin CardsHQ Hoops on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqhoopsJoin CardsHQ Poke on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqpokeDiscounted PSA/SGC Card Grading ►: https://bit.ly/gradingserviceDownload our Apps!

Dr. Beckett and this week's Hobby Hotline crew (Adam Palmer and Tony TJ is Online) discuss news that Michael Jordan has extended his exclusive legacy partnership with Upper Deck, including Goodwin Champions redemptions for signed 1986 Fleer basketball wax packs and an eBay-auctioned 1-of-1 signed 1986 Fleer box with 10% of proceeds going to the Boys and Girls Clubs Foundation. They debate opening versus keeping the packs sealed, note old pack “searchability,” and compare the concept to Topps' Mickey Mantle nostalgia redemption. They also cover Topps/Fanatics testing pre-ordered Topps Chrome Update mega boxes sold without shrink wrap, focusing on tamper concerns, scams, pricing, and whether it helps collectors buy at retail. The episode closes with thoughts on the collector tension between buying singles and unopened product and why boxes must be opened for singles to exist.   01:07 Jordan and Upper Deck Deal 01:18 Signed Fleer Pack Redemptions 03:07 Open or Keep Sealed 04:27 Nostalgia Redemption Trend 05:33 Why Partner Matters 08:24 Jordan Market Heat 09:44 Topps No Shrink Wrap Test 11:41 Tampering and Trust Issues 12:50 Pricing and Scalper Impact 15:25 Singles Versus Sealed Debate

A catcher catches a baseball dropped from a blimp and ruins his face in the process, and Jeff and Mark draft baseball players named after months, days, and holidays. Also: the answer to last week's puzzle — how many hits can a team get in one inning without scoring a run? Also in this episode: A Rickey Henderson story from spring training with the Padres. The universal DH debate. The last time a pitcher stole a base in the American League. Zack Hample straps on a chest protector and tries to break an 80-year-old record.

In dieser Folge sprechen wir über ein Thema, das viele beschäftigt: Warum verlassen manche Sammler das Hobby wieder – obwohl die Community scheinbar immer weiter wächst? Wir diskutieren, weshalb Ziele, Austausch und echte Community langfristig oft wichtiger sind als die nächste teure Karte. Außerdem sprechen wir über den aktuellen Trend von Sportkarten hin zu TCG, warum Art Cards und Künstler-Kollaborationen immer relevanter werden und welche Innovationen wir uns von Herstellern wie Topps künftig wünschen. Außerdem feiern wir ein kleines Jubiläum: Bald wird der Das Hobby Podcast fünf Jahre alt – und natürlich blicken wir auch darauf zurück, wie alles angefangen hat.

Rabbit Maranville spent 23 seasons in the National League, holds the all-time putouts record at shortstop, and has been in the Baseball Hall of Fame since 1954. He also faked his own death, got dangled out of a 14th floor hotel window by Jim Thorpe, and dove headfirst through a moving subway car. Jeff makes the case that Rabbit belongs in one Hall of Fame — just not the one in Cooperstown. Also in this episode: A minor league bat boy gets tossed for slamming baseballs into an umpire's mask.

Artist Gyula Németh joins Jace to discuss his work on the VeeFriends Topps Chrome trading-card set. Gyula explains how his years creating artwork for Panini's Kaboom inserts led to his involvement with VeeFriends, how Gary Vee's original character sketches are reinterpreted by different artists, and why preserving each character's established personality can make the process more challenging than illustrating a real athlete. Gyula also reveals which monsters became his favorite characters to draw, discusses the revisions behind some of the finished cards, and reacts to seeing rare collectibles featuring his artwork listed for extraordinary prices. The conversation concludes with a broader look at the accessibility of card collecting and its ability to connect collectors across generations.

Topps is changing the sports card game forever by shipping UNSEALED boxes to combat scalpers—but is it actually going to work? Welcome back to Cards on the Table, and today we are breaking down the biggest market-shifting headlines hitting the hobby this week!First up, Topps has dropped a bombshell announcement: factory plastic wrap is being completely removed from upcoming Topps Chrome Update Basketball Mega Boxes to discourage immediate resale by scalpers. We debate whether this unsealed strategy protects collectors or completely destroys product value.Next, the highly anticipated checklist for the first-ever NBA Rookie Debut Patch Autographs (RDPAs) is finally here! With Fanatics officially running the NBA license, the chase is on for Cooper Flagg, Ace Bailey, and Dylan Harper grails. We look at who will have the most coveted patch outside of Flagg and how the non-auto versions will hold up.Plus, Michael Jordan just signed a massive "legacy partner" deal with Upper Deck that includes putting 23 autographed, factory-sealed 1986 Fleer Basketball packs into 2026 Goodwin Champions! We react to this legendary partnership and what it means for Upper Deck's future.Finally, we play a round of Overrated or Underrated with the exploding trend of World Cup sticker albums in the U.S. market, and whether Fanatics should keep the tradition alive when they take over the FIFA license.

You all wanted to know what I think- well here it is. I am happy about the Topps move to sell boxes without the plastic wrap. And on the Honus - I wouldn't have restored it myself- but I have no problem with the restoration- because it's known and not done in the shadows.

Tim Kurkjian is a baseball expert, so naturally he built a team made up entirely of players who have one thing in common: the number 250 played a significant role in their careers. Trust us, it's a fun and fitting way for baseball fans to celebrate America's 250th anniversary. The Rangers and Marlins are both on a roll, while Dave Roberts reaches a managerial milestone faster than anyone in history. Plus, the Brewers honor one of their own with a stunning new mural—and it's well deserved. In this week's Quirkjians, we've got strikeouts, struggling Yankees, and Max Muncy times two. Plus, who's refusing to swing at the first pitch? Steven Kwan, and you can take that to the bank. Jeff opens a box of 2001 Topps cards that honestly may have never been opened before (so much for preserving their value). Then it's time for the Alphabest, where the last names beginning with "O" spark plenty of debate thanks to Shohei Ohtani's two-way greatness.

Episode 297 of Tom Clark's 6M Podcast is a look at Mars Attacks!. Tom Clark and Phil Lindsey break down Tim Burton's 1996 sci-fi black comedy, based on the infamous Topps trading card series. They examine the film's massive ensemble cast, its satirical take on alien invasion movies, and how Burton blended 1950s B-movie influences with dark humor, over-the-top destruction, and one of the most unconventional blockbuster casts of the decade. They also discuss the film's troubled development, the decision to replace stop-motion effects with CGI, Danny Elfman's score, and the movie's evolution from box office disappointment to cult classic.

Dr. Beckett welcomes Graig Miller (Mid-Life Sports Cards) and his father Michael. They discuss Graig's new book, Midlife Card Çollecting Stories, and the growth of his YouTube channel and podcast into a network. Michael describes Graig as naturally shy and reflects on how they both approach teaching and coaching, emphasizing meaningful communication over performance. They compare collecting styles: Michael's narrow focus on rebuilding and grading his childhood 1959–1960 Topps sets and gradually moving earlier, versus Greg's eclectic interests including 100+ year-old cards and vintage golf cards. Michael explains returning to the hobby through taking his kids to 1980s card shows and later reconnecting with Graig after losing his wife. They highlight the special value of a reclaimed childhood card with Michael's name, the actual card from his childhood, and discuss collecting driven by passion, personal goals, and community rather than competition or card value.   00:43 Graig's Hobby Journey 02:51 Teaching and Coaching Style 05:54 Collecting Focus Differences 10:08 Reclaiming a Childhood Card 12:07 Hobby as Side Gig 15:40 Golf and Healthy Competition

And now for something completely different. This month, we're proud to present a special show focussing on assistance for newcomers to the hobby, but hopefully, we have helpful nuggets of advice for all listeners. We'll look at what you can collect, where to find it, pro's and con's of the various marketplaces, how to spot repro (and why), options for display, and a lot more besides. Special guest interviewee this month is Wayne Richards, a collector who had the toys in the 70s and 80s, but as an adult collector, he's only been back in the game for about a year. He tells Andy P about his collecting journey, his growing collection, and a few lessons learned along the way.    Elsewhere, the lads chat about how they got back into collecting themselves, discuss their latest pick-ups, and Face-Off in Argentina, New Zealand, Japan and France.  Rich hosts this months quiz, impartial as ever, and the lads look at the latest and greatest finds from the collecting world - a Harbert Yoda, a Mexican record, Brazilian Model Trems, Star Wars Vans, and a radio press kit. In Rebel Briefings we celebrate in Cincinnati, wonder Y wings, get retro with Jeroen, discuss dodgy die-cast, ask whether Rebel Transports are poo, hear about Heritage hi-jinks, celebrate Celebration, and look at Topps prices paid. No Licensee this month as we just couldn't fit it into such a packed show!  Find the podcast in all the usual places.

When an announcement was made last year that Universal Studios was making a movie about Archie Andrews produced by Hollywood heavyweights, it should have been a victory for one of comics' most enduring franchises. Instead, it triggered a legal war which ties up a Beverly Hills mansion, accusations of threats fit for an “organized crime figure” and a much-awaited movie on the line.With a UCC foreclosure auction set for June 15, the fate of Archie Andrews — and the Archie Comics empire — hangs in the balance.In this episode, 9fin's global head of distressed and LevFin, Max Frumes, sat down with distressed debt reporter Maria Heeter and LME legal analyst Laurie Tomassian, co-authors of a recent investigation into the dispute between lender Raven Capital and Archie Comics co-CEO Jonathan Goldwater to break down how it all unraveled.As a quick shoutout, the episode references and includes short audio clips from the 1969 hit 'Sugar, Sugar' by the fictional bubblegum-pop group, The Archies. The song held the #1 spot on the Billboard Top 100 for eight weeks between October and December 1969. The episode theme song is a tongue-in-cheek homage to The Archies' second studio album, Everything's Archie, created bespoke for this episode by our producer Chase Collum.Clarifications: There's actually no show called “Desperate Mormon Housewives. Instead the popular reality television series was called "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives". Also, while Archie Comics did once don the wrappers of Topps bubble gum, that was in the 1950s, and the host was almost certainly referring to Bazooka Joe.Have any feedback on this episode?

On May 17, 1998, David Wells showed up to Yankee Stadium having slept maybe two and a half hours, running on coffee, a single pancake, and whatever was left of Saturday night. He then threw the 15th perfect game in Major League Baseball history in front of 49,820 people who were mostly there for a Beanie Baby. That's the story this week. We go deep on the whole thing — the legendary SNL after-party that didn't happen, the cast members who swear they were there and provably weren't, the Mandela Effect that turned one hungover pitcher into baseball mythology, and what Wells actually did in the nine years after the game nobody thought he had left in him. Also in this episode: Rickey Henderson and Jim Rice stop by Letterman to deliver a top 10 list, Steve Garvey turns up as an extra in The Godfather Part II, Wade Boggs earns his nickname on the set of Cheers, and we finally finish that pack of 2003 Topps with Alfonso Soriano, Shawn Green, Al Leiter, and Sean Casey. Topics include: David Wells perfect game, 1998 New York Yankees, SNL Mandela Effect, Jimmy Fallon David Wells party, Beanie Baby day Yankee Stadium, Chuck Knoblauch throwing yips, Tim McClelland umpire, Don Larsen perfect game, Dock Ellis no-hitter, Dallas Braden perfect game, David Cone knuckleball, Rickey Henderson Hall of Fame, Wade Boggs Cheers, Steve Garvey Godfather, 2003 Topps baseball cards, baseball history podcast, Two Strike Noise 00:00 Open 01:06 Rickey & Rice on Letterman 05:26 Garvey in Godfather 07:18 Boggs on Cheers 10:10 Towel Toss Ejection 12:40 Wells Perfect Game Intro 15:48 Gout and Yankees Context 19:10 The Mystery Party Night 23:28 Hangover to Perfection 30:37 Perfect Game Tension 33:00 Knoblauch Saves It 34:23 Twins Stall Tactics 35:26 Ninth Inning Drama 37:31 Perfect Game Celebration 38:51 Aftermath And Trivia 45:06 SNL Mandela Effect 47:33 Wax Pack Heroes Returns 01:00:50 Final Cards Winner 01:04:11 Wrap Up And Plugs   Connect With Us YouTube: www.youtube.com/@twostrikenoise Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoise BlueSky: @twostrikenoise.bsky.social Email: twostrikenoise@gmail.com   Support a Great Cause: Don't let your common cards collect dust!

Has grading become the hobby? And which basketball company actually owns the future: Topps or Panini?PSA says it has a 10 million card backlog and is suspending several submission levels. At the same time, a Victor Wembanyama Black Prizm 1/1 sells for $5.11 million, a LeBron James Topps Chrome Superfractor Auto sells for $1.26 million, and the hobby's most famous missing redemption card finally resurfaces.This week the guys debate whether grading has become more important than collecting, whether Panini is really losing relevance, and what collectors are actually paying for when million-dollar cards change hands.Plus, Topps and Panini both launch new basketball products in the same week, leading to a bigger question: are collectors chasing cards, or chasing outcomes?In This EpisodePSA pauses multiple grading tiers10 million card backlog discussionTopps Signature Class BasketballPanini Signature Series BasketballBlind Ranking: Hobby AccomplishmentsWembanyama Black Prizm 1/1 sells for $5.11MLeBron Chrome Superfractor Auto sells for $1.26MThe Mantle redemption has finally been foundBiggest grading fee in Grand Slam historyJosh's Crazy Stat of the WeekFeatured Stories & LinksPSA Suspends Submission Levelshttps://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1606829914782841&id=100063675425060Victor Wembanyama Black Prizm 1/1 Sells for $5.11 Millionhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/sportscardsnonsense/permalink/1932782434373082/LeBron James Topps Chrome Superfractor Auto Sells for $1.26 Millionhttps://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1441067771395889The Mantle Redemption Has Been Foundhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/sportscardsnonsense/permalink/1934653164186009/Topps Signature Class Basketballhttps://www.topps.com/pages/topps-signature-class-basketballPanini Signature Series Basketballhttps://www.paniniamerica.net/2025-26-panini-signatures-series-basketball-trading-card-box-hobby.htmlBecause every card has a story.#talkingshoppodcast #SportsCards#CardCollecting#VictorWembanyama#LeBronJames#PSA#PaniniPrizm#ToppsChrome#SportsCardInvesting#BasketballCards

The mailbag delivers. Listener emails this week include a baseball honeymoon, a Jeopardy-funded wedding (not a typo), and a fan who shipped over APBA game materials and a stack of 1972 Topps cards. That last one matters by the end of the episode. In BP, Jeff and Mark work through the week's oddities: batters watching their own strikeout replays in real time, the phrase "circuit clout" making a comeback, Elmo showing up in the Phillies booth alongside John Kruk, Jazz Chisholm wearing Giancarlo Stanton's pants to break a slump, and a genuinely strange roster trivia note involving the Marlins, Cardinals, and Twins. The main segment is 1988. Specifically, what happens when a pitcher gets so locked in that the league starts to feel likeit's 1968 all over again. Orel Hershiser threw 59 consecutive scoreless innings that year — breaking Don Drysdale's record — and won the Cy Young while doing it. Jeff puts it in context against Bob Gibson's 1968, the last time people seriously asked whether pitchers had broken the sport. The episode closes with Wax Pack Heroes, using the 1972 Topps cards the listener sent in. 00:00 Cold Open and Welcome 00:18 On Location and Mariners Talk 01:31 Mailbag Honeymoon Baseball Stories 04:15 APBA Surprise and Wax Packs 07:19 BP Big Screens and Circuit Clouts 09:11 Elmo in the Broadcast Booth 10:52 Jazz Chisholm Wears Stantons Pants 13:22 Weird MLB Three Team Trivia 15:01 NCIS New Orleans Baseball Cameos 16:54 Year of the Pitcher Part Deux 44:35 Wax PackHeroes 01:07:10 Thanks Plugs Signoff Connect With Us YouTube: www.youtube.com/@twostrikenoise Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoise BlueSky: @twostrikenoise.bsky.social Email: twostrikenoise@gmail.com Support a Great Cause: Don't let your common cards collect dust!

Jeff and Mark return and open with BP topics including Bobby Witt Jr.'s inside-the-park homer and a minor-league inside-the-park home run created when a fielder slid on a ball and unknowingly plugged it under the turf. They discuss Cal Raleigh ending an 0-for-38 slump by showering in full uniform, then going on the IL, and debate complaints about constant in-stadium audio at Yankee Stadium, including claims Aaron Judge wants Madison Square Garden-style energy and even signals the production booth. In Tales from the Dugout, Mark explains “Eddie Sissons Syndrome” for exaggerated baseball biographies, while Jeff shares an 1883 carrier-pigeon score delivery system and the story of Clarence “Climax” Blethyn's dentures biting him during a slide.

https://teachhoops.com/ As a fixture in the Madison, Wisconsin, basketball community for nearly three decades, Coach Stephen Collins has seen the game evolve from leather balls and short shorts to the era of advanced analytics and digital coaching clinics. After a 27-year tenure at Madison Memorial, Coach Collins is shifting his focus toward digital mentorship and building the next generation of leaders. We sat down with the veteran instructor and coach to discuss the "muck and grind" of a long career, the overlap between the classroom and the court, and what's next on his whiteboard. Interviewer: Coach, 27 years at one program is a rarity in today's coaching climate. When you look back at that first season in Madison compared to your final whistle last spring, what is the most profound change you've noticed? Coach Collins: The speed—not just of the players, but of the information. When I started, we were trading physical VHS tapes and drawing plays on napkins. Now, players have access to every NBA highlight and breakdown on their phones before they even hit the locker room. But while the technology changed, the "Human Element" remained exactly the same. You still have to look a kid in the eye and make them believe they are capable of more than they thought. The 27 years taught me that players don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Interviewer: You've spent a significant portion of your career teaching Advanced Placement Statistics. How does a deep understanding of probability and data affect your late-game decision-making? Coach Collins: It's a double-edged sword. In the classroom, we talk about the Law of Large Numbers—the idea that as a sample size grows, the observed mean will get closer to the expected value. On the court, I know that a high-volume shooter is "due" for a make, or that our Effective Field Goal Percentage ($eFG%$) is higher when we touch the paint. But coaching is where the "Statistically Significant" meets the "Humanly Unpredictable." You can have a $95%$ confidence interval that a certain play will work, but if a teenager is having a bad day or loses focus for a split second, that $5%$ "error" happens. My background in stats helps me stay calm; it reminds me to focus on the Process rather than the outcome of a single possession. Interviewer: You've transitioned into a major role with platforms like TeachHoops.com, essentially coaching the coaches. What prompted the shift into the digital space? Coach Collins: It was about scale. At Memorial, I could impact 12 to 15 players a year. Through digital communities and podcasts, I can help a coach in Ireland or a youth director in San Francisco solve a problem in real-time. Coaching can be a very lonely profession—that "Alone in the Crowd" feeling is real. I wanted to build a "Digital Truth Room" where coaches could find the resources, sets like the Princeton or Shuffle Offense, and the community support they need to avoid burnout. Interviewer: We hear you're a man of many interests outside the gym—from high-end sports trading cards to planning trips to the Orlando theme parks. How do you "unplug" after a long season? Coach Collins: You have to find your "Magic" somewhere. For me, the focus required to analyze a Topps or Bowman release or the logistics of navigating a family trip to Disney provides a different kind of mental challenge. It's about balance. After 27 years of being "Coach Collins" 24/7, I've learned that being a good husband and father is the only "stat" that truly lasts.
