205 - Drops This Week, First Mint Negativity, How Top Shot Can Save Itself, Phil's Celebrity Part 2

If you want the juicy NFT bits, skip to the 1:15 mark, because we spend the first 75minutes getting updates on Phil's Celebrity Drama and his Hockey Coaching Antics (and Playoffs!) Following that, we dive into TFM's role in the influencer ecosystem, wether we are TOO negative at times (or not enough), and how these NFT projects could possible hope to win Phil's affection and attention in the future. We then dovetail into business ideas for growing the NFT Sports market, which includes meetings fans where they are - and finish with quick hits on Pranksy, Sorare, Dapper Executives, F1 rumors, and a Hot Take of The Week for the ages. Also, move fast because there is a POAP code in the first 10 minutes of this one!
