Episode Summary: Diving into Global Hobby Trends and Community Show GrowthIn this episode, we explore the evolving landscape of the trading card hobby, from the burgeoning scene in Scotland to the grassroots growth of local card shows in the American Midwest.

Season 4 was filled with some amazing moments. Hits and misses. Good takes and laughably bad ones. When you put out a show every single week, you're bound to win some, and lose some. That's how things have gone during the 4 year run for Card Talk. Three friends sitting around, making fun of each others favorite teams and talking sports cards. HAVING FUN!Sometimes we forget what collecting trading cards is supposed to be all about. It's a hobby. Hobbies are meant to be a fun escape from the real world. Despite the fact that there are values attached to the cards, at the end of the day it's the people in the hobby and their stories that make it great. We were fortunate enough to carve out a segment in this hobby for 4 years who enjoyed watching and listening to us every single Wednesday. You submitted plays of the week, asked questions, attended our in-person events, trade nights, the National, Dallas Card Shows, London Card Shows... it was truly an honor to be able to entertain you and keep you updated on all the hobby news.Sadly, it appears that at least for now, this will be the final episode of Card Talk. The entire crew here will miss all of the interactions and engagements, the laughs and jokes. It's been one hell of a run. We won't say goodbye.... it's more of a see you later!! From our entire crew, THANK YOU for making this show so much fun to record. Now please enjoy our season 4 recap!!!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ryan doesn't take many L's on Card Talk... so today is about to be a bit different. It's been 3 weeks since we last recorded an episode. Since then, the Jets are in the midst of a complete free fall, Penn State lost to Michigan, and the Patriots have become a laughingstock.. but the 3rd Ohio State loss in a row to Michigan, in a game that Ryan claims is the "most important game of the year... even more so than a possible National Championship game... the one game he wants to win above all else!"You hate to see these things. I hate to see these things. But Lou... he LOVES to see it and you can be sure he was ready for this week's "What's on your mind" segment. In hobby news, Topps Chrome Update Debut Patches are absolutely on fire, highlighting a very good run of recent promotions for Topps that included Wemby's Bowman U Green "1st card I ever signed" inscription, the TacoFractors, a Babe Ruth / Ohtani dual auto card and the MVP Buyback program that sent collectors to their LCS for a little discounted holiday shopping!Speaking of Wemby, his 1st ever game worn jersey (from the second half - he wore 2 that night) sold at auction for an eye popping $762,000, the most money ever paid for a rookie jersey. Should Panini or Fanatics have bought it and cut it up, creating the ultimate chase? In other NBA news, LeBron's longevity is other worldly... the Orlando Magic are HOT... and Anthony Edwards is very cool. Tune in for all of that, some Instagram Q&A and Play of the Week is back with SIX slides, including one follower that made a play on a Hall of Fame wide receiver!Time Stamps: :54 - What's on your mind?

The Jets beat the undefeated Eagles. OSU and Penn State dominated ahead of their big matchup this weekend. The studio was absolutely BUZZING this week, with Tyler and Lou recording together in person! There's plenty going on in the hobby! Topps announced the details of their MLB debut patches... and their MLB first stitch patches. The boys chime in with their thoughts. Also, Tyler was in the mix as a Pokemon skate deck was revealed in office, Upper Deck is set to release a 2024 golf set, Leaf released "the book of love", a booklet dual Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift cut auto /11, Lexi Thompson had a good weekend and Anna Leigh Waters cards remain hot (according to Jay).Finally... Play of the Week is BACK with a very strong segment and we do some light Q&A. Tune in for all of that PLUS details of a fun contest to win some Upper Deck Marvel boxes!On a more somber note, a friend of the pod local to Ryan's shop, Jack Sawyer got some rather unfortunate medical news this week that Ryan explains a bit more. if you'd like to do something amazing and send him some wax to rip, details can be found here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CyULnJYORwx/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==&https://www.instagram.com/p/CyWf9-juZca/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==1:13 - What's on your mind?

It was another great week of NFL action, but the injuries are piling up. Most notably in the hobby (and fantasy) Justin Jefferson heads to IR with hamstring issues as well as standout rookies Anthony RIchardson (shoulder) and running back De'Von Achane (knee). However, there are some good looking rookies who are still healthy and might carry this class in the hobby including Puka Nacua and CJ Stroud. Can anybody take down the 49ers?The Jets won a game while Mac Jones and the Patriots continue to stink. Lou's Astros are battling in the playoffs... Ryan is watching baseball games (even if he can't remember who he watched)... The NHL is back... Conor Bedard is set to play his first game, have you made any plays yet? CBJ and the Rangers are longshots to raise the Stanley Cup, but the Devils are one of the favorites. The NBA is also back, Lou couldn't care less but Tyler is pumped for Chet and Wemby... and he also wants to remind everybody that LeBron James is still in the league. Topps had a cool Bob Ross collab "the Joy of Baseball" that sold out in seconds. Also in Topps news, TacoFractors now have a stated purpose. Was it worth the hype? Is Haaland headed to Madrid? Max continues to dominate F1.Finally, OSU vs Penn State is getting closer and it's pretty much all Tyler and Ryan are thinking about... let's hear some final score predictions in the comments!Tune in for all of that PLUS one of Ryan's most anticipated Latest Launches in quite some time!Time Stamps: :53 - What's on your mind?

The boys are back and we heard your comments on last week's show... it's time to get back to CARD TALK on Card Talk!The Jets looked good on Sunday Night football but (with the help of the refs) sadly couldn't pull off the upset.. but is Zach Wilson starting to figure things out?Also, CJ Stroud and Anthony Richardson are GOOD... and Panini won the first of what will likely be many legal battles against the NFLPA, maintaining the rights (for now) to produce NFL licensed cards for the 2023 season. Lou thinks Caleb Williams is BY FAR the best quarterback in this years college class, Pokemon released a collab with the Van Gogh Museum and things got NUTTY, Topps announced a duplicate Superfractor bounty... but is it all a marketing ploy?

Zach Wilson has broken Lou and Tyler... and Ryan has never smiled wider!The New York Jets dropped their 15th!! straight game to the Patriots on Sunday on a rainy day in the swamps of the Meadowlands... while the Miami Dolphins put up 70 points against the Broncos. I'm sure you can imagine what was about to happen in the studio in this beep-fest of an episode. in bigger news, Taylor Swift showed up at Arrowhead Stadium to cheer on the Chiefs and her new (possible) boyfriend Travis Kelce while sitting with his mom. Interesting. This should be a fun one to see play out, but does it have any effect on the collectibles market? Maybeeeee. Penn State and Ohio State both won again this week, setting up a date with Card Talk destiny in late October. You thought Jets vs Pats got ugly? Just wait until either Tyler or Ryan have to hold THAT L. Bronny James missed practice... when will we see him back on the court?

The NFL had another action packed weekend with some surprising 2-0 teams, even more surprising 0-2 teams and Puka MANIA taking over the world! You can purchase graded Jerry Rice rookie cards for the same price as Puka Donruss elite autos. What gives?!The NFL quarterback market is starting to become clear... who's hot and who's not? College football cards are also heating up as 2023 Bownan Chrome University features a fantastic checklist! There were 3 of the same Superfractors pulled in 2 different breaks this week. How does that happen? Imagine a box with 2 guaranteed autos yielding 60 of them? You might get that lucky, with this week's news about Bowman Chrome hot boxes. Hershey Haaland signed a card with the inscription, "The LeBron James of Soccer"... interesting! Also, Tyler and Lou's Jets got smoked by the Cowboys ... but they are set to return home to face off against Ryan's* Patriots this week.

If you tune In to Card Talk for hobby talk, I have some unfortunate news for you... the boys weren't in the mood to talk much about cards this week. After all the hype and build up, Aaron Rodgers blew his achilles after just 4 plays, his season is done.. and his career is more likely over than not over. The censor beep was on overload... so if you like watching raw emotion, this is the week for you. No Play of the Week... some light Q&A.... but mostly, just pure, unadulterated pain.

The NFL is officially back this week. Fire. Us. Up!The boys are back in studio to give their predictions of how it's all gonna shake out over these next 6 months. Who's gonna win the Super Bowl? Who's gonna be the rookies of the year? What about MVP? Will Tyler pick Ryan Tannehill again? You just never know!Also, college football week 1 was ELECTRIC with Colorado and Coach Prime stealing the headlines with a huge win over TCU... but where are the Colorado cards?! On the other side of it, Clemson laid an egg. Penn State MIGHT have a REAL QB! (Ohio State might not...) It's overreaction Tuesday, so you know the takes were flying!THE US Open is in full swing! Carlos Alcaraz is unreal. Jasson Dominguez hit his first two homers against Lou's Astros, and the fan who caught the first one only received two signed baseballs for it... did they get smoked? Lorcana is definitely growing their base of people who are playing the actual game.... and finally we do a little q&a and give our thoughts on this CardPorn situation.Tune in for all of that plus another amazing Play of the Week segment!Time Stamps: :51 - What's on your mind?

The NFL is back and the quarterback market is (as always) hot. But what lessons can be learned in the hobby by the 49ers giving up on Trey Lance and shipping him to Dallas for a 4th round pick? Last year, a Trey Lance Flawless Shield sold for $132,000! Has the time come to stop going all-in on rookie QBs? Did that time come long ago, and people still haven't learned?To that point, Penn State legend Sean Clifford is more likely than not to be a first ballot hall of famer, so you should probably go purchase all of his cards (disclaimer: do not do that).Also this week... Topps announced this week that anybody who owns a Wemby Green auto /99 is invited to come to San Antonio and take part in their giveaway of his "first card I ever singed" card, picking up the tab for airfare and hotels. Is this the first of many cards that have utility? Brian Gray is out as Leaf CEO, the boys discuss who the new CEO is and what lies ahead for the brand.

Thanks a lot, NFLPA!We were all set to bless our Card Talk audience with a well planned hour of college football chatter. And we KNOW how much our audience loves a good full hour of Penn State vs Ohio State vs Georgia!But no.. not this time. You had to go and ruin it. You just HAD TO go and pull the license from Panini, causing us to do a 180 at the last second and dive in to all the "what if's" and potential fallout of such a decision. What's next for Panini? What's next for Fanatics? Most importantly, what does it all mean for US, the collectors? Right now, there are more questions than answers, but the boys are back in studio to do they best they can to address this monumental moment in the hobby. But have no fear... even with this minor distraction, and even with Tyler in the Swiss Alps, and even with Lou getting engaged this week... there is STILL a decent amount of college football talk! We're also talking an MJ Flu Game wristband sale and a crack & smack PSA 5 that became a BGS 10 (huh?!).

The NFL Preseason is fully underway, with the Jets destroying Bryce Young and the Panthers 27-0 on Saturday. No chance Lou and Tyler are ready to overreact to such a scenario. Absolutely no chance. However, all the good feels for Lou and Jay did not carry over in the way of luck in their first NT case break, as they each picked up a couple of random teams and hit exactly 0 cards. Tough lesson.With that said, the quarterback market remains hot.. Brock Purdy's NT shield reportedly sold privately for 100k+, but even guys like Desmond Ridder, Malik Cunningham, Sam Howell and Malik Willis are seeing some large sales on eBay lately. Are any of those guys a buy? Also, is it EVER worth it to buy a running backs cards early in their career?Speaking of running backs, the Pats picked up Zeke Elliot and the Jets signed some guy named Dalvin Cook (no big deal). Is Ryan ready to concede the AFC East to HIS GUY Garrett Wilson and the Jets? That answer might surprise you... but it might not be as shocking as the flowers he throws his most hated team on the planet - the Michigan Wolverines - in this episode!Tune in for all of that PLUS Play of the Week is BACK!Time Stamps: :47 - What's on your mind?

The NBA crowned a new champion on Monday night as the Nuggets predictably dropped the Heat, making light work of them in 5 games. Even still, is Nikola Jokic one of the most under-appreciated players in the hobby?Also, we have entered a bit of a slow period in sports, or as Lou would call it "baseball time"... but before we all know it, the National will arrive and then NFL training camp will be back! There were some huge pulls by  @dcsports8866   @mojobreak  & Bleacher Hits this week, Messi is headed to MLS to play for Miami AND Upper Deck is taking Disney Lorcana (Ravensburger) to court ahead of their big upcoming release.

This will likely go down as the weirdest and most random 20 minutes to start a show that we've ever had in our 147 studio recordings, with all topics in play. We're talking:- Aliens- LIV Golf (with breaking news mid-recording)- Pickleball paddles- Apple Vision ProYou know... all the topics that the most hardcore card collectors are discussing! But after the dust settled, it was actually quite a week in the hobby, so the boys found some time to get in to that as well. The Heat are surprisingly making a series of things with the Nuggets. Las Vegas is an elite home for the Stanley Cup Finals, as the first two games out there have been an electric factory. The $250k Druw Jones Superfractor Bounty was accepted by a grandfather in (of course) Ohio. Wemby autos out of Bowman Chrome U are redemptions... so how do they determine who gets the "first card I ever signed" inscription?
