In this episode, Jesse kicks things off with a live opening of a Pokémon repack—and absolutely crushes it! From there, he reflects on the current summer lull in non-sport product releases and whether that’s a good or bad thing for collectors. He also dives into the upcoming Rolling Stone card set, analyzing whether it has hit potential or if it might be another swing-and-miss.

Next, Jesse breaks down the surprising attempted comeback of Pogs, exploring how this 90s favorite is borrowing from modern trading card mechanics to create more collectible, chase-based appeal.

Then it’s on to a refreshing collector-to-collector conversation with Lucas Mast, a passionate hobbyist who represents the everyday non-sport card fan. Together, they discuss:

-The charm and simplicity of junk wax era sets

-Why rarer movie cards like Big and Twister still hold appeal

-Thoughts on celebrity autograph products like Pop Century

-How values rise and fall and when to break over buying singles

-Plus: A lively Mailbag segment, including a debate over renaming “non-sport” cards

From rips to real talk, this episode celebrates the everyday collector and the weird, wonderful world of non-sports.
