More Fanatics Fest Events Good for the Hobby?; Other Product Release News from Topps Industry Conference; Playing Another Fun Round of Quiz Show!
EPISODE 210 - Clark and John open the show by talking about some MLB baseball players having a photo of their baseball card from 2024 Topps Series 1 on their bat knob. Topps announced shortly after that those bat knobs would be used in a 1/1 autograph card. They discuss if it's cool, too gimmicky or both.
Then for Hobby Headlines, the guys go into Part 2 of the news announced recently from this year's Topps Industry Conference including the new Fanatics Fest events taking place in Pittsburgh and Orlando.
They also give their takes on some product release announcements including the 1955 Bowman Anime case hits as part of their 2024 Bowman set, Topps Composite Football 2023, and Topps Transcendent being reconfigured into a smaller product with more variety.
Then Clark tests John in a Hobby Quiz Show to see if he could name the top answers on the board – Familiy Feud style.
Lastly, Clark and John wrap up the show with their weekly segment "Pick 1" where the hosts put up two cards and then debate which they'd rather invest in.

Will the Return of Topps Chrome Basketball Have Same Prestige with Unlicensed Product?; Other Product Release News from 2024 Topps Industry Conference
EPISODE 209 - Clark and John get right into the Friday episode by starting the discussion on all the announcements from the recent 2024 Topps Industry Conference.
First, they give their thoughts on the return of Topps Chrome Basketball this summer, which will feature unlicensed cards (ie. no team logos) but it will contain autographs of superstar players like Victor Wembanyama, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and Stephen Curry to name a few.
Will the unlicensed product still have the same wide appeal simply because it's released by Topps or will it be undervalued similar to other unlicensed sets like Panini Baseball or Leaf autograph cards?
They also touch upon where the MLB Debut Patch cards will be for the top rookies who made their debut this year including Jackson Chourio and Jackson Holliday.
