There is no better place for in-depth quality sports card content than Cardboard Chronicles. This is one of the only podcasts that lets the great collectors of the hobby tell their stories. I learn a lot from these conversations and am inspired to keep patiently building my collection. Josh is a huge asset to the hobby and I’m grateful that he shares his knowledge through this podcast.
