The Card Diary by Hobby S. Thompson

Welcome to a new limited podcast series called The Card Diary by Hobby S. Thompson, where I invite you to join me on my cardboard journey as I try different ways to enjoy the trading card hobby as a jack of all trades and a master of none, in the style of Hunter S. Thompson. Along the way, I hope we all learn and grow together! Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hobbysthompson/support

    Ep. 96 - The Mid-Atlantic Sports Card Show with Promoter Ryan McCormick

    The Mid-Atlantic Sports Card Show is coming to the Silver Spring Civic Center on Saturday, November 23! As its show ambassador, I wanted to bring on the promoter of the show, Ryan McCormick and while I had a set of questions to go through, we ended up talking about his oddball collection and I think both of us were really happy to go down the rabbit holes we did. This was a live stream on YouTube and the chat was involved in the live. Thank you to everyone who joined and shared their thoughts, and thank you to the podcast community for listening! Only four episodes away from 100! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hobbysthompson/support

    Ep. 95 - Military Veterans in The Hobby

    Happy Veterans Day to all the incredible military service men and women who protect the United States of America! This is an opportunity to hear from military veterans in The Hobby and how their service helps shape their experience with sports cards. Here are their socials and where you can find them: Trent - on Instagram @trentl41 and @slabfalconsportscards and breaking with Jetbreakers on Facebook and Whatnot Dakota - on Instagram @dakotastorm_rips_cards and sets up as a dealer in card shows in the DMV and has his first ever card show as a promoter in March 2025 in Maryland LT - on Instagram  @livinwithlt  and has his own YouTube channel and live streams We talked about their active/past service in the military, whether they like or not like when people say "Thank you for your service," who they PC, how Trent yelled orders at Paul Skenes, how they should always support the Commander In Chief whoever it is, thoughts about Pat Tillman and Colin Kaepernick, what the flag means to them, and so much more! Thank you to all of them and also thank you to those of you who joined and contributed in the first ever live chat in the YouTube stream! It was so much fun! - Denny --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hobbysthompson/support

    Ep. 94 - Wemby Wemby Wemby with Ryan from GemRate

    In this podcast episode, Ryan from GemRate drops by to talk about the state of grading with Victor Wembanyama cards. He shares his knowledge of the data around Wemby's most graded cards, such as which cards of his have the highest (and lowest) gem rate, and then we talk about the now-infamous 2023-24 Panini Crown Royale Kaboom insert set and how there is literally just one Gem Mint PSA 10 (coincidentally, of Victor Wembanyama) out of the hundreds of the graded cards currently out there in the card market across the entire player checklist. If you are into card grading and into Wemby cards, this is one podcast episode you WON'T want to miss! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hobbysthompson/support

    Ep. 93 - Fanatics Collect Orlando Round Table Discussion

    With Fanatics Collect Orlando now officially cancelled/postponed (no set date as of this recording on October 16, 2024), I brought on three guests to talk about the impact of this cancellation. This was not a bashing of Fanatics, but it was also a very real, but also civil, discussion about the event cancellation. My three guests were: 1. Whiz (@mf_whiz) - a dealer who was planning to set up and had bought a table for the show 2. Cam (@bigc7_cards) - a hobbyist from Orlando who shared what it's like boots on the ground in that area 3. Mike (@somdbreaks) - a hobbyist who was going to be traveling from out of town with a non refundable ticket Here is the official statement from Fanatics Collect Orlando: https://www.fanaticsevents.com/fanaticscollectorlando Here is the link to the Sports Collectors Daily article about Fanatics cancelling the Pittsburgh Show: https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com/2024-fanatics-pittsburgh-show/#:~:text=Fanatics%20has%20canceled%20plans%20for,company's%20new%20Fanatics%20Events%20division.

    Ep. 92 - Take Two with Prizm Gawd

    Back in July of 2023, I tried to record a podcast episode with Raphael (Prizm Gawd), and we just could not make it work out, but it was just not meant to be. One plus year later, I feel like I am a better podcaster and have a bigger platform in The Hobby. Raphael shares who he was before he became Prizm Gawd and also his post show thoughts after Culture Collision V.

    Ep. 90 - East Coast National vs. Culture Collision

    This 90th episode of the The Card Diary compares/contrasts the two varying styles of two different card shows - East Coast National and Culture Collision. They were held on different dates and areas of the country, but I talk about how one was more traditional and there was more baseball (and vintage baseball), while the other felt more modern and possibly going in the trend in which card shows are headed. I also talk about Fanatics Fest, as that was held on the same weekend as the East Coast National. Is this a false choice? Does it have to be either/or? Can it be both? Enjoy this solo podcast episode and let me know what you think! #thehobby #fanatics #fanaticsfest #eastcoastnational #culturecollision #podcast #hobbypodcast #cardshows #baseballcard #sportscard --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hobbysthompson/support
