    Episode 39: Raising Kane

    Episode 39: Raising Kane

    This week I ask why we seemingly overlook Steph Curry in the hobby.  And I talk about the historic stretch that Ronald Acuna Jr is on and why I'm buying.  In the main segment I tell the story of meeting WWE Hall of Famer Kane, and how a gift from a friend has given me direction in collecting wrestling cards.  Enjoy!

    Episode 38: Mercedes Boy

    Episode 38: Mercedes Boy

    This week I talk about WrestleMania, air my grievances with Peacock and explain the misery of being a Pirates fan.  In the main segment I quoye Henry David Thoreau and talk about my single greatest card selling failure to date.  When I do, you'll understand why week's episode shares a title with a 1987 pop song by Pebbles.  Enjoy.

    This week I shout out Alderson Broaddus University in Philippi, West Virginia; examine the curious case of Kike Hernandez's jersey and explain why I might not be following you on Instagram.  In the main segment I turn the mail bag concept around and pose questions to you, the audience.  Enjoy!

    Episode 36: This Episode is PSA Ready!

    This week I talk about the underwhelming experience of ripping 2021 Topps Heritage, make fun of guys who give advice while butchering a player's name and beg eBay sellers to stop putting ridiculous descriptions in their listings - like "PSA Ready."  In the main segment I talk about a couple of specific MLB prospects, giving ny thoughts but reminding you to do your own research.  One great tool for that is the FanGraphs Top 100 Prospects list, which you can find here: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2021-top-100-prospects/

    Episode 35: Risk Aversion

    This week I share the story of watching hoops with a buddy, 2021-style; talk about Mookie getting paid and fanboy over a recent Twitter follower.  In the main segment I talk about why I'll never put a down payment on a house with money from cards.  Enjoy!

Perfect podcast for COLLECTORS!

What I love is Tim’s focus on collecting, not investing. I grew up in the same state, have similar collecting tendencies and am about the same age. His show is a breath of fresh air in a hobby inundated with flippers and investors.

An authentic take on the Hobby

I’ve been loving Mountain State Cardboard. Tim offers an authentic take on the hobby and let’s you know that under all these crazy market conditions it’s still cool to be a collector first.
