EPISODE 124 - Clark and Hyung welcome back Chris Begg, former pitcher for Team Canada in the Summer Olympics and the World Baseball Classic, to co-host this episode where they first discuss the cool video of Michael Rubin, Fanatics CEO, surprising a young female Devin Booker fan and card collector at a local card shop recently.
Then the guys dive into Hobby Headlines talking about the junk wax era, naming their favorite players they collected and going over who deserves more hobby love despite the supremely high print runs.
Continuing with the junk wax era theme, they play Overrated/Underrated next with Clark listing popular sports cards in that era. The list includes the Ken Griffey Jr. Upper Deck rookie, Don Mattingly Donruss rookie, and Barry Bonds Topps Traded Tiffany to name a few. Chris also shares a cool story about how Mariano Rivera learned to throw his deadly cutter.
Lastly, they finish the show off with the regular "Pick One" segment where each host names two cards or sets, and then debate which one they would rather invest in. The pairs chosen this week include: Anthony Volpe vs. Jasson Dominguez; 1987 Leaf Baseball vs 1987 O-Pee-Chee Baseball Sealed Wax; Barry Bonds 1986 Topps Traded Tiffany BGS 9.5 (pop: 513; $2000) vs. Mark McGwire 1985 Topps (USA Baseball Team) PSA 10 (pop: 306; $1900).
