Love the show, Joey Lawrence was in Blossom

I’ve learned a ton about the hobby listening to new and old episodes. These guys are just great to listen to, insightful, funny, transparent too. From the jump, Mike’s no-holds-barred honesty was apparent. And Jesse’s a great example on how to not take things personally. Thanks big guy 💯
The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because of the audio issues. Seems like every episode will have a clip that’s either repeated, or cut out, and I’m not sure why. Maybe Spotify has a different file?
**update: I think it’s just my phone messing up the file. I’ve rewound eps to find that the audio issue was no longer there. Upgraded to five stars. And added a note about Joey Lawrence being in Blossom since the guys were struggling in an ep from like 2021 to remember what he was in besides Brotherly Love.

Tension between hosts at all-time high

I have been a listener of this show since the first episode and have thoroughly enjoyed it as an entertaining weekly update on what is going on in the world of sports cards and more. HOWEVER, in the past few months the tension between hosts Mike and Jesse seems to be at an all-time high. They have always bickered (Mike usually being grumpy and making fun of Jessie), but what was once mostly friendly seems to have taken the turn of exhaustion and personal limits being reached. I know there have been big life changes (Mike having a child), and the uncertainty of a contract extension with Spotify, that may be contributing to this increased tension. What was once entertaining banter has become unenjoyable to listen to and negatively impacts the quality of the show. My hope is that uncertainties and attitudes will improve in the near future, and Mike and Jesse can leave outside distractions at the door and continue focusing on the quality and execution of the podcast. I wish y’all nothing but the best! - Miles
