  • Host and Setting: The episode of Card Talk was hosted by Tyler Schmidt and recorded shortly after a blizzard in New York City.

  • Guest: Gregory Cumins of Who Knew?

  • Discussion covered non-sport collectibles, Gregory Cumins' upcoming published book, and the non-sport ecosystem.

  • He also brought items for a "show and tell" segment, including a Black Goliath Marvel superhero comic, a Monopoly silver coin, and a non-sports card called "Alternative Investments" from Keepsake Editions.

  • Gregory is interested in the "why" behind non-sports collectibles, not just the value, and hopes his book will help bring the fragmented non-sports collecting community together.

  • Guest: Paulo (special one cards)

  • Known as "special one cards," Paulo is considered one of the more knowledgeable individuals on proper football ("footy"), covering the game, current events, prospects, and the collecting side.

  • The discussion included deep footy talk in anticipation of the World Cup.

  • Topics covered included the English Premier League title race, players like Yacaré and Matías Fernandez, the upcoming Prism World Cup product, and the collecting of footy cards.

  • Paulo suggested that collectors should keep an eye on Yacaré's cards, particularly the Select product and the rare "peacocks" parallels.
