Hi all, just a little update that this podcast still has a pulse with a new block of guests on the horizon. Bulked-up with a story of the hobby series I'd love to have made, probably a couple of years too late now with the cat firmly out of the bag with the big pre-modern rookie items from around Europe.

2021/08/03

With ACE Grading about to try and shake-up the UK grading scene with what will initially be a Pokémon only grading service, I question whether it's time for single sport grading companies, in this case a soccer only grading & authentication company.

Who better to hear from about all things card design than the former Creative Director at Panini America. Brandon was manning the creative fort at the time when Prizm was born, when soccer was first introduced to the roster and gloriously too when the KABOOM was first dreamt-up. Hear about creative licence (and creative constipation!) from the man who has been there, done it, and designed the t-shirt.

A question which is cropping-up more and more now. "What will soccer's PMG be?" I discuss just why I believe this feels a bit like trying to find the new Messi. (PMG = precious metal gems, the iconic red and green parallels from the 1997-98 Fleer Skybox Metal Universe basketball release)

PJ, or @2026wcinvestor as he may be better known dropped by to chat about panini's first World Cup set, Mexico 70. On the 5th anniversary of Johan Cruyff's passing it felt apt that PJ also got a platform to express just why he thinks the Dutchman could actually be the GOAT of GOATs. We then finish on the always topical debate about today's grading options.

Justin of AFCBCards is the first person who comes to mind when I think team collector. The specific dynamics of supporting/collecting a 'smaller' team like Bournemouth and how that throws up various opportunities and challenges along the way. A really interesting and approachable figure in the hobby whose story I wanted to tap into.
