Bobby and Tjay tackle every MLB team and build a new 30 card collection from scratch consisting of one card from a player on every team.  Tjay curses countless players just like he did to Oneil Cruz last year, and we hit the Shohei drama.  Tune in now for our World Series picks just in time for the real Opening Day!
Oh no, PSA has acquired their biggest competitor.... what do we think about it?  Why do we grade?  And Tjay comes back from his paternity leave to provide his thoughts on Topps Series 1.  The most iconic Topps Triple Threads card ever made, and more!
Philly makes his second appearance on the Eephus to discuss Topps Series 1 and the Hall of Fame.  Strangely, some of the topics are Andrew McCutchen, Bob Nutting (Bobby hates him, count how many times he says it), Mike Tomlin, AJ Burnett, and more!  It wasn't getting the "E" stamp until Pirates ownership came up.
Bobby and Tjay pick up where they left off and talk about what they did all offseason.  Lots of talk about their collecting goals for 2024, and of course, a Series 1 Preview.Spoiler Alert: Bobby Witt Jr will not be the Yankees shortstop in 3 Years.Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/7uWbctyudP
If you don't wanna hear the dudes talk about budgeting and getting stuck in the perpetual cycle of consuming cards and spending tons of money, this might be the episode to skip.  But alas, we tackle the hard topic and caveat that budgeting your card spending is highly individualized to you and it's all relative.  We encourage you to give it a list, there's plenty of other good stuff too!  A special guest that is a familiar voice arrives midway through the episode to give his take.
In the season finale that is powered by Jameson and other whiskeys on a late west coast Friday night, Tool Time Co-Host Philly joins Bobby and TJ to tell us about some cool retro boxes to rip in the offseason.  The gang hands out our first ever Eephus Awards in 10 separate categories that feature some of the best and worst things from our beloved hobby in 2023.  We leave you with some Holiday greetings and give away a Junior Caminero Sapphire 1st Bowman.  This was a ton of fun to record, Are you ready for it?
Bobby and TJ chop it up for the next to last episode of the season.  We discuss whether or not Corey Seager is a postseason legend, recent releases, and hit the mailbag.  One more episode this year fellas!
Bobby and TJ get after if following a month off.  We talk about all the big submissions we got back from PSA, the 2023 MLB Postseason, and our thoughts on the drop of Topps Update.  It's a fun one as we talk about the big Tacofractor reveal, and how to look like the biggest clown at the airport while traveling.Prerequisites: Re-watch Varsity BluesJOIN THE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/FeseU33qR
The guys talk about TJ's experience with 2023 Bowman Chrome so far, Planetary Pursuit of Uranus Controversy, and the dry and boring 2023 Topps Update Checklist.  We answer a couple of mailbag questions from Philly, including how we would spend $5k on one card if given the chance.  As always, we have fun and hit tons of other topics like the failed release of Topps Logofractor, some cool product releases for buying singles like Panini Immaculate and Leaf Trinity, and what we think of Topps Sapphire and it's enormous 660 card checklist.Discord Link: https://discord.gg/9JhmxCyrWInstagram Link: https://www.instagram.com/theeephuspod/
You never walk away from the table when you're on a heater!  Bobby and Tjay talk about box rips, future releases over the next couple of months, and answer some mailbag questions.  
Bobby and Tjay throw it back and re-visit where things stand on Julio Rodriguez, Bobby Witt Jr, and the rest of the 2022 Rookie Class.  Are these guys that we were chasing all still relevant?  What cards stood the test of a years time?  We try to keep this National Treasure of a Podcast clean... thankfully, we are unlicensed by anyone so there are no consequences for failing.DISCORD: https://discord.gg/9JhmxCyrW

Bobby and TJ discuss how their collections are evolving and their future goals.  We shoot the bull for a full hour of mailbag questions from the Discord with no real agenda, and it's a ton of fun.  Meanwhile in the background, Fanatics attacks breakers and local card shops with a hatchet.  What does their crackdown on breaking mean?  (Oh no, they just put down a hatchet and fired up a chainsaw).  This was our personal favorite episode to record so far - enjoy!For the Love of God, Please Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/UpU3JT8NV
