Season 4 Recap... The End of an Era?! | Card Talk

Season 4 was filled with some amazing moments. Hits and misses. Good takes and laughably bad ones. When you put out a show every single week, you're bound to win some, and lose some. That's how things have gone during the 4 year run for Card Talk. Three friends sitting around, making fun of each others favorite teams and talking sports cards. HAVING FUN!Sometimes we forget what collecting trading cards is supposed to be all about. It's a hobby. Hobbies are meant to be a fun escape from the real world. Despite the fact that there are values attached to the cards, at the end of the day it's the people in the hobby and their stories that make it great. We were fortunate enough to carve out a segment in this hobby for 4 years who enjoyed watching and listening to us every single Wednesday. You submitted plays of the week, asked questions, attended our in-person events, trade nights, the National, Dallas Card Shows, London Card Shows... it was truly an honor to be able to entertain you and keep you updated on all the hobby news.Sadly, it appears that at least for now, this will be the final episode of Card Talk. The entire crew here will miss all of the interactions and engagements, the laughs and jokes. It's been one hell of a run. We won't say goodbye.... it's more of a see you later!! From our entire crew, THANK YOU for making this show so much fun to record. Now please enjoy our season 4 recap!!!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

3 Straight W's for Michigan over OSU & Wemby Jersey RECORD SALE! | Card Talk

Ryan doesn't take many L's on Card Talk... so today is about to be a bit different. It's been 3 weeks since we last recorded an episode. Since then, the Jets are in the midst of a complete free fall, Penn State lost to Michigan, and the Patriots have become a laughingstock.. but the 3rd Ohio State loss in a row to Michigan, in a game that Ryan claims is the "most important game of the year... even more so than a possible National Championship game... the one game he wants to win above all else!"You hate to see these things. I hate to see these things. But Lou... he LOVES to see it and you can be sure he was ready for this week's "What's on your mind" segment. In hobby news, Topps Chrome Update Debut Patches are absolutely on fire, highlighting a very good run of recent promotions for Topps that included Wemby's Bowman U Green "1st card I ever signed" inscription, the TacoFractors, a Babe Ruth / Ohtani dual auto card and the MVP Buyback program that sent collectors to their LCS for a little discounted holiday shopping!Speaking of Wemby, his 1st ever game worn jersey (from the second half - he wore 2 that night) sold at auction for an eye popping $762,000, the most money ever paid for a rookie jersey. Should Panini or Fanatics have bought it and cut it up, creating the ultimate chase? In other NBA news, LeBron's longevity is other worldly... the Orlando Magic are HOT... and Anthony Edwards is very cool. Tune in for all of that, some Instagram Q&A and Play of the Week is back with SIX slides, including one follower that made a play on a Hall of Fame wide receiver!Time Stamps: :54 - What's on your mind?
