All right, guys, bootleg open here. We got a Jesse texted us late, 15 minutes late.

Today's the only day actually have stuff to do after the pod. So I thought, hey, we'll just start it solo without him.

He'll be here for the majority of the show. He's going to come walking in.

Honestly, as soon as I started doing this, I thought 50-50 shot, he's going to come in and be very upset.

We started without him.

So it could be an awkward episode or he'll just take it in stride.

I also thought he was dying yesterday on his live stream.

Sound like he had COVID or something crazy.

So I didn't think he was going to come in at all today, but he is. Anyways, I wanted to

touch on one subject I actually think is fairly interesting right now, and it's not something I

believed in a whole lot until I actually started digging in. I've been doing a lot of YouTube content

consumption, which is a mistake. You get down these stupid rabbit holes of card content, and I've

been joining Professor Sports Cards. Of course, we do our couple of YouTube shows. And one thing that, like, guys continue to bring up, and I'm actually starting to think there's something, which this has been a truth forever. Hey, if a product releases June 1st, sell everything immediately. And if you want to buy it back, just let things settle.

You know, like Topps Finest baseball came out a couple months ago. Hey, you're going to have some vet autos. They're going to sell really, really high. The star rookie autos will come out and they'll sell really, really high. But it's like regardless of what the player does. And I pull two good examples. Cam Smith and Pete Coral Armstrong and Matt Shaw.

Three guys who have played pretty well this year.

Cam Smith had been playing really well. Matt Shaw's pricing has been excellent. Pete Crow as well. He's cooled off a little bit. But at the time of Topps finest, those guys were all very, very hot. Young guys, prospects, rookies, kind of a little bit of each. And it is interesting. It's the

same across the board with all these new releases. As soon as these things come out, almost across

the board, you just sell them. There are a couple different examples, two real main examples.

If you hit Chrome draft guys or prospect guys that are dirt cheap there's never any reason to sell a two

dollar prospect auto it's not going to go down any further and what's the point in making two bucks

hold it see if the guy pops like a Peyton toly or a Jonah's song or even you know judge was years removed

before he finally popped so throw that out of there entirely and then unbelievable like super short print legend type
