Welcome back to the Modern Marvels Podcast! In this episode, Cameron and Mike tackle two massive conversations shifting the trading card hobby today. First, we break down the mind-blowing multi-million dollar grail sales of Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan. We use these historic moments to answer a question hitting our inboxes daily: Should you buy into the non-sport card boom - One Piece, Disney, Star Wars? Mike breaks down the "Never-Ending News Cycle" of live sports vs. the predictable nature of entertainment, and why Pokemon remains the ultimate unreplicable unicorn.Next, we dive into the diamond. Mike gets his flowers for the massive Kevin McGonigle call and we break down the definitive playbook on how to handle ultra-hyped, premium-priced rookies like Konnor Griffin. Are you setting yourself up for a loss by chasing the peak, or should you buy yourself time? We also look at Munetaka Murakami, Moises Ballesteros, Sal Stewart, and drop a deep-sleeper Single-A name to watch.
