Dan Kasper dives back into the sports card hobby with Tyler from Slab Factory for another Inside the Hobby conversation on The Man Cave Podcast.

They break down everything collectors are talking about right now—from card grading and PSA price increases to why the markets for Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Shohei Ohtani cards are suddenly exploding. Tyler explains how grading really works, what collectors should know before sending cards in, and why a perfect PSA 10 can dramatically increase a card’s value.

Plus, the guys talk about the upcoming baseball season, World Baseball Classic excitement, March Madness brackets, and how the hobby has evolved since the COVID boom.
