10% solid advice, 90% promoting own tools and resources. If you’re looking to sports cards as a means of primary income / business, then there is some useful content and tools. If, like me, sports cards collecting is purely a hobby, then most of the content is irrelevant. There’s nothing wrong with ripping wax for fun. There’s nothing wrong with buying only singles. However, listen to one episode and you’ll think you’re committing a crime by ripping wax along with being financially irresponsible. I love ripping wax and do so because I have made sound financial moves throughout my life. It’s a fun experience to enjoy with my son. Much cheaper than Disney. Better content out there if you’re looking to just enjoy the hobby.

Absolutely terrible listen which is a shame because I thought I was going to like it. Unfortunately, he plugs his website every 2 minutes and I had to turn it off.

Some of it is decent information, but 40-50% of each episode is just them pitching their website or other stuff they sell. Very disappointing

These guys fell off the card pod map. Just listened after a. Couple months and he’s pushing mystery packs over whatnot. How do you two fit through door jams with your monster heads(egos) Wow! You saw a seller on eBay and thought this guy must be a member cause he’s selling tiger woods and tom Brady Thanks for entertaining me for a couple years but YOU LOST YOUR MISSION. it’s all about$$ and your FAKE 500 max card club BS You’d take 5k members if you could 5k suckers to pay $30 a month Yea to support your family cause this is your career. 😆😆😆😆😆😊😊

This show is pretty cool and informative but about 30% is them selling their own courses, website etc

This is what’s wrong with this hobby. It’s taken over by grifters and “entrepreneurs”, it’s a joke on how they pump the market and promote the products they are clearly being paid to do so. Don’t take advice from these guys!!

Love the insight and have enjoyed diving in on the Roadshow guys as well. Enjoy intelligent sports card talk without unnecessary drama, keep it up!

Content is great, Very informative but the cost is having to listen to an infomercial about memberships and paywalls once you actually get focused on the topic at hand.

Paul Paul Paul idk where to start. The show and the concept of it is awesome and really helps a lot of people. But that fact that this big head is reading sponsors and shoutouts for the first 10 minutes of the show is awful. All he cares about is himself and making money. Dudes a clown but everyone else on the show is great! Would love a show without the first ten minutes being ads and shoutouts.

It’s a constant infomercial from Paul about what they offer behind the pay wall. Definitely solid content but 50% of it is selling the brand and services. The episodes could easily be half the time. I was skipping the first 10 minutes but it became too much.

I really enjoyed this podcast a year ago but has been going downhill. Other than Paul, people keep leaving the pod Dr Crack, Connor, etc. More than a trend at this point…

When not reading ads for partner products, the “content” is non-stop plugs for his subscription service. No valuable information or even entertaining conversation. I have no idea how this is considered a podcast instead of an infomercial.

I had high hopes for this pod, and some of the content is great, if you have the patience to sift through the constant plugging of their premium membership. It’s every other sentence. I wanted to learn the best way to track my collection, so I tried to listen to that episode, and slowly realized it was one big commercial. I got duped. Dude needs to chill.

Great context, love the info, please try your best to reference “the formula” less than 150 times per show as it’s starting to feel like and Informercial

If anyone complains about Paul and his team adding sponsorship and growing the brand then you have missed the forest for the trees. Buying and flipping anything is starting a business. If it’s a hobby for you only then find another place to learn. If you want to take an idea and grow it into a business, you can call your own, then listen to SCSS. I assume folks forget that these guys started way back before covid and are still here (while so many others have vanished to the void). “Green and growing not ripe and rotting” Loni J. Conley

Content is solid, just skip through the first 15 minutes of ads. A few plugs is fine, but this is excessive and annoying.

Spend to much time talking to their YouTube audience, promoting their sales, and patting each other on the back. Not enough time really talking through specific strategy they profess to offer. Often show close to 2 hours with 30 minutes of actual information.

If I wrote a review six months ago it probably would have been much more glowing but in recent months the show has gone downhill fast. Episodes run over long and Paul the main host seems more enamored with plugging other revenue streams than actually providing insight. In a recent episode I shut off halfway through after multiple plugs for a grading company, market movers app, their friends at Graybo’s, their memberships at nooffseason.com, and a repeated phrase of “this is why you listen to the sports card strategy show. Don’t get me wrong there is some good content mainly being provided by Lefty and Chad that actually shows a degree of research and genuine love for the hobby. But being infested by the auditory version of a pop up add every 3 minutes if very off putting. Stick to a top of show and mid-roll sponsor cut and stop trying to make everything about product placement. I want to keep being a listener but it’s hard to sift through 90-120 minutes of time for the few nuggets of good content that pop up here and there.

The guys make no bones about it, they are here to help you make money flipping Sports Cards. Vast knowledge in all sports. I absolutely love the show.

This is exactly what I was looking for as a football card investor. I’ve kind of wasted my time with other sports card investor pods that don’t know the ins and outs of studying the game. Thanks guys!!!

Just found this and very happy to get this into the rotation. They make takes based on long term trends. Sure, some will be wrong, but I’d rather this then another show about hobby news. Keep it up!

This podcast was really informative with quick ways to make sure that I dont destroy all of my hard work on my wordpress site. I have been able to advertise my business with these tips and build voice applications without knowing how to code. I can't believe he isnt charging for this!!

This podcast is awesome. Each episode is really informative and it’s really enjoyable listening. I also find that it's a perfect mix of content: Marketing, Advertising, Technology and Entrepreneurship. I reccomend this to anyone trying to take their marketing strategy to the next level.

I really enjoyed listening to this podcast. The tips are great and easy to follow to implement for any business owner or content creator. The Voice Design tips are especially great for people who want to use Alexa or any voice design with their business.

As a DJ, Entrepreneur, Businessman looking to always grow my audience via digital media this podcast is a huge help. Paul Hickey really knows what he's talking about. His experience-based wisdom and confidence is mixed with a sense of humility and humor that is so relatable. After just two episodes, I'll be a regular listener.
