This week on Hobby Nonsense, Jesse is joined by Alex of Clever Cuban Cards while Ray’s out of town, and the two dive deep into a packed week of hobby news and insights!
They start by uncovering hidden gems in recent card releases — and Alex shares a possible reason why some of the best content isn’t being marketed as much as it should be. Then, the guys discuss the new Topps Disney Wonder product, comparing it to the ongoing success of Disney Chrome. While it may seem like another Disney drop, they explain why this one targets a different collector base with its Princess focus and lower entry cost.
Next up, they tackle the SpongeBob card explosion, with over 25 cards already selling for $3,000+ each in the first week! They debate whether SpongeBob could have serious long-term staying power — as long as Topps manages the print run wisely.
Finally, Jesse and Alex break down an incredible $200,000 auction of candid, autographed celebrity Polaroids — featuring actors, musicians, athletes, and politicians — and speculate on what the card manufacturer that bought them might be planning to do with them.
From Disney Princesses to SpongeBob profits and a $200K Hollywood mystery, this episode is packed with non-sport gold.
