About this listen

THE SHIFT — the moments that make us.

Hosted by Luke Nesler, this video and audio podcast is recorded inside a van-turned-studio, creating a raw, intimate space for real conversations. No stage. No script. No filters. Just powerful stories and honest reflection.

Each episode breaks down the defining moments — the split seconds, decisions, and experiences that permanently shape who we are, how we think, and how we move through our careers and lives. The moment that challenges your comfort. The moment that forces growth. The moment that shifts your mindset and changes everything moving forward.

From entrepreneurs and athletes to creators and leaders, THE SHIFT explores what happens before success, during struggle, and after transformation. These are the stories behind the highlight reels. The lessons learned through pressure, adversity, failure, and perseverance.

Because real growth doesn’t happen in comfort — it happens in transition.

Inside this van, walls come down, perspectives change, and real conversations unfold. This is where stories are shared, truths are uncovered, and inspiration is sparked.

One moment can change the rest of your life.
One decision can redefine your future.

Welcome to THE SHIFT.

    From Passion to Precision: Mastering Niche Markets | Devon Criss | The Shift
    Feb 17 2026

    In this episode of The Shift, host Luke Nesler sits down with Devon Criss — Burns JCB team member based in Bridgeport, West Virginia, elite trading card collector, hobby guru, and Rolex reseller — for a fascinating conversation about passion, discipline, and building value through expertise.

    Devon breaks down how he transformed a personal interest in trading cards into a serious pursuit of knowledge, strategy, and long-term investing. From understanding market trends and grading to spotting undervalued cards and navigating high-end watch sales, he shares how patience, research, and timing play a major role in success — both in collectibles and in business.

    This episode explores the mindset behind collecting at a high level, the parallels between alternative investments and entrepreneurship, and how mastering a niche can open unexpected doors. Whether you're into sports cards, luxury watches, or simply building smart side hustles, Devon offers practical insight and real-world lessons that translate far beyond the hobby.

    Real conversations. Real knowledge. Real shifts.
