Bad Cards & Permanent Records
-
Narrated by:
-
Written by:
Robb opens 1990 Upper Deck packs hoping for Bo Jackson and Ken Griffey Jr. Russ opens a school letter from the same year. His teacher had notes.
Garbage Pail Kids, childhood keepsakes, thin-crust pizza economics, a toaster with too much power, and an old rumor website that refuses to disappear. Then Russ reads the field-day report, and the permanent record makes a pretty strong case for itself.
The cards might be worthless. The paperwork is priceless.
Explicit language and adult humor.
