    May 31 2026

    What happens when a professional comedian catches the "card bug" during COVID? In this episode of The Yukon Comp, host Russell Gibson is joined by Sean Conway to discuss the wild intersection of comedy and the hobby.

    Sean shares the incredible story of his Tyrese Haliburton redemption being replaced by a 1-of-1 LaMelo Ball "Blackbox" rookie card—and the reality check he received on its value at a massive Nashville convention. We compare the high-stakes, intimidating floors of US card shows to the laid-back vibes of the Perth scene, and Sean recounts a hilarious "time travel" experience in an Alaskan card shop located next to a weed dispensary.

    From 90s nostalgia like Shaq and Alonzo Mourning to the modern-day struggle between local shops and online breakers, this episode is a blend of laughs and deep-hobby insight.

  • MVP Repeat, Million-Dollar Grails, and the All-Rookie Shakeup
    May 26 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode, we break down the most explosive week in the NBA and the card market. We start with the official 2025-26 All-Rookie Team selections—did the voters get it right, or was there a snub in the Second Team?

    We also dive deep into the "speculation game" following a listener question: Can lower-end cards actually become special?

    Plus, we’re talking Big Money:

    • LeBron Superfractors: Is the ceiling still rising for the King?
    • SGA Back-to-Back: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander officially cements his legacy with a second straight MVP. What does this do for his blue-chip card value?
    • The 7-Figure Club: We analyze why NBA sales are consistently crossing the $1M mark in 2026.
    • Kobe PMG Madness: The Green PMG shattered records at $3.15M, but the Red PMG sales are the ones truly surprising the market. We break down the "Ruby" surge.

  • Episode 277: Inside GTI: Innovating Card Protection, Small Business Hustle, and the "Trendon Watford Hour" with Comron
    May 24 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode we welcome back Comron from Game Time International (GTI) for a deep dive into the world of NBA trading card supplies and hobby culture.

    Comron shares the latest innovations from GTI, including their game-changing magnetic one-touches with integrated inner sleeves, new 5x7 mags for Downtown cards, and the 180 PT expansion. We go behind the scenes of running a small business—from navigating global port delays to the personal touch of responding to every customer.

    Plus, things get controversial as Comron explains why he "cracks" his PSA 10s for his personal collection and we explore his massive (and potentially market-moving) Trendon Watford collection. Whether you're a hardcore collector or a small business owner, this episode is packed with hobby heart and soul.
