So head on over to ebay live and tell them that Doug and the crew at the hype sent you and we'll take care of you over there on ebay live. But I was really excited. My kids found this toy and I think it might have been the greatest toy that's ever been invented. I have yet to see it. They were at the store and I left for here and they showed me this thing and I don't know if this thing is going to go viral, but I think it's just such a great idea for music lovers. I know us three here are all music lovers but the mini brands vinyl. I mean getting the kids involved in collecting some vinyl. It's playable. I don't know if you have a video to show Dan, because I don't think Dan's acting like he's seen the, the. The. The post I put on there. Maybe he didn't. So you got to. Got to, you got to check this out here. I can check. I can, I can show you. It's got like a little, little vinyl player that. But it, I don't think it's probably what we're going to be looking at. Right. No, here, I got, I've got their, their website here, right. Right now. So you can take a look. Here we go. There it is. So they look like little mini record players. Oh, and you put that. Is that a real size hand? It's a. That's a real sized hand. And those are tiny little vinyl. Tiny. That's a. It's a record for ants. But they have, they. You know, we've been talking about trying to get music involved in the hobby, and I think, you know, this is obviously more aimed at kids, but I think they had parents in mind with some of the selections. It does really play that one song. The vinyl. The mini vinyl itself has a sleeve, has the art. It only has one song on it. It only has one song. One song on each, I would imagine. I haven't tested it out yet, but we need to grab one and test one. Yeah, I have one at my house. Is that a. Is that a. Is that Neil Diamond? That is a Neil. Yeah, that is one of the ones they featured there. It'll go back. Neil Diamond. No kid is like, oh, I really want to get the Neil diamond record. And. No, it is. What. I mean, look, they just had that new Neil diamond movie out. That wasn't really a Neil diamond movie. Want to get the Sabrina Carpenter single? Well, they have Smash Mouth Walking on the Sun. That's one of them. Well, San Jose, great. They. The selection was like very, like obviously going back to, you know, with things that actually were on vinyl that were originally pressed on vinyl and then stuff from today, like, I think you see like a Bruno Mars smash Mouth wasn't on vinyl. Well, no, they weren't. There's a lot of 70s that was in the heyday of CDs. It was. Now this is the other thing is I. It's also made me realize vinyl is the only sort of. I don't want to call it extinct because it's not. There's. There's kind of been a resurgence of collecting kind of. It's. It's. It's bad. It's pop. It's fine. I would say it basically, the way people digest Music now. I would say MP3 vinyl. I think though there's still. Don't. I don't want to poo poo. CD. No, no, no, I'm not saying CDs. Popping a CD. No, CDs are gone. Vinyl. Vinyl is the one that. I mean, I guess maybe you mp3 video. Like YouTube. I would say yes, absolutely. I think there's still. Digital is still dominant, but there's an audience for it. Just like there's an audience for like, I would say as far as a non digital. Yes, it's the preferred non digital. Preferred non digital. It's the preferred physical form, you know, is. Is CD digital. Yeah, but it's physical. It's a physical. No, it's a physical. I mean, seriously. Yeah, it's like physical media. So I think it's the preferred physical media for music. There's still an audience for it. It's not going to be the number one, but there's still the fact that it's still around and it's alive and cassettes are gone. CDs are gone back. Cassettes. Cassettes are coming back. But cassettes are not. Like, I don't know, like you don't hold a cassette and go, wow, this really feels like something. So like with series, I mean, to kind of like bring the collectibility out of this. There's 53 different vinyl covers that play songs. 10 rare, 12 uncommon, 31 common, and 45 of the. The really works class, whatever that means. So maybe some of them don't actually play the song. Well, these aren't Blind wrapped, are they? Yes, they're blind wrapped. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. So. So you could open it up and you don't know who you're gonna correct. Yeah, Little Sally wants a Sabrina Carpenter. But like, sorry, you got Neil Diamond. You're getting Neil Diamond. I mean, we're looking at school. Nothing more crushing for a child to basically go, I'm gon. But instead I get Neil Diamond. But I would like to think that they're getting educated on some of the greats of the past. I mean, there's. One of the rare ones is Good Vibration by the Beachy. The Beachy Boys. The Beachy Boys. Sorry, I'm looking at BC Boys too. Heck of a tribute. That would be a heck of a. Heck of a tribute band. Beach Boy songs in the style of the Beastie Boys. That would be awesome. I think we just. We just unlocked a cheat code right there. That is so. Yeah. When's. When's the band getting Together we need to do. We're going to stop this. Can you imagine like some kind of like Beach Boy harmonies with like the Beasty Boys kind of hip hop elements. O Beautiful. There we go. Every Breath youh Take by Sting. Roar, Roar. Katy Perry. Even Not Like Us. Kendrick Lamar is on there. So that's a harder one to get. That's a rare 1. ABC Jackson 5. You have kiss Rock and Roll All Night. You have All Star Smash Mouth. You have Man I Feel Like a Woman, Shania Twain. You have Super Freak by Rick James. Okay. You have California Dreaming by the Mamas and the Papas. Born to Be Wild, Steppenwolf. I mean, it's. I was like, I was in awe of this product. And it's. The vinyl actually has little sleeves too. It has the paper sleeve on the inside for the kids to take it out. It's pretty awesome. I'm sorry, I know you said the kid. I'm into it. That's what I'm saying. I'm going to go buy some. It's not. It. It's not about the kids. There was a part of me. My wife was in front of the display. 40. It's about the 40 something. Yeah. My wife was in front of the display and I was like, you should buy all of them. Like I was. I was thinking in my head. But she only bought a few of them. So how much is a blind wrapped album to get the vinyl record? I think the vinyl player, because it plays the songs is I believe it's 20 bucks. And it comes with the. The Bruno Mars song. And then I think it's a two pack is 1999, I believe. I'm trying to. I'm trying to figure this out. But I think that what they bought has five. There's five of them in there. There's five vinyls in like a deluxe pack or something. Yeah. So that's how you. But that doesn't come with the record player. It's just in a little ball. Some of. Some of you parents that have kids understand like the mini brands. You can get like the little Colgates or the little Cheez Its and it's just, you know, obviously they're not real Cheez Its, but it's meant to like be collectible. And yeah, the vinyl. And then you can get like different vinyl cabinets that are rare. You can get like different speaker cabinets with it that like that are all blind wrapped as well. I love. They come with record crates like that. You can put your set in a little mini record crate. That was my, my dad's pride and joy was our big. Our vinyl cabinet with the, with the wood speakers and record record player and then also had the cassette and an eight track player there. Eight track player, had the whole deluxe set. I mean I do got surround sound in the living room. 8, 8 track Is I underrated? 8 tracks are underrated. Better sound quality. I. There's something about. I don't know why eight tracks did not take off. So you get. Yeah, so when you buy the record player is a certain price, but then you just buy these to fill your vinyl. Looks like you get four and a new accessory. Sound. What are these Sound cabinets, man. There's all kinds of different ones. There's. There's a lot going on. Is there any actual brands like you get like a techniques or is it Bowers and Wilkins? I don't think so. I think they've really went hard on the licensing from the, the musicians. Yeah. Maybe not necessarily the, the product like the, the thing that plays it, but I'm into it. I just realized this is the same mini brands that did because I know this was very popular a couple years ago around Christmas time. They had like the stores, the mini brand stores. There was a Disney store one that was really popular. I remember with kids. There's like a Target one I think too. So. Okay, so the same mini brands also. I said this in the chat right when I saw it. I'm like, I know I've seen this before. There was a thing in the 90s called hit clips and it was a tiny little speaker from Tiger Electronics. I don't even know if Tiger Electronics is around. But they were a force. No, but they did, they did the talk back. Yes. Remember the. I remember the talk. I had a talk. Was it in, was it in Home Alone? Yes, I think so. I, I wanted to talk. Clips is a digital audio player created by Tiger Electronics that plays low fidelity mono one minute clips of usually teen pop hits. They were. It was like. I loved it. But yeah, it was like one minute of a song versus this is playing the whole song. I'm guessing. I don't think so. Yeah. So it's the same thing. I. I don't know. Okay. I have to test it when I get home. Yeah, apparently it's. The speaker is pretty loud for a small player. Okay. My kids said is it, is it powered by a battery? I'm assuming. Yeah, yeah. Maybe USB charger, by the way. USB charger? Yeah. If it's like a 9 volt battery, you can only get Actually they have. They have amplifiers that run on 9 volt batteries. So if you would like a hit clips with six music clips right now on eBay, 100 bucks. These were like $10. Wow. Even with the six pack, these were not. These were cheap. Hundred dollars if you hung on. That is the little boom box it came with so you could have. So this one has looked like little like mini. So this is what it is one. They have the one that came with the headphones. But this is the one I remember is the boombox, that red one. And that was the little mini one you put it in and would play for everybody. Oh, you got Baha. This one's got Baja Men, Backstreet Boys, larger than life. And the call is that the. The black. Is that like the player that. Yeah, that's the little like personal one. Yeah, it's got a head. It's got one little ear. Literally only big enough for one earbud is how small this thing you truly do get. Mono. Yeah, it's true. Mono. Wow. Exactly. This is brought to you by Mini Brands today, guys. Thank you. Mini brands for many brands. Kind of carrying the torch of Tiger Electronics, who also had like, there was all those little mini electronics back in the 90s. So it's just coming back. It's back, Yeah. I mean. And to swing it back into cards. I remember like, I think it was my. Because I still have a picture seventh or eighth birthday. I got the talking baseball, which was the. You know, I'm totally aging myself because I think this is like around 89, 90ish. Because it was. I think it was 90 tops. I remember you get these oversized cards, you put them in this player and it talks about either like Don Mattingly or Nolan Ryan, like, you know, tells you a little bit. Snippets of some of his plays from some of the radio broadcasters. Or it'll tell you a story, if I remember correctly, about the player himself. And I remember I had a Hank Aaron. You'd buy these packs, you'd put it in there and it would. Would play. I think I might have found it. Is this the one we're talking about right here? No. Okay. A little different. Talking baseball. Talking handheld game. This is another game. Okay. I have to find it. I think it's called talking baseball and it's a big blue thing. I'm gonna look on ebay now too. We're getting a little off topic, but it's starting line. Is it starting lineup? Talking baseball. Yep, I see it right there. So. No, no, no. Sports talk it's called Sports Talk. Sports Talk. 1989 MLB Tops Baseball. Sports Talk player. You. If you search. Did you got the right ear? If you. Yeah, if you search on ebay, you can find one on the front page. Let's see some of these players they. That they were highlighting. Yeah, there it is right there. 1989. I've got it here. Oh, yeah, this is. This is cool. I don't think I've ever seen one of these. I know we've talked about it before, but I don't think I've ever seen one. Yeah, there it is right there. Oh, and you put the card in there. And you put the card in there and it's a speaker. I love how one of the example cards. How would it know that it was a Don Mattingly? Because there's some kind of encryption on the back. I think there's. Yeah, they're specifically cards because there's a. There's like a Hank Aaron in there, but that looks like it's specifically. So maybe have to be a. It's specific. Yes. So you wouldn't be able to put any card in there. No, no, These are way oversized. No, these are like, not even the card size. Regular. They're like big. $124 for this thing. I can imagine. Yeah. Again, that was not the price. I think it. Oh, and there's a little. Looks like a checklist. You collect. Collect the whole Premiere series. Nice. And I think. I don't think there was a second series, to be honest. I think that was it. That was. I remember getting on my birthday and I was. It was cool for like a week and, you know. Yeah, but just shows you. I was collecting cards when I was seven. Now you. Now you can really put my age together. So. Yeah, I was seven collecting these things and I thought it was. I thought it was pretty cool. So actually. Yeah, if you look at it right here, they're actually like kind of encased. So I think that's how it. Digital ties is the. But they are based on the TOPS design. Their TOPS card, 1989 design. I like that. I like that. So another thing that kids are doing these days, they're coming in the shop for the World cup stickers. And we're just a few days away from opening ceremonies. The first couple games of the World cup. That goes from June 11th all the way to July 19th. Gonna end at Fanatics Fest. Well, not at FedEx Fest specifically, but play there just. Just right down the street is going to be the championship final. While Fanatics Fest is going on and these stickers, you know, they, they are, they are being highly collected this year. I've seen more buzz on the stickers this year. We're selling them in shop. So if you're in the Bay Area, come on down. We've got the 25 count quantities and now we have the hardcovers. We have single packs and we ran out of the 50, but we're getting those back in here. And the Panini truck is going to be here on June 16th as well. I just feel like I, maybe I haven't noticed this in prior World cup years. There is so much media and advertising. Like, they're knocking this thing out of the park. Like, I, I was on YouTube TV. It made me like bookmark my, my favorite countries. I, I was, I was in, I was in Safeway over here. And they're everything, branded World cup from the chips to like, cereal, to like different sodas and stuff. You go into a toy store and they have all the toys and there's minifigures of like Ronaldo and all this other stuff. I just bought a Lego Ronaldo set. Like, it just like the mass amount of like, awareness for the World cup this year is absolutely crazy. Which leads me to this question, because we know fanatics is taking over the World cup license in 2031, which means we have only one more World cup session in 2030, another tournament under the Panini brand. Do you think that Panini legacy customers, it's been in there. And I'm talking more about overseas, like Spain, Europe, Brazil, all these countries, it is like Christmas to build their World cup sticker books. When top six over, are they going to have the same buzz? I think they will. I think they will because it's. Because it's what's available, frankly. I think, I think initially, I think it's human nature to not love change. So you're probably going to hear a little bit of pushback. But at the end of the day, what Cody is saying, it's, if you want to build the sticker book, it's going to be your only option. So you're probably going to adapt to it. Yeah, it's. That's what it is. It's, you know, adapt or die, essentially. My thing is that, like, we see how popular the World cup sticker book is now. Panini comes out with a sticker book for every single sport, and you don't even get close to the popularity. Like, how do we get a little bit of that popularity into the baseball sticker books or the football sticker books, in my opinion. Hockey, I think actually doesn't. Tops do the hockey stickers. Tops does hockey stickers. Yeah. Because of. I think all of those really gained. All those other sports really gained prominence from a trading card aspect. Whetheras soccer gained popularity from a sticker aspect. But the thing. And I'm going to age myself as well. Like I remember being a kid and Panini had baseball sticker books. Yes. And I remember it might have been 88, something like that. It was around the. The famous Battle of the Bay. I think in 89 that they. It was really prominent for. It might have been. It might have been 87 book. Because I think. Because I think it was. I remember flipping through it and it had the Giants and Cardinals playing in the NLCS. So it was. It was 87. Okay. But I remember you would go to the grocery store, they would have the book and then underneath the book they had the individual packs. And every time, every time I went there, I always got a couple packs of stickers to basically put in my sticker book. Yep, me too. Me too. But that seemed like they still make the same type of sticker books, same type of stickers. But where's the popularity? I think 89 came into play and the junk wax wax era kind of washed all of that away and it never gained back prominence. Where there is cards did, but stickers for the other sports didn't. And I don't know, maybe it's bad marketing. Maybe it's just. I don't know what it is. That's a good question. What are your thoughts, Cody, on that one? I think honestly it's as simple as you said it. Like soccer, like the legacy of soccer collecting is international first. It's always going to be international. I think that's the other thing is all these other sports you just mentioned, so international consumers enjoy stickers. I don't even know if it's maybe, maybe it's price point too. I think there's price point that's at play. And I think or domestically we just do a really bad job of marketing the stickers. I think there's that. I think there's. All of the domestic sports have a bigger legacy of trading cards over stickers where they were kind of playing catch up with stickers. I think it's really as simple as that. It's just like stickers came first. It's the most popular sport in the world. It's a cheaper price point for a wider audience to get involved in it. And then you have this and, and also the scarcity in a way of, like, you're only getting this every four years. It's truly an event. True. Yeah. When you gonna pick out which year to collect? Are you gonna collect baseball every single year? Exactly. Yeah. That's. That, I think probably has something to do with it. I also believe that, like, it just seems like in Europe, it's just been ingrained into the culture. Yes. Yep. But you. I mean, you're probably talking about back in the day. You know, maybe you can fact check this. When was the first Panini World cup sticker book made? Like, when was it distributed? No, it was like, 70s, wasn't it? 19. I. I. Well, I said 19. I. Yeah, I believe it's 1970 because they keep saying that once the 20, 31, it'll end a 60, 71. 1968, when the next one will be. The next one will be the 60th anniversary of Panini doing sticker books for the World Cup. Okay. So, yeah, it's 1970 will be. Is when it was. So I can imagine, you know, you're in, you know, especially overseas where money rate's a little bit different. You could probably. These people are probably buying these packs of stickers for, like, a couple cents, you know what I mean? And they were enjoying this tradition for not a lot of money. And. But it costs so less for them for them to make stickers, and it does cards that they can. Their. Their cost is very low. So there was probably a lot more widely accepted is like, it's just like a pack of. Of gum. People. Kids were going in, buying a pack of gum, and they're buying some stickers. It was just like the same price. It's like, now it's like, all right, I want a pack of cards. I'm paying that, you know, $10, 19.99. All this other. It's just not as accessible. 3200 and I wonder $5000 definitive box and, like, how available it is too. And got some. I see the, the, the stats and of where people listen. I see some European listeners. So if there's anyone out there who grew up with this, like, I would imagine maybe these are more readily available in more shops, whereas you do have to go to a lot of hobby shops or maybe a sporting goods store to seek out baseball cards, basketball cards. That's actually a good point. Like, in Europe, maybe the stickers are readily available at, like, the grocery store. Every store? Yeah, like, yeah, every convenience store, every grocery store, every, like, pharmacy, everything. Like, they're always like here. I mean, yeah, we do have like pharmacies that have them. We have like, I mean Walmart. The fact that the whole Coca Cola partnership, the fact that you can you get Coke products this summer and you get exclusive stickers if you really want to finish out your, your sticker book. So you do actually have to seek out places that are more that. That are non traditional places you would buy sports cards and collectors. Well, you're putting the sticker book together. Doug, how do you feel about the inclusion of having to buy a Coca Cola product to finish your stick? Yeah, I mean I obviously this is my first year I've been involved with it and I'm like, you need 980 stickers. That includes the, the, the I think 10 Coca Cola ones. I have four of those currently. Yeah, I mean it does kind of if you're a set purist, I'm sure people are like, this sucks because I don't want to have to buy something other than what I'm buying normally. So I'm sure set purists are like kind of up in the air about it. But there's. We're going to see in some slides here shortly. So me personally, I've been buying the 25 count and the 50 count and I would say probably every other pack. I'm getting a blue parallel, which is the essentially for in card terms is like a refractor. It's not numbered. None of these are numbered except for the one on one. I refuse personally to put the blue ones in. So I'm putting those all to the side because I want all mine to be uniform. I want all, all of them to be the white parallel. So you don't want the parallels? I don't want to stick them in there. I don't want to stick them in my book because I want them the same color and try to trade the parallels maybe. I mean there is a trade night on the, on June 11, but like I've also talked to other sticker people and they're like, oh no, I put them in there because then there's the red parallel which you get like one in every 50 packs. And then there's obviously the one of one and we can start this debate right now. I think it's perfect timing, Cody. There's a big group of soccer collectors and because there's kids involved, we're seeing this on the Internet. That one down there below is a one of one that stuck on itself in the Portugal or I'm sorry, the Argentina side. And I believe that is which player is that? It's, it's a, it's a good one. It's one of the up and coming stars for Argentina. So that basically there is no more value in that 101 now because it is stuck in the book. There's also, on the other side, there is another one. You can sell a whole buck. That does happen, but people like to get these things graded on, you know, with, with the back still on it. So now essentially there's no back on this now because it's been stuck to the book. And the other one's on top of it now on that one. So it brings up a debate of, you know, do you put the one on one in there? Do you sell the one on one? What do you do if you pull a one on one? I know they're rare. There's 980 subjects. There's only one one on one of every one. But they're, they're somewhat rare. And I, I assume, I think we've seen Ronaldo's and Messi's go for 50 to 100k. Cody, do we have any data on that? I'll double check on those ones. Yeah, on the stickers. So there is, there is that crazy high ceiling in this set, but there still is people that organically put the sticker books together. So it's a very interesting element from a hobby. I mean, I, I'm with you and I'm, I'm not putting it. Maybe I should put one together, but I'm not, I'm not putting one together. But I would want mine to be uniformed. I wouldn't put any of the parallels in there, but what would I do with the parallels? I just have them in one of the empty boxes and. Yeah, yeah, that, that's my, that's my thing is I'm like, why? Like what, I should just put him in the book? Not just. Yeah, put him in a box. I mean, it depends on the parallel, obviously, because here's the one of one messy. This comes from. This is. I just found this on card letter 1 of 1 Messi from the 2022 Qatar World Cup. It's a PSA 8 on the 101, but who cares? It's a 1 of 1, but 140K, 139, 200. That's what I'm saying. For that probably, for that sticker. Probably wouldn't put a few other ones. There's a 20. There's a 2004 sticker. Probably his first one. His first one, $120,000 for a PSA 10. And I would imagine the pop count may be a little higher on that one too. And doesn't matter. That's from 2022. So a 2025 sale. $90,000. Still. Still pretty impressive for a sticker. It is. And it's an interesting element that we don't experience in sports cards because the population count is kind of self like, you know, devalued in a sense because people are sticking them in the books. Right. So then it's like, I don't think somebody that collects messy is going to want to buy a whole book just for a messy parallel and then have to flip through and find it every time they want it in a slab in their collection of messy cards and messy stickers that they have. Same thing with Ronaldo. You've got Lamina Mall this year. You have Killian Mbappe. You have, you know, all these stars that are playing in the World cup are in this book. Like 980 different stickers to collect with 980 101s, 980 blues. There's also the gold set that I don't know how you get. I think other countries have different colors of these stickers too, because I've seen like a light blue one as the base. So there's a lot of different elements. And Panini's like literally made all their money on 980 subjects. Yeah, there's. Well, there's 20 from each team. There's 48. So. So every single player. Yes. That is on the. Single player that's on the roster gets a sticker. Yep. Well, they had. They do their best because the cuts just happened. They had to promote. They had to. They had to. You know, this has been in the works for three months or pro. They probably. They probably cut the roster down like four or five months ago to up this production. Yeah. So like, I think there's like for usa, there's a guy named like Diego Nunes. I don't think he made the roster, but he has a sticker in there. Right. So, yeah, there's gonna be a few guys, injury, replacements, all that sort of stuff. Yeah. Also grading stickers gotta be a tough task because I'm looking, obviously we just said that. PSA8 messy. This is the one of one Ronaldo from the 22 World Cup PSA6 on it. It's still sold for 78k. Again, doesn't. Doesn't maybe doesn't matter. I don't know what a PSA 10 does to that it's still the one of one. And I know you just were on SCN with Jesse doing the one of one debate of grading one of ones and all that. So I don't know what that really does. But it's also maybe a, a dangerous thing to do or a risky thing to do grading your stickers because it gotta be pretty tough much to. To grade than your traditional. And, and I agree there, there's two sides to that though. These things are really flimsy too. So do you really want these? I mean I have an extra messy base that's probably only worth like five bucks but I put it in a top loader because I'm just like that's not in my book. So I have two I. Two messes. That's the only star I got two of but I have that in a top loader. So it's like cuz it's like, like I said, this is like just a bendable piece of paper and you don't want like the worst thing if you're keeping it is you want it to peel right. So you don't want that to happen. I also went this whole way putting these stickers in the book without really like there's people that would learn how to fold it right and put it in so it's straight and I was just literally eyeballing it the whole time. Yeah. So I'm not like per my. My book is not like, you know, perfectly straight all the time. I did my best, but I saw the video after of like, oh, this is how you put it in straight. I wonder maybe you can find this on ebay. I wonder if people complete the whole book and then sell it on. They do. That was already available last week when I was looking. So you like for this, for, for this, this one? Yeah, yeah. World cup put in the work. You could probably look it up. Cody. Some, some of them even done it with the gold sticker book complete. This is the most we've talked about stickers in the history of this podcast. I would say look, it's. This is a new. I think it speaks to one that the World Cup's here in the US for the first time in how many years? 1994. 94. So in 32 years, right? Yeah, 32 years we've had the men's World cup here. It's been a long time. There's a lot of renewed interest and I think too the fact that this is the second to last panini version. There's a legacy here where I Think people are realizing it's all the things we've said about other Panini products. Well, this is the last prism. This is the last. This is the last that. And there should be that extra juice for it. Now, this isn't the last one, but certainly it's also the last. With Messi and Ronaldo potentially. There's a lot of factors. I think you gotta figure that they're not gonna play another World Cup. No, I think is. Is Ronaldo 41? He's in. He's either up there or he's close. He's gotta be close to this. Yes, he's 40. He's 41. Like 39. Yeah, Messi. Messi also pretty close. I think a little younger, but yes, I believe he is 38. 38. He actually will be 39 in the middle of the tournament actually in a week from now. About two weeks from now. Yeah, I just looked it up. The recent sale, this is on June 9th, of a complete set. $350 for a complete set. Just the base, but it's the complete set. There is some people asking, well, there's a Mexico version in the book, I believe. It's like already stuck in the book. Might not be actually stuck in the book. The one I'm looking like, there is one with not a hardcover that they actually gave you all the stickers. Unpasted 980dol. Dollars. Oh, but what's the fun in that? I mean, that is. That is probably the. That's probably a lot cheaper of a way to do it because, you know, you figure retail on 25 counts 50, and retail on a 50 count is a hundred, you know, 900. You're probably not going to be able to buy all the sets that fill your book and get no dupes because I. I'm getting like 50 dupes. So if I buy a hundred stickers, especially now, it's even worse that I have 600 in there. But you get seven stickers per pack, right? Seven stickers per pack. So you're getting in the 25 pack was just some quick 150. So what's 140? One hundred and seventy five in that and then 350 in the. Yeah, yeah. I'm looking to get 50. So theoretically. So if you buy five, five or six 50 count boxes, you should be able to complete yourself. You should. But you're just getting dupes. I have some guys, I have five or six of the same player and then I have ones that I haven't gotten. Well, there's no better time than to go to the trade. Your dilemma. Yeah. And to come down here at Mojo Break Shop and enjoy this panini sticker trade event. It's gonna be. I'm very excited to see the turnout reaction. I. I know this sounds crazy. I think it's going to be our biggest event yet. And Team Mexico plays to kick off the tournament. Because the situation that Doug is actually talking about, I don't think. I don't think Doug having a bunch of dupes is isolated to Doug. I don't. I think. I don't think you have bad luck. I think that's just the nature of opening up this product. It is. Yeah. So there is going to be a lot of people that are very similar to Doug who are going to be coming in here to trade their dupes to try to build their set. And this is just something that. The barrier of entry. You could come in here and buy just one single pack. But I think we're selling them for $1.99. So, you know, kids, you know, mowing some lawns, he can come in here and try to build more onto his book, you know, and trade at the same time. So I. And. And it's summer, right? I mean, my kids are struggling for stuff to do every day, and then summer just started, like, literally just started yesterday. And we're bored. We're bored already. I'm interested to see if there's going to be like a three for one trade, a four for one trade for one trade. Could be what value do put on a star player. It's cool to see. And, you know, I know obviously know that we're like, breakers first, and it's all about the big hit. But, like, this is kind of the, like, the sticker book is like, taking it back to the essence of collecting, you know, the building of the sets. Like, that's. That's how I started in. In 87 was getting my whole set of tops together, and then in 88, getting my whole set of tops together, and then 89. This is like the same thing. And I think it's really cool that, you know, there's not a lot of monetary. There is monetary possibilities, but it's. There's not really a huge monetary risk involved of, like, I either hit this rookie card or I don't get anything. There's just not. There's going to be, like, some commerce going down. You think people are going to start trying to sell individual stickers? I thought of it. I thought of, like, no, I'm putting All my dupes in the shop. Like, we, we basically put it as a trade event. Well, if we're going by our trade, there's a guy. We do not allow this. There's a guy buying a hardcover as we speak. There you go. So it's, it's. It's happening and we're not. It hasn't even started yet. You know, I have been. Well, then. Then we also have the panini truck coming. Yes. That is the 16th. Yeah, June 16th. I'm really. Tons of people have already. According to Panini, tons of people have already RSVP make your own sticker. Which seems like an awesome thing. Oh, so you need that sticker to be put. Well, yeah, but it's yourself. There is. That's saying there's a space in there for your own stickers. So if you want to be a completist, you have to get your card, your sticker made. Yeah, yeah. And which I believe you can do online, too. Like, if you can't, like, you know, we're in the Santa Clara Bay area, so feel free to travel out. And this is going to be a really cool event on June 16th. But, you know, if you don't have a shop around, I think you can go on to panini America.net and get one ordered. I don't know how much it costs, but you can get one ordered to make it to. To, you know, and that'd be cool. Like, I don't want a picture of myself in there. Like, you know, be cool if, like, it's a kid and it reminds you of what you looked like at that. And you can put any country you want on it. Like, so if you're a fan of Canada or, you know, Uzbekistan or, you know, Holland or Norway, you know, you can get one of those logos on there. Yeah. And there will be a match at Levi Stadium that night. Austria versus Jordan at 9:00pm, 9 00pm yes. How did they get around? This is. I know. That's what I don't understand. This is like, what's up? What's up? Midnight on the east coast, right? Midnight on the east coast now, I guess for the start of the pitch. No, I guess like in Europe, though, it's like, it's the morning, so it's like, oh, cool. I think. I don't know. But also, how'd they get around the, like the curfew? The old people that complain in my neighborhood? Yeah. I don't know. Well, FIFA comes. It's. It's one of those. And look 40, but 45 minute halves. Right. So it's an hour and a half. So it starts at nine. That puts it at 10:30. You can you add a half an hour for. It's gonna end before time and pre game events. It's going to end at 11. You better believe the fine residents of Santa Clara are not going to allow it to go one minute over. That said, it feels very like this is, you know, this is like a beyond a Super bowl level event. But I just think of when the super bowl came here the first time. There was a lot of hub of. You guys might remember this of the soccer fields that get used right behind the 49 practice. That's where they're. That's where they're playing the world. And they were big. Yeah, right. There was this big hubbub about like they. They promise they're not touching those fields. The NFL cannot touch those fields. And what happened? I remember I went in the NFL, touched those fields and they put all their tents and all their employees on that field and they're like, we're not listening to you. We're the NFL. So I'm sure FIFA is the same way. They're like, you put a big tarp over that Levi's logo. We're FIFA. The other. Yeah, they had to cover up Levi. What's up? What's up with that? So none of it. Unless you are Levi not come in with the large. The large check to be like. We'd like to be a sponsor. Unless you are an approved World cup sponsor. Is it like that for every stadium? Unless you are an appropriate. It's called Los Angeles Stadium right now. Yep. They're very called San Francisco Bay Area. You would think I. And look, I, I don't know how much it is to advertise. Probably billions. Billions. A lot of money. Probably way above my pay grade. But you would think Sofi would be like. They would have figured it out. We'll cut the check. We'll cut the check. But it's worldwide, right. So it's like, you know, these sponsors, they're probably like this is where like this is going to make so much money. And why the advertising people not wear Levi is in Europe because like Mexico is probably getting a brand to sponsor their. Their channels. England's having a brand sponsor their channels. America is having brands sponsor their channel. There's just all this advertising money going everywhere. Is the stadium called the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium? That is what it's called, yes. San Francisco Bay area. And the only places that have their normal Stadium. Good ring to it. It runs right off the tongue are stadiums that are not named after that don't have branding. So like BC Place, Vancouver, it's just. It's the same name because they don't have branding. So MetLife, I'm assuming, is not. Not life. I mean, New York Stadium, New York Stadium. I'm looking at the schedule right now and It's Toronto Stadium, LA Stadium, New York, NJ Stadium, San Francisco Bay Area Stadium, Philadelphia, Houston, Dallas stadiums. Yeah. No, there's none. None. No. Interesting. None. Because maybe, maybe they can just keep it. I don't. Sorry, Levi. Well, they did. I know. We don't have Levi south either. So we like got screwed twice. The Niners. So we have Levi North, Levi south, and they're both in the World cup and it's not happening. So I'm just. It doesn't matter. What you're talking about football, it doesn't matter? No. Well, no, we're talking about the real football, but does it. No. I mean, but if you're talking about like football, you know, American football, American football, it doesn't matter. It's over for everybody. 31 teams are done. We talked about that. We already talked about. Yeah, you threw out the first pitch at the Dodger game. Whatever. You guys really cut that up. And again, people get angry. Well, you know what? You had a lot of supporters on Tick Tock. A lot of supporters. And you know, I've always said they were like, that's right, Dan, speak your truth. I've always said my favorite platform is my fine friends. Well, I, you know, I made a. I made a prediction on there. I mean, I don't know, nobody commented. I don't mean we didn't get a lot of comments on the Instagram post of that version, but like, I was like, the rams are going 5 and 12. They're gonna beat the Cardinals twice. They're gonn beat the Seahawks twice and the Raiders once. So it's going to be a 5 and 12 season. No. That's it. No. Yeah. You beat the Seahawks twice or scrubs the air Cardinals twice, easy. And then the Raiders are rebuilding. That's it. All the rest are L's Seahawks. They're the defending champs. Seahawks are tough. I mean, there's a defending champ. I did not say that as a bias niner. I just threw the Raiders in there because I didn't want to look at the rest of the schedule. But like, you know that I knew they were playing the Raiders because we're playing the Raiders. So I just. I just threw that out there for. You guys are playing the Raiders. You guys are playing the Raiders at. What's the place called again? San Francisco Bay Area? Well, no, no. That's in Mexico, isn't it? No, I thought it was. We're playing the Vikings in Mexico. I think. I was thinking a couple years ago, Stadium of Santa Clara County. Yep. I thought for sure they would have the Raiders in Mexico, though. That would make a lot of sense. They did it a few years ago when it was the first time they met up. They're gonna have a Levi and it's Levi one. It's going to be a tough ticket to get. Yes to. It's. It's going to be rough, man. It's going to be violent. It's a violent. Two violent fan bases. I think Raider fans might have cooled off a little bit recently. You're like, we've had it tough enough the last few years. They got. They got Kirk Cousins now. Let me ask you this. Let me ask, Fernando, per. Turning to. Pertaining to that game, do you think the fine folks at Levi, like, you know, whoever brings in the food and the beverages, do you think Four Locos gets Four Locos. It gets stocked up for that event. Do you think the Four Locos make it in there? It's a dangerous mix. Probably not, but that is like the drink of choice for Raiders fans. Do they serve four locals still? No. Okay. First off, there's no way. There's no. No stadium is serving four Locos. I don't even know it. Didn't four Locos get like. It got banned. The, the, the recipe got changed because it used to be like, what if a monster energy drink also had five shots of vodka? Yeah. You can't basically take five shots of vodka and just add 400 milligrams of caffeine and be like this. Nothing wrong can happen here. Oh, yeah. There were a lot of kids on. When I was back in college. A lot kids on college campuses having like close to heart attacks. Yeah. You can't. Yeah. But what's the difference? I mean, in all honesty, we're having a Red Bull vodka. Yeah. And you could pay the 48, get the double shot. So, I mean, what's the difference? It's also packed with sugar. That was the other thing because it was like. So it's taking this huge. It's like malt liquor plus sugar plus energy. Malt liquor. You can't. There's no bar or place that you can go to to order a Four Locos. Look if there was a bar around here, you can't do that. That made essentially a cocktail that tasted like a four Loco. I'm there. I need that nostalgia and strike you as a Four Locos. This was my. This was the moment there was a couple of years before. Loco. I was like a freshman in college. Like it just the right moment. I think. I think back in the day they had something called an amf and I think that was my drink. Incredible Hulk. The Incredible Hulk. That was my 20. That was the honorary 21st birthday drink was an AMF. AMF. Yeah. You were like, I don't have a couple of beers. And then the second spot that essentially is if. If I remember correctly, it is a Long island iced tea. But blue. It's like a Blue Ver. It's like, like every type of alcohol you can have. Yeah, Jungle juice. Yeah, with a little bit of carbonation. Sprite or something. And then blue. Yeah, blue. Blue. Four loco. Everyone's favorite flavor. Blue. Blue. Four locos. Levi Stadium, Raiders Niners, November 8th. Make it happen. Let's do it. They're serving Jones soda in Seattle. Why not Four Locos here? Yeah, yeah. That was another. They serve it at Levi. Who? I think it's Pepsi. I think it's Pepsi. It is Pepsi brand. Yeah. So you get your Sierra Mist, not your Sprite. Yeah, they almost changed it. It's not Sierra Mist anymore. Starry. Starry. Yeah, whatever. It's not Sprite, though. It's. Well, you. You know, that's. And God, I'm just showing you how fat I am. When you go through this. This drive through at Taco Bell, you're like, like. The kids are like, I'll take a Sprite. I'm like, sprite. They're like Serum Mist or Starry. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We know what you. We know what you have. No, you get it all the time where you're just like, oh, I'll take a Coke. They're like, sorry, we have pets. Pepsi. It's Pepsi. Okay, you. You know what I'm gonna say. No, it's not okay. But are you still gonna get suck, though? No. Pepsi. Pepsi compared to Coke. But if I'm at a Pepsi place, I'm like, well, they got Mountain Dew on the menu. Yeah. So Dr. Pepper. That makes it up. Yeah, exactly. I don't. I don't have. I'm not one of those people who have a strong dislike for Pepsi. To me, it's fine. Carbonated. Carbonated sugar water pretty much is all the same. It's delicious. Not going to hate on it. Not going to hate on it either. Yeah, I don't drink soda too much even though these days that we have the soda in the store. I have been grabbing a few diet Cokes over there and some Red Bulls, you know, same time. No, no, not at all. Double fisting. Double fisting. One energy drink a day DC and a Red Bull. Yeah. No, not getting that on this body. This is what everyone's talking about. Everything's on the table. This is what champions come to take. This is what everyone came to see.

Learn more@windows.com studentoffer while supplies last ends June 30 terms@akams.collegepc. back to some World cup talk. You know the games are about to start. We're also gonna have like shortly after that Prism World Cup's gonna come out which is gonn nuts. We have little audience here. Maybe send some autographs. World cup stars to watch. You know, obviously you have your big names being, you know, Ronaldo, Messi and Bape and the names everybody knows. But you got some other ones. You have Endrick from Brazil which I know he's picking up some steam. 19 year old, the new face of Brazil soccer Lamina Mall. Everybody knows Vinnie Jr. They call him Vinicius Jr. But Vinnie Jr. He's good for Brazil. Brazil's gonna have a good squad. Yeah, you also have, you know, Pedri, Joe Nevis from Portugal and a lot of, a lot of young stars. This is going to be a awesome tournament. It's the, the time of year where I lock in for games and try to catch up on everything and just looking forward to it and the fact that it's here. Might need a Red Bull if the games don't start until 9pm Seriously, I do have to shout out by the four locos. I got a, I got a very, very thorough list from our, from our social media team, Amelia, who is our resident, one of our resident soccer experts. So yeah, I have a lot of information about Endrick that I didn't know about. And 19 years old, seven goals and 37 appearances in Real Madrid. Then five in 16 games with Leon FC. But Brazil kind of like faded out early in the last tournament, so him and Vinnie Jr are going to need a big run. Brazil going to be one of the favorites as they always are. Vinnie Jr. Kind of also had a little bit of a downturn the last couple years. Nice uptick this season. Seems like he's back in action. But I'd be remiss. She was adamant. She's like, mention this guy as a super dark horse. Deep cut. Rio Nomoa from England. I saw the name, I didn't try to say it. 17 years old, so he's among the youngest. All the attention's gonna be on Jamal. Oh my gosh, he's 18. He's in the World Cup. He's the star of the show, which rightfully so. Like, wasn't Ian the World cup up last time? Yep. As of 15, 16 year olds. Yep. Right. So again, now being the star, this guy's kind of old. I think he's old. Yeah. 17, aged out regardless. So this is the next sort of wonderkin guy potentially. But maybe it was like a surprise addition to the team. Part of that is apparently that Thomas Tooko, the England's manager, who's got a history of like doing sort of unconventional things, taking chances on young players. So was a big like take a chance on this guy maybe. Look at his cards. He's got stuff out there. I think his most expensive card was about soccer fans are in the know because there's most expensive cards about five or six thousand dollars. So there is still. There's a market here for him, but I'm sure there's still probably some lower end stuff that you can get in on. I gotta ask you guys a, a question from like, from a common. That's not in the. No, I'm a common here commercial. Nice. On that television. Probably from YouTube. They're in our algorithm. They're paying to be in our store. So let me ask you guys this. Why do the players from Brazil, are they big fans of the movie Super Bad with the one name, you know, like the McLovin. We've got the Endricks, you got the, you know, the Vinnies. And there's no last name, is there? Does anybody know the story behind that? Well, that's got to also be kind of a like, like is it a Portuguese thing too? Because you got Ronaldo, who just goes by. It's Cristiano Ronaldo, but everybody just knows him as Ronaldo. But there is a Ronaldo from Brazil, right? There's a Ronald just. I don't know. And there's a Ronaldinho I just watched a documentary on as well. I actually don't know the answer to this. What about, what about Pele? Exactly. One day. Yeah, right. Maradona. Yeah, but Argentina, but I understand, but, but people don't necessarily refer to him as his full name. You say Maradona. You, you, you do. But I think he. These guys, it's funny because like, for usa you don't go, you know, Donovan. That's what I mean. But if you go to the Brazil, there's like, I don't know who that is. When you're building the set on Brazil, it's one name. All the guys, like there's 20 guys, they're mostly all one name. There might be a few guys that have two names, but they're all one name in there. So here you go. This comes from. There's. It's funny, there's actually. Here you go from a. From just a few days ago. Christopher Mintz, Plass fans, A Fox Sports story about this exact phenomenon. Here. This is, this is what it says. The phenomenon is mostly tied to Portuguese and Spanish speaking countries, particularly in Brazil. In Portuguese culture, naming conventions are exceptionally long, often combining multiple maternal and paternal family names. For example, Pele, born Edson Orantes do Nascimento, remains the most famous one named Soccer. Where do they get Pele out of that? But broadcasting or printing long names on a mat sheet often became impractical. To solve this, players just started using nicknames and that. As an announcer yourself, it seemed like they had some power back then. And it's just translated, they still do. I will say there's a few guys where we say, hey, what do you like? What do you want to be referred to? I'll, for example, I'll throw this out. Rod Barajas Jr. If you remember Rod Barajas from back in the big leagues, former catcher for the Diamondbacks. His son is now in the Giants organization. He was going by Junior Barajas during spring training. So we all thought, okay, Junior Baras. Great Junior Baras. But then week one, he goes, hey, can you just say, just. It wasn't like mad or anything, but he's like, just go with my full name. I want to honor my full name. That's. My dad gave me that name. So Rod Barajas Jr. Go with that. Like, all right, great. So, yeah, they do. And then the following week he came back and he's all. I need you to go back to junior. I trust. Well, maybe if you went into slots. Absolutely. Can you start saying junior again? I also remember there was a guy years ago. Do you remember Kendrick Morales of the Angels? Yes. Yeah. And for the first, like, four or five years of his career, he was Kendry Morales. Then he had, like, a breakout year. He had, like, 30 homers, and then he told all the announcers, by the way, it's Kendries. It's always been Kendry's. Everyone's pronounced. Forgot the square. I don't know what happened. That feels Mojo break. Mojo break. Right? He's like, can you say Kendrick? It's. It's never just been Kendry. Like, oh. He probably started hearing his name on SportsCenter more and was like, wait a minute. They're all saying my name wrong. So anyway, yeah, well, I'm Portuguese. I guess I'm just gonna go by Anderson. Yeah, but it's just Brazil, though. Like, if you look at the Portugal World cup roster, it's like Diego Costa. It's definitely most prominent. Spain has a few. They had some of those guys back in the day that only had one day name. Yeah. Pedri. I mean, we just from Spain. That's true. So there's a few in Spain, but, yeah, it's. It is Brazil. Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Kaka. These are all. Yeah, they're all Brazilian stars. And let us know who you guys are collecting from the sticker set. But I wanted to move on. I've got kind of a hot take, and I think I'm gonna get flame for this hot take. Maybe I won't. Okay. Watched a vintage baseball movie. I guess it's considered vintage baseball with the kids yesterday, and I realized that Rookie of the Year is better than the sandlot, so. Way better. Flick. I agree. It's got one of the greatest lines in it ever. Like the funky, Funky butt love. Funky butt loving. As someone who is. I don't. I don't dislike the sandlot. I like the sandlot, but I've always kind of thought, especially our generation sees it as, like, this untouchable masterpiece. That's what I'm saying. It's a fun movie. Rookie of the Year. I kind of agree. I agree with this thing. I mean, Daniel Stern, incredible. I forgot. Hilarious. I probably hadn't seen this because it's like. It's number three on Netflix. Kids, for whatever reason, it's got this little, you know, nostalgic, like, you know, re watchability right now, and it says it's also leaving soon, so my kids were looking for something. Watch. I'm like, you guys gotta watch this. I. I was like, I kind of vaguely remember it. I know the concept of the arm, you know, being. He throws the ball over 100 miles an hour as a kid, and he gets onto the Cub subs. And just the comedic Daniel Stern with the seeds in the mouth getting locked in rooms and just dumb comedy was amazing. Gary Busey. Yes. Who is. His name is like Chet something. Chet Rockman or something. Yeah. You wanna. You want to know something crazy? I was like, man, Daniel Stern is prime. Guess who was the director for this movie? Daniel Stern. Daniel Stern. Oh, wow. Wow. It is directorial debut. That's pretty cool. I didn't realize that. Was that after Home Alone? After Home Alone. Okay. So, yeah, I told my kids, that's the guy from Home Alone. And they're like, which one? I'm all the robber. And they're like, oh. Because, you know, hairstyle's a little different. Yeah. Doesn't have the mullet. That's a narrator from the Wonder Years. Yeah, that is. I forgot about that too. There's also Barry Bonds makes appearance in the movie. Barry Bonds is in there. So It's Ken Griffey Jr. I think. No, that's another movie. I thought so. That's. That's little. Little Big League. Yeah. Where it. The kids on the. Like, he's the owner of the Pirates. Yes, yes. That's instead of what if the kid played. It's what if the kid inherited a team. Right, right. Both fun scenarios. I think playing a little more of a fun scenario. Not a kid movie. But I. If we're talking about baseball movies, the. Like, the first Major League. Yeah. Is great. Is amazing. It's classic. Absolutely. I like how the rookie of the year really blends. Like, sandlot's great. It has a little bit baseball undertones, especially at the end with the Dodgers and stuff like that. But this, like, you see the Expos, you see the Giants. Yeah. You see Wrigley Field. You know, like, it's just like. It just feels more to baseball than the sandlot did. I think too, though, the sandlot tapped into. And I think Wyatt took off with like that generation in the 90s is. It was probably the parents of the kids are like, oh, this reminds me of when I played baseball. Because it was what the 60s is when that takes place. Late 50s. You had. You had those like, I'm not gonna. Maybe could have been Disney movies similar. Like the. The familyfriendly. Baseball movies. Outfield, Angels in the Outfield. And even, like, the sports movies. Mighty Ducks. Yeah, Mighty Ducks. Little Giants. I feel like there was a lot of those type of family friendly sports movies that came out around the same time. There was, there was. And yeah, I just watched it last night and the kids stayed up till, like, they don't have school. They stayed up till like 10:45 to watch it. And they liked it. They were laughing. They said it was better than the sandlot. And I was like my wife. We probably have watched the sandlot like 15 times with them, but we have not yet watched Rookie of the Year. And I'm like, this is an underrated flick. And then I think that the guy came on, went on to do American Pie. Thomas Ian Nicholas. I was about to say it's funny because the other day, he's in a band. He does. He's big, big into music. I was into the movie he did after. I really loved a kid in King Arthur's Court where he also is playing baseball and gets transported into medieval times. My son's really into Sword in the Stone right now. And then he got recommended. Then I went, oh, my gosh, I haven't watched this movie in years. I was. I wore this VHS out. I loved this movie. So, yeah, anyone did American Pie, like, a few years later? Okay, so he was with Barry Bond. Bobby Bonilla and Pedro Guerrero were the three MLB stars that were in Rookie of the Year. Barry Bonds. Bobby Bonilla was probably a package deal at the time, being on the Pirates. Pedro Guerrero was probably on the Cardinals at that point. But I also believe he was a Dodger. He might have been on the Expos on that one. Oh, oh, yeah. I believe he might have been on the Expos too, because they. When they first started, it was the Cubs playing the Expos in the beginning of the movie. So. But. And then. Oh, and the announcer is John Candy, right? Yes, yes. John the great John Candy. The great. The late, great John Candy. And then the manager from the Cubs would say, and I didn't pick up on this as a kid because the. The kid's name in the movie is Rowan Gardner. Rowan Gardner. So it would be like Rowan Tussin or he'd be like Rowan Blobin. And like, every time he would say his name, it would be WR Story time. It's just like little comedy like that. That, like, that was probably Daniel Stern that, like, put that in there, you know, it's amazing. We need to bring back more sports movies with active athletes. I don't think we have enough. And Happy Gilmore, too, kind of scratch that itch. Yeah. You had again, little giants that had. Yeah. Ed o' Neill and Rick Moranis, I believe. Yes. That also had, like, a bunch of current NFL. I think it had, like, Ev. Emmett Smith was in it. I think Bruce Smith was in it. It had tons of current players. Yeah. I don't feel like there's as many out there anymore. Like I said, Happy Gilmore last year did that. Every golfer was in it. It felt like they don't make. They don't just don't make sports. They don't make kids sports movies. They tried with the goat. I mean, it was okay. I liked goat. Goat was fun. It was okay. Steph Curry was a voice in it. He was. Yeah, he was the. That was animated. It was animated. I'm talking about, like, actual live action movie. Maybe Space Jam 2 just killed it for everything. Yeah. Space Junction was rough. And I was so sure. I'm like, oh, LeBron James, he's a better actor than Michael Jordan. This will be better, right? No, so much worse. So much worse. Well, you know, we mentioned this at the top of the show. We've got, you know, we're knee deep in the NBA Finals. And actually, before we go into that, I do want to tell you guys about series two code. So I forgot to mention that at the top of the show because I was talking about ebay live. But we have series two baseball going off@mojobreak.com if you guys use code zero series two series. And then the number 210 off all of those baseball breaks over at mojo break.com only 50 total coupons. So if you're hanging on this late in the podcast, you're gonna benefit, so use that code. But I wanted to get into this Wemby talk and then also talk about the Stanley Cup Finals. Man, I think Wemby saved people a lot of money last night because the difference between 30 to 21 is a big difference in the legacy of his prices right now. And it was a gritty game. I mean, it. It seemed like I was talking to Dan earlier off, off air, and it seemed like the spurs were really had to grind out and physically win this game. They didn't look as good as the Knicks. I think the Knicks looked better, but it was just a gutty, gritty game that the spurs had to play to get this to 2:1 and made it a series. Cause 3:0 is like, oh, the roof is falling, Wemby. Now it's like, well, now we Got a series. Yeah. Yeah. He looked, he looked like he stepped up. He looked the part of a. He knew that, how important it was. Great game, incredible environment. Can't wait to watch game. Game four. I hope it's gonna be a good series. It was gonna be like a sweep. So I get it's New York, it's Madison Square Garden, but I feel like they made so much about celebrity row. They did. Like, I, I feel like there was, there was the game. It was a wild celebrity, bro. Let's be honest. But there, there's the game, which is the. I, the most important thing that everybody should be focusing on, but the fact that they're just celebrity rows like Larry David. Like, I mean, the list goes on and on and on. Another one. And you just. I was like, it, it's kind of taken away from the game. I will say I was saying this. I think the New York celebrity row more entertaining than the LA celebrity row. Other than, like, Jack Nicholson, obviously. He's a mainstay. But like, I, I, I'll take Nick. Celebrity row over Lakers. Why is Madison Square Garden known as the mecca of basketball? Or why? I think one, it's one of the oldest at this point. If not. So it's got like that Wrigley Field kind of vibe. Yeah. And I think New York in general, seen as the mecca of basketball, street basketball, where it really takes off and becomes something totally different than what we, you know, there was a flair and a style that was taken into the NBA years later, Rucker park, all that's, you know, all that legendary stuff. When I think of basketball, when I, and I'm a West coast basketball fan, so obviously I'm. You can flame me all you want. I'm maybe a little bit biased when I think of basketball at its peak. I think of the Celtics on that side of town. I think the Lakers would be obviously more west coast biased. But like Bill Russell. Bill Russell won 10 championships. You don't think of the Bulls. You got the Bulls too. But I think legacy. I mean, the, the Celtics have done it again, like, again and again throughout decades. And, and, you know, you, you got. Granted, there wasn't as many NBA teams when Russell was doing this, but Russell has 10 rings. I mean, we were beating the Lakers. I do agree with Doug. I, I think if, like, if you want to basically call this like, the mecca of basketball, I would say Boston Garden. Like, I know it's not called Boston Garden, TD Garden, but it's forever. I mean, just the, the look of the floor, like the way it looks, Madison Square Garden is currently the oldest active NBA arena by about 32. By. By 22 years. 1968. And then the next oldest is the Target center in Minnesota. Can you believe that? 1990. Geez. Yeah. So. So where the Celtics championships were being won is not where it's at. No. No, it was not. Well, it's the Garden, but it's not the Garden. You know, it's like. Like same thing. Like the Forum's not around anymore, you know, or the Forum's around, but it's not. It's there. They're not playing basketball. It's in the parking lot. Are they gonna tear it down, by the way? It's a. It's a music venue. They actually revamped it and it's. It's a music venue. Even though it's literally in the same parking lot as Into a dome, right? No, it's in the same parking lot as SoFi. Oh, right. But into a dome's not the Uber pickup and drop off. Sure. But into a dome is like across, isn't it? Close into it is. I've never been in that area. Cross. So it's a. It. So into it dome is right on the main street. Okay. Sofi is where Hollywood park used to be. So it's basically across the street and then another two blocks. Okay. So it's kind of. I would say, if you were to leave Sofi and walk to it. Intuit Dome, 15 minute walk. Yeah. From door to door. Okay. Maybe 20 minutes. Still feels crazy to have two major venues. The Forum is in the parking lot of sofi. I guess. Props to the. Whoever made the Madison Square Garden. They had the foresight that this is going to still last. Yeah. Right. They built it within the NBA expansion in mind, like the global expansion. I'm assuming there's been massive amounts of upgrades. Oh, for sure. Because it's never. It's. It's at a point now where it will never go away. It's just too much of a legacy. And then on top of all of, like, obviously the Knicks and the Rangers and then you've got like Muhammad Ali fought there, you know, like, there's so much legacy in that spot that I just can't imagine it would ever go away. Yeah. And they also built Barclays. It's also like, there is a new arena if you really want to go to kind of. It's also kind of the mecca of, like, comedy. Seems like when you sell out msg, Madison Square Garden, like, you. You made it. Yeah. Because Andrew Dice Clay. It was big news. When he's playing the God. He's playing the God. Actually, I think. I think it was Andrew Dice Clay and I'm, I'm throwing darts here. Andrew Dice Clay, I think, was the first comedian to ever sell out Madison Square Garden. I do believe the second was Dane Cook. That's crazy. That is wild. Here. You know what? Look at this. I just found it and I. And I know Kevin Hart has probably done it. Yeah, Andrew Dice Clay. Andrew Dice Clay was the first and then it took 16 years. And Dane Cook. Wow, that's a haul. Then. Then it's quite a run. Then you get Chris Rock, Eddie Izzard, Kevin Hart, Aziz Ansari and Russell Peters. Louis ck. Kevin Hart again, Gabriel Iglesias, Bill Burr, Jim Gaffigan, Louis CK again, Amy Schumer, the impractical Jokers, Bill Bergen, Sebastian Maniscalco, Trevor Noah, Joe Rogan, Sebastian Manscalco again, John Mulaney. List goes on. Now it's become a little more common to get. Yeah, yeah, the Dice and then Dane Cook. That's great. That is wild. A 16 year gap is crazy. That's nuts. Yeah, there was. I mean, it was comedy. Just. Did it go. Did it lose popularity? I mean, who, who in between that era could have went in there? I just don't think it was viewed as like Robin Williams, George Lopez was. I don't think it was viewed as like a stadium thing. Like, Andrew Dice Clay brought like a different vibe to comedy, where it was like a big raucous crowd and people would chant some of the songs and it was like almost like a comedy singing event. And even though Dane Cook, comedically, not really the same as Andrew Dice Clay, like the sort of raucous energy is very. I mean, yeah, yeah, he. I mean, his whole stage set up too. He, he was one of those computer comedians that I, I feel like overnight just completely blew up. It went from being like, I mean, probably playing like the Comedy Store type of places to playing Madison Square Garden in a span of probably a year. Yep. And he was, he was kind of finally one of those comedians that like the, the ladies liked. Right. He had Dice Clay. I'm sure there was a few of them, but it was mostly like, you know, it's a dude, you know, Like, I don't know if the demographic was the lady 80s with the dice. No, no, no. Definitely not. No. But with the Dane Cook, it was. You could start seeing some, some more, you know, younger females. I also, I also feel that, like, Dane Cook's Demographic was just a younger comedy fan. Yeah. Like, I. It feels like that was like. That was like, when he was popular, it was like 18 to, like, 26. Speaking of the Garden, we've got Wemby back at the Garden as we listen to this tomorrow, right? Yes. Because we got the Stanley cup finals Tonight, the Game 4 in Madison Square Garden tomorrow. I wanted to kind of point out something that I've been saying and I think Dan was echoing here. If we bring up this graph of this Wemby silver, this is what I tell people when they're like, well, if he wins the finals, it's going to go up. Look at this. It peaked June 1st, June 2nd. And you could see that peak already, like, starting to form right after the last series, May 30th. So it's. Yeah, obviously the losses have caused it to go down a little bit, but, like, you're almost too late. If you're buying his cards or any player's cards when that championship is happening, you're too late. People we. We were talking about it leading into the finals feel like we've talked about Wemby a lot in, like, the last month. He's the guy. The finals victory and MVP was already baked in. Like, it was already baked in. It was. And I mean, it's still incredible that a current price of a PSA 10 silver 2023 prism with black curtains is at $3,000. Because it. If he wins, which I still believe the spurs are going to win the championship, and I do believe that he's going to be the mvp. But if you look at that graph, it's the. The peak. What. What Was that peak? June 1st. June 2nd. June 1st for June 3rd. Excuse me. And those are only a couple sales afterwards. So I. You could really see the biggest jump from May 28 to May 30. But if I buy. If I buy right now and he does win MVP and the finals, do you think it gets back up to that. That peak? I. I doubt it does. I doubt it does because you're gonna have a lot more inventory purchasing available. Because there is, once it happens, all these guys that have been holding gonna all put up their stuff. So now there's 5,000 of these type of cards that are up there to buy that. You're competing against all of these rivers right now. People are. There's a lot of people holding. So that's why I think it's peaked. I think you. If you are on the fence and you're thinking about, I buy, do I sell? I think you sell right now. Yeah. And if you're a believer in Wimy, give it two to three months after the finals and it cools down. It's going to cool down now. Is it going to go back to where it was at the beginning of the year? No, but it. It won't be even close to what you're looking at in the last three months. I still think a defensive player of the year and an MVP combo next year vaulted. I think there's still the potential that it can get bigger. I really do. He's got to win those awards. He's got to keep it going. I think I was telling. I was having a conversation with Doug earlier. I think the spurs needed to get one win, put that doubt in the Knicks head because they had gone like what, 13 games, incredibly confident losing. I think they were just running on just pure confidence at this point, like we can't be knocked off. And frankly, the first two games, that one win, I actually think the spurs are going to blow them out by. Well, I could game. It's. It's hard because you look at the two teams now that you've been watching the series for three games like myself, and you're like, you've got experience on the Knicks. You've got Towns has been the league for 10 years. You've got Brunson in the league for eight years. You got freaking Jordan Clarkson, Common off the bench. I think he's played for 20 years. Josh Hart. Josh Hart. Landry, Landry, Shannon. You got all this experience and then you have the raw talent, ability without experience on the other side with Castle, Harper, Wemby. Yeah, of course. Like, Vesel's there and they've got, you know, what's the center that comes in Cornet. He's got. Darren Fox is a vet. It's not, it's not champagne, champagne, champagne. Penny. Yeah, yeah. It's so you. You've got like the raw ability that's better is on the spurs, but the experience level in bigger games and knowing their teammates is on the next side. Oh, man, there they have us. There's a secret weapon over there in San Antonio. I don't know if you saw him on the bench talking about championship experience. HB Harry Barnes. Harrison Barnes. Harrison Barnes. Is that. You want to go on his thing. You want a guy, a guy who, who's been there. How many rings is he gon have if he wins another one here? Like 14. Did he win with. With somebody else? There was one. He won without the Warriors. I think he did win one with the warriors just hanging out. I could be. I could be completely. He does look like the grizzled vet, though, for sure. And he's kind of got a baby face, but he. He's. He. Yeah. Harry Barnes. No, this would. This would be his. This would be his third. Yeah, he got two, I think, with us. And left, right. He got two. No, I'm sorry. You only got one. Okay. Because he left after the 1516 season isn't the reason why we lost one. The reason why he's not. Draymond got suspended. There's a reason why he's not out there playing in clutch games. I mean, he was in Dallas for two years. He was in sack. Oh. Oh. So he went a long time. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. He was on that. He was on that Dallas team That went to one right with Luca. No, he left in 2019. Yeah, he left. He was there for his rookie year. That was it. Yeah. Was he on the King for a long time? Yeah, for a long time. Some would say the greatest king ever to do it. Well, some might say that. Some might. Let me get. Let me get Alex. Chris Weber and Harrison Barnes. That's it. Chris Weber, Mike Bibby, Vlady Divach and Harrison. Harrison Barnes. That's a Mount Rushmore. Speaking of, like, we're going all over the place, but this is. You know, the women's college softball World Series just ended with a win from the Texas Longhorns. But. But they were playing Texas Tech and the best of three, and our boy Jason Williams, his daughter is like the best player on Texas Tech. Yes. Smashing home runs. Like, Jason Williams is like, just fanboying out, throwing like. Like waving the towel. And I kind of wanted them to win for the sake of Jason Williams, but yeah, his. His daughter Mia is an absolute baller. Was he making an appearance there? Yeah, yeah, he was. Oh, I don't know. Yeah, they didn't probably pay him enough, but could only use 30 second clips. Yeah. To talk into a microphone. It goes up dramatically. Yeah, right. Goes up dramatically according to his age. Agent there. But yeah, no, yeah, it was kind of cool to see. We brought up the Sacramento talk, and he's a. Obviously a Sacramento legend in. Jason Williams also one of the greatest. One of the greatest kings. Absolutely. Greatest king to ever do it. Yeah, a hundred percent. So, yeah, we'll see what happens. And then on the other side with hockey, I mean, we've got another, like, just crazy, crazy series. And as. As we mentioned earlier in the show, we're on ebay live. Actually right now as we're filming this, we're doing hockey breaks of extended series ingrained. So head on over to ebay live and bookmark those shows. We're just looking at some of the graphs for looking at some of the players that would most benefit from a, from a Stanley Cup. There's too many Dan Cups going on Stanley cup final and I think it's gotta be Mitch Marner. I think Mitch, Mitch Marner is the player that is out there on all both between the Hurricanes and the Vegas Knights that has the most kind of gain in the card market. And Cody has a pristine 10 sale of a young guns for Mitch Marner. Yeah, last sold 791. $791 and 5 cents. That's the highest sale since 2022. Not quite the highest. There's just a few that went over a thousand in 2021 and around then. But still clearly so close to a black label. Yeah, very, very close. Yeah. Yeah. But still there, there's. He's. He's probably the one who stood the benefit the most. It's tough with Vegas because it's a team made up of vets of guys who made it with other team who, who started out with other teams. So there's not a lot of guys there that you're like, ah, this is the guy to build around that. This who's been the star here for years and years. But yeah, Martin is the one who stands to benefit the most. I'm not happy about. I, I don't. I. Look, his market is just not there. We, we talk, we talk about this. I, I don't know. Being a Sharks fan, I get it. But, but why would you root against the Vegas Golden Knights? Because they need to wait their turn. When you have. We have the greatness here. I've been sitting here for almost 40 years with nothing. You, you have wait your turn. But don't you want to be happy for Tomas Hurdle? No, absolutely not. I don't want to be happy for him. Maybe like, honestly, I mean it's the closest thing we're probably going to get to a Stanley Cup. I mean granted, like, yeah, we're on the right path, but I like to see the former Sharks players just not there. Get. I don't care where. I don't want to see it there because it's three and three Stanley cup appearances in nine years. But we're crying. And what if you're a Maple Leafs fan, right? I mean that's. And you're Watching Mitch Marner do what he said. This is also. What I'm saying is this is like Jack Eichel, he started in Buffalo. You look at it and go, okay, like, maybe the Maple Leafs organization was holding back Mitch Marner. You'd also say the same thing. Maybe the Sharks organization was holding back Tomas. I'm just saying you've got Eichel, you've got Martyr, you've got Hurl, you got three big fixtures on this team. You've got the Buffalo fan base that's watching going, oh, God, we're gonna watch this guy when it's cup here. You're gonna watch the. The Maple Leafs fan base and the Sharks fan base. These are three of the most tortured fan bases in all of hockey. And they're all gonna watch their guys winning in Vegas. Hurdle was a fan favorite. He wasn't just a player that showed up and was on the Sharks for a couple years. He was like a fan favorite of that team. So why would you not want to see him win? A little part you want to say, you want to see. I just don't want to see the Knights win again. They are just one in 2023. They are a, again, Sharks fan, but they are, in my opinion, a more likable team than the Carolina Hurricanes. No, Carolina won in 2006, by the way. So 20 years. 20 years for them. So I'm just reading this, right? This is probably a dumb question, but. So the Florida Panthers, did they go to three straight finals because they lost to the Vegas Knights that year? Did they go 23, 24 and 25? Five? No, they won two back to back. Yeah, no, they went to. They went. They went to three. That's incredible. Yeah, that's something that's not even. Like if that Lightning did that as well. If that. If that was a football team, we would. So we would still be talking about it. Like, that's the incredible thing about what we do. We talk about the. I feel like we talk about the Bills run all constantly. Well, the Bills four straight. But they lost four straight. But like the Chiefs. Yeah. Obviously every. Every other year or consecutive years getting into the super bowl and Patrick Mahomes winning some. Which I don't really remember those ones, but he did win some. Yeah, sorry. The Lightning went to back to back and won back to back in 1920, 20, 21. So not. Not three in a row. Panthers did three in a row. One back to back. They. They went to three in a row and won two. The last two of those. Yes. That's incredible. Yeah. So. But we're gonna have somebody that's not the Lightning or the Panthers win this year. So we'll see. I hated that that game ended in an own goal after. That was extravaganza. But we'll see what happens tonight. Night. That was rough. That was, that was a tough way to end that game. But. Commercial's on again. Yeah. Another whatnot commercial. The big W. The big. In the shop. In the shop. What is happening? I'd like to take time to go check out our whatnot feed over on Whatnot. We're doing some of the best releases like Bowman's best, you know, tops definitive over on the whatnot. It's a giant QR code. Well, they're gonna know where to find. Look, they can just go over to Mojo break when they're in there. So they're gonna know where to find us. And I know we're. This podcast has gone pretty long today because we have a lot to talk about, but I, I, we do. We do. I wanted to just briefly touch on some V Friends, which is releasing tomorrow, Topps chrome V Friends, second installment of V Friends from 2025 edition. Now we have the 2026. And you know, they've, they've posted around some celebrity signers like Mr. Beast, Levy, Dunn, Jake, Paul, and I think there's definitely gonna be some new and exciting chases. I know Gary has this wine glass that has different colors. That's like a new addition this year, I believe the Erupt, which is the Kaboom design, has the very, very, very, very lucky black cat this year, which it didn't have last year. And I think there's a, a hundred thousand dollar bounty on that card. Wow. You know that Gary's willing to pay for that card. And it's the rep last year had. Like, I think I don't want to speak out of, like, not knowing knowledge because I did open a lot of that last year. But he didn't use all the characters in the Erupt. A lot of your favorites are coming back and it's going to be interesting to see if this continues to progress and build his loyal fan base. Because V Friends, we, we do V Friends. But I feel like you have to be a vee breaker to break Vee Friends. Like, you have to like, like literally only do that and maybe something else. Right. Like, they have such a devout community that really supports the brand and buys all the shirts. I know for me, I've got the Decisive Duck 555 shirt. I've got a couple decisive duck cards. I've got a, the, the, the robot shirt as well. And you know, I dabble into some V friends. But do we think that this will continue to, you know, be as hyped and as collectible as the prior year? Year? I, I'm very curious to see the market this year because I think there was obviously the fun of like this is something totally new, totally different, very unique. I thought the designs looked great. I thought the sps. I think some of the bigger things in this is that the SP chases I think are legitimately very cool. The designs look great. The erupt designs, getting the original artists who did kabooms last year, I don't know if they're doing in this year but. But yeah, I thought that was such an awesome value add last year. And this is coming from someone who was a massive skeptic of this product. I remember. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. You had some choice words I did on the drawings though on the series one. Oh yeah. Right now that it's like fully fleshed out and you're like, you can kind of see the vision now you're a fan. He went from storyboarding to. Right. Full on fledged. He was, he provided a proof of concept. My thing is that as long as it can keeps on being innovated every year I, at some point I feel like it has to go similar to what Pokemon does. Like they, they release products, but maybe they pull certain characters out. Yes. And make. And he's introducing new ones. Yeah. So I think, I think you gotta like kind of retire some, some characters and add new ones and keep it, keep it fresh. And then you just keep it fresh. Obviously with like the new content, the new signers, the new parallels and inserts and stuff like that, I think you can make it work. I'm just curious, I'm curious if you do this set every single year in year five, year six, year seven, is it still super popular and collectible? Which is funny because that's like the idea that's. I feel like the thing we talk about with Disney stuff. Yeah. But even, but at least Disney has 100 years of legacy behind it and some of the most popular characters immediately. And we, we said it again and Disney Chrome is coming out I believe next week. And they didn't just recycle what they did the previous year. Right. There's a whole new crop of subjects and they, they went towards some of the television aspect of Disney. So I think if you keep on innovating it and just not rinse and repeat, do the same thing every year. With these ips, I think you can, you can keep on building that momentum. And these cards do spread positivity. Each one of these characters, like, really has a positive message that it's, you know, really purveying to. If a kid's involved or, you know, if you want this to be your mantra in life, there's a lot of just positivity being spread by it, which I love. And I'm actually anxious to rip a box. Hopefully they're not all spoken for, so I want to rip one. But these are very. But they were hot around here at the offices last year, if you remember that. The first times I remember. I mean, almost every employee was like, I'll give it a shot. Why not? It was fun. It was. We all, we all, we all had a good time with it. We can end off on this. This, this Shay Gilgis Alexander logo, man. Which it hasn't been pulled yet. Right? It's just more of a hypothetical. No, it's the redemption that got pulled and it sold for over a million dollars. The redemption card itself sold for over a million dollars, which again, I think we talked about it a couple weeks ago. Where was it sold? Sold on. I'd have to double check, but yeah, I, I saw it thrown around everywhere that the SGA got sold. Let me double check exactly where that got sold. I bet I know. Well, yeah, you're. You're probably right. Yeah, it sold for one. Well, it's on the. On golden. It was sold on golden. Sold on Golden. 1,061,400. But no. So, yeah, just a, just a shade under $1.1 million, which again, we kind of talked about. Like, I think I'm almost more interested to know what's the first version of this card that doesn't sell for a million dollars. And I'm not talking like the defensive player of the years or the rookies of the year, like the MVP gold logo shield. What is the first one that doesn't reach that mark? Cause they're all at that mark right now. The, the, the bases. This is the, this is the lowest one so far and it's still topped a million dollars. Well, they have, have. They didn't. They haven't announced the MVP yet, right? For mb? No, they did. Shit, is it shade again? So back to back. So it'll be a back to back one, which you could say, oh, well, now the value is he's a back to back mvp. This is the one acknowledging that. So obviously it's a million dollars. I was gonna go, so it's worth. So now there's two of them. Is it worth half or it's worth. Or again, is it worth double? I don't know. Or is it worth double, Right? I don't know. Flip a coin, right? I wonder what that conversation was because, you know, know, you know, we're industry, you know, watchers and we hear all this news and we discuss it on this show every day. And I know most of you guys are casually listening and you don't keep up with everything that happens, but you know, a lot of these big cards from tops have been on Fanatics Collect to the point where Ken golden himself made videos about this kind of stuff saying, hey, golden has a proven track record on these cards. Like we need to get a chance to get these cards on golden and he's missed out on a lot of them. The Paul Skeens he's missed out on on the web and Yama. Was it Web and Yama 5.1 million. But that wasn't, that wasn't. That was a private sale brokered by Fanatics Collect. Okay, so Fanatics has been stacking. Fanatics collective been stacking up high number sales of cards from their product. I wonder if he got this call and he just literally got in a private jet flew out. He's just like, I'm gonna take it to dinner. You're gonna be on Golden Season 3. I was about to say check out the next season. I'm gonna have Logan Paul call you. We're gonna, you know, we're gonna to, you know, I'm going to call up. Barry Bonds is going to give you a private message. Like, I need to get this card in my auction. And props to Ken for making the deal happen. Yeah, this is the, it's a huge card. It's the first of its kind. Right? Like, but it was just the redemption. It's just the redemption is not the live card in auto is not that. Why wouldn't somebody redeem it? I don't know. Maybe it's not signed yet. Speaking. I just saw two though. But you got to figure like, like if the redemption goes for 1.1 million, the live card has to sell for more. And maybe that's the play for somebody that's got, you know, just a million dollars lying in. 1.1, 1.1 million just burning a hole in your pocket. Kind of in the same vein. I don't know if you guys saw just before we went live today. I mean, we're talking a lot about him on the baseball podcast. Minutaka Murakami. His Chrome Black Super Fractor Auto, Just the Redemption, just sold for $74,000. Geez. His market's gonna be. His Chrome stuff is gonna be off the charts insane is some of the Bowman stuff. I'm sure it's gonna be wild. So keep an eye out for Minotaka Murakami. His market is just ridiculous right now. All right, guys, and that's what we got for you this week on the Hype.
