A
This is what I said Panini should do to get the final to fanatics. They should have printed so many cards in the last two years and just flooded the market with Panini stuff. And then you're like, all right, fanatics, here you go. I think the reason why they couldn't do it is because there's not enough printers that can print the quality of what it takes to do sports cards. And I think they ran into it. And fanatics is smart. I know they bought at least one of those printers and that's kind of controlling a lot of it. It's going to be the future of car card shops. And the future is going to start with ours. We're going to have the kiosk where we scan all the cards in. We're going to have some technology in there. But more than anything, it's the ability to then have your e commerce site go bigger. If I'm able to put a thousand cards onto my Shopify account and I could share that immediately, now I'm making more money.

Welcome to the trading cards and collectibles podcast on the Radcast Network. From chasing grails to calling bluffs and going inside the hobby, are you ready to collect? Let's get at it. Here is your host, Ryan Alford. What's up, guys? Here we are, Ryan and Brian, here for trading cards and collectibles. I can't sound as cool as our announcer, Brian, but you know I'll do my best.
- [01:19]
A
Well, you can't be great at everything.
- [01:22]
B
I could get into that sports voice or that main stage voice. Coming to the main stage better than.
- [01:29]
A
I am for sure.
- [01:33]
B
What's up, brother? Hey.
- [01:34]
A
Hey.
- [01:34]
B
It's been a good week. My boys won Monday night. We got some good news on T. Lawrence. We got all kinds of good stuff.
- [01:41]
A
Yeah, that was. I can't say that I, I, the Chiefs losing bothers me. I actually revel in it. So. I was a big Jaguars fan, and you know what ruined it for me? The State Farm commercials.
- [01:55]
B
Oh.
- [01:58]
A
They threw it down our throat and I was like, I'm so sick of this. So I'm, I'm kind of a hater.
- [02:03]
B
I guess, kind of the Cowboys of, you know, of the old or whatever. You know, I'm a Yankees fan, so I'm not. Let people say, well, they're the Yankees of football. Well, whatever. You know, I lived in New York, so. But the. Yeah, it's kind of over. They say what I say. Oversaturation. Overplayed.
- [02:21]
A
Yeah. Yeah.
- [02:23]
B
You know, if this is there Ever been anything more? All the popular things all together. Taylor Swift, most popular artist on the planet. No matter how we feel about her. I don't hate on her, but she's not my favorite. But just not my favorite. Don't hate on her. I respect what she's done, but it's like, geez, oh, like this is the Cowboys, the Yankees and inserts all combined into one. Yeah.
- [02:49]
A
Do you think the NFL is psyched that Taylor Swift is a.
- [02:56]
B
Are you kidding? Yeah. That's free publicity, man. It's called borrowed. That is the highest example of borrowed interest. That's what borrowed interest, look it up. It's like when something else you, you, you kind of mingle with to kind of get some of their shade. That's popular. Typically that's the most that you could get. The impressions that she accidentally gets is more than most people.
- [03:19]
A
Yeah, exactly.
- [03:22]
B
It's crazy, man. Collectibles show is where you'll find all of the channels and learn more about what we're doing and ultimately, hey, we want to hear from you. You do case hits at collectibles show. I want you to send in your favorite pulls of the week. And here's the difference. This isn't about just value. Hey, we want to see some ten thousand dollar hits. Had a couple of those myself a few months back. But it's not just about the value. It's about what you're collecting, what means something to you. Share a story, share a video of you holding up the card that you hit last week that was your favorite player and you nailed it. So case hits, collectibles show, send in those videos. I want to know the stories. We're going to bring them to life here on the show. We're going to do a segment each week once we get rolling and get some videos in where we share that on the show with us. We want to feature you on collectibles show. You know, you've got some data. Some of the trending players and you know, some have already teased who's the big hitters this week.
- [04:19]
A
Well, there's the one for mentioned. We got Trevor Lawrence up about 53%. Then we got Baker Mayfield up 27%. But the winner is Sam Darnold. Sam Darnold is 2018 optic. Don Ross red and yellow PSA 10 sold for $68 on September 27th. And the last comp was 7th of October for $168.
- [04:50]
B
Wow. You got some cards with you today, don't you?
- [04:53]
A
I do the show and tell. I'm going to show and tell something. The first one, I'm just gonna. This is my favorite card of all time.
- [05:02]
B
Yeah.
- [05:04]
A
Mother's Day patch.
- [05:07]
B
Look at that patch. Like a perfect corner of the logo or. Yes.
- [05:13]
A
And then it's a PSA 10, so it's a pop one. So I'm, I, I'm a big Otani fan. But the next one, I'm gonna throw up there. I have an idea. Oh yeah. So it's the Ellie Dana Cruz rip cart. I will rip this. If I get enough likes or comments, I will rip it and I will I'll do live here.
- [05:45]
B
It's right now. What's it worth? Unripped?
- [05:50]
A
300 bucks. I saw.
- [05:52]
B
Yeah. So that's like taking three hundies and essentially because it could be, I don't know. I, I did one of those once, Brian, and it took me you bringing it up and reminded like I remember doing it with the kids. They're like ribbon. It wasn't 300, but it was, it was probably like a 80 to 100 card. And I think we got like, you know, Bozo the Brown, you know, common. It was not good. It wasn't a good, good term.
- [06:22]
A
Well, if this is like, if the wax that exists today, it has any reason, like a 300 box of wax will. You'll yield 80 bucks tops. And so this is probably a loser by 31st by default.
- [06:42]
B
What's the upside? What could it be?
- [06:45]
A
I know I try to figure that out because it is numbered out of a hundred, I think. So I was trying to go online and figure out like which ones hit the secondary market, but I'm not really.
- [06:55]
B
Sure what's happening or like on this, we'll put it, we'll have it up on Ludox social media and you'll, you can help determine we get if we rip it next week or hey, we can even take longer if we need to. We'll. We'll extend it out. Just keep liking, liking and sharing. And if you want to see it ripped, we'll rip it. The I, I kind of do, but I don't, you know, like, yeah, I kind of have a saver.
- [07:25]
A
I like to save and it bothers me to open it up, but you know, for our audience, you know, I'll go places that I'm not super comfortable with.
- [07:37]
B
Yes. Rip it or zip it.
- [07:39]
A
How about your hankies, dude?
- [07:42]
B
Yeah. How about them Yankees? You know, it's just, it's just October, man. This is what we do.
- [07:48]
A
That was. Well, if they were really doing it well, they're down a game, so. But there's some offense in that, in that series. It's. It's almost like a opposite of what playoff baseball typically is.
- [08:00]
B
The Blue Jays are ridiculous. I mean, I don't know exactly how that all came. You know, I can't say I followed, like, their. Their trajectory, but, like, all season and then now, I mean, it's just like, explosion.
- [08:14]
A
Yeah. And then the Chicago Cubs down, down two games. Can't say that bothers me a lot, but I was at a bar on Saturday with my wife, and the first inning, Cubs hit a solo home run. The whole bar is going crazy. And then I think I was the only one in the bar that was, like, rooting for the brewers, and they just crushed them. I mean, it was like a soul crush. But the playoffs are awesome. I love watching the playoffs. We got four games on today. On Wednesday.
- [08:48]
B
I don't watch much during the regular season with baseball. You know, I'll go to a game or two. I love going to games, but, like, if I have time or I'm in a city where, you know, we don't have one here in. In G. Vegas, South Carolina. But if I get a city that's got one to go to a day game or night game, I'm in. But, yeah, during the regular city, I don't watch a lot on TV.
- [09:09]
A
We don't have that much time. I mean, there's 162 games. I mean, it's like watching live breaks. I mean, how many people can honestly watch live breaks with that much time that don't live in the basement or are just, like, degenerate gamblers?
- [09:21]
B
Yes. I know we might have some of those. So let us know how you find time for it, if you're listening. All right, so this. We're creeping into this. And you and I actually haven't talked about this on the show, but I'm curious. It's. Tops has taken over the world. Tops and fanatics with these licenses officially, you know, some of the last sets for panini with NBA have coming on. Got football closely coming.
- [09:58]
A
First.
- [09:59]
B
We'll talk about a few. A few news line items. But just in general, what's your opinion on all this? Like, and good, bad for the hobby. Happy, sad, indifferent.
- [10:11]
A
I mean, the. The public is, like, hates it, right? Because this industry, people hate every change. I mean, like, when they went from freaking legal pads to, like, people putting their comps on Excel spreadsheet, probably had to, like, turn over, you know, 50% of this industry. So I think in general, no matter what happens in this industry, if there's change, people don't like it. I am the opposite there. I think that there's nostalgia to this. We talked about my card shop with all those cards. I mean tops Finest, you know, all these older, older sets. I mean now it comes back full, full circle for me and, and I really like what they're doing. I mean I think it's, it's, it's good. I think they care about it enough to. But I think the solve they have Ryan is it's just about the ROI of this stuff. And like are we gonna. Is fanatics and tops going to be able to sustain this, this valuation that's enormous valuation that the collect has. Are they going to be able to. To sell enough of this wax where they don't force it down the live streamers throat? And what if they take the live streamers out now you got like real consumers that are smart that will say you know what, it's not worth it on the wax. I'm going to syncless and you see it in the repack.
- [11:34]
B
Yep.
- [11:35]
A
What do you think?
- [11:37]
B
I. I think a lot of the same as far as like change and style. Like I like change. Yeah. We're both innovators, you know, like so it's that hey, I like see it. Let's all where's this going? You know, like okay, excited like change y then I don't know, I'm not so much. I just feel like they should have made a deal happen. Like, like then consumers don't even have to know necessarily. Like let's just say you might know and there people bitching about something. But top spies, you know, fax buys, you know, Panini, all those every then everything would be licensed I think right. Like that's a magical world like where you'd have all the best in favorites in Tops and Donruss and in Optic and you know like. But the thought of optic football with no logos just makes me sad. I mean you know, like the thought of a downtown like without a logo. Oh man. Like I'm like, you know, because these are the things I'm, I'm a year back into the hobby. So like I've been indoctrinated the last year after taking a little hiatus getting back with the boys. So I'm knee deep in the new stuff and you know I've got Earl, you know it's only year end but nostalgia for like downtown, the 100 downtowns I've bought and sold the last year and thinking that those aren't going to have, you know, the variation. And, you know, Tops does a good job. I. I've talked about it. I respect the hell out of Michael Rubin and everything they're doing. I got no problem with like them. I just kind of wish they had figured that out. And then you'd have them all winning.
- [13:16]
A
There's a story behind it. Yeah, there's a story behind it.
- [13:22]
B
Yeah. Do we want to talk about that?
- [13:24]
A
I know a little bit about it.
- [13:25]
B
But I'm sure you do. Do you wanna. I know. I know about this much. Sometimes you probably know about that much.
- [13:32]
A
So Panini should come out with like, instead of downtown, like Suburban, you just have like strip malls and gas stations behind.
- [13:41]
B
Suburban. The new. The newest card, parallel Suburban brought to you by Tops Robotics. You know, like. I don't know. It does. It is funny. Like the variations. I mean, you know, you got midnight and cosmic and dynamite and, you know, it's hard to keep up. There's so many and it's fun.
- [14:02]
A
I enjoy.
- [14:03]
B
We ripped all of them. I've got. I got kind of like the best of. I'm still saving for like a live stream that hopefully, you know, one of these players steps up and, you know, and I like.
- [14:13]
A
I like the parallels because that's. That's the tech that we built. Right. So, yeah, let's get in the parallels and having more parallels out there. I'm fine with that. We just talk into our. Into the model and we get it. So. But it was. I did not like it in the beginning.
- [14:31]
B
Yeah. But I think it's going to be interesting how it plays out. I mean, I saw some of the. I. I liked the newest top stuff. I saw that had the. It was on one hand. Like I said, it's going be weird seeing Prism or downtown without logos. Seeing Tops basketball. I think I saw a preview of some of those cards with the logos back. I'm like, that looks a lot better. You know, I'm sorry, you. You just can't. It's not the same. Like, you know, when. When Wimy's on the card, like dunking on somebody and his logos, it looks like he's in a wreck gym like at the Y. It's like, that's just a blue outfit. You know, my kids wearing that on Saturday at the rec at the Y league. So it's just not the same. But they look pretty sharp and it. But I do wonder if Penny, you know, in one hand, the hobbies popular enough, big enough, and they'll figure some Things out. But are they gonna survive without these licenses? I don't know.
- [15:35]
A
They got World cup this year, so that's gonna help them. Yeah, and I think pop culture, too. Like, you know, like, with Gary V. Doing his V friends, like, we talk about this before, it's like there's. There's people out there that I want to get in collecting on different levels. I mean, and so I think they have a chance to, you know, musicians or artists or actors. I think they have a chance to go in there. I just don't think unlicensed product is, like, they'll probably make money on it, but I don't think that's like a huge multiple if they want to exit.
- [16:08]
B
No. And it'd be interesting if they just end up selling for less than what they planned. You know, I could see that being where it goes ultimately, you know, what.
- [16:17]
A
They should have done. Like, this is what I. This is what I said Panini should do to final to get the. The final to fanatics. They should have printed so many cards in the last two years and just, like, flooded the market with Panini stuff. And then you're like, all right, Fanax, here you go.
- [16:37]
B
Yeah, the value goes down, you know, like, I don't know. You guys get in the way sometimes. Yeah.
- [16:44]
A
And I think the reason why they couldn't do it is because there's not enough printers that can print the quality of what it takes to do sports cards. And I think they ran into it, and Fanatics is smart. They bought a couple. I know they bought at least one of those printers, and that's kind of controlling a lot of it. So. Yeah, whatever happened. Yeah.
- [17:06]
B
Tom Brady's expansion with Card Vault and all. I mean, you've got a lot of store, a lot of concept things. What's. What say you about Tom's expansion with Card Vault?
- [17:15]
A
I mean, it's aggressive, but, like, the shops are. They're almost like putting module homes up. Right. Like, they do it. It's a small footprint. They have a business model. They could turn them over fast. I mean, if this isn't a handoff to Fanatics, I don't know like, what company is. I mean, it's like exactly what Fanatics wants.
- [17:33]
B
Right.
- [17:34]
A
There's no. No hot. There's no retail stuff in there. You can't spend more than 15 or 20 minutes in the store. But it has a cool factor. I could say one thing about this. Dave and Adams spends so much money to get their store in Manhattan.
- [17:50]
B
I mean. Yeah.
- [17:51]
A
And it's nice It's a nice store. All sudden, six months later, half a mile away. Now there's a card fault and I, I would not be happy if I was Dave and Adams because that. There was probably some assurances at some level, but I'm speculating.
- [18:08]
B
So then we got some renderings. What's, what's it starting to look like? What are we, what are we looking at? What were you pleased?
- [18:13]
A
Yeah, yeah, we're on probably the third or fourth rendering. I'm heading down there next week. I think it's got what I'm looking for in a brand. I think it's got what the rangers are looking for and we just want to be accessible to all hobbyists.
- [18:30]
B
Are we thinking about Ludx integration in the store beyond like obviously logos and all that stuff? It's the Ludx card show. But is that part of the vision?
- [18:45]
A
Yeah, I mean I, this industry's searching for many things and there's no question that a inventory management system that is easy to use and can be done by on your phone like Ludx. It's. I, it's going to be the future of card shops and the future is going to start with ours. We're going to have the kiosk where we scan all the cards in. Um, we're gonna have some technology in there, but more than anything it's the ability to then have your e commerce site go bigger. Right. So if I'm able to put a thousand cards onto, onto my Shopify account and I could share that immediately now I'm making more money and you know, that's, we're, we're, we're 100% pushing that. We will be the first to use it. I think we have some, I think fanatics and tops are looking at us very closely about what the future of the tech shop could be. So, yeah, it's going to, it's going to be different. But honestly, I think it, it's, it's. We're going to come out with this product in probably another two months and that's, I think it's going to change a lot of the card shops and profitability of these card shops.
- [20:03]
B
I'm going to tell you the Rad Collective is using this. You go to breakingrad.com let me tell you how our workflow goes. So we open packs, we scan them with Ludx, we put them in our collection or we go to the, the unreleased what Brian's talking about, the, the business app enterprise and use the official terms here, scan them all in we go to ebay. We have what currently is an API set up, because I run a tech company, but Brian's probably working on developing this, so I don't have to do it this way. It pushes from eBay to RadCollective.com we have a Shopify site already so that we can sell on both locations. And so that integration is amazing for running a business and selling your card. Number one. All happens. You know, I don't. 100, 200, 300 times faster and more manageable. But then the integration of all these things, and so it's. It's exciting times.
- [21:05]
A
Yeah, it's out there. That's, you know, that technology exists. It's like, you know, not that you're not a genius tech guy, but, like, you can. Yes. Smarter people than me can figure this out. And the whole thing with Lux is exactly that. It's like.
- [21:21]
B
Yeah, it's the condom.
- [21:22]
A
If you want to stay in Shopify, you can stay in Shopify. You want to go to ebay, go to ebay. If you want to go for Max collect, go there too.
- [21:28]
B
The bottom line is the scan. It's scan to win, baby. You know, it's scan to dollars. You know, you got to start with the scan because that's the way, you know, what you have digitally.
- [21:38]
A
Yep, that. Yeah, that. That's the winning formula. Is technology into an ecosystem that kind of needs it. So we'll see how it plays out in the next six to nine months.
- [21:51]
B
Well, 7.2 mil, brother. Babe Ruth rookie card. I see these numbers every day, and I feel like they just kind of roll off of us now. Like, I think even my kids hear that. 7.2. I mean, they're so get. So $7.2 million. A lot of money. Like, I think. Yeah, you and I know that, but, like, you know what I'm saying? You see billions in the headlines are billions of this, millions of that. It gets, like, sort of washed away. But 7.2 mil for a piece of cardboard.
- [22:25]
A
Do you think they make money on that investment or lose?
- [22:31]
B
Well, that's what it was, 20, 23. I mean, so now it. There. There's speculation that it'll be twice that. I don't know. It probably will be.
- [22:40]
A
And then after that, I mean, if there's multi billionaires that want something, really, what is the difference between 7 million, 14 million or 20? Like, if they want it, they're gonna buy it, Right?
- [22:51]
B
True.
- [22:52]
A
Now you got these funds coming out.
- [22:54]
B
Yeah, Mr. Wonderful wants it. He's getting it.
- [22:56]
A
Yeah, you Know, it's a fun. It's a long term play. They don't care, but they're buying an asset that no one else has. So I mean, if I had the money, that's where I would. That's what I would do. But not everyone. I don't have $7.2 million.
- [23:14]
B
What are you talking about? It's like sitting on the counter behind you, you know, Is that. It's in the Ludx Vau, you know, LX company.
- [23:22]
A
That's where it's at.
- [23:23]
B
Exactly.
- [23:25]
A
Technology.
- [23:26]
B
I know. Yeah. I'm like, yeah. What are you worth? Well, look around. Three of these, four of those. You never know. I mean, these Jordans, you know, you want them, you know, size 15. Never worn. Yeah.
- [23:40]
A
Everything's on sale. Your whole desk is on sale, right?
- [23:44]
B
Are you kidding? Anything except for the Sotani. You know, I'm not. I'm not Otani. Excuse me. Acuna, acuna atani, akuna matata. You know, Acuna Jr. Is not for sale because my boy Josh Luber is a personal gift. He's gonna just stay around for years to come. Neither is my personalized bat from my boys at dugout mugs. That's not for sale. But everything else is.
- [24:11]
A
All right.
- [24:12]
B
Yeah, you heard it. You heard it. Michael Jordan poster are drawing from my boy Matt Caesar. Well, hey, Chicago Cubs. Remember that name.

How sweet is that?

- [25:15]
B
Exactly. He's amazing. Go see him.
- [25:17]
A
A couple. We had a couple things last week that we wanted to touch on.
- [25:21]
B
1.
- [25:21]
A
I. I owe you pictures of my 5 million cards in my collection.
- [25:27]
B
May or may not have seen some videos.
- [25:29]
A
Yeah, it. I gotta get them a little. A little better. The second thing is we have the Zion case giveaway.
- [25:36]
B
Yes. Yeah.
- [25:38]
A
So the Zion case giveaway. The Luttox one. But I told my friend Clint that I would kind of open up in case people don't know. But this is where you put your. Your cards. Nice and perfected.
- [25:51]
B
Oh, yeah.
- [25:52]
A
Super light. It looks. It's so light for.
- [25:56]
B
I didn't realize, Brian, until I went home last weekend after you talked about that one of my boys won that exact case at the National.
- [26:06]
A
Oh, from our booth?
- [26:07]
B
Yeah, from your booth. I don't know if it was rigged or not, but we won. They won one.
- [26:13]
A
I didn't know you well enough back down to rig it for you. The.
- [26:19]
B
But no, one of my sons is very lucky. He wins, like, everything he enters. He won that exact case. And I was like, wait a second. We're getting away with this. He's like, yeah, that's the best case I've ever had. I'm like, okay.
- [26:31]
A
Yeah. He brought it to the Ludox Lounge where you guys hung out a lot. Like, yeah. I was like, oh, that's cool. Like, how did you get that? And he's like, I want it. I'm like, really?
- [26:43]
B
But he, to this day, is the only case he uses.

A
I get it. So the other thing we had going on is we wanted to accumulate the. The scans per team during the playoffs. So we went back to the first wild card series, and The Dodgers had 42,000 card scan. The Reds had 20,000. So that LA moves on there. Then the Cubs beat the Padres in the series. And also scanning cards. The Yankees beat the Red Sox by like, couple thousand. Like, very close. Yankees move on. And then the Tigers beat the Guardians. So every single card that. Every single team that had more scans won the first round.

B
That is really interesting. And if you're listening, you need to be watching on YouTube or Spotify. We have it on screen. The visual of this and the fact that it's crazy. That's just crazy because there's really. There's correlation, but not correlation. Yeah, right.
- [27:53]
A
It's like, yeah, I mean, the Red Sox, Yankees should be pretty like. I mean, Cincinnati, LA makes sense. San Diego and the Cubs kind of makes sense. But like Detroit, Cleveland should be somewhat like, very close. Insane. With the Red Sox, Red Sox, Yankees could have gone either way.
- [28:09]
B
That could have gone either way. And it almost did. I mean, it's not that big of a jump.
- [28:14]
A
So you think if you as Yankees fans, if you scan, just keep scanning, scanning, scanning, that you're destined to come back and win this series, dude.
- [28:22]
B
So get involved on this. Look, you got to pull for your team both online offline. And this is how you do it digitally with your card collection. Go to ludx, go to the App Store, Download ludx L U D E X Search For Ludx or greatest app of all time that scans cards. Either one of those will bring up Ludx and you know, get out all your favorite teams that are still in the bracket and you'll see this on the screen and go to look at Ludx on Instagram or any of the social channels. So I love this. This is fun, man.

A
And, and to round it out, that Lux case goes out to the person who at the end of the playoffs, the last game, World Series, whoever guesses the closest number to how many Ludic scans were done in baseball during the playoffs that they win the case. And I might even have a second place and third place gift. I don't.
- [29:17]
B
Hey, you never know. We'll send them a skiing, you know, Magic, right?
- [29:23]
A
Or something.
- [29:23]
B
You know, like it's a little, little ghost. Another one, you know, something and probably something a lot cooler like this Ludox hat or something.
- [29:32]
A
Yeah, those are hard to get with the tariffs and everything.

B
I know the only problem with doing this show, all these stuff I want I, you know, like at home when I'm. When all the collectibles around me, you know, you just pick stuff up, you're just like, I'm a little ADD anyway, so it's like, hey, I remember why I like this. In this pair of shoes. Shiny objects. Oh, it's really not that complicated. Like, oh, why are collectibles so popular? Because they're collectibles. It's just stuff you can look at and you know, go daydream about, but Americana. But let's just say that scan number, hey, you need to be. You know, if you're not listening every week, let's just say it's probably more than you think it is. If you go back a couple episodes and make sure you replay it three or four times. Our advertisers, when marketers will. Will thank you for that. But. But more importantly, you'll probably get some clues on just the volume that loadex gets, which is mind blowing and exciting at the same time.

B
Anything else we got today, Brian?
- [30:47]
A
I think I'm gonna watch some baseball tonight. I gotta get, I gotta get my game face on for the Monday Night Football showdown with the. The Bears and Washington football team. Last year it didn't work out well, the Hail Mary, the only one that's ever worked in the history of.
- [31:05]
B
Oh my God.
- [31:06]
A
Well happened against the Bears, so I hope we get some retribution. And then heading out to Dallas next week.
- [31:13]
B
So dude, can't wait to see what you get into. You got to take lots of, of photos, videos out there. Anything you can don't, you know, take Polaroids, whatever it is.
- [31:26]
A
We could film this show there too. Like we might be on. I might be on location.
- [31:30]
B
That would be awesome. But if you do that, then I'm just gonna be jealous I'm not there and I'm moving too many things to get on a plane. My wife would kill me. But nonetheless, go to the App Store, look for Ludx. Get involved on this stuff. It's fun. You, you look, look. This is the CEO of LudX who this, this guy's running multimillion dollar company innovation happening. But we're just collectors at the end of the day having fun doing what guys do, doing what people do in this industry, in the hobby that we're blessed to be in. I love it, brother.
