The Diamond King
After two years of work, The Diamond King releases to the public on April 25, 2025. The documentary tells the story of Dick Perez, the artist behind the Donruss Diamond Kings, Hall of Fame Heroes, and the classic Hall of Fame postcards.
In this episode I interview Marq Evans, the film maker behind the movie and Dick Perez himself.

I Tried Live Selling?
I did it, I tried live selling on DibDitCards.com (https://district.net/dibditcards).
Ivan Lovgren @watchthebreaks (https://x.com/WatchTheBreaks) and Cary from American Arbitrage finally convinced me to give live selling a try. In this episode I discuss how my first few shows went!
I also discuss my process of doing some “spring cleaning” in my eBay store.
