WEBVTT

00:00:17.329 --> 00:00:17.629
Thank you.

00:00:36.868 --> 00:00:37.668
Hey, y'all.

00:00:37.768 --> 00:00:39.890
It's me, Tara Strong, a.k.a.

00:00:39.969 --> 00:00:41.911
Miss Minutes for Bama Geeks.

00:00:42.390 --> 00:00:43.371
I hope you're ready to watch.

00:00:43.411 --> 00:00:44.271
And if you don't,

00:00:44.651 --> 00:00:45.932
I will have to prune you.

00:00:46.271 --> 00:00:48.332
Stay on your sacred timeline.

00:00:55.935 --> 00:00:59.195
And a happy Sunday evening to you.

00:00:59.256 --> 00:01:00.776
Happy New Year,

00:01:00.936 --> 00:01:02.277
if nobody's told you that yet.

00:01:03.046 --> 00:01:03.487
Oh, yeah.

00:01:03.607 --> 00:01:04.287
It is a new year.

00:01:04.308 --> 00:01:04.388
Yeah.

00:01:04.528 --> 00:01:05.588
Yes.

00:01:05.629 --> 00:01:06.450
New year, new us.

00:01:07.189 --> 00:01:10.772
Well, I don't know about new.

00:01:10.813 --> 00:01:11.914
That's what they say anyway.

00:01:12.373 --> 00:01:14.436
I'm still writing twenty twenty five on my

00:01:14.456 --> 00:01:14.915
checks.

00:01:16.096 --> 00:01:17.737
You still have to scribble it out.

00:01:17.778 --> 00:01:18.659
Who uses checks?

00:01:22.221 --> 00:01:23.221
Well, good evening.

00:01:23.242 --> 00:01:24.742
We are happy to have you with us.

00:01:24.784 --> 00:01:25.963
We are the Bama Geeks.

00:01:26.125 --> 00:01:26.724
I'm Brock.

00:01:26.745 --> 00:01:27.885
That's my wife, Jess,

00:01:27.945 --> 00:01:29.947
across the other side of the screen.

00:01:29.986 --> 00:01:30.128
Yep.

00:01:30.819 --> 00:01:32.040
And, of course, Kevin and Bo.

00:01:32.700 --> 00:01:35.043
And we have, once again with us,

00:01:35.162 --> 00:01:38.885
Wolf and Derek from Gadsden Collector Con,

00:01:38.906 --> 00:01:40.808
which is coming up this Saturday.

00:01:41.349 --> 00:01:42.328
How are you guys doing?

00:01:43.631 --> 00:01:44.611
Doing pretty well.

00:01:45.292 --> 00:01:47.353
Glad to be back and excited for the

00:01:47.373 --> 00:01:49.055
show.

00:01:49.075 --> 00:01:49.855
We are thrilled.

00:01:50.956 --> 00:01:52.539
We're going to talk all about Gadsden

00:01:52.558 --> 00:01:54.640
Collector Con and what that's going to

00:01:54.659 --> 00:01:57.423
entail this weekend and everything.

00:01:58.031 --> 00:01:59.094
Oh, my gosh.

00:01:59.155 --> 00:02:01.822
Last year when we went last July was

00:02:01.841 --> 00:02:02.563
your last show.

00:02:03.344 --> 00:02:05.710
And it was so amazing.

00:02:07.375 --> 00:02:09.036
And so we can't wait, A,

00:02:09.075 --> 00:02:09.556
for the show.

00:02:09.596 --> 00:02:11.097
Can't wait to talk about it.

00:02:11.776 --> 00:02:13.859
And I'm seeing the count number creep up

00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:14.359
in here.

00:02:14.438 --> 00:02:17.580
We are creeping up to sixty viewers right

00:02:17.621 --> 00:02:18.721
now off the get-go.

00:02:18.741 --> 00:02:20.421
You guys are pulling those followers in

00:02:20.461 --> 00:02:20.641
here.

00:02:20.662 --> 00:02:21.562
Look at that.

00:02:21.582 --> 00:02:24.163
That's from the Facebook,

00:02:24.183 --> 00:02:24.843
not the Instagram.

00:02:24.883 --> 00:02:27.966
You know what?

00:02:27.985 --> 00:02:29.486
I'm willing to bet you these folks are

00:02:29.507 --> 00:02:30.987
here because they're thinking you guys are

00:02:31.008 --> 00:02:32.769
going to drop something really awesome,

00:02:32.848 --> 00:02:32.929
okay?

00:02:32.949 --> 00:02:34.710
I hope you get prepared.

00:02:37.795 --> 00:02:37.936
Well,

00:02:37.955 --> 00:02:39.836
let me say hello to all the new

00:02:39.896 --> 00:02:40.437
viewers.

00:02:40.516 --> 00:02:41.977
If you haven't seen us before,

00:02:45.318 --> 00:02:46.177
we're the Bama Geeks.

00:02:46.218 --> 00:02:46.818
We've been around.

00:02:46.859 --> 00:02:48.558
We're going into our fifth year on this

00:02:48.818 --> 00:02:49.459
podcast,

00:02:50.379 --> 00:02:52.699
and we just appreciate you finding us and

00:02:53.040 --> 00:02:53.721
welcome in.

00:02:53.760 --> 00:02:56.382
And we hope that you'll continue to hang

00:02:56.421 --> 00:02:56.882
out with us.

00:02:56.921 --> 00:03:00.582
We are live every other Sunday here on

00:03:00.742 --> 00:03:01.342
YouTube,

00:03:01.362 --> 00:03:03.623
and we're also on Twitch and X right

00:03:03.663 --> 00:03:03.824
now.

00:03:05.024 --> 00:03:07.725
A little bit of housekeeping since those

00:03:07.746 --> 00:03:08.566
numbers are creeping up.

00:03:08.605 --> 00:03:10.388
Thank you guys so much for joining us.

00:03:10.407 --> 00:03:11.008
That's awesome.

00:03:11.848 --> 00:03:13.770
Before we get into the nuts and bolts

00:03:13.810 --> 00:03:15.110
of Gadsden Collector Con,

00:03:15.191 --> 00:03:16.570
just want to let you know where you

00:03:16.591 --> 00:03:17.271
can find us.

00:03:17.572 --> 00:03:18.151
Social media,

00:03:18.171 --> 00:03:20.074
you can find us everywhere at BamaGeeks.

00:03:20.533 --> 00:03:23.695
More importantly, though, BamaGeeks.com.

00:03:23.716 --> 00:03:25.597
That's the website where you can find all

00:03:25.637 --> 00:03:27.739
the audio episodes, the video episodes,

00:03:27.778 --> 00:03:28.818
anything you want to know about the

00:03:28.838 --> 00:03:29.439
podcast.

00:03:30.180 --> 00:03:31.699
Every piece of content that we've ever

00:03:31.740 --> 00:03:33.621
done is right there.

00:03:33.881 --> 00:03:35.181
And if you're on Facebook,

00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:37.801
that Derek runs so well,

00:03:41.443 --> 00:03:43.163
search out the Bama Geeks front porch.

00:03:43.182 --> 00:03:45.163
That's our private little community where

00:03:45.204 --> 00:03:49.305
we post just geeky things and like to

00:03:49.344 --> 00:03:50.585
hang out and share things.

00:03:50.604 --> 00:03:51.384
And then, of course,

00:03:51.685 --> 00:03:54.466
we've also got paid memberships,

00:03:54.985 --> 00:03:56.445
never necessary,

00:03:56.665 --> 00:03:59.187
but we've got some of our members

00:04:00.532 --> 00:04:03.194
Jamie, Mike, Darnay, and Jack,

00:04:03.555 --> 00:04:05.116
thank you guys so much for your continued

00:04:05.156 --> 00:04:06.116
financial support.

00:04:06.516 --> 00:04:08.437
They've been with us now for getting close

00:04:08.457 --> 00:04:09.837
to the five years that we've been on

00:04:09.877 --> 00:04:10.479
here.

00:04:10.618 --> 00:04:12.439
So we appreciate you guys very much.

00:04:13.700 --> 00:04:15.161
Again, if you're new to Bama Geeks,

00:04:15.782 --> 00:04:17.523
we're based out of the Birmingham area,

00:04:18.302 --> 00:04:21.464
and we cover any and everything pop

00:04:21.504 --> 00:04:23.185
culture related to the state of Alabama.

00:04:23.206 --> 00:04:24.726
That's kind of our niche,

00:04:24.747 --> 00:04:25.766
what we kind of like to tie it

00:04:25.826 --> 00:04:26.108
into.

00:04:27.627 --> 00:04:30.310
We had these two gentlemen on back last

00:04:30.350 --> 00:04:32.411
summer as they were getting ready to

00:04:32.471 --> 00:04:33.531
promote that show.

00:04:33.612 --> 00:04:34.913
And we had such a great time,

00:04:35.713 --> 00:04:37.153
not only with them on the podcast,

00:04:37.194 --> 00:04:38.654
but also at the show.

00:04:38.694 --> 00:04:39.896
We wanted to make sure we got them

00:04:39.935 --> 00:04:42.437
back on here to talk about all the

00:04:42.476 --> 00:04:43.898
fun that's going to be happening this

00:04:43.937 --> 00:04:45.158
weekend in Gadsden.

00:04:45.939 --> 00:04:47.920
So guys, if you will,

00:04:47.961 --> 00:04:49.341
just kind of introduce yourselves to

00:04:49.442 --> 00:04:52.583
people who may not know who you are.

00:04:52.622 --> 00:04:53.184
Go ahead, Wolf.

00:04:54.329 --> 00:04:54.449
Okay.

00:04:54.468 --> 00:04:55.048
I'm Wolf.

00:04:55.428 --> 00:04:58.170
I own a collectible store on Broad Street

00:04:58.189 --> 00:04:59.810
in Gadsden called Wolfden Collectibles.

00:05:00.490 --> 00:05:03.492
And I'm one of the put on the

00:05:03.632 --> 00:05:04.531
Gadsden Collector Con.

00:05:04.552 --> 00:05:06.093
So we appreciate you having us on.

00:05:06.112 --> 00:05:06.192
Yeah.

00:05:07.372 --> 00:05:07.952
My pleasure.

00:05:08.833 --> 00:05:09.574
My name is Derek.

00:05:09.593 --> 00:05:11.934
I own Katie's Comics and Collectibles.

00:05:11.954 --> 00:05:13.855
I have a booth in Birmingham.

00:05:15.334 --> 00:05:17.175
Travel to different shows and cons.

00:05:17.196 --> 00:05:19.196
Seen you guys in Chattanooga when I was

00:05:19.216 --> 00:05:19.315
there.

00:05:19.336 --> 00:05:20.276
Oh, that's right.

00:05:20.297 --> 00:05:20.456
Yep.

00:05:21.637 --> 00:05:21.697
Um,

00:05:22.980 --> 00:05:23.281
And yeah,

00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:25.502
one of the three owners of the Gadsden

00:05:25.523 --> 00:05:26.084
Collective Con.

00:05:27.964 --> 00:05:29.526
Well, fantastic.

00:05:29.586 --> 00:05:30.867
And if you've got any questions for these

00:05:30.906 --> 00:05:32.588
guys while you're in here tonight in the

00:05:32.629 --> 00:05:33.288
live chat,

00:05:33.850 --> 00:05:36.291
make sure you pop it in there.

00:05:36.331 --> 00:05:37.533
Just like Bama Frady.

00:05:37.773 --> 00:05:38.252
Yeah.

00:05:38.954 --> 00:05:41.375
It's got some great dioramas there.

00:05:41.576 --> 00:05:41.956
Yeah.

00:05:42.156 --> 00:05:44.999
And we purchased one from him last show.

00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:47.461
So definitely check him out for sure.

00:05:47.620 --> 00:05:47.901
Yeah.

00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:48.762
So glad to see you in here.

00:05:50.108 --> 00:05:52.730
And then bought in Ken King.

00:05:52.930 --> 00:05:54.432
Me and my kiddo Jackson will be there

00:05:54.512 --> 00:05:55.033
Saturday.

00:05:55.132 --> 00:05:55.874
Fantastic.

00:05:57.154 --> 00:05:58.495
Yeah.

00:05:58.536 --> 00:05:59.757
Last year, last July,

00:05:59.776 --> 00:06:01.858
you guys had a terrific crowd in there.

00:06:03.298 --> 00:06:04.620
So I can only imagine that the,

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:07.843
and seeing everything on social media from

00:06:07.862 --> 00:06:10.625
you guys and within like the Alabama toy

00:06:10.665 --> 00:06:10.964
Mercs,

00:06:11.446 --> 00:06:12.927
Facebook group and all there's a lot of

00:06:12.966 --> 00:06:14.108
excitement building.

00:06:15.709 --> 00:06:18.130
So I be hard to imagine that there's

00:06:18.190 --> 00:06:19.812
not a bigger crowd this time around.

00:06:20.122 --> 00:06:20.523
Well, you know,

00:06:20.562 --> 00:06:21.543
it's going to be a bit different for

00:06:21.642 --> 00:06:23.423
us as Bama Geeks because this time we're

00:06:23.444 --> 00:06:25.204
going as vendors.

00:06:25.264 --> 00:06:26.045
That's right.

00:06:26.404 --> 00:06:27.685
Yeah.

00:06:27.805 --> 00:06:28.785
So you're going to be able to see

00:06:28.824 --> 00:06:30.146
your favorite Bama Geeks here.

00:06:30.185 --> 00:06:31.725
We're going to have our own dedicated dual

00:06:31.766 --> 00:06:33.966
table set up there with a nice big

00:06:33.987 --> 00:06:34.326
banner.

00:06:34.346 --> 00:06:35.266
Come and talk to us.

00:06:35.607 --> 00:06:36.646
We're all four going to be there.

00:06:36.666 --> 00:06:37.807
We're going to be taking pictures.

00:06:38.588 --> 00:06:38.947
Yeah.

00:06:39.088 --> 00:06:41.249
Yeah.

00:06:41.269 --> 00:06:42.309
As a matter of fact,

00:06:43.129 --> 00:06:44.870
there will be dioramas for sale.

00:06:47.149 --> 00:06:47.910
Wonder who's selling them.

00:06:47.970 --> 00:06:48.170
Yeah.

00:06:48.190 --> 00:06:48.271
What?

00:06:52.932 --> 00:06:54.874
And this is y'all's first time vending

00:06:55.194 --> 00:06:55.413
ever?

00:06:55.935 --> 00:06:56.855
Ever anywhere.

00:06:56.875 --> 00:06:57.516
Yeah.

00:06:57.536 --> 00:06:58.115
That's awesome.

00:06:58.555 --> 00:07:00.278
Dipping our toes in the water there.

00:07:00.718 --> 00:07:02.139
Glad we're your first, yeah.

00:07:04.139 --> 00:07:06.041
That just speaks to the wonderful

00:07:06.081 --> 00:07:07.302
character for you guys.

00:07:08.043 --> 00:07:10.745
Little did we know before this that there

00:07:10.805 --> 00:07:13.807
was things in Gadsden cooler than top of

00:07:13.846 --> 00:07:14.247
the river.

00:07:14.507 --> 00:07:19.050
That's right.

00:07:22.312 --> 00:07:23.273
And Spartan Wrestling.

00:07:25.634 --> 00:07:25.894
There you go.

00:07:25.913 --> 00:07:26.574
They're at the Gaston Mall.

00:07:31.136 --> 00:07:32.735
Adam says, if I didn't self-promote,

00:07:32.776 --> 00:07:35.836
I wouldn't have promoted.

00:07:35.857 --> 00:07:36.817
Free advertising!

00:07:37.218 --> 00:07:37.817
That's right.

00:07:38.137 --> 00:07:39.319
We're happy to help you with that, too,

00:07:39.338 --> 00:07:39.538
man.

00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:43.000
We love to support those who do fantastic

00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:45.160
work, and we can speak to the work.

00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:46.281
It is fantastic.

00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.201
He's been with us all four shows now,

00:07:49.242 --> 00:07:49.781
so he's

00:07:50.482 --> 00:07:51.502
Everybody loves his booth.

00:07:51.543 --> 00:07:53.906
It's one of the best booths there for

00:07:53.925 --> 00:07:55.226
sure.

00:07:55.307 --> 00:07:56.028
Absolutely.

00:07:56.968 --> 00:07:58.771
So this is show number four coming up,

00:07:58.810 --> 00:07:59.170
correct?

00:07:59.572 --> 00:08:00.012
Yes, sir.

00:08:01.533 --> 00:08:02.935
Tell us about the growth of this thing,

00:08:02.975 --> 00:08:04.896
man.

00:08:04.937 --> 00:08:05.617
Go ahead, Wolf.

00:08:06.478 --> 00:08:09.281
Well, just to think back when we started,

00:08:09.322 --> 00:08:11.884
we were just only in those side rooms.

00:08:12.543 --> 00:08:13.742
And then just to grow to what it

00:08:13.783 --> 00:08:15.624
is now, it's just been a blessing.

00:08:15.963 --> 00:08:17.204
And, you know,

00:08:17.504 --> 00:08:18.845
it's always a nervous feeling.

00:08:19.466 --> 00:08:20.946
It's a fun and exciting,

00:08:21.026 --> 00:08:23.387
nervous feeling just to see what the next

00:08:23.406 --> 00:08:24.146
show will hold.

00:08:24.187 --> 00:08:26.927
But we agree with you.

00:08:26.947 --> 00:08:27.869
We think it's going to grow.

00:08:28.048 --> 00:08:29.588
So we sure do hope so.

00:08:29.608 --> 00:08:30.750
So we're looking forward to it.

00:08:32.539 --> 00:08:34.100
And it is such a good venue.

00:08:34.140 --> 00:08:34.782
That venue,

00:08:34.802 --> 00:08:36.182
you guys have looked out on that.

00:08:36.202 --> 00:08:37.423
That is, I mean,

00:08:37.644 --> 00:08:39.485
it's got great parking around it,

00:08:39.546 --> 00:08:40.807
good amenities around it.

00:08:41.346 --> 00:08:42.628
It's, it's very, very nice.

00:08:43.828 --> 00:08:43.928
Yeah.

00:08:43.948 --> 00:08:44.049
Yeah.

00:08:44.110 --> 00:08:44.730
Free parking.

00:08:44.769 --> 00:08:45.870
I mean, that's a huge thing.

00:08:45.951 --> 00:08:46.971
There's plenty of it.

00:08:47.591 --> 00:08:49.594
I just, the only problem is we can't,

00:08:50.774 --> 00:08:51.134
I don't know,

00:08:51.195 --> 00:08:53.096
being split up in three sections.

00:08:53.236 --> 00:08:54.077
It's a little odd,

00:08:54.878 --> 00:08:57.059
but I feel like everybody now is to

00:08:57.080 --> 00:08:57.480
the point.

00:08:57.500 --> 00:08:58.701
They know everything's there.

00:08:58.721 --> 00:09:01.083
It should be a good flow of traffic.

00:09:01.344 --> 00:09:01.464
Uh,

00:09:02.784 --> 00:09:04.129
And that's how we're able to get,

00:09:04.149 --> 00:09:04.850
you know, eighty,

00:09:05.270 --> 00:09:06.634
eighty to ninety vendors in there.

00:09:06.674 --> 00:09:07.096
So, yeah.

00:09:07.866 --> 00:09:08.027
I mean,

00:09:08.126 --> 00:09:09.807
other than some of the rooms feeling a

00:09:09.847 --> 00:09:10.508
little tight,

00:09:11.128 --> 00:09:12.509
it wasn't really that difficult to get

00:09:12.548 --> 00:09:13.969
around that much.

00:09:13.989 --> 00:09:14.110
Oh, no.

00:09:14.129 --> 00:09:15.129
I mean, if anything,

00:09:15.190 --> 00:09:16.530
it was like there were so many people

00:09:17.091 --> 00:09:17.831
in some of the rooms,

00:09:17.870 --> 00:09:19.052
it was just kind of like you just

00:09:19.072 --> 00:09:20.432
kind of had to wait for a few

00:09:20.792 --> 00:09:21.913
to get around them, you know?

00:09:22.232 --> 00:09:24.134
But other than that, it was, I mean,

00:09:24.214 --> 00:09:26.995
if anything, as someone looking for stuff,

00:09:27.014 --> 00:09:28.534
it just kind of makes you more excited

00:09:28.835 --> 00:09:29.796
because you're like, oh, man,

00:09:29.816 --> 00:09:31.355
there must be some good stuff down there.

00:09:31.395 --> 00:09:32.636
Ever taken that long looking at it,

00:09:32.716 --> 00:09:33.496
you know?

00:09:33.517 --> 00:09:34.457
And it makes you want to look at

00:09:34.498 --> 00:09:35.197
it even more, right?

00:09:35.217 --> 00:09:35.317
True.

00:09:39.443 --> 00:09:41.186
So as far as vendors go,

00:09:41.806 --> 00:09:43.807
what type of items can we expect to

00:09:43.847 --> 00:09:44.948
find there this weekend?

00:09:46.250 --> 00:09:51.413
Everything from coins to Marvel cards to

00:09:51.474 --> 00:09:56.258
comics, Pokemon, toys, video games,

00:09:56.278 --> 00:09:57.679
just everything you think of.

00:09:58.767 --> 00:10:00.087
I don't think we got stamps,

00:10:00.268 --> 00:10:02.229
but about everything else, yeah.

00:10:02.769 --> 00:10:03.710
Ooh, open market.

00:10:03.730 --> 00:10:04.330
I'm getting stamps.

00:10:04.350 --> 00:10:09.633
We've got, well,

00:10:10.273 --> 00:10:12.053
you mentioned sports cards.

00:10:12.134 --> 00:10:12.914
Yeah.

00:10:12.955 --> 00:10:13.934
Sports member video.

00:10:16.917 --> 00:10:17.856
I'll forget something,

00:10:17.876 --> 00:10:20.057
but it's a lot of stuff.

00:10:20.077 --> 00:10:20.197
Yeah.

00:10:20.238 --> 00:10:21.019
Retro video games.

00:10:21.499 --> 00:10:24.039
Retro video games for sure, yes.

00:10:24.059 --> 00:10:25.801
We got at least ten or twelve vendors

00:10:25.841 --> 00:10:26.241
of that.

00:10:26.442 --> 00:10:26.881
Good deal.

00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:30.120
I know you guys usually have somebody

00:10:30.140 --> 00:10:31.581
there still to lounge fly stuff,

00:10:31.621 --> 00:10:33.462
like lounge fly bags and things like that.

00:10:34.003 --> 00:10:35.524
Yeah, that's friends of mine.

00:10:35.884 --> 00:10:37.566
They got a lot of the Disney stuff.

00:10:38.765 --> 00:10:40.027
They got a lot of that stuff and

00:10:40.206 --> 00:10:43.590
Star Wars and stuff.

00:10:43.710 --> 00:10:46.130
And we have the crochet and is it

00:10:46.230 --> 00:10:47.231
one or two this time?

00:10:48.322 --> 00:10:49.985
know we got two with like a normal

00:10:50.024 --> 00:10:52.327
ten by ten booth okay they do great

00:10:52.347 --> 00:10:54.370
work yeah they do a lot of a

00:10:54.571 --> 00:10:56.293
lot of good artists that'll be there that

00:10:56.332 --> 00:10:59.336
make you know clay earrings and all that

00:10:59.356 --> 00:11:02.120
stuff yeah really talented artists

00:11:02.682 --> 00:11:05.125
I will say that the crochet vendors that

00:11:05.184 --> 00:11:05.966
do the crochet stuff,

00:11:05.985 --> 00:11:07.368
that is my absolute weakness.

00:11:08.068 --> 00:11:08.409
Really.

00:11:08.850 --> 00:11:11.433
Anybody that's been following this podcast

00:11:11.453 --> 00:11:13.976
for a while knows that I don't care.

00:11:14.037 --> 00:11:16.000
If it's like some big crochet thing and

00:11:16.019 --> 00:11:17.621
it grabs my eye, I'll buy it.

00:11:17.822 --> 00:11:18.221
I don't care.

00:11:19.263 --> 00:11:20.683
The most important thing,

00:11:20.724 --> 00:11:21.724
if it's crochet collectible,

00:11:21.764 --> 00:11:23.264
is it the thing that goes over your

00:11:23.283 --> 00:11:24.464
toilet paper your grandma had in the

00:11:24.524 --> 00:11:24.845
eighties?

00:11:24.924 --> 00:11:25.304
Yes.

00:11:27.865 --> 00:11:29.086
That stuff's making a comeback.

00:11:30.346 --> 00:11:31.046
Granny chic.

00:11:32.625 --> 00:11:33.246
Next thing you know,

00:11:33.267 --> 00:11:34.787
we'll be having carpet in the bathroom

00:11:35.187 --> 00:11:35.287
again.

00:11:35.307 --> 00:11:42.129
That is a health hazard.

00:11:47.426 --> 00:11:49.267
I need to get my daughter to crochet

00:11:49.287 --> 00:11:49.767
some stuff.

00:11:50.168 --> 00:11:51.788
She's really, really into that.

00:11:51.808 --> 00:11:53.129
She'll sit here and watch a movie and

00:11:53.629 --> 00:11:56.410
she's a nineteen in college and she'll

00:11:56.431 --> 00:11:59.273
turn out a scarf or whatever else during

00:11:59.293 --> 00:12:00.553
the middle of a movie like you've never

00:12:00.594 --> 00:12:00.813
seen.

00:12:01.333 --> 00:12:01.533
Honey,

00:12:01.553 --> 00:12:03.054
could you crochet me something for my

00:12:03.075 --> 00:12:03.794
bathroom, please?

00:12:05.456 --> 00:12:07.517
Well, Kevin, she got me a starter set,

00:12:07.557 --> 00:12:09.138
so she wants to teach me how.

00:12:09.158 --> 00:12:10.038
So, hey, look, I

00:12:10.458 --> 00:12:12.422
i may be crocheting like crazy before you

00:12:12.462 --> 00:12:13.804
know it she might be doing it at

00:12:14.024 --> 00:12:18.272
the epicom this weekend nice we're going

00:12:18.292 --> 00:12:19.373
to bring her before you know it you'll

00:12:19.393 --> 00:12:22.918
be selling crochet stuff i mean hey well

00:12:22.958 --> 00:12:24.581
it's like y'all said even last time you

00:12:24.620 --> 00:12:25.423
know it's not just

00:12:27.424 --> 00:12:28.225
You have, you know,

00:12:28.265 --> 00:12:29.846
the people that are there, you know,

00:12:29.868 --> 00:12:31.629
looking for the toys or the games and

00:12:31.649 --> 00:12:32.529
then, you know,

00:12:32.549 --> 00:12:34.371
they might have their significant other or

00:12:34.392 --> 00:12:35.253
their girlfriend there.

00:12:35.312 --> 00:12:36.534
So there's things like you said,

00:12:36.554 --> 00:12:38.035
the earrings, the craft stuff,

00:12:38.437 --> 00:12:39.977
stuff like that, that appeals to them.

00:12:40.479 --> 00:12:42.260
So that's always good to have that mix.

00:12:42.321 --> 00:12:42.620
You know,

00:12:42.660 --> 00:12:44.003
you've got just a little bit of something

00:12:44.023 --> 00:12:46.004
that people are looking for.

00:12:46.565 --> 00:12:48.586
And they can enjoy their time as well

00:12:48.626 --> 00:12:50.268
as whoever they came looking for,

00:12:50.327 --> 00:12:51.249
whatever they're looking for.

00:12:51.668 --> 00:12:53.551
If it's not their toys or cards or

00:12:53.850 --> 00:12:55.272
anything like that, it's not their thing.

00:12:55.292 --> 00:12:56.913
There's probably somebody else there with

00:12:56.953 --> 00:12:58.215
something they have an interest in.

00:12:58.995 --> 00:12:59.195
Yeah.

00:12:59.635 --> 00:13:01.456
That's definitely our hope that they,

00:13:01.496 --> 00:13:04.019
somebody or everybody can find something.

00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:04.519
Yeah.

00:13:04.820 --> 00:13:06.541
With all the vendors we have and the

00:13:06.581 --> 00:13:07.101
good mix.

00:13:07.162 --> 00:13:07.201
So.

00:13:07.221 --> 00:13:07.522
Right.

00:13:08.023 --> 00:13:08.822
Yeah.

00:13:08.842 --> 00:13:10.283
That's pretty much what I've been telling

00:13:10.325 --> 00:13:12.005
folks when they asked me what it's about.

00:13:12.225 --> 00:13:13.267
And you know, your logo is,

00:13:14.231 --> 00:13:15.993
it's awesome it kind of gives you the

00:13:16.013 --> 00:13:17.575
feels that it's going to be like mostly

00:13:17.615 --> 00:13:20.496
like marvel and like comic book related

00:13:20.517 --> 00:13:22.177
and everything it's a great logo but i'm

00:13:22.217 --> 00:13:25.380
like no they have everything there it's

00:13:25.541 --> 00:13:28.263
everything i mean uh my fiance went and

00:13:28.302 --> 00:13:29.803
she you know she's she's a big star

00:13:29.823 --> 00:13:30.845
wars fan but she doesn't do a lot

00:13:30.884 --> 00:13:32.886
of like collecting of just like the toys

00:13:32.927 --> 00:13:34.408
and things like that she's looking for

00:13:34.427 --> 00:13:36.509
like the oddball things and things off to

00:13:36.529 --> 00:13:38.331
the side and it's she was able to

00:13:38.350 --> 00:13:38.951
find stuff there

00:13:39.932 --> 00:13:40.292
Last year.

00:13:40.312 --> 00:13:42.692
So, you know, you're going to come here.

00:13:42.732 --> 00:13:43.452
Just bring some money.

00:13:43.472 --> 00:13:44.333
You're going to find stuff.

00:13:47.294 --> 00:13:47.735
Yeah,

00:13:47.774 --> 00:13:49.875
my big problem last year was I did

00:13:49.914 --> 00:13:51.375
not leave with everything that I wanted.

00:13:52.275 --> 00:13:54.236
I left things behind and I hated that.

00:13:55.770 --> 00:13:56.030
Yeah,

00:13:56.051 --> 00:13:57.631
you got to cut yourself off sometimes.

00:13:57.652 --> 00:13:59.293
That's just how it goes.

00:13:59.312 --> 00:14:02.274
This is a great quote right here.

00:14:07.475 --> 00:14:08.817
I'm afraid he says, I tell people,

00:14:09.017 --> 00:14:09.937
do you collect something?

00:14:10.138 --> 00:14:10.957
Yes, that'll be there.

00:14:10.998 --> 00:14:12.578
That's a good tagline for you there.

00:14:17.640 --> 00:14:17.801
Yeah,

00:14:17.880 --> 00:14:20.701
one of your vintage toy dealers there last

00:14:20.741 --> 00:14:23.182
year had a Dukes of Hazzard slot set,

00:14:24.143 --> 00:14:26.342
electric car set that I had as a

00:14:26.403 --> 00:14:26.763
kid.

00:14:27.482 --> 00:14:28.403
And Jess would tell you,

00:14:28.663 --> 00:14:30.344
I went back and forth to that booth.

00:14:30.364 --> 00:14:31.903
I don't know how many times going,

00:14:33.105 --> 00:14:33.565
I can't.

00:14:33.725 --> 00:14:35.024
I don't have the room in the house.

00:14:35.085 --> 00:14:35.764
Don't have the room.

00:14:36.485 --> 00:14:37.325
So this year,

00:14:37.826 --> 00:14:39.985
I'm bringing my own slot car set,

00:14:41.426 --> 00:14:43.447
a Batman set to sell.

00:14:43.466 --> 00:14:43.586
Yeah.

00:14:44.187 --> 00:14:45.167
So if you sell that one,

00:14:45.187 --> 00:14:46.827
you're going to go buy the other one

00:14:46.847 --> 00:14:48.528
and just replace it.

00:14:48.567 --> 00:14:49.729
Look, somebody helps me,

00:14:49.828 --> 00:14:50.769
I'll help somebody.

00:14:53.789 --> 00:14:55.230
I still know your one big thing you

00:14:55.250 --> 00:14:56.931
hope to find one day is that WKRP

00:14:56.990 --> 00:14:57.831
record set.

00:14:57.910 --> 00:14:58.650
Oh my gosh.

00:14:59.312 --> 00:14:59.672
Yeah.

00:14:59.751 --> 00:15:00.851
And since we've got a lot of viewers

00:15:00.892 --> 00:15:01.892
right now, I would tell you,

00:15:01.932 --> 00:15:02.732
if you guys,

00:15:03.052 --> 00:15:04.452
it was made by Vanity Fair,

00:15:04.572 --> 00:15:06.933
came out in the late seventies,

00:15:06.953 --> 00:15:07.594
early eighties.

00:15:08.413 --> 00:15:11.495
It's the WKRP in Cincinnati.

00:15:12.195 --> 00:15:12.416
DJ

00:15:14.196 --> 00:15:16.716
dj console something like that but it's

00:15:17.256 --> 00:15:18.878
it's a record player came with the

00:15:18.918 --> 00:15:21.158
microphone and had pictures of dr johnny

00:15:21.178 --> 00:15:24.220
fever and and and all the characters on

00:15:24.299 --> 00:15:26.081
it that was my very first record player

00:15:26.181 --> 00:15:29.142
and it's kind of kind of one of

00:15:29.162 --> 00:15:31.302
the seeds that was planted for me to

00:15:31.322 --> 00:15:34.164
get into radio and broadcasting so i've

00:15:34.184 --> 00:15:35.804
been trying to find that record player

00:15:35.845 --> 00:15:37.645
again for the longest time because it was

00:15:37.666 --> 00:15:39.486
at my mom's house but when she moved

00:15:41.081 --> 00:15:44.903
years ago, my uncle threw it out.

00:15:44.984 --> 00:15:46.826
It's been like his holy grail of toy

00:15:46.846 --> 00:15:46.946
items.

00:15:46.966 --> 00:15:47.385
See, here you go.

00:15:47.405 --> 00:15:48.167
Yeah, there it is.

00:15:49.227 --> 00:15:49.668
Yeah,

00:15:53.471 --> 00:15:55.313
I am on the lookout for that thing.

00:15:55.433 --> 00:15:57.456
And those things are impossible to find.

00:15:58.749 --> 00:16:01.110
That's before my time.

00:16:05.231 --> 00:16:06.792
Well, you know, some of us are.

00:16:07.131 --> 00:16:08.653
That does look like a white whale kind

00:16:08.673 --> 00:16:09.113
of thing.

00:16:10.653 --> 00:16:10.793
Yeah.

00:16:10.833 --> 00:16:11.953
You're definitely going to be looking for

00:16:11.994 --> 00:16:12.153
that.

00:16:13.274 --> 00:16:15.294
You'll spend thousands to find one

00:16:15.995 --> 00:16:16.676
complete.

00:16:16.796 --> 00:16:17.976
Yeah, complete.

00:16:18.076 --> 00:16:19.476
They are not complete anymore.

00:16:19.557 --> 00:16:23.658
And I need to build up my savings

00:16:23.698 --> 00:16:25.278
account again just in case I ever stumble

00:16:25.298 --> 00:16:25.679
across it.

00:16:27.517 --> 00:16:28.697
Credit cards, baby.

00:16:28.717 --> 00:16:32.961
Dave Ramsey would have my high.

00:16:35.923 --> 00:16:37.304
That is his Honus Wagner.

00:16:37.325 --> 00:16:38.065
Yes.

00:16:38.125 --> 00:16:38.946
If you know what I mean.

00:16:39.546 --> 00:16:40.667
Y'all know what I mean, right?

00:16:42.808 --> 00:16:43.490
We were talking.

00:16:44.309 --> 00:16:45.951
We had a little short members episode.

00:16:45.971 --> 00:16:47.592
So we were talking about Brock and I

00:16:47.613 --> 00:16:50.294
discovering the King of Collectibles show

00:16:50.355 --> 00:16:50.975
on Netflix.

00:16:51.735 --> 00:16:52.196
So I was like,

00:16:52.235 --> 00:16:54.157
I learned all about the Honus Wagner card

00:16:54.456 --> 00:16:55.576
and I wish I could find one.

00:16:55.616 --> 00:16:59.759
We'd be set for life.

00:16:59.798 --> 00:16:59.879
Yeah.

00:16:59.899 --> 00:17:00.399
If we did that,

00:17:00.418 --> 00:17:02.820
you guys would have a permanent con year

00:17:02.860 --> 00:17:03.100
round.

00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:06.060
Yeah.

00:17:06.080 --> 00:17:07.382
We'd be helping everybody out.

00:17:07.422 --> 00:17:08.122
That's right.

00:17:10.443 --> 00:17:11.565
Can't take it to the grave with me.

00:17:11.605 --> 00:17:13.988
Nope.

00:17:14.028 --> 00:17:15.609
Although I think if Dave Ramsey came into

00:17:15.630 --> 00:17:17.532
your house, Brock, he'd be like, Oh,

00:17:17.732 --> 00:17:18.212
I think I say,

00:17:18.232 --> 00:17:21.837
I know what the problem is.

00:17:24.059 --> 00:17:25.342
I think you might need to sell more.

00:17:25.662 --> 00:17:27.344
It wouldn't even take him a second to

00:17:27.384 --> 00:17:28.766
realize what the problem is.

00:17:30.972 --> 00:17:32.854
Well, not only we have vendors there,

00:17:32.874 --> 00:17:33.914
you guys are going to have celebrity

00:17:33.934 --> 00:17:34.674
guests there again.

00:17:35.194 --> 00:17:38.116
Last year, we had the Million Dollar Man,

00:17:38.156 --> 00:17:39.076
Ted DiBiase.

00:17:40.698 --> 00:17:42.999
That was a treat to meet him.

00:17:44.119 --> 00:17:45.000
Forgive me for forgetting.

00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:50.242
Who else was there in July?

00:17:50.603 --> 00:17:54.625
We had Sean Wise and Leah Clark.

00:17:54.644 --> 00:17:55.385
Leah Clark.

00:17:56.544 --> 00:17:58.025
That was it, wasn't it?

00:17:58.065 --> 00:17:58.204
Yeah.

00:17:58.224 --> 00:17:59.586
And then John Anderson was there too.

00:17:59.806 --> 00:17:59.987
Yeah.

00:18:00.067 --> 00:18:00.926
Oh yeah.

00:18:01.347 --> 00:18:02.167
We know brother John.

00:18:03.669 --> 00:18:04.829
He'll be there again as well.

00:18:05.069 --> 00:18:05.391
Oh yeah.

00:18:05.411 --> 00:18:05.830
Fantastic.

00:18:05.931 --> 00:18:07.751
He's always a pleasure to be around.

00:18:08.692 --> 00:18:09.032
Um,

00:18:09.053 --> 00:18:10.835

00:18:36.566 --> 00:18:37.547

00:18:39.451 --> 00:18:41.731

fifteen to about one forty five.

And she has to get back on the

00:18:56.134 --> 00:18:57.855
plane and head back home.

00:18:57.895 --> 00:18:59.455
So, yeah, she's red eyeing it.

00:18:59.476 --> 00:18:59.655
She is.

00:18:59.675 --> 00:18:59.895
Gotcha.

00:18:59.915 --> 00:18:59.976
Wow.

00:19:00.056 --> 00:19:01.016
All right.

00:19:04.383 --> 00:19:05.203
Well, awesome.

00:19:05.443 --> 00:19:05.924
Sandlot,

00:19:06.005 --> 00:19:07.445
one of my all-time favorite movies.

00:19:08.047 --> 00:19:09.388
Super thrilled at the chance he's going to

00:19:09.429 --> 00:19:09.808
be there.

00:19:10.950 --> 00:19:12.271
Got the chance that Jess and I met

00:19:12.311 --> 00:19:14.775
him at a Birmingham Barons game a few

00:19:14.815 --> 00:19:15.315
years ago.

00:19:15.375 --> 00:19:15.816
He came.

00:19:15.836 --> 00:19:17.897
Yes, I went to that too.

00:19:17.917 --> 00:19:18.057
Oh, okay.

00:19:18.338 --> 00:19:21.982
Yeah.

00:19:22.022 --> 00:19:23.384
That movie's just classic.

00:19:23.403 --> 00:19:23.544
Oh, yeah.

00:19:23.564 --> 00:19:23.944
Yeah.

00:19:25.872 --> 00:19:26.953
If you don't want to meet them,

00:19:27.013 --> 00:19:29.036
just watch the movie before the show and

00:19:29.056 --> 00:19:33.862
you'll want to for sure.

00:19:34.182 --> 00:19:36.565
Every moment of that movie is just so

00:19:36.785 --> 00:19:37.685
special to me, man.

00:19:37.766 --> 00:19:40.229
I love it.

00:19:40.269 --> 00:19:40.430
Yeah.

00:19:40.490 --> 00:19:42.451
Definitely one that'll wrap you back into

00:19:42.471 --> 00:19:43.133
your childhood.

00:19:45.365 --> 00:19:49.829
We need to find a windy peppercorn maybe

00:19:49.869 --> 00:19:50.309
at the con.

00:19:50.329 --> 00:19:50.971
Somebody come up.

00:19:51.612 --> 00:19:57.438
Oh, yeah.

00:19:58.679 --> 00:20:01.521
So sports cards, vintage toys.

00:20:02.824 --> 00:20:04.566
You said you've got how many vendors there

00:20:04.586 --> 00:20:04.865
this year?

00:20:06.522 --> 00:20:08.003
I don't think I even counted or put

00:20:08.045 --> 00:20:08.884
numbers beside it,

00:20:08.904 --> 00:20:10.086
but I believe it's between eighty and

00:20:10.105 --> 00:20:10.306
ninety.

00:20:10.326 --> 00:20:11.688
Oh, that's great.

00:20:12.468 --> 00:20:13.189
Was it, is it,

00:20:13.249 --> 00:20:16.632
did it increase in size from July up

00:20:16.692 --> 00:20:18.012
until, did you get,

00:20:18.032 --> 00:20:19.433
see any increase in the size or about

00:20:19.453 --> 00:20:19.814
the same?

00:20:20.034 --> 00:20:22.016
About the same, just because we,

00:20:22.115 --> 00:20:24.577
a lot of people got two booths.

00:20:24.898 --> 00:20:25.179
Yeah.

00:20:25.219 --> 00:20:25.719
Okay.

00:20:25.798 --> 00:20:26.660
Which is fine with me,

00:20:26.680 --> 00:20:28.642
because the more people you got, really,

00:20:29.521 --> 00:20:31.403
more competition, you know.

00:20:31.463 --> 00:20:31.624
Right.

00:20:31.644 --> 00:20:32.244
In all honesty, so.

00:20:34.032 --> 00:20:35.733
should be good everybody should make

00:20:36.134 --> 00:20:38.756
really good money it's cheap to get in

00:20:38.895 --> 00:20:42.617
so and free parking free parking free

00:20:42.637 --> 00:20:47.740
parking is always a plus yeah we uh

00:20:48.059 --> 00:20:50.961
we we didn't know how to we didn't

00:20:50.981 --> 00:20:52.603
know what to expect being our first time

00:20:52.903 --> 00:20:54.884
being vendors so we went ahead and grabbed

00:20:55.403 --> 00:20:57.826
grabbed two booths i know kevin and his

00:20:57.846 --> 00:20:59.086
fiancee are going to be bringing a lot

00:20:59.125 --> 00:21:00.267
of stuff up and i'm

00:21:01.403 --> 00:21:02.663
if we got the space in the car

00:21:02.844 --> 00:21:04.203
and Bo is going to let us borrow

00:21:04.223 --> 00:21:05.585
the back of his truck to bring some

00:21:05.625 --> 00:21:06.545
stuff up as well.

00:21:06.625 --> 00:21:08.546
So depending on, you know,

00:21:08.566 --> 00:21:09.446
how much you've got, hopefully,

00:21:10.027 --> 00:21:12.748
hopefully we'll be able to fill our space.

00:21:12.827 --> 00:21:15.169
You can spread it out and do whatever

00:21:15.229 --> 00:21:16.470
you can bring another table,

00:21:16.569 --> 00:21:17.910
however you want,

00:21:17.930 --> 00:21:18.951
however you want to lay it out.

00:21:19.730 --> 00:21:20.852
Yeah.

00:21:20.872 --> 00:21:21.571
Fantastic.

00:21:22.451 --> 00:21:22.592
Yeah.

00:21:22.612 --> 00:21:24.252
We went to Lowe's a couple of days

00:21:24.292 --> 00:21:24.992
ago and got some,

00:21:25.433 --> 00:21:27.294
got some plastic shelves and everything.

00:21:27.334 --> 00:21:29.154
And I've got another table that we'll

00:21:29.174 --> 00:21:30.175
probably wind up bringing.

00:21:30.236 --> 00:21:30.496
So yeah,

00:21:31.448 --> 00:21:34.048
You know what, talk about if, uh,

00:21:34.068 --> 00:21:35.869
what it's like to be a vendor at

00:21:35.970 --> 00:21:36.490
one of these.

00:21:38.411 --> 00:21:41.951
Uh, so to me, it just seems like,

00:21:43.153 --> 00:21:44.712
I guess, cause I'm biased, you know,

00:21:44.732 --> 00:21:45.094
I run it, uh,

00:21:47.233 --> 00:21:48.775
the three main things I deal in is

00:21:48.835 --> 00:21:50.615
Pokemon comics and video games.

00:21:50.955 --> 00:21:52.395
And those three things seem to be the

00:21:52.436 --> 00:21:54.217
best along with poise.

00:21:54.336 --> 00:21:55.938
I don't really deal much in toys.

00:21:56.872 --> 00:21:59.294
But like the stuff that I'm into seems

00:21:59.314 --> 00:22:00.374
to do very well.

00:22:01.234 --> 00:22:02.855
I don't know if I projected it into

00:22:02.895 --> 00:22:05.718
the con or not, but either way,

00:22:05.738 --> 00:22:08.259
it just, as long as you're fairly priced,

00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:10.780
you're a good salesman.

00:22:11.221 --> 00:22:12.701
You'll always do good.

00:22:13.343 --> 00:22:13.583
Yeah.

00:22:18.589 --> 00:22:18.869
Sorry.

00:22:20.811 --> 00:22:22.213
I saw that you had a thought there.

00:22:23.335 --> 00:22:24.155
And the older I get,

00:22:24.195 --> 00:22:25.817
the more frequently they slip out of my

00:22:25.857 --> 00:22:26.097
head.

00:22:26.858 --> 00:22:28.259
Hey, welcome to Bama Geeks, everybody.

00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:30.583
We're old folks and we talk about our

00:22:30.702 --> 00:22:31.042
oldness.

00:22:34.292 --> 00:22:35.993
I would say also, you know,

00:22:36.614 --> 00:22:37.914
this being y'all's first time vending,

00:22:38.615 --> 00:22:39.756
I don't vend a lot neither,

00:22:40.715 --> 00:22:42.416
but Derek goes all over, you know,

00:22:42.436 --> 00:22:44.097
he goes all over the state pretty much.

00:22:45.318 --> 00:22:46.019
It's an art.

00:22:46.239 --> 00:22:48.380
It's crazy to see some of the booths

00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:50.520
and how much time they've, you know,

00:22:50.580 --> 00:22:51.781
got it figured out.

00:22:51.882 --> 00:22:53.502
Basically they figured out how they need

00:22:53.522 --> 00:22:53.962
to do it.

00:22:54.864 --> 00:22:56.544
I'm lost every time I'm just coming in

00:22:56.564 --> 00:22:57.744
there, throwing stuff in there.

00:22:57.765 --> 00:22:57.904
And,

00:22:58.565 --> 00:22:59.905
and then I'm amazed by all the ones

00:22:59.925 --> 00:23:01.227
that look real, real good.

00:23:01.307 --> 00:23:01.446
And,

00:23:03.136 --> 00:23:03.896
But yeah,

00:23:04.497 --> 00:23:06.238
it definitely takes some time to get used

00:23:06.278 --> 00:23:06.818
to what you're doing.

00:23:06.838 --> 00:23:09.859
So good luck to you guys.

00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:12.340
Yeah, we're definitely going to need it.

00:23:13.501 --> 00:23:14.001
You know,

00:23:14.082 --> 00:23:16.324
I've been going to conventions since

00:23:16.584 --> 00:23:17.644
nineteen ninety three.

00:23:18.224 --> 00:23:19.565
And like I said,

00:23:19.585 --> 00:23:21.385
I've never been to it or anything before.

00:23:21.465 --> 00:23:23.907
So I'm hoping the booth is going to

00:23:23.928 --> 00:23:24.548
look all right.

00:23:24.928 --> 00:23:27.890
You know, we've got an eight foot banner.

00:23:30.010 --> 00:23:30.932
that we're going to put up.

00:23:31.172 --> 00:23:32.313
It's going to have a QR code where

00:23:32.353 --> 00:23:33.573
people can go to the website.

00:23:35.234 --> 00:23:38.016
But yeah, as far as layout,

00:23:38.136 --> 00:23:39.718
I have no idea how this is going

00:23:39.738 --> 00:23:41.578
to go.

00:23:41.598 --> 00:23:42.799
Just whatever you like.

00:23:42.819 --> 00:23:44.300
Like you go to a convention,

00:23:44.320 --> 00:23:46.182
if you see a booth, you're like, Oh,

00:23:46.201 --> 00:23:46.801
that looks good.

00:23:46.821 --> 00:23:48.523
Just, you know, imitate that.

00:23:48.644 --> 00:23:48.903
I mean,

00:23:51.188 --> 00:23:52.208
That's kind of what I do.

00:23:52.288 --> 00:23:54.829
I get ideas from other people and it's

00:23:55.630 --> 00:23:57.811
kind of formed in my own Frankenstein of

00:23:57.832 --> 00:23:58.271
a booth.

00:23:58.332 --> 00:24:01.193
So it works great now.

00:24:02.757 --> 00:24:02.997
Awesome.

00:24:03.116 --> 00:24:04.858
Bama Freddy says, vendor advice,

00:24:04.939 --> 00:24:06.200
bring your own hand truck.

00:24:07.299 --> 00:24:08.000
Yeah,

00:24:08.020 --> 00:24:09.422
we do have one I can get my

00:24:09.481 --> 00:24:10.262
hands on.

00:24:10.442 --> 00:24:11.824
I'm going to one up you there.

00:24:12.044 --> 00:24:13.464
I'm actually bringing my own cart.

00:24:13.605 --> 00:24:15.125
That's like an expandable cart that you

00:24:15.145 --> 00:24:17.667
can put stuff into.

00:24:17.847 --> 00:24:19.730
A big chunk at a time.

00:24:20.130 --> 00:24:20.369
Yeah.

00:24:20.990 --> 00:24:21.310
Yeah.

00:24:21.371 --> 00:24:22.731
So yeah, I'm prepared.

00:24:23.330 --> 00:24:23.550
Yeah,

00:24:23.570 --> 00:24:25.392
that load-in time when everybody's at the

00:24:25.432 --> 00:24:26.913
front, it's chaotic.

00:24:26.932 --> 00:24:27.752
Yeah.

00:24:27.792 --> 00:24:28.854
Yeah,

00:24:28.894 --> 00:24:29.814
that's what I was about to ask you

00:24:29.834 --> 00:24:30.074
about.

00:24:30.153 --> 00:24:30.775
You know,

00:24:30.795 --> 00:24:31.795
we've got to be there early in the

00:24:31.835 --> 00:24:34.517
morning on Saturday to load in.

00:24:34.576 --> 00:24:39.278
What's that process like?

00:24:39.318 --> 00:24:40.980
You guys are going to have fun.

00:24:41.420 --> 00:24:43.141
This is the best part of the con,

00:24:43.201 --> 00:24:43.560
right?

00:24:43.621 --> 00:24:46.343
The load-in.

00:24:46.383 --> 00:24:48.183
You got my first little message when I

00:24:48.223 --> 00:24:50.805
texted you about it's going to be chaotic.

00:24:50.845 --> 00:24:52.346
We can't go in the day before.

00:24:52.405 --> 00:24:52.586
Mm-hmm.

00:24:53.463 --> 00:24:56.546
So, that kind of segues into, you know,

00:24:56.705 --> 00:24:58.767
trying the two-day one in the future.

00:24:59.686 --> 00:25:03.108
So, me, Wolf, and Terry, the other owner,

00:25:04.490 --> 00:25:05.509
we usually go in,

00:25:05.710 --> 00:25:07.230
we take one of the measuring tapes,

00:25:07.250 --> 00:25:08.692
and we measure every spot.

00:25:09.392 --> 00:25:10.893
They don't want us putting duct tape or

00:25:10.932 --> 00:25:13.614
anything down or painter's tape or

00:25:13.653 --> 00:25:14.075
anything.

00:25:14.394 --> 00:25:15.075
Yeah.

00:25:15.115 --> 00:25:16.736
So, this time,

00:25:16.776 --> 00:25:19.497
they're just going to go by my, like,

00:25:19.557 --> 00:25:22.239
two-D layout, and it's not to scale, so...

00:25:23.496 --> 00:25:25.198
just have to have all the vendors work

00:25:25.218 --> 00:25:26.398
with each other, you know,

00:25:26.419 --> 00:25:27.380
to understand your,

00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:30.402
the length of your space and just kind

00:25:30.422 --> 00:25:31.462
of, yeah.

00:25:31.482 --> 00:25:31.702
Cool.

00:25:31.722 --> 00:25:31.943
Okay.

00:25:31.963 --> 00:25:33.005
So come prepared to fight.

00:25:33.025 --> 00:25:33.204
I got you.

00:25:33.224 --> 00:25:34.005
Y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:34.026 --> 00:25:36.268
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:36.307 --> 00:25:37.769
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:37.788 --> 00:25:38.490
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:38.509 --> 00:25:39.309
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:39.329 --> 00:25:41.192
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:41.211 --> 00:25:42.732
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:42.772 --> 00:25:43.653
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:43.673 --> 00:25:44.694
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:44.714 --> 00:25:47.637
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:47.657 --> 00:25:48.278
y'all got, y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:48.298 --> 00:25:48.719
y'all got, y'all got,

00:25:48.739 --> 00:25:48.999
y'all got

00:25:49.383 --> 00:25:50.624
we're not going to be able to measure

00:25:50.663 --> 00:25:52.944
anything they wouldn't even let you do

00:25:52.984 --> 00:25:58.508
painters tape it comes up wow government

00:25:58.528 --> 00:26:01.769
government building red gobbledygook hello

00:26:01.969 --> 00:26:04.530
hello hello you don't need to be playing

00:26:04.590 --> 00:26:06.632
on you especially given your profession

00:26:06.652 --> 00:26:07.892
you know people should be playing on lift

00:26:07.932 --> 00:26:11.054
trucks or segway yeah definitely fall off

00:26:11.114 --> 00:26:11.574
one of those

00:26:15.088 --> 00:26:16.071
And Bama Freddy says,

00:26:16.152 --> 00:26:18.417
setup is always more fun than close-up.

00:26:18.719 --> 00:26:20.242
Yeah, that's true.

00:26:20.323 --> 00:26:21.605
All right.

00:26:21.625 --> 00:26:21.727
Well,

00:26:21.747 --> 00:26:23.431
I'm looking forward to trying that out.

00:26:24.228 --> 00:26:26.049
I will say last year when we were,

00:26:26.069 --> 00:26:26.309
you know,

00:26:26.349 --> 00:26:27.790
we were there up to like the end

00:26:27.851 --> 00:26:28.111
of it.

00:26:28.672 --> 00:26:30.032
And the people,

00:26:30.073 --> 00:26:31.273
you could tell the vendors that just

00:26:31.294 --> 00:26:32.515
didn't want to take their stuff home

00:26:32.535 --> 00:26:33.695
because I would go up and I'd be

00:26:33.715 --> 00:26:35.096
like, this looks really cool.

00:26:35.156 --> 00:26:36.738
And I had several people that are like,

00:26:36.778 --> 00:26:37.358
oh, you like it?

00:26:37.398 --> 00:26:37.959
Just take it.

00:26:40.121 --> 00:26:41.362
I don't want to take this home.

00:26:42.182 --> 00:26:43.563
I'm going to make you a really awesome

00:26:43.623 --> 00:26:43.884
deal.

00:26:46.885 --> 00:26:47.886
It's a great deal free.

00:26:48.106 --> 00:26:48.988
Just take it.

00:26:50.002 --> 00:26:50.143
Yeah,

00:26:50.202 --> 00:26:53.144
we were talking in the pre-show chat with

00:26:53.164 --> 00:26:55.586
these guys about all the Funko Pops and

00:26:55.645 --> 00:26:57.626
stuff that you see at a lot of

00:26:57.646 --> 00:26:58.167
conventions.

00:26:58.208 --> 00:27:00.009
And we have a few that we may

00:27:00.068 --> 00:27:00.429
bring.

00:27:00.469 --> 00:27:03.029
And I imagine probably about an hour

00:27:03.049 --> 00:27:04.151
before the show closes,

00:27:04.451 --> 00:27:06.271
you might be able just to grab them

00:27:06.332 --> 00:27:09.273
off our shelves and just go.

00:27:09.433 --> 00:27:10.654
If you want it that bad,

00:27:11.095 --> 00:27:13.415
I just will let you take that home

00:27:13.455 --> 00:27:14.336
and be happy with it.

00:27:14.517 --> 00:27:16.136
just don't mention the price point yet

00:27:16.198 --> 00:27:18.718

00:27:38.529 --> 00:27:39.790
I'm definitely going to look for you then

00:27:39.851 --> 00:27:43.392
because Jess and I are just now really,

00:27:43.413 --> 00:27:44.432
you know,

00:27:44.452 --> 00:27:46.114
we've talked about Dungeons and Dragons on

00:27:46.153 --> 00:27:47.535
the show before.

00:27:47.714 --> 00:27:48.494
And, you know,

00:27:48.575 --> 00:27:50.476
Jess and I have always said we're going

00:27:50.496 --> 00:27:50.996
to keep doing it.

00:27:51.016 --> 00:27:51.817
We're going to keep going.

00:27:52.957 --> 00:27:53.498
For Christmas,

00:27:53.518 --> 00:27:55.618
she got me the Stranger Things Hellfire

00:27:55.638 --> 00:27:58.059
Club D&D box set.

00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:02.082
And I definitely need some miniatures at

00:28:02.122 --> 00:28:02.682
some point.

00:28:02.721 --> 00:28:04.923
So we'll definitely come by and see your

00:28:04.942 --> 00:28:05.903
booth for sure.

00:28:05.963 --> 00:28:06.523
That's cool.

00:28:07.884 --> 00:28:09.744
Yeah.

00:28:09.765 --> 00:28:13.006
Um, so for people who,

00:28:13.086 --> 00:28:14.807
who may be attending for the first time,

00:28:14.846 --> 00:28:15.988
whatever, what are your hours?

00:28:16.048 --> 00:28:17.968
What can they expect as far as getting

00:28:18.008 --> 00:28:18.449
in there?

00:28:19.209 --> 00:28:19.929
Um, you know,

00:28:20.209 --> 00:28:21.869
paying to get in and everything else for

00:28:21.910 --> 00:28:23.471
Saturday.

00:28:23.530 --> 00:28:25.771
So, uh, it starts at ten, ten AM,

00:28:25.852 --> 00:28:25.971
uh,

00:28:26.711 --> 00:28:28.873
but ten to eleven is VIP is what

00:28:28.913 --> 00:28:29.353
we call it.

00:28:29.373 --> 00:28:31.433
But it just, that first hour,

00:28:31.554 --> 00:28:32.894
it's going to cost ten dollars to get

00:28:32.914 --> 00:28:33.755
in there that time.

00:28:34.255 --> 00:28:35.076
And then at eleven, uh,

00:28:36.490 --> 00:28:38.512
And it turns into five dollars an hour.

00:28:38.532 --> 00:28:40.314
I mean, ten to five dollars.

00:28:40.334 --> 00:28:41.095
Five dollars an hour?

00:28:41.115 --> 00:28:41.255
Wow.

00:28:41.295 --> 00:28:41.494
Gotcha.

00:28:41.515 --> 00:28:45.057
Five dollars an hour.

00:28:45.178 --> 00:28:45.817
And then we close.

00:28:45.857 --> 00:28:49.881
What was the price of my stuff?

00:28:49.901 --> 00:28:50.582
We close.

00:28:51.242 --> 00:28:55.306
The con closes at six, eight, six p.m.

00:28:55.385 --> 00:28:56.626
I'm all over the place there, Kevin.

00:28:58.499 --> 00:29:00.080
That's what you get from broadcasting from

00:29:00.101 --> 00:29:05.467
your bathroom, okay?

00:29:05.586 --> 00:29:06.448
It's not a bathroom.

00:29:10.352 --> 00:29:10.951
Oh, my.

00:29:11.532 --> 00:29:12.614
It finally says, I got you.

00:29:12.634 --> 00:29:13.535
That's my bread and butter.

00:29:13.674 --> 00:29:13.915
All right.

00:29:14.076 --> 00:29:16.077
We're coming to see you.

00:29:16.178 --> 00:29:16.798
Absolutely.

00:29:17.542 --> 00:29:17.603
Uh,

00:29:17.643 --> 00:29:19.084
do y'all have any other questions about

00:29:19.144 --> 00:29:19.825
loading?

00:29:19.865 --> 00:29:20.905
I know it's a,

00:29:20.925 --> 00:29:22.307
we got a lot of questions about loading.

00:29:22.366 --> 00:29:23.387
Yeah.

00:29:23.468 --> 00:29:26.250
I'm going to wing it, man.

00:29:26.309 --> 00:29:28.352
We'll see everybody else kind of loaded up

00:29:28.372 --> 00:29:29.132
at the front door.

00:29:29.212 --> 00:29:31.554
It's just going to be crazy.

00:29:31.714 --> 00:29:32.996
But if you got cards and stuff,

00:29:33.016 --> 00:29:34.237
you can go ahead and pull in the

00:29:34.257 --> 00:29:36.397
parking lot and just carry it in.

00:29:36.438 --> 00:29:37.538
It's just going to be further.

00:29:38.059 --> 00:29:40.501
Uh, y'all are in the main room.

00:29:40.541 --> 00:29:41.563
So just, you know,

00:29:41.603 --> 00:29:42.462
you go straight through, uh,

00:29:44.194 --> 00:29:45.635
you got to sign a sheet and all

00:29:45.655 --> 00:29:48.696
that good stuff but yeah it's organized

00:29:48.717 --> 00:29:53.298
chaos is what you're saying so and and

00:29:53.338 --> 00:29:55.199
loading in is is everything just through

00:29:55.219 --> 00:29:56.660
the front door of the of the center

00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:59.820
there yeah uh once everybody gets signed

00:29:59.901 --> 00:30:01.701
in there's another set of doors for the

00:30:01.741 --> 00:30:04.143
people in the hallway and the other room

00:30:04.282 --> 00:30:07.423
but there's i mean you guys came there

00:30:07.443 --> 00:30:09.865
was like multiple doors around that main

00:30:09.904 --> 00:30:11.526
lobby and you can go in whatever door

00:30:11.726 --> 00:30:13.866
it'll be unlocked okay

00:30:15.352 --> 00:30:16.333
It's going to be chaos.

00:30:16.353 --> 00:30:17.294
There's a lot of people,

00:30:18.135 --> 00:30:19.738
a lot of people.

00:30:19.778 --> 00:30:20.979
So load in is at seven.

00:30:21.680 --> 00:30:22.260
Yeah.

00:30:22.401 --> 00:30:22.641
Okay.

00:30:23.281 --> 00:30:25.183
So we go in and how,

00:30:25.365 --> 00:30:27.748
how's usually like the traffic pattern

00:30:27.788 --> 00:30:28.387
that early?

00:30:29.369 --> 00:30:30.270
Like,

00:30:30.290 --> 00:30:31.112
cause I know a lot of people are

00:30:31.132 --> 00:30:32.534
going to have stuff in their cars trying

00:30:32.554 --> 00:30:33.355
to bring everything in.

00:30:34.849 --> 00:30:36.230
Yeah, and they usually beat us there.

00:30:36.250 --> 00:30:37.891
I'll get there at six thirty and there's

00:30:37.911 --> 00:30:38.991
already ten people there.

00:30:40.393 --> 00:30:42.854
I understand three hours is it's tough

00:30:43.013 --> 00:30:45.494
loading like for people like Kip and stuff

00:30:45.515 --> 00:30:47.415
like they got three big booths of vintage

00:30:47.455 --> 00:30:50.376
toys and you know,

00:30:50.396 --> 00:30:52.458
their own it's crunch time, you know,

00:30:52.518 --> 00:30:53.298
for three hours.

00:30:53.318 --> 00:30:56.779
So we'll just stay out of their way.

00:30:56.839 --> 00:30:58.000
A little cart full of stuff.

00:30:58.040 --> 00:31:01.221
I'll just stay out of their way.

00:31:01.281 --> 00:31:02.803
All the professional vendors will have a

00:31:02.863 --> 00:31:04.523
lot more stuff than we've got coming in.

00:31:05.972 --> 00:31:08.753
We've got season vendors all the way to,

00:31:09.474 --> 00:31:10.535
this will be their first time,

00:31:10.654 --> 00:31:11.455
kind of like you guys.

00:31:11.596 --> 00:31:13.176
So it's just a good mix of,

00:31:14.257 --> 00:31:16.798
I guess, expert versus beginner.

00:31:17.298 --> 00:31:17.558
Cool.

00:31:17.578 --> 00:31:18.759
There we go.

00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:20.921
Big E, one of our comic vendors.

00:31:20.941 --> 00:31:23.102
Big E Comics is super excited as usual.

00:31:23.321 --> 00:31:27.223
Big E will be gassing CollectorCon bound

00:31:27.243 --> 00:31:28.023

00:31:28.064 --> 00:31:28.505
Woo-hoo!

00:31:29.684 --> 00:31:29.825
Yeah.

00:31:29.845 --> 00:31:30.925
Looking forward to seeing you there.

00:31:31.865 --> 00:31:32.307
Take care.

00:31:34.113 --> 00:31:36.477
But you just check in with Kylie,

00:31:36.537 --> 00:31:37.778
my girlfriend at the front.

00:31:38.460 --> 00:31:39.340
She'll get you signed in,

00:31:39.361 --> 00:31:40.722
get your vendor wristbands,

00:31:40.782 --> 00:31:42.045
and go right in.

00:31:43.007 --> 00:31:43.708
Fantastic.

00:31:47.057 --> 00:31:48.638
So, Darnay, late to the show.

00:31:48.699 --> 00:31:50.160
Which show are y'all talking about?

00:31:50.461 --> 00:31:50.701
Well,

00:31:51.721 --> 00:31:52.803
it is a little bit of a drive

00:31:52.823 --> 00:31:53.703
for you, Darnay.

00:31:53.763 --> 00:31:56.446
I wish you could come up from the

00:31:56.487 --> 00:31:58.490
Daytona Beach area there.

00:32:00.951 --> 00:32:02.814
But we're talking about Gadsden Collector

00:32:02.834 --> 00:32:03.154
Con.

00:32:03.555 --> 00:32:04.757

carry a handful in on the first trip,

00:32:10.770 --> 00:32:12.791
sign in and find your booth.

00:32:12.811 --> 00:32:13.752
Start trucking it all in.

00:32:13.792 --> 00:32:14.233
There you go.

00:32:14.334 --> 00:32:15.355

00:32:16.055 --> 00:32:16.776
This man knows.

00:32:18.726 --> 00:32:19.267
All right.

00:32:21.669 --> 00:32:23.250
can probably bring.

00:32:24.131 --> 00:32:24.530
Poor Bo.

00:32:24.550 --> 00:32:25.692

00:32:25.731 --> 00:32:26.011
him.

00:32:26.813 --> 00:32:29.234
That is my contribution to this show.

00:32:29.355 --> 00:32:33.397
I'm not bringing anything to sell or

00:32:33.417 --> 00:32:33.739
anything,

00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:35.279
but I'm going to be part of it.

00:32:35.339 --> 00:32:37.082
That's my part I'm doing.

00:32:37.201 --> 00:32:38.923
You will be selling your labor, sir.

00:32:39.423 --> 00:32:39.523

You got to have people help you at

00:32:49.307 --> 00:32:49.768
the booth.

00:32:49.788 --> 00:32:49.988
Yeah.

00:32:50.989 --> 00:32:53.450
My brother, he wouldn't charge me,

00:32:53.509 --> 00:32:54.830
but I give him money to help me

00:32:54.851 --> 00:32:57.512
because it is very busy.

00:32:57.573 --> 00:32:59.193

I think, setting up.

00:34:11.503 --> 00:34:11.643
Wow.

00:34:12.443 --> 00:34:14.385
Well, that's good.

00:34:14.405 --> 00:34:14.925
All right.

00:34:14.985 --> 00:34:15.885
That's some dedication.

00:34:18.847 --> 00:34:21.829
But there are some discussions.

00:34:22.030 --> 00:34:24.150
You're talking about people coming in for

00:34:24.271 --> 00:34:24.532
one day,

00:34:24.552 --> 00:34:26.693
but there are discussions about expanding

00:34:26.733 --> 00:34:27.273
this a little bit?

00:34:27.293 --> 00:34:30.596
Yes.

00:34:30.615 --> 00:34:31.556
There's discussions.

00:34:33.498 --> 00:34:36.059
We hope in July that we'll do a

00:34:36.099 --> 00:34:36.840
two-day con.

00:34:37.800 --> 00:34:40.262
but it will be most likely a Friday

00:34:40.601 --> 00:34:43.643
night and Saturday instead of no Sunday.

00:34:43.664 --> 00:34:45.724
Yeah.

00:34:45.784 --> 00:34:47.385
Which of course works really well because

00:34:47.666 --> 00:34:47.965
like you,

00:34:48.025 --> 00:34:50.568
I think you guys had mentioned that that

00:34:50.608 --> 00:34:51.768
makes it easier to just go ahead and

00:34:51.807 --> 00:34:53.349
get set up because Saturday is the big

00:34:53.409 --> 00:34:53.949
day, right?

00:34:54.289 --> 00:34:55.610
You already have your stuff set up and

00:34:55.630 --> 00:34:56.690
then you won't have to worry about it

00:34:56.731 --> 00:34:57.112
as much.

00:34:58.012 --> 00:34:58.592
Yeah, we would,

00:34:58.793 --> 00:35:00.653
that gives us more than three hours to

00:35:00.713 --> 00:35:01.233
set up.

00:35:01.494 --> 00:35:02.894
So that,

00:35:02.914 --> 00:35:04.695
that will be pretty helpful for I think

00:35:04.815 --> 00:35:05.936
us and the vendors and,

00:35:07.213 --> 00:35:10.173
everyone involved we gotta challenge

00:35:10.213 --> 00:35:12.474
ourselves as far as like making a vip

00:35:12.876 --> 00:35:14.956
weekend bundle and figuring out what we're

00:35:14.976 --> 00:35:16.617
gonna do and how we're gonna do it

00:35:17.958 --> 00:35:19.077
so that'll be fun too you know

00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:23.041
With that growth comes those challenges

00:35:23.081 --> 00:35:23.842
sometimes, right?

00:35:25.422 --> 00:35:26.623
Well, that and, you know, and Saturdays,

00:35:26.643 --> 00:35:28.125
like you said, it would be good because,

00:35:28.144 --> 00:35:30.306
you know, Saturday is always your any con,

00:35:30.907 --> 00:35:33.048
any con event like that.

00:35:33.108 --> 00:35:34.309
Saturday is always your day.

00:35:34.829 --> 00:35:36.170
It's like you got the biggest crowds on

00:35:36.251 --> 00:35:36.952
Saturdays.

00:35:37.431 --> 00:35:38.853
Then you do any other time.

00:35:39.072 --> 00:35:40.114
If it's a weekend con,

00:35:40.134 --> 00:35:41.574
that's your best day.

00:35:42.728 --> 00:35:43.510
I get it a lot.

00:35:43.590 --> 00:35:43.989
They're like,

00:35:44.070 --> 00:35:45.532
can we not come in the night before?

00:35:45.552 --> 00:35:45.992
I'm like, well,

00:35:46.012 --> 00:35:49.655
they would just charge us double vendor

00:35:49.695 --> 00:35:50.014
booths.

00:35:50.054 --> 00:35:51.056
Everything would be double.

00:35:51.096 --> 00:35:52.858
Like this just doesn't seem worth it for

00:35:52.978 --> 00:35:54.079
one day, you know,

00:35:54.099 --> 00:35:54.818
a day of setting up.

00:35:54.858 --> 00:35:57.201
But if we're able to sell that first

00:35:57.240 --> 00:35:59.302
day and set up and have another day,

00:36:00.043 --> 00:36:00.764
make it worth it.

00:36:01.664 --> 00:36:01.885
Yeah.

00:36:02.920 --> 00:36:03.400
Absolutely.

00:36:03.822 --> 00:36:05.181
Bam, I'm afraid he says lobby swap.

00:36:05.222 --> 00:36:05.501
Hey,

00:36:07.083 --> 00:36:10.324
we witnessed a good old lobby swap at

00:36:10.644 --> 00:36:12.585
Toylanta when we went this last time.

00:36:12.606 --> 00:36:13.706
And that was, that was interesting.

00:36:13.766 --> 00:36:14.887
That was very interesting.

00:36:14.907 --> 00:36:15.148
Yeah.

00:36:15.188 --> 00:36:16.969
Just people just setting up inside their

00:36:16.989 --> 00:36:18.608
hotel rooms.

00:36:19.769 --> 00:36:21.251
Out in the hallway at the hotel.

00:36:21.331 --> 00:36:22.851
It was just like, here's our stuff.

00:36:22.911 --> 00:36:25.032
We're laying it out, you know?

00:36:25.152 --> 00:36:25.253
Yeah.

00:36:25.293 --> 00:36:26.773
We got there late, but we did that.

00:36:26.893 --> 00:36:27.994
I bought a bunch of stuff.

00:36:28.014 --> 00:36:29.394
That was, that was awesome.

00:36:29.414 --> 00:36:29.614
Yeah.

00:36:29.695 --> 00:36:29.876
Yeah.

00:36:31.452 --> 00:36:31.853
I thought it was,

00:36:32.313 --> 00:36:33.253
I was excited about it,

00:36:33.273 --> 00:36:34.393
but I thought it was a little awkward.

00:36:34.414 --> 00:36:35.034
And I was like,

00:36:39.217 --> 00:36:40.759
then you get stuck and you're like, well,

00:36:40.778 --> 00:36:41.458
I don't know.

00:36:41.478 --> 00:36:42.820
This was just a little weird for me,

00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:46.822
but this in the hotel room.

00:36:46.842 --> 00:36:48.344
So in the lobby party, it was fine,

00:36:48.385 --> 00:36:49.224
but in the hotels.

00:36:49.625 --> 00:36:52.407
Hey man,

00:36:52.467 --> 00:36:53.427
I got something for you here in my

00:36:53.467 --> 00:36:57.751
hotel room.

00:36:57.791 --> 00:36:58.492
Don't worry about it.

00:37:00.677 --> 00:37:00.836
Babe,

00:37:00.876 --> 00:37:02.219
I'm afraid it says lobby swap and room

00:37:02.259 --> 00:37:08.826
swaps where you find fun and creepy stuff.

00:37:08.846 --> 00:37:09.146
Thankfully,

00:37:09.186 --> 00:37:11.027
we didn't hit anything really weird at

00:37:11.068 --> 00:37:11.909
Toylanta this year.

00:37:12.829 --> 00:37:13.110
We just,

00:37:13.150 --> 00:37:14.351
we made a guy who set up his

00:37:14.391 --> 00:37:15.733
DJ equipment in the lobby,

00:37:16.333 --> 00:37:18.016
made him mad because everybody came

00:37:18.115 --> 00:37:20.739
swarming in and setting up and he died.

00:37:20.942 --> 00:37:22.762
We did not know that was where his

00:37:22.802 --> 00:37:23.842
karaoke set up.

00:37:24.023 --> 00:37:25.903
Because what you needed, a lobby swap,

00:37:25.943 --> 00:37:27.724
a toy swap, is a karaoke guy.

00:37:28.045 --> 00:37:31.206
And he was mad that people crowded his

00:37:31.266 --> 00:37:31.846
space out.

00:37:31.865 --> 00:37:33.025
But to be fair,

00:37:33.226 --> 00:37:34.967
nobody knew that that was the intention.

00:37:34.987 --> 00:37:36.248
We thought it belonged to the hotel.

00:37:38.182 --> 00:37:38.463
So, see,

00:37:39.224 --> 00:37:40.764
they're probably silently laughing right

00:37:40.784 --> 00:37:40.864
now.

00:37:40.885 --> 00:37:41.204
They're like,

00:37:41.806 --> 00:37:42.786
we were thinking about doing a – I

00:37:42.806 --> 00:37:47.650
mean, you know,

00:37:47.750 --> 00:37:49.711
I'm not saying that it's a bad idea,

00:37:49.871 --> 00:37:51.393
but, you know.

00:37:51.413 --> 00:37:52.914
Darnay says it gives Hobby Lobby a whole

00:37:52.954 --> 00:37:53.353
new meaning.

00:37:56.255 --> 00:37:57.878
We don't even have an announcement thing.

00:37:57.898 --> 00:37:58.818
You know, most cons,

00:37:58.838 --> 00:38:00.518
they have announcements over the speakers

00:38:00.539 --> 00:38:00.920
at each meeting.

00:38:01.320 --> 00:38:02.800
We haven't even got that far with it.

00:38:04.041 --> 00:38:05.342
We just yell across the room now.

00:38:06.023 --> 00:38:06.103
Yeah.

00:38:06.123 --> 00:38:07.724
Let me get you a couple of megaphones.

00:38:07.985 --> 00:38:14.128
Oh, well, okay.

00:38:14.829 --> 00:38:17.351
So moving it potentially to a two-day,

00:38:17.670 --> 00:38:19.612
do you have any other dates in mind

00:38:19.851 --> 00:38:20.213
this year?

00:38:20.233 --> 00:38:21.132
I know you said July.

00:38:21.594 --> 00:38:24.175
Yeah, July the twenty-fifth, right?

00:38:24.195 --> 00:38:25.956
July the twenty-fifth, yeah.

00:38:26.617 --> 00:38:29.079
And in April, April, what was it,

00:38:29.099 --> 00:38:29.699
the fourth?

00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:31.059
We're doing a card show.

00:38:32.440 --> 00:38:34.583
We had a lot of card vendors apply.

00:38:34.623 --> 00:38:37.204
We couldn't get most of them in because

00:38:37.224 --> 00:38:38.726
we're trying to vet it to where it's

00:38:38.746 --> 00:38:39.728
just a good mix.

00:38:40.608 --> 00:38:40.748
I mean,

00:38:40.768 --> 00:38:42.650
there's plenty of Pokemon and plenty of

00:38:42.670 --> 00:38:44.210
Super Ones at the con,

00:38:44.251 --> 00:38:48.034
but with everything,

00:38:48.074 --> 00:38:50.717
some people think it's too much or not

00:38:50.757 --> 00:38:51.137
enough,

00:38:51.177 --> 00:38:51.378
so

00:38:52.139 --> 00:38:52.800
Yeah.

00:38:52.820 --> 00:38:53.860
Keeping that even,

00:38:54.400 --> 00:38:56.661
somewhat even among the vendors,

00:38:56.702 --> 00:38:57.242
like you said,

00:38:57.302 --> 00:38:59.824
just prevents that oversaturation where,

00:39:00.425 --> 00:39:01.164
yeah, it's like, oh,

00:39:01.224 --> 00:39:02.306
every other thing I go to,

00:39:02.346 --> 00:39:04.047
somebody's got cards and yeah, it's,

00:39:04.226 --> 00:39:07.208
I'm sure it's tough to try to get

00:39:07.228 --> 00:39:08.010
who you want.

00:39:08.289 --> 00:39:09.271
Yeah.

00:39:09.952 --> 00:39:12.815
There's so many Pokemon vendors and sports

00:39:12.936 --> 00:39:13.596
card vendors.

00:39:14.317 --> 00:39:15.958
People that deal in toys or video games,

00:39:15.998 --> 00:39:17.059
they have cards as well.

00:39:18.179 --> 00:39:19.161
That's just how it goes.

00:39:19.360 --> 00:39:21.563
There's a lot of dedicated Pokemon vendors

00:39:21.583 --> 00:39:23.704
and sports card vendors.

00:39:23.744 --> 00:39:24.824
If we just do a card show in

00:39:24.885 --> 00:39:26.347
April, we'll be able to get everybody in.

00:39:28.007 --> 00:39:28.829
That's good.

00:39:28.869 --> 00:39:34.172
Cards are a hot commodity these days.

00:39:34.612 --> 00:39:36.155
I think Magic the Gathering has had a

00:39:36.195 --> 00:39:37.635
big resurgence here lately.

00:39:39.554 --> 00:39:46.838
One piece.

00:39:48.340 --> 00:39:48.619
Yeah.

00:39:48.659 --> 00:39:49.860
Okay.

00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:50.922
Trading card games,

00:39:50.981 --> 00:39:54.764
that's something that I've tried to get

00:39:54.824 --> 00:39:55.184
into.

00:39:55.244 --> 00:39:56.744
My brain has never been able to wrap

00:39:56.784 --> 00:39:58.567
my head around the rules for a lot

00:39:58.586 --> 00:39:59.306
of these things.

00:40:01.829 --> 00:40:03.869
So it's amazing to me how well people

00:40:04.210 --> 00:40:06.070
not only can play, but also...

00:40:07.286 --> 00:40:10.248
can really know the value of a lot

00:40:10.288 --> 00:40:12.228
of these cards.

00:40:12.369 --> 00:40:13.329
I see some of the prices,

00:40:13.369 --> 00:40:14.728
like we were talking beforehand,

00:40:14.768 --> 00:40:17.409
watching The King of Collectibles on

00:40:17.469 --> 00:40:20.291
Netflix and seeing what some of these

00:40:20.351 --> 00:40:21.630
cards, sports cards,

00:40:21.731 --> 00:40:22.811
Pokemon cards and everything,

00:40:23.172 --> 00:40:27.012
what they're going for is mind-blowing.

00:40:27.492 --> 00:40:27.612
Yeah.

00:40:27.632 --> 00:40:28.454
Yeah, it's every day.

00:40:28.534 --> 00:40:29.733
We're at Wolf Shop.

00:40:29.753 --> 00:40:31.835
We're buying and selling Pokemon every

00:40:31.875 --> 00:40:32.235
day.

00:40:32.315 --> 00:40:32.554
I mean...

00:40:33.288 --> 00:40:34.509
I don't think there's ever a day we

00:40:34.528 --> 00:40:36.809
don't sell at least a couple cards worth

00:40:36.829 --> 00:40:37.349
some money.

00:40:37.369 --> 00:40:41.273
So it's just a big thing.

00:40:41.353 --> 00:40:41.932
As I was telling them,

00:40:41.952 --> 00:40:43.333
like a lot of the kids who are

00:40:43.393 --> 00:40:44.393
younger kids now,

00:40:44.474 --> 00:40:46.315
they're getting into their mid to late

00:40:46.335 --> 00:40:47.635
twenties and early thirties.

00:40:47.655 --> 00:40:48.996
And they have that adult money to start

00:40:49.036 --> 00:40:50.597
kind of buying those things they really

00:40:50.637 --> 00:40:52.318
love and didn't have back then.

00:40:52.338 --> 00:40:54.239
So now that's why I'm thinking that's one

00:40:54.260 --> 00:40:56.902
of my hypothesis of why it's just bloomed

00:40:56.981 --> 00:40:57.422
as it has.

00:40:58.364 --> 00:40:59.786
Darnace said our big flea market here in

00:40:59.826 --> 00:41:01.387
Daytona is turning into more and more

00:41:01.447 --> 00:41:03.748
Pokemon and card vendors taking over.

00:41:05.369 --> 00:41:06.731
That's our generation getting older.

00:41:08.972 --> 00:41:09.693
That scares me.

00:41:10.815 --> 00:41:12.175
Pokemon is very volatile.

00:41:12.456 --> 00:41:14.597
It changes day to day.

00:41:15.378 --> 00:41:16.259
I don't put any...

00:41:16.318 --> 00:41:17.539
I have a big antique booth.

00:41:18.300 --> 00:41:20.722
I don't put any Pokemon there because I

00:41:20.742 --> 00:41:22.563
could lose out on twenty or thirty bucks

00:41:22.583 --> 00:41:23.284
because it went up.

00:41:23.523 --> 00:41:26.967
I live an hour away from Leeds.

00:41:28.731 --> 00:41:30.492
How do you keep up with market prices?

00:41:31.972 --> 00:41:33.813
I just use the app TCG player for

00:41:33.974 --> 00:41:34.614
Pokemon.

00:41:35.675 --> 00:41:36.994
And, you know,

00:41:37.034 --> 00:41:39.715
Wolf uses eBay and stuff for sports or

00:41:39.856 --> 00:41:42.016
one thirty point.

00:41:42.056 --> 00:41:42.277
Yeah.

00:41:43.257 --> 00:41:44.898
And Pokemon, I just depend on Derek.

00:41:44.918 --> 00:41:49.760
So that's all.

00:41:49.780 --> 00:41:50.559
That's your source.

00:41:50.739 --> 00:41:51.601
Good source to have.

00:41:52.681 --> 00:41:54.121
Your own market resource right there.

00:41:54.141 --> 00:41:54.222
Yeah.

00:41:56.400 --> 00:41:56.619
Yeah.

00:41:57.201 --> 00:41:57.320
Uh,

00:41:57.340 --> 00:41:59.523
Finley says Pokemon just changes so much,

00:41:59.563 --> 00:42:01.204
but it's addicting to open those packs.

00:42:01.284 --> 00:42:01.684
Yeah.

00:42:01.943 --> 00:42:02.324
Yeah.

00:42:02.364 --> 00:42:03.666
That's yeah.

00:42:03.706 --> 00:42:04.425
That's too, you know,

00:42:04.467 --> 00:42:06.367
noticing like just that, you know,

00:42:06.447 --> 00:42:08.009
everybody's doing, you know, the,

00:42:08.230 --> 00:42:10.231
the break boxes and the live, you know,

00:42:11.072 --> 00:42:12.393
the live sorting the cards,

00:42:12.452 --> 00:42:13.313
opening the packs.

00:42:13.373 --> 00:42:14.954
It's kind of like, it's like you said,

00:42:14.974 --> 00:42:16.576
there's, and people's like, Oh, you know,

00:42:16.596 --> 00:42:17.617
they, they pull them in.

00:42:17.637 --> 00:42:18.478
So what are they going to pull out

00:42:18.498 --> 00:42:19.018
of this pack?

00:42:19.038 --> 00:42:20.378
And it's exciting just to know,

00:42:20.418 --> 00:42:21.260
not my gosh.

00:42:21.400 --> 00:42:22.300
Yeah.

00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:24.103
Those YouTube videos are some of the

00:42:24.123 --> 00:42:25.204
funnest things to watch.

00:42:26.005 --> 00:42:27.606
People just like opening packs and things

00:42:27.646 --> 00:42:28.086
like that.

00:42:28.148 --> 00:42:29.929
Cause it's like, yeah, I don't,

00:42:30.010 --> 00:42:31.170
I don't want to bother myself,

00:42:31.231 --> 00:42:32.632
but I don't mind, you know,

00:42:32.652 --> 00:42:34.213
getting excited for other people doing it.

00:42:34.253 --> 00:42:35.896
That's awesome.

00:42:35.916 --> 00:42:35.996
Yeah.

00:42:36.016 --> 00:42:37.998
There's a video we just posted tonight on

00:42:38.077 --> 00:42:39.039
Wolf's Facebook.

00:42:39.079 --> 00:42:40.141
A guy came into the shop.

00:42:40.947 --> 00:42:42.608
I think about three or four hours ago

00:42:42.668 --> 00:42:44.590
and he opened up a five hundred dollar

00:42:44.630 --> 00:42:47.914
pack and hit the top hit.

00:42:48.034 --> 00:42:48.835
It's amazing.

00:42:48.856 --> 00:42:49.677
It was nice.

00:42:50.036 --> 00:42:50.577
Wow.

00:42:50.737 --> 00:42:52.300
It's a twenty five year old pack and

00:42:52.340 --> 00:42:55.043
he just decided to buy it and got

00:42:55.083 --> 00:42:55.903
the best card in it.

00:42:56.231 --> 00:42:58.733
Wow, that's great.

00:42:58.753 --> 00:43:00.235
I didn't think that card was just sitting

00:43:00.275 --> 00:43:00.755
there in that pack.

00:43:00.775 --> 00:43:02.137
That's crazy.

00:43:02.458 --> 00:43:02.918
Yeah.

00:43:02.938 --> 00:43:03.719
No kidding.

00:43:04.418 --> 00:43:05.880
I know a couple of years ago,

00:43:05.920 --> 00:43:08.001
I was buying the autographed Star Wars,

00:43:08.623 --> 00:43:09.664
the Topps cards.

00:43:09.684 --> 00:43:11.344
I would buy a couple of boxes of

00:43:11.385 --> 00:43:11.666
those,

00:43:12.365 --> 00:43:14.007
and the hits in there were so bad.

00:43:14.467 --> 00:43:14.807
It's like,

00:43:15.068 --> 00:43:16.409
I can't put out money on that.

00:43:17.110 --> 00:43:18.492
I didn't get a return on investment,

00:43:18.512 --> 00:43:19.713
so that kind of made me a little

00:43:19.733 --> 00:43:20.413
bit gun-shy.

00:43:22.195 --> 00:43:22.875
It's just like...

00:43:23.215 --> 00:43:25.597
But it's addicting to open those.

00:43:25.657 --> 00:43:27.237
It's like a form of gambling, I mean,

00:43:27.297 --> 00:43:28.978
in a sense, when you think about it.

00:43:29.059 --> 00:43:30.721
It really is.

00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:33.902
You're hoping for that big win there.

00:43:35.043 --> 00:43:37.605
Wolf had a Ray Park out of five

00:43:38.085 --> 00:43:38.726
from Tops,

00:43:38.806 --> 00:43:41.047
and he got like four hundred bucks out

00:43:41.108 --> 00:43:41.248
of it.

00:43:41.268 --> 00:43:41.867
It was a good one.

00:43:43.750 --> 00:43:44.610
I had a Jar Jar Binks out of

00:43:44.630 --> 00:43:44.849
five.

00:43:44.869 --> 00:43:49.032
But it sold for like a hundred bucks,

00:43:49.152 --> 00:43:49.193
so...

00:43:50.527 --> 00:43:51.327
There's money in those.

00:43:51.728 --> 00:43:52.668
Mesa impressed.

00:43:56.313 --> 00:43:57.233
I was looking at it last night.

00:43:57.253 --> 00:43:58.094
I forget the character,

00:43:58.135 --> 00:44:01.057
but there was Anna.

00:44:02.398 --> 00:44:02.880
Oh, heck.

00:44:04.461 --> 00:44:06.643
I don't know that character.

00:44:06.664 --> 00:44:06.744
Yeah.

00:44:06.764 --> 00:44:08.465
Her real name was Anna, I think.

00:44:09.246 --> 00:44:10.065
It was either Amy or Anna.

00:44:10.085 --> 00:44:11.447
Anyway, I can't remember.

00:44:12.027 --> 00:44:14.170
But I looked and it was one of

00:44:14.190 --> 00:44:16.751
the twenty twenty three autograph cards

00:44:17.932 --> 00:44:18.793
from Star Wars.

00:44:18.813 --> 00:44:22.936
And it was number one of fifty.

00:44:22.976 --> 00:44:24.197
But I couldn't find any.

00:44:24.898 --> 00:44:26.599
I jumped on eBay to see if that

00:44:26.639 --> 00:44:27.418
was worth anything.

00:44:27.438 --> 00:44:28.400
Cause I never heard of her,

00:44:28.460 --> 00:44:29.440
but I'm like, Hey,

00:44:29.460 --> 00:44:30.201
I got a number one.

00:44:30.300 --> 00:44:31.360
I didn't know if that was any

00:44:31.661 --> 00:44:32.362
significance,

00:44:32.402 --> 00:44:34.742
but it's usually a little premium.

00:44:34.862 --> 00:44:36.804
I mean, they call it a bookend.

00:44:36.844 --> 00:44:38.403
So, you know, it's the first one.

00:44:38.443 --> 00:44:40.405
So whatever it goes for,

00:44:40.425 --> 00:44:41.365
add a little bit to it.

00:44:41.405 --> 00:44:41.646
And so,

00:44:42.710 --> 00:44:44.411
Darn is that all of my Pokemon cards

00:44:44.472 --> 00:44:46.594
of any value fell victim to the washing

00:44:46.614 --> 00:44:47.813
machine when I was a kid.

00:44:48.715 --> 00:44:49.956
I got mud on my jeans at the

00:44:49.996 --> 00:44:51.597
bus stop and had to run home to

00:44:51.637 --> 00:44:52.398
quick change.

00:44:52.677 --> 00:44:56.320
I left all my holographic and reverse

00:44:56.340 --> 00:44:58.280
holographic cards in my jeans pocket.

00:44:58.702 --> 00:44:59.382
My little brother,

00:44:59.521 --> 00:45:01.364
he was being helpful and picked up my

00:45:01.423 --> 00:45:03.164
dirty jeans and tossed them in the

00:45:03.204 --> 00:45:03.644
laundry.

00:45:03.664 --> 00:45:05.967
Okay.

00:45:08.106 --> 00:45:08.846
The loss.

00:45:11.126 --> 00:45:12.927
We hear so many stories, you know,

00:45:13.907 --> 00:45:17.409
of people just yard sale in and parents

00:45:17.429 --> 00:45:19.570
gave it to, you know, the neighbor's kids.

00:45:20.371 --> 00:45:20.570
It's,

00:45:21.947 --> 00:45:23.248
But that's what makes stuff go up in

00:45:23.268 --> 00:45:25.949
value because nobody yet keep it,

00:45:25.989 --> 00:45:27.371
you know?

00:45:27.411 --> 00:45:28.992
The kid goes off to college and the

00:45:29.032 --> 00:45:30.333
mom is cleaning out the attic.

00:45:30.373 --> 00:45:33.554
And then she sells all of their Pokemon

00:45:33.574 --> 00:45:34.835
cards for like, you know,

00:45:35.335 --> 00:45:36.916
you can have all those for ten bucks.

00:45:36.936 --> 00:45:37.795
It's not a big deal.

00:45:37.836 --> 00:45:38.217
And you just...

00:45:41.119 --> 00:45:44.123
most of my old uh original gi joe

00:45:44.143 --> 00:45:45.945
figures and he-man figures and stuff back

00:45:45.965 --> 00:45:47.967
in the eighties they got tossed when my

00:45:48.007 --> 00:45:49.969
mom moved i wasn't there to to go

00:45:50.009 --> 00:45:53.251
through them and she just or the ones

00:45:53.271 --> 00:45:55.215
that you didn't blow up with fireworks

00:45:55.235 --> 00:45:55.614
look look

00:45:57.472 --> 00:45:58.713
He-Man was a common figure,

00:45:58.793 --> 00:45:59.193
let me tell you.

00:45:59.233 --> 00:46:00.813
He-Man had some burn marks on him from

00:46:00.833 --> 00:46:01.673
the bottle rockets.

00:46:02.494 --> 00:46:03.735
I tried to send him into space,

00:46:03.795 --> 00:46:04.416
it didn't work.

00:46:07.237 --> 00:46:08.757
We tried to find Eternia for him.

00:46:16.021 --> 00:46:18.443
So, golly,

00:46:18.463 --> 00:46:19.844
would it be worth my time to bring

00:46:20.423 --> 00:46:22.385
maybe that one of fifty cards to see

00:46:22.425 --> 00:46:24.045
if somebody might be interested in it?

00:46:24.126 --> 00:46:25.907
Definitely, yeah.

00:46:25.927 --> 00:46:26.007
Okay.

00:46:28.150 --> 00:46:28.512
Yeah,

00:46:28.552 --> 00:46:29.972
just slap a price on it that you

00:46:30.012 --> 00:46:30.632
think is fair,

00:46:30.672 --> 00:46:33.896
and then you can just haggle with people.

00:46:34.115 --> 00:46:34.856
He says,

00:46:34.876 --> 00:46:36.036
slap a price on it you think that

00:46:36.056 --> 00:46:36.557
might be fair,

00:46:36.577 --> 00:46:37.878
but let me come over first.

00:46:37.898 --> 00:46:45.003
We can help set up my comp for

00:46:45.043 --> 00:46:46.304
you.

00:46:46.324 --> 00:46:49.648
We'll give you a discount on the vendor

00:46:49.668 --> 00:46:50.367
booth next year.

00:46:52.550 --> 00:46:53.190
Let's talk.

00:46:56.532 --> 00:46:57.074
Oh, my.

00:47:01.099 --> 00:47:02.460
Oh, I say that's got me curious.

00:47:02.481 --> 00:47:03.521
I've been meaning to break them out for

00:47:03.541 --> 00:47:03.740
years.

00:47:03.760 --> 00:47:05.081
I've got a bunch of sports cards from

00:47:05.141 --> 00:47:07.222
like the early to mid nineties,

00:47:07.262 --> 00:47:09.943
especially NBA and MLB.

00:47:10.282 --> 00:47:10.983
That's one day I need to,

00:47:11.163 --> 00:47:12.262
I need to look into that.

00:47:12.282 --> 00:47:13.264
Like they're sitting on my shelf.

00:47:13.284 --> 00:47:14.384
That's one thing I've not missed within

00:47:14.483 --> 00:47:14.804
years.

00:47:14.844 --> 00:47:15.164
Now this,

00:47:15.423 --> 00:47:16.264
I may have to bring it with me

00:47:16.284 --> 00:47:17.485
just to kind of look and be like,

00:47:17.704 --> 00:47:18.324
okay.

00:47:18.405 --> 00:47:18.965
And bring my book.

00:47:19.005 --> 00:47:19.505
That's yeah.

00:47:19.525 --> 00:47:21.445
That might be something.

00:47:22.184 --> 00:47:23.326
The unfortunate part,

00:47:23.505 --> 00:47:26.586
most of the nineties baseball is tough.

00:47:26.606 --> 00:47:27.728
It's yeah.

00:47:27.748 --> 00:47:29.628
Oh, I know we got oversaturated bad.

00:47:30.088 --> 00:47:30.289
Yeah.

00:47:30.668 --> 00:47:32.010
But when you said NBA, that's a good,

00:47:32.130 --> 00:47:33.831
you know, especially, you know,

00:47:33.851 --> 00:47:34.791
you got Jordan cards,

00:47:34.811 --> 00:47:35.672
but when you get a little bit,

00:47:35.891 --> 00:47:36.152
you know,

00:47:36.251 --> 00:47:38.112
ninety six is when Kobe came in.

00:47:38.172 --> 00:47:39.413
Yeah.

00:47:39.452 --> 00:47:40.974
So, yeah, you could possibly.

00:47:41.614 --> 00:47:42.275
Yeah.

00:47:42.295 --> 00:47:43.255
I have to break them out and see

00:47:43.275 --> 00:47:45.036
what I haven't looked at them in years.

00:47:46.817 --> 00:47:47.277
Yeah.

00:47:47.336 --> 00:47:47.436
Yeah.

00:47:47.476 --> 00:47:48.597
And Bama, Bama, Freddie says,

00:47:48.637 --> 00:47:50.099
bring it for the kids doing trade up

00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:50.559
challenges.

00:47:51.724 --> 00:47:52.065
Gotcha.

00:47:52.144 --> 00:47:53.085
I really need to find my,

00:47:53.126 --> 00:47:54.427
cause I've got a lot of old baseball

00:47:54.447 --> 00:47:55.989
cards too from the nineties and stuff

00:47:56.009 --> 00:47:56.148
that.

00:47:56.568 --> 00:47:56.708
Yeah.

00:47:56.748 --> 00:47:57.090
We found,

00:47:57.429 --> 00:47:59.431
we found some in the storage building and

00:47:59.472 --> 00:48:00.873
we forgot to grab that box.

00:48:00.893 --> 00:48:01.333
Yeah.

00:48:01.353 --> 00:48:02.373
We forgot to grab that box.

00:48:02.534 --> 00:48:03.574
Yeah.

00:48:03.614 --> 00:48:04.916
They were like ninety,

00:48:05.817 --> 00:48:08.619
ninety-five Braves team sets and stuff

00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:08.900
like that.

00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:09.019
Yeah.

00:48:11.606 --> 00:48:12.688
Yeah.

00:48:12.788 --> 00:48:14.389
Watching that King of Collectibles got me

00:48:14.889 --> 00:48:16.592
interested in trying to find some old Greg

00:48:16.632 --> 00:48:17.813
Maddox cards or stuff.

00:48:18.114 --> 00:48:19.534
I could find them for a decent price.

00:48:19.554 --> 00:48:20.596
I love Maddox.

00:48:21.496 --> 00:48:22.958
He did a private signing not too long

00:48:22.998 --> 00:48:23.199
ago,

00:48:23.219 --> 00:48:25.121
and his prices were extremely reasonable

00:48:25.621 --> 00:48:26.722
for a Hall of Famer.

00:48:27.342 --> 00:48:28.985
He used to be extremely expensive.

00:48:29.025 --> 00:48:30.425
I think he's came down a little bit

00:48:31.487 --> 00:48:32.148
over the years,

00:48:32.228 --> 00:48:34.250
but he used to be crazy expensive.

00:48:34.449 --> 00:48:34.630
Yeah.

00:48:35.454 --> 00:48:35.675
You know,

00:48:35.775 --> 00:48:36.916
you guys just made me think of it.

00:48:36.956 --> 00:48:38.018
I don't know why it brought it up

00:48:38.038 --> 00:48:38.398
to my mind.

00:48:38.478 --> 00:48:39.579
I think it might have been talking about

00:48:40.300 --> 00:48:41.842
baseball cards because I'm the same way.

00:48:41.882 --> 00:48:43.003
I've got a lot of baseball cards, but.

00:48:43.432 --> 00:48:44.753
I also have the original,

00:48:44.793 --> 00:48:46.634
like the one through ten Spawn comics as

00:48:46.715 --> 00:48:46.974
well.

00:48:47.275 --> 00:48:48.355
I've got them.

00:48:48.394 --> 00:48:49.496
Yeah, I've got those.

00:48:49.516 --> 00:48:50.775
I've got those in a bin.

00:48:50.815 --> 00:48:52.217
I may see if I can bring those.

00:48:52.237 --> 00:48:52.856
I don't know.

00:48:52.896 --> 00:48:53.577
We'll see.

00:48:54.117 --> 00:48:55.057
Those might be the ones I'm going to

00:48:55.077 --> 00:48:55.619
hang on to.

00:48:56.898 --> 00:48:58.559
Check if they're newsstands.

00:48:58.679 --> 00:48:59.940
They're worth a lot more.

00:49:00.501 --> 00:49:01.481
If they're newsstands?

00:49:01.701 --> 00:49:02.181
Yeah.

00:49:02.262 --> 00:49:03.942
It's got the barcode on it, yeah.

00:49:04.041 --> 00:49:04.802
Okay.

00:49:05.023 --> 00:49:05.322
Oh, yeah.

00:49:06.668 --> 00:49:06.788
Yeah,

00:49:06.807 --> 00:49:08.568
that number one with a barcode on it

00:49:08.809 --> 00:49:10.128
is I think without it,

00:49:10.309 --> 00:49:11.610
it's like twenty five bucks.

00:49:12.309 --> 00:49:13.070
This new stand,

00:49:13.110 --> 00:49:14.471
it can be one hundred and fifty two

00:49:14.510 --> 00:49:14.751
hundred.

00:49:14.771 --> 00:49:16.731
Oh, wow.

00:49:16.751 --> 00:49:17.030
Wow.

00:49:17.291 --> 00:49:20.532
It's a big deal.

00:49:20.572 --> 00:49:20.652
Nice.

00:49:20.672 --> 00:49:21.452
Yeah, I'll take a look at it.

00:49:23.443 --> 00:49:23.603
Yeah,

00:49:23.744 --> 00:49:25.945
that is kind of like we were talking

00:49:26.445 --> 00:49:28.706
in our members episode before this,

00:49:29.085 --> 00:49:33.708
the this the twenty twenty three Snake

00:49:33.728 --> 00:49:35.409
Mountain from Master of the Universe

00:49:35.449 --> 00:49:36.650
Origins, you know,

00:49:36.690 --> 00:49:37.650
bought it for eighty bucks.

00:49:37.730 --> 00:49:39.471
I'm seeing them sell on eBay now for

00:49:39.811 --> 00:49:41.052
right around three hundred.

00:49:41.271 --> 00:49:41.672
Really?

00:49:43.746 --> 00:49:46.126
I have one in the brown shipping box

00:49:46.286 --> 00:49:47.668
unopened I might bring.

00:49:48.447 --> 00:49:49.108
If they're going to go,

00:49:49.909 --> 00:49:52.829
I won't ask that much for it.

00:49:53.130 --> 00:49:54.670
I might be bringing something like that

00:49:54.771 --> 00:49:58.052
once I saw it.

00:49:58.112 --> 00:49:59.753
Still sealed in the box like that too.

00:50:01.275 --> 00:50:02.454
That's why I buy two of things.

00:50:04.235 --> 00:50:04.976
One to play with,

00:50:05.115 --> 00:50:07.378
one to try to get out of the

00:50:07.418 --> 00:50:07.998
house at some point.

00:50:08.018 --> 00:50:10.239
You got one of those wolves?

00:50:12.045 --> 00:50:13.206
No, I don't.

00:50:13.365 --> 00:50:15.146
How about by your face?

00:50:15.186 --> 00:50:15.545
You're like, oh,

00:50:15.626 --> 00:50:16.467
I got a few of those.

00:50:16.487 --> 00:50:16.527
No,

00:50:16.547 --> 00:50:20.307
I didn't know the price increase of those.

00:50:21.467 --> 00:50:21.688
Yeah,

00:50:21.728 --> 00:50:23.889
the sold ones over the last couple of

00:50:23.909 --> 00:50:24.228
weeks,

00:50:25.750 --> 00:50:27.389
anywhere from two to two eighty five.

00:50:27.409 --> 00:50:28.451
That's good.

00:50:28.550 --> 00:50:30.010
Yeah.

00:50:30.030 --> 00:50:32.231
So, yeah,

00:50:32.751 --> 00:50:34.172
I have I have too many duplicates.

00:50:34.213 --> 00:50:36.032
I really need to maybe for the July

00:50:36.072 --> 00:50:36.233
show,

00:50:36.273 --> 00:50:37.673
if we if we do a vendor spot

00:50:37.693 --> 00:50:37.934
again,

00:50:38.014 --> 00:50:40.295
I have time to go through the all

00:50:40.315 --> 00:50:40.914
my stuff again.

00:50:42.431 --> 00:50:42.911
We'll have to see.

00:50:42.931 --> 00:50:43.012
Yeah,

00:50:43.873 --> 00:50:45.152
hopefully I'll have a good time and want

00:50:45.172 --> 00:50:45.793
to come back.

00:50:47.074 --> 00:50:47.634
Oh, no, no.

00:50:47.653 --> 00:50:48.474
We'll definitely come back.

00:50:48.514 --> 00:50:49.235
Yeah, we'll definitely be there.

00:50:49.255 --> 00:50:49.695
You might sell out.

00:50:49.715 --> 00:50:53.856
Yeah, you might sell out.

00:50:53.876 --> 00:50:54.817
We're addicted now.

00:50:54.936 --> 00:50:56.197
Hey.

00:50:56.257 --> 00:50:56.958
I will say this.

00:50:56.998 --> 00:50:57.538
I will say this.

00:50:57.978 --> 00:51:00.559
Even if you don't come to the con,

00:51:00.579 --> 00:51:01.559
which I'm not saying don't.

00:51:01.579 --> 00:51:03.161
Obviously, we definitely want you to come.

00:51:04.300 --> 00:51:06.161
Just the way that these guys have the

00:51:06.802 --> 00:51:09.965
Wolf Den collectibles and just along the

00:51:10.005 --> 00:51:11.326
whole road that's in Gadsden.

00:51:11.346 --> 00:51:11.425
Yeah.

00:51:11.445 --> 00:51:11.626
I mean,

00:51:13.786 --> 00:51:15.429
that is some of the coolest shops from

00:51:15.989 --> 00:51:18.771
the thrift stores and the antique stores

00:51:18.791 --> 00:51:19.751
that's all along that.

00:51:20.612 --> 00:51:21.492
I mean, we went nuts.

00:51:21.512 --> 00:51:23.213
We went into the Wolf Shop.

00:51:23.514 --> 00:51:25.815
We went into the antique store that was

00:51:25.936 --> 00:51:26.775
across the road,

00:51:27.076 --> 00:51:27.777
a little bit up the road.

00:51:30.485 --> 00:51:32.349
There are so many awesome shops,

00:51:32.389 --> 00:51:34.492
and it's bookended almost at the end down

00:51:34.512 --> 00:51:36.755
there by a really cool-looking movie

00:51:36.835 --> 00:51:40.940
theater that you guys have down there.

00:51:41.039 --> 00:51:43.262
It's a really cool area in Gadsden there,

00:51:43.362 --> 00:51:44.184
and not only that,

00:51:44.244 --> 00:51:45.806
but it just has really, really good shops.

00:51:47.521 --> 00:51:49.101
Yeah, that's the other guy.

00:51:49.541 --> 00:51:50.681
I was going to say the other guy

00:51:50.702 --> 00:51:51.543
that runs it with us.

00:51:51.563 --> 00:51:53.503
He has a shop on the other side

00:51:53.543 --> 00:51:54.023
of the street,

00:51:54.184 --> 00:51:56.545
kind of a block or two down for

00:51:56.585 --> 00:51:57.606
the computer and variety.

00:51:57.626 --> 00:51:59.067
He does a lot of video games and

00:51:59.706 --> 00:52:00.967
computer repair and stuff.

00:52:01.708 --> 00:52:04.190
Yeah, he's about like maybe what a block,

00:52:04.210 --> 00:52:05.570
half a block from that movie theater.

00:52:05.971 --> 00:52:06.251
Yeah.

00:52:06.371 --> 00:52:06.990
Right down there.

00:52:07.130 --> 00:52:08.431
Yeah.

00:52:08.472 --> 00:52:08.552
Yeah.

00:52:08.572 --> 00:52:09.192
I went into his shop.

00:52:09.231 --> 00:52:10.172
He has some really good records.

00:52:10.793 --> 00:52:10.893
Yeah.

00:52:10.913 --> 00:52:12.173
I bought some of his records that he

00:52:12.193 --> 00:52:12.494
has there.

00:52:12.534 --> 00:52:13.655
He's got a lot of records in his

00:52:13.675 --> 00:52:13.914
shop.

00:52:15.117 --> 00:52:17.677
So that area is called they consider it

00:52:17.697 --> 00:52:19.059
called downtown Gadsden.

00:52:19.358 --> 00:52:21.579
And Miss Kay Moore is kind of the

00:52:21.960 --> 00:52:24.242
president of downtown Gadsden.

00:52:24.842 --> 00:52:25.963
And they just do a lot of work.

00:52:26.003 --> 00:52:27.402
They just they try to put a lot

00:52:27.443 --> 00:52:28.724
of nice themes down there,

00:52:28.744 --> 00:52:30.744
a lot of nice events.

00:52:30.965 --> 00:52:31.985
They really care about it.

00:52:32.045 --> 00:52:33.666
So it's I love being there.

00:52:33.686 --> 00:52:34.427
It's awesome.

00:52:34.766 --> 00:52:36.447
It's been a few years.

00:52:36.467 --> 00:52:37.208
I would say it's been a few years

00:52:37.228 --> 00:52:37.668
I've been up there,

00:52:37.688 --> 00:52:39.190
but they still do the first Friday or

00:52:39.230 --> 00:52:39.929
did they still do those?

00:52:39.949 --> 00:52:41.411
Cause I went up there for those one

00:52:41.431 --> 00:52:43.172
time and it was really enjoyable.

00:52:43.291 --> 00:52:43.733
Yes.

00:52:43.793 --> 00:52:45.393
It's, it's awesome.

00:52:45.514 --> 00:52:46.773
And I think it's what April through

00:52:46.835 --> 00:52:47.875
October, I think.

00:52:48.235 --> 00:52:48.436
Yeah.

00:52:48.956 --> 00:52:50.556
Um, yes, we love first Friday.

00:52:50.577 --> 00:52:52.797
Um, they do, we do the,

00:52:54.579 --> 00:52:57.300
street and the veterans day parade comes

00:52:57.320 --> 00:52:57.621
through there.

00:52:57.641 --> 00:52:57.920
What else?

00:52:57.940 --> 00:52:57.981
Um,

00:53:01.126 --> 00:53:01.467
I don't know.

00:53:01.527 --> 00:53:02.949
There's several events.

00:53:03.429 --> 00:53:06.795

If you squint really hard,

00:56:08.003 --> 00:56:09.123
it's worth a pretty penny.

00:56:09.264 --> 00:56:10.864

We're going to get together afterwards and

00:56:56.452 --> 00:56:57.554
maybe go to the top of the river

00:56:57.594 --> 00:56:59.275

00:56:59.315 --> 00:57:00.195
Wolf was talking about earlier.

00:57:00.215 --> 00:57:02.755
Yeah, absolutely.

00:57:02.996 --> 00:57:06.597
He says it's his weekend of work.

00:57:06.657 --> 00:57:07.179

That's my line.

00:57:18.018 --> 00:57:18.798
Oh, okay.

00:57:19.079 --> 00:57:20.119
Oh, no, you just said it.

00:57:20.139 --> 00:57:22.480
Mammoth Freddy is trying to get James Mann

00:57:22.519 --> 00:57:22.820
in here.

00:57:23.619 --> 00:57:25.219
What about the chance of snow?

00:57:25.400 --> 00:57:27.460
That Connecticut confetti?

00:57:27.481 --> 00:57:29.641
Hopefully none.

00:57:29.661 --> 00:57:31.581
I saw something about Wolf was sharing

00:57:31.621 --> 00:57:38.023
some crap, but I saw James Mann.

00:57:38.103 --> 00:57:39.262
He said if it's anything,

00:57:39.282 --> 00:57:40.802

00:57:40.822 --> 00:57:41.382

00:57:41.402 --> 00:57:44.204
So if it's anything.

00:57:44.344 --> 00:57:45.103
If it's anything.

00:57:45.123 --> 00:57:45.244
Yeah.

00:57:45.503 --> 00:57:45.583
Yeah.

00:57:47.614 --> 00:57:47.940
Okay.

00:57:49.215 --> 00:57:50.115
Well, we'll be there.

00:57:50.195 --> 00:57:53.237
Rain, sleet, snow, maybe a tornado.

00:57:53.518 --> 00:57:53.958
We'll be there.

00:57:56.960 --> 00:57:58.041
It is tornado season.

00:57:58.742 --> 00:57:59.242
Snownado.

00:57:59.262 --> 00:58:00.123
Here we go.

00:58:00.483 --> 00:58:01.804
Snownado.

00:58:01.923 --> 00:58:02.724
It's inside,

00:58:02.764 --> 00:58:03.646
so we don't have to get snow.

00:58:03.666 --> 00:58:07.068
That's right.

00:58:07.108 --> 00:58:07.909
Once you're there, you're good.

00:58:07.929 --> 00:58:09.289
Yeah, that's right.

00:58:10.331 --> 00:58:12.211
Air conditioning and heating if needed.

00:58:13.592 --> 00:58:14.833
If they shut down the streets,

00:58:14.853 --> 00:58:16.394
that means it's just a twenty four hour

00:58:16.434 --> 00:58:16.715
con.

00:58:16.735 --> 00:58:17.735
Right.

00:58:20.018 --> 00:58:20.818
That's right.

00:58:20.898 --> 00:58:22.298
What do you mean we couldn't rent it

00:58:22.378 --> 00:58:22.960
on Sunday?

00:58:24.521 --> 00:58:26.202
If the food trucks leave, we riot.

00:58:29.923 --> 00:58:31.585
Finley says you'll hit all seasons in a

00:58:31.626 --> 00:58:32.445
matter of hours here.

00:58:32.585 --> 00:58:33.347
Absolutely.

00:58:33.547 --> 00:58:34.367
Alabama wintertime.

00:58:35.148 --> 00:58:35.268
Yeah,

00:58:35.288 --> 00:58:36.949
we did have a massive rainstorm the first

00:58:36.969 --> 00:58:37.108
time.

00:58:38.751 --> 00:58:38.871
Yeah.

00:58:38.990 --> 00:58:40.632
It tore down our banners in the road.

00:58:41.211 --> 00:58:41.753
Oh, no.

00:58:41.813 --> 00:58:42.452
The fence post.

00:58:42.492 --> 00:58:43.474
It was crazy.

00:58:43.494 --> 00:58:43.793
Yeah.

00:58:44.969 --> 00:58:46.831
I had a wooden bookshelf I put in

00:58:46.851 --> 00:58:48.072
the back of my truck and it was

00:58:48.092 --> 00:58:49.632

00:58:49.693 --> 00:58:55.597
Well, fingers crossed prayers going up,

00:58:55.797 --> 00:58:57.440

00:58:58.099 --> 00:58:59.902
you're going to have a massive crowd.

00:59:00.742 --> 00:59:02.864
It's going to be so, so much fun.

00:59:03.985 --> 00:59:05.706
Um, before we wrap up,

00:59:05.726 --> 00:59:06.927

an Alabama-based pop culture podcast.

01:00:17.894 --> 01:00:21.197
We talk a lot of things relating pop

01:00:21.217 --> 01:00:22.958
culture back to the state of Alabama.

01:00:22.978 --> 01:00:23.938
A lot of good things come out of

01:00:23.978 --> 01:00:24.139
here.

01:00:24.699 --> 01:00:25.980
So subscribe to the channel.

01:00:26.000 --> 01:00:27.800
Hit a like on this video if you're

01:00:27.820 --> 01:00:29.521
watching it after the fact and want to

01:00:29.621 --> 01:00:31.123
chime in with maybe something you're going

01:00:31.143 --> 01:00:33.503
to be looking for at the con or

01:00:33.563 --> 01:00:34.925
something you'd like to see in the future.

01:00:34.965 --> 01:00:35.684
Drop a comment.

01:00:35.744 --> 01:00:36.525
We'd love to hear it.

01:00:37.106 --> 01:00:38.947
And I'm sure these guys will be keeping

01:00:38.967 --> 01:00:40.588
an eye on that and we can always

01:00:40.628 --> 01:00:41.387
pass it along.

01:00:42.608 --> 01:00:44.251
So, yep.

01:00:44.271 --> 01:00:45.693
As always, a bunch of nerds.

01:00:45.713 --> 01:00:46.215
That's right.

01:00:46.235 --> 01:00:49.860
A bunch of nerds.

01:00:49.880 --> 01:00:49.981
Yeah.

01:00:50.001 --> 01:00:50.742
Excuse me, sir.

01:00:50.822 --> 01:00:52.525
I'm a geek, not a nerd.

01:00:52.545 --> 01:00:55.309
A little column A, a little column B.

01:00:56.686 --> 01:00:57.166
That's right.

01:00:57.967 --> 01:01:00.487
But again, this Saturday, Gadsden,

01:01:00.588 --> 01:01:02.568
Alabama, Gadsden Collector Con.

01:01:03.068 --> 01:01:05.050
You can go to GadsdenCollectorCon.com.

01:01:05.829 --> 01:01:06.929
Get more information, of course,

01:01:06.989 --> 01:01:07.831
on their social media.

01:01:07.871 --> 01:01:10.170
Just look up Gadsden Collector Con.

01:01:10.992 --> 01:01:13.251
I'm trying to think if there's anything

01:01:13.353 --> 01:01:13.612
else.

01:01:14.393 --> 01:01:15.592
Your individual businesses,

01:01:15.632 --> 01:01:19.233
you've got KD Comics and Collectibles with

01:01:19.273 --> 01:01:22.014
Derek and then Wulfton Collectibles with

01:01:22.576 --> 01:01:23.056
Wolf there.

01:01:24.150 --> 01:01:25.891
And, of course, with us,

01:01:26.090 --> 01:01:27.431
you've got Bama Geeks.

01:01:27.451 --> 01:01:28.070
Yeah.

01:01:28.251 --> 01:01:29.891
And we're going to be there again.

01:01:29.931 --> 01:01:30.092
Yeah.

01:01:30.112 --> 01:01:30.192
Yeah.

01:01:30.211 --> 01:01:31.092
We're going to have a booth.

01:01:32.293 --> 01:01:34.432
We've never been a vendor anywhere.

01:01:34.512 --> 01:01:36.994
We've never done a convention where we've

01:01:37.014 --> 01:01:39.855
had a presence, you know, anything.

01:01:39.914 --> 01:01:42.034
So this will be the first time that

01:01:42.056 --> 01:01:44.755
we have a table at an event.

01:01:44.835 --> 01:01:46.197
So make sure you come out and see

01:01:46.237 --> 01:01:46.536
us, too.

01:01:47.056 --> 01:01:47.197
Yeah,

01:01:47.217 --> 01:01:48.538
come take advantage of us and buy all

01:01:48.557 --> 01:01:49.079
my stuff.

01:01:52.222 --> 01:01:54.043
We need stuff out of the house.

01:01:54.503 --> 01:01:55.063
There you go.

01:01:55.103 --> 01:01:56.646
We're going to give you deals.

01:01:57.166 --> 01:01:57.827
Absolutely.

01:01:57.887 --> 01:01:58.766
We got to get the stuff out of

01:01:58.786 --> 01:01:59.088
the house.

01:01:59.527 --> 01:02:01.068
We want to move soon,

01:02:01.289 --> 01:02:03.050
and I don't want to carry this stuff.

01:02:03.210 --> 01:02:04.813
My kids do not want to inherit it.

01:02:04.833 --> 01:02:06.954
They have told me, Dad,

01:02:07.414 --> 01:02:08.936
we want the money, not the stuff.

01:02:10.157 --> 01:02:11.699
So help.

01:02:11.918 --> 01:02:12.298
Help.

01:02:12.338 --> 01:02:12.579
Please help.

01:02:12.619 --> 01:02:13.360
Help.

01:02:14.860 --> 01:02:16.222
Yeah, I'm hoping to walk around.

01:02:16.242 --> 01:02:19.202
That's the past three shows I've not had

01:02:19.242 --> 01:02:21.664
time to walk around.

01:02:21.684 --> 01:02:21.864
Yeah,

01:02:22.023 --> 01:02:23.284
you're at your booth quite a bit in

01:02:23.384 --> 01:02:24.204
July.

01:02:24.784 --> 01:02:25.505
I'm hoping.

01:02:26.364 --> 01:02:27.965
I'm just going to tell nobody no Pokemon

01:02:28.005 --> 01:02:28.565
trades.

01:02:28.606 --> 01:02:31.447
Just let my brother handle it for an

01:02:31.487 --> 01:02:32.088
hour or two,

01:02:32.128 --> 01:02:34.007
and I'm just going to walk around and

01:02:34.027 --> 01:02:35.088
talk and shop.

01:02:35.108 --> 01:02:35.289
Yeah.

01:02:36.213 --> 01:02:37.615
So if we see you walking around in

01:02:37.715 --> 01:02:39.117
a Disney lounge fly bag,

01:02:39.137 --> 01:02:40.699
we'll know you've been walking around.

01:02:40.721 --> 01:02:46.829
This is exactly what I needed.

01:02:51.637 --> 01:02:52.018
Uh, yeah.

01:02:52.038 --> 01:02:53.557
If you want to learn more about our

01:02:53.599 --> 01:02:55.219
podcast and everything else, and we're,

01:02:55.260 --> 01:02:56.920
we're starting our fifth year this year.

01:02:57.320 --> 01:02:57.521
Uh,

01:02:57.561 --> 01:02:58.842
we appreciate all the support over the

01:02:58.862 --> 01:02:59.141
years.

01:03:00.103 --> 01:03:02.764
Um, also on social media at Bama geeks,

01:03:02.844 --> 01:03:03.844
just find us there.

01:03:03.864 --> 01:03:05.545
And again, uh, on Facebook,

01:03:05.585 --> 01:03:08.188
Bama geeks front porch, look for that.

01:03:08.208 --> 01:03:10.489
Uh, that's our own private little group.

01:03:10.509 --> 01:03:11.570
We'll let you in there and,

01:03:11.690 --> 01:03:13.891
and just chit chat about nerd stuff,

01:03:13.931 --> 01:03:14.612
geek stuff,

01:03:14.632 --> 01:03:16.893
a lot of Alabama related stuff, uh,

01:03:17.233 --> 01:03:18.054
when it comes to that.

01:03:18.153 --> 01:03:18.373
So, uh,

01:03:19.295 --> 01:03:19.675
And again,

01:03:19.695 --> 01:03:21.394
thank you so much to Jamie and Mike

01:03:21.474 --> 01:03:23.835
and Darnay and Jack for being our longtime

01:03:25.275 --> 01:03:26.476
Patreon supporters.

01:03:28.056 --> 01:03:30.356
Never obligated, always appreciated.

01:03:30.396 --> 01:03:31.518
But more than anything,

01:03:31.538 --> 01:03:33.277
we're just happy you guys came on here

01:03:33.338 --> 01:03:36.018
to join us tonight and enjoy the chit

01:03:36.038 --> 01:03:37.639
chat about a wonderful con,

01:03:38.599 --> 01:03:39.759
Gadsden Collector Con.

01:03:39.938 --> 01:03:42.360
And we hope to see all of you

01:03:42.380 --> 01:03:43.679
there on Saturday.

01:03:43.967 --> 01:03:44.849
That's right.

01:03:44.969 --> 01:03:48.192
Every single one of you watching.

01:03:48.291 --> 01:03:49.432
Every one of you.

01:03:49.452 --> 01:03:49.932
That's right.

01:03:50.594 --> 01:03:51.494
A lot of people there.

01:03:51.534 --> 01:03:54.597
And yeah, looking forward to it.

01:03:55.858 --> 01:03:57.440
So I know it's going to be a

01:03:57.480 --> 01:03:58.721
busy week for you guys,

01:03:58.800 --> 01:04:00.543
getting everything wrapped up and planned.

01:04:00.603 --> 01:04:02.585
And man,

01:04:02.684 --> 01:04:05.887
just hope it's not too stressful for you

01:04:05.927 --> 01:04:05.987
all.

01:04:06.724 --> 01:04:11.188
It's already stressful.

01:04:11.327 --> 01:04:13.369
It starts immediately after the one ends,

01:04:13.429 --> 01:04:13.750
right?

01:04:14.690 --> 01:04:16.112
And ask Wolf what he's got to do

01:04:16.152 --> 01:04:17.833
from nine to ten.

01:04:18.293 --> 01:04:19.534
What do you have to do from nine

01:04:19.574 --> 01:04:19.795
to ten?

01:04:19.815 --> 01:04:19.974
Shut up.

01:04:26.447 --> 01:04:30.449
So this year he's talking about the day

01:04:30.509 --> 01:04:31.728
of the con from nine to ten.

01:04:31.768 --> 01:04:32.949
I have to leave to go coach a

01:04:32.969 --> 01:04:33.789
basketball game.

01:04:33.829 --> 01:04:37.150
Oh, all right.

01:04:37.231 --> 01:04:38.731
I was I was scheduled to have two

01:04:38.751 --> 01:04:41.713
basketball games that day and they were

01:04:41.733 --> 01:04:44.893
able to push the later one to Valentine's

01:04:44.934 --> 01:04:45.253
Day.

01:04:46.375 --> 01:04:48.376
And I'm trying to move my ten o'clock

01:04:48.396 --> 01:04:49.576
game to nine o'clock.

01:04:49.615 --> 01:04:50.797
So I thought it would be better just

01:04:50.817 --> 01:04:51.556
to miss that.

01:04:51.996 --> 01:04:52.297
you know,

01:04:52.538 --> 01:04:54.079
let somebody else help set my table.

01:04:54.400 --> 01:04:56.423
Oh yeah.

01:04:56.443 --> 01:04:57.144
The hard part,

01:04:57.164 --> 01:04:57.945
you can come in there and do the

01:04:57.965 --> 01:04:58.606
fun part, right?

01:05:02.331 --> 01:05:04.333
I told him the con's way more important

01:05:04.353 --> 01:05:08.576
than any of them kids.

01:05:08.615 --> 01:05:09.077
That's right.

01:05:09.356 --> 01:05:10.737
Get your priorities straight.

01:05:10.757 --> 01:05:15.963
I love it.

01:05:16.063 --> 01:05:17.885
I've got help, but I just,

01:05:17.905 --> 01:05:20.286
I don't know.

01:05:20.327 --> 01:05:21.047
I love it,

01:05:21.088 --> 01:05:24.271
and so you've got to teach the kids

01:05:24.291 --> 01:05:25.612
that you've got responsibility.

01:05:25.652 --> 01:05:27.353
You've just got to make it both work.

01:05:28.614 --> 01:05:28.914
Oh, yeah.

01:05:28.954 --> 01:05:29.835
You ought to get them to come in

01:05:29.855 --> 01:05:34.297
there and help you set up.

01:05:34.317 --> 01:05:36.336
That's their exercise for the day.

01:05:37.418 --> 01:05:39.599
That's their warm-ups.

01:05:39.619 --> 01:05:41.480
We were going to the ball game.

01:05:43.440 --> 01:05:44.420
Here's another fun fact.

01:05:44.481 --> 01:05:47.681
Don't trust kids with Pokemon cards or

01:05:47.942 --> 01:05:53.423
toys or anything valuable.

01:05:53.543 --> 01:05:54.905
Rather than focus on basketball.

01:05:58.831 --> 01:05:59.552
Oh, that's awesome.

01:05:59.592 --> 01:06:00.954
So you're going to, you're going to,

01:06:02.233 --> 01:06:03.614
you're going to make sure you're there at

01:06:03.655 --> 01:06:04.195
the convention,

01:06:04.215 --> 01:06:05.597
but you're going to skip Valentine's day.

01:06:05.617 --> 01:06:06.277
Is that what I'm hearing?

01:06:07.217 --> 01:06:07.418
Well,

01:06:07.458 --> 01:06:09.119
we were already scheduled for one game on

01:06:09.159 --> 01:06:09.920
Valentine's day.

01:06:09.940 --> 01:06:11.320
So now I'm in for your wife.

01:06:12.822 --> 01:06:13.621
I met with your wife.

01:06:17.664 --> 01:06:21.588
You know, they're her kids too.

01:06:21.768 --> 01:06:22.949
So this one in here.

01:06:22.969 --> 01:06:23.469
Okay.

01:06:28.565 --> 01:06:29.925
Crunchy Frog says, I can't make it.

01:06:29.945 --> 01:06:31.507
I'll be home doing non-nerdy stuff like

01:06:31.527 --> 01:06:32.927
playing Magic the Gathering or watching

01:06:32.947 --> 01:06:34.588
the special features on my Spider-Man No

01:06:34.608 --> 01:06:37.869
Way Home Blu-ray.

01:06:37.909 --> 01:06:39.449
Those special features are lit.

01:06:44.172 --> 01:06:46.293
Oh, well, Wolf and Derek,

01:06:46.313 --> 01:06:47.813
thank you guys so much again for coming

01:06:47.893 --> 01:06:48.492
on here with us.

01:06:48.512 --> 01:06:50.132
We have thoroughly enjoyed our time with

01:06:50.172 --> 01:06:51.693
you and we look forward to seeing you

01:06:51.773 --> 01:06:52.614
on Saturday.

01:06:52.693 --> 01:06:53.634
And again,

01:06:53.653 --> 01:06:55.355
for everybody watching Gadsden Collector

01:06:55.375 --> 01:06:57.675
Con, please come out, support these guys.

01:06:57.695 --> 01:06:58.855
These gentlemen are wonderful.

01:06:58.954 --> 01:07:00.096
The show is wonderful.

01:07:00.695 --> 01:07:01.436
It's a great day.

01:07:01.856 --> 01:07:04.456
We had so much fun there last year

01:07:04.956 --> 01:07:06.597
and thankfully Jess will get to spend more

01:07:06.617 --> 01:07:07.597
than an hour this time.

01:07:07.856 --> 01:07:08.117
Yeah.

01:07:11.217 --> 01:07:12.699
But we had an absolute blast.

01:07:12.780 --> 01:07:14.101
And, Bo, this will be your first one,

01:07:14.141 --> 01:07:14.342
right?
