baseball card Podcasts?
 

One of my other hobbies is metal detecting. I've come across a website whose owner produces Podcasts every two weeks covering various subjects related to metal detecting (hints, tips, recommended books, etc.). The Podcasts are each probably 5 minutes or so long, so they are nothing too time consuming. I downloaded a bunch of them and listened to them on my mp3 player while traveling this past weekend.

Do any Net54 board members know of similar type Podcasts related to baseball cards? Do you think something of this type would be of interest to collectors? I know I for one would love hearing a daily or weekly Podcast or radio show covering vintage card collecting. I spend probably 30-40 minutes each morning and afternoon driving to/from work and would truly love to listen to some hobby related stuff rather than the same old music and talk news radio.

Thoughts?

Ryan Friedman of Auction Report Blog radio does a weekly podcast where he talks about the sports card (& memorabilia) hobby & interviews the owners of auction houses. He does them very inconsistently, like one each week over a span of 2 or 3 months, then not another one for 3 months. Many of them are really good, though.

Also, I understand Andy Madec does a radio show in California, which can be heard/downloaded, but I haven't heard it.

I would think that a vintage card podcast would be really good, interviewing different collectors with their different expertise (Old judge, zeenut, T206, etc,...). I think I suggested it a few years ago, but nothing came of it.

Just wanted to bump this thread and see if anyone else have heard of any collecting podcasts? I am just starting to listen to them

Or, if you have a favorite podcast, that would be great too.
Thanks.

Bump. Can’t find one. It’s all modern card podcasts. Which I am grateful for but would be nice to hear talk on the cards I collect.

I found one I like, though it's a baseball history podcast, and not about cards, per se. Also, the two guys that do it are not perfectly accurate, but they are entertaining and usually come up with fun and interesting episode ideas. It's called the Eephus Podcast.

Absolutely second this recommendation. It is a real fun ride. I've been listening since pretty early on. I haven't found a regular baseball card podcast I care for and I am a pretty active listener.

Here's a blog about podcasts I did for my advertising agency that includes several recommendations:

This is a football one that I listen to quite regularly. It's hosted football ambassador and collector Bob Swick. I'm not sure if he is a member, but I know his cohost is on here (Joe S. "Publius").

It is quite enjoyable if someone is interested in starting a baseball one in the same style. I was fortunate to be a guest to talk about my Army football collection.

There is also a weekly show called the Great American Collectibles show with Rico Petrocelli and some other guy... Sponsored by PSA, its about an hour long www.facebook.com/psacard... sometimes has some good info with AH owners and guests...not sure if you would consider it a podcast though...
