🎙️ Riffin’ with Raff feat. Code H – Flip Life, Plush Gold & WhatNot Dreams
In this very special episode of Raff’s Brain, host Rob Raffety welcomes back Code H (aka Cody Hollen) for a deep dive into the ever-growing world of online reselling, nostalgia-fueled treasure hunting, and their grand plan to dominate the Whatnot live auction space.
Recorded in their beloved hometown of Buckhannon, WV, this episode captures the first step of a new venture — the Flip Life Era. Rob and Cody hit up the local Goodwill, drop $75 on random finds, and get hyped for their first-ever Whatnot show. Whether it's vintage hats, Squishmallows, Grogu plushies, or an epic purple Care Bear, they’ve got goods... and a whole lot of giggles.
This episode is for:
- Vintage hunters
- Auction app explorers
- Plush lovers
- And anyone who’s ever said: “You know what? Let’s just try it.”
