🎙️ Black in Sports Podcast – From childhood collectibles to billion-dollar auctions—trading cards have never left the game. In Season 6, Episode 10 of Black in Sports, we're diving deep into the culture, community, and comeback of sports trading cards. Once dismissed as old-school, these iconic pieces of cardboard are now digital, valuable, and culturally significant in ways the sports world never expected.

Hosts EJ & MH explore the evolution of trading cards, from classics like Topps and Upper Deck to the rise of NFTs, digital packs, and the booming resale market. We unpack how Black athletes are represented (or underrepresented), and why trading cards still matter for legacy, storytelling, and investment.

Whether you were stacking cards in plastic sleeves, flipping them at school, or now flipping them for profit, this episode is for the collectors, sports historians, and future investors.
💬 Are trading cards the new currency of sports culture?
💰 Are they a hobby, or a hidden wealth generator?
📈 Is now the time to invest—or just admire?

Tune in to this episode that connects nostalgia, sports business, and modern tech—and discover why sports cards are bigger than ever.
