Independent Thinking and the Joy of Collecting
This week’s flagship is all about the long game in collecting. Too often the hobby gets swept up in hype cycles, record sales, and FOMO. But the collectors who stick around for years don’t chase the herd. They think independently, focus on discovery, and build collections that reflect who they are.
In this episode, I share the story of an unexpected Marvin Harrison 1/1 pickup that reminded me why curiosity and exploration matter. We’ll talk about resisting comparison, finding joy in the hidden corners of the hobby, and why turning left when others go right might be the most satisfying path you can take as a collector.
