Nat Turner on the PSA Grading Process and the Future of the Card Hobby

Mike and Jesse start off by running through some NBA players who have seen significant increases in card value, including Devin Booker, Kevin Huerter, and Terance Mann. They then share why they think Trae Young’s values haven’t seen a spike after the Hawks’ upset victory over the Sixers. Next they run through some baseball news, including the highly anticipated major league call-up of Wander Franco and why now is probably the best time to sell Franco’s cards. Then, to close the show they are joined by Nat Turner (40:37), executive chairman of Collectors Universe, to talk about how PSA is looking to handle the sizable backlog of cards without sacrificing the quality of their grading, PSA’s intentions to expand, and also Nat’s thoughts on the card market currently and how PSA and the card companies can ensure a healthier future for the industry.
