## Resource

This week on Hobby Nonsense, Jesse and Ray kick things off with a review of Disney Chrome ✨. While the product was a fun rip overall, Jesse found some of the hit rates surprisingly underwhelming compared to the published odds, leading to a bigger question: are collectors better off buying blasters and megas instead of hobby boxes? Next, they're joined by Nicholas Barton of the All Stars Card Show, a unique event designed specifically to serve disabled children and their families ❤️. Nicholas shares how the show got started, who it benefits, and how collectors can support the upcoming charity auction this Sunday. After the interview, Ray recaps his experience at the Nashville Card Show, and his biggest takeaway is sure to spark debate: 👉 Sports cards may be slowing down while Pokémon continues to thrive. Then Ray discusses the two newly announced Pokémon sets, what excites him most about each release, and which cards collectors should be keeping an eye on. They close out the show with a return to Lorcana, breaking down recent record sales, current market trends, and lessons Jesse learned the hard way after diving deeper into the game and collectible side of the hobby. If you're considering getting into Lorcana, this segment may save you both money and frustration. 🎙️ Plus: Disney Chrome, Pokémon investing, Lorcana market updates, charity auctions, Nashville show observations, and more.
