  • PSApod Review

    I just spent past two months listening to all episodes of the PSA podcast. Here's my review.

    This podcast has evolved from it's initial episodes where listeners were informed of the PSA backlog, to more current discussions about current events like the Super Bowl and World Cup and how they pertain to collecting.

    The podcast team of Ryan Greene, Steve Sloan, Jack Archer, and Chris McGill do a fine job of keeping listeners entertained and informed.

    Was hoping for more behind-the-curtain PSA news, updates, info, etc. instead of general sports takes.

We are always wanting to know status updates even how little details you provide us. Some info is better than no info. Also, to skip the updates on any episode doesn’t make any sense. Please include them at the beginning of every episode like you sometimes do. Can you go a little more in-depth as well? Like how many grad... more

    Truly an amazing podcast to listen to if you’re a collector of sports cards. Fun being able to listen in to conversations when it feels as if no one around you knows anything about the hobby
