Host Matt Sammon discuses the new book "Singled Out" with author Andrew Maraniss. What started as a random card pull from a 1978 Topps pack will take you down the life path of Glenn Burke, Major League Baseball's first openly gay player. Maraniss shares how Burke was shoved aside to an early career end, while we take a look at 3 players who were part of Burke's life directly or indirectly.

Host Matt Sammon dives into a seldom known set about a seldom known league. In the winter of 1989-90, former Major League players brought their achy backs and creaky knees to the newly formed Senior Professional Baseball Association. The SPBA quickly developed from a zany idea, and just as quickly went away. While the 1990 SPBA Pacific baseball card set isn't much to write home about, how this league even got off the ground is.

Host Matt Sammon looks back at what is arguably Donruss' greatest  set. The 1989 set featured big rookies, stars, and an incredible colorful design. Best of all, it's still ridiculously affordable because it was right in the middle of the "junk wax" era.

Host Matt Sammon looks at another set that the program took a first look at many years ago, and then just moved on from.

Host Matt Sammon looks back at the sharp and fancy 1993 Fleer Flair set, which despite its impressive design and limited press run added an unnecessary layer of product to the already bloated hobby.

Host Matt Sammon looks back at the history of the "traded" sets and set extensions. What started out as a public service to notify fans that a player changed teams, became a marketing hook in the 70s before becoming a marketing advantage in the 80s. 

We also have some updates on our new YouTube channel (at https://bit.ly/3b2r4uf) and some changes coming to the podcast.
