Because I'm Carlos
The audio version of my YouTube channel (Because I'm Carlos), this podcast features my conversations with fellow Sports Card collectors, industry insiders, and hobby questions brought from listeners and viewers.
Enjoy the conversations which are hobby-based, but can certainly delve into other areas of collecting and life.
