Original Airdate: Jul 1, 2025

A few topics sprinkled in this week's episode.First, the silly card of the week starts things off (8:15), followed by a review of some comments and pickups from this week, including Carlos' World Series of Poker-themed COMC pickup (15:04).Out of pity for Eric, then they briefly discuss 'the hockeys', including Brad Marchand NOT being a Bruin going forward and Mitch Marner going to Vegas in a sign and trade deal (36:45).Then, in the main topic, Carlos gives a brief overview of the first two episodes of the new Brian Gray Podcast. Mainly focusing on the second episode, as Angel Reese is discussed along with BG's love of getting base cards in high-end breaks and influencers. (46:09)This conversation on influencers then branches into a discussion on the idea and definition of influencers and how the larger the platform, the more complicated and important it becomes to become clearer and more thoughtful in "takes" and opinions shared.
