このコンテンツについて
In this special episode of Sports Cards & A Cup of Joe, Taylor steps in for Joe and takes listeners on a thoughtful, nostalgic, and slightly quirky deep dive into one central question: Why do we collect?
Taylor reflects on his own collecting journey, beginning at age five with Topps baseball cards from his grandparents after Little League games. His childhood idol, Chipper Jones (specifically “baby-faced Chipper”), becomes the symbolic heart of his collection, and this nostalgia fuels a broader conversation about the psychology and emotional depth behind why we collect the things we do.
The episode explores:
-
The psychology of collecting
-
Historical examples of collecting
-
The emotional power of nostalgia
-
The real reason most collectors stay in the hobby
Taylor also challenges listeners to ask deeper questions—not just what someone collects, but why. Whether it’s baby-faced Chipper, Pez dispensers, or Squishmallows, every collection tells a story.
