This is the first part of a mini-series for the Trading Card Preservation Society called Dave's Decades.

And if it goes well I guess we should probably do an episode from the future covering 2025.

Episode #6 finds Dave the Cardboard Junkie and Matt F. well rested after taking February off from podcasting. All that changes here when the dynamic duo chat about the Topps Tribute recall, a Mars Attacks Kickstarter, the passing of Leonard Nimoy, Marvel Cinematic Universe news, the new release calendar, and some listener Q and A.

In Part 1 we discuss our Black Friday purchases, Donruss factory sets, Panini's problems with relics, our first ever book review about a book featuring Topps Star Trek cards, a closer look at 2014 Topps Dynasty, and Hammer Films DVD collection. Look for Part 2 next week! 

Welcome back to another episode of the Trading Card Preservation Society. Our topics tonight include the return of Barry Bonds to baseball cards, the very old stickers of 2014 Topps Supreme, the problems of buying cards site unseen. In pop-culture we have Marvel’s Phase 3 films, Garbage Pail Kids, and Doctor Who cards. And as always the release calendar and your Q & A.

It's three week since Halloween so what better time to release a Trading Card Preservation Society mini episode featuring Dave the Cardboard Junkie's review of Bela Lugosi's Ape Man. This was originally recorded during our Episode #1 recording session but we edited it out of that episode because of time considerations. But now we've taken that review and combined it with clips from the film for an audio and visual extravaganza!
