  • Episode 106 - Rebecca Unplugged: Confessions of a Collector’s Wife
    Jul 18 2025

    Welcome back to another episode of The Top Shelf Cookie Sniper Hockey Show Podcast — the show where cardboard dreams come true, eBay saves get celebrated like Stanley Cup game-winners, and… tonight, things get personal.

    Today, we peel back the top loader and look behind the curtain… at the real MVP behind one of the hobby’s most notorious puckhead collectors — the one, the only — California Dave’s wife, Rebecca!

    She joins us to talk about what it’s really like living with stacks of Young Guns, the occasional bubble mailer avalanche, and a man who treats a PSA 10 like it’s a newborn baby.

    We’ll ask the hard-hitting questions like:

    • Did you know what you were signing up for when he said “I do,” — and did you think “I do” included a wall of graded cards?

    • Is card collecting a charming hobby, or guys collecting other guys printed on cardboard?

    • And what’s this mysterious owl podcast that somehow steals her heart?

    So get ready — it’s honest, it’s hilarious, and it’s full of unexpected wisdom.

    Because behind every great collector… is someone trying not to roll their eyes while he explains why “this parallel is actually low-key a grail.”

    Let’s get into it — here’s Rebecca, and trust us — she’s a hoot. 🦉

  • Episode 105 - Gem Mint? Or Gem Mess?
    Jul 7 2025

    Welcome back to The Top Shelf Cookie Sniper Hockey Show! — where the takes are sharp, the corners are soft, and unlike some Young Guns… we’re always well-centered.

    In Episode 105, we’re diving stick-first into Upper Deck’s quality control — or as some collectors call it, “quality roulette.” We’re talking roller marks, off-centering, dinged corners, and cards that look like they went a few rounds with Ryan Reaves.

    But it’s not all rough edges — we’re also breaking down the real Gem Rates on Young Guns rookies. Is grading still a smart play? Or are PSA 10s becoming rarer than a clean bench in a Battle of Alberta?

    So, grab your sleeves, prep your magnifiers, and pray for sharp corners — it’s time to find out if your next Young Gun is bound for glory... or destined for the dollar bin.

    Let’s rip into it.
