    Episode 21: May 1980
    Jan 15 2024

    We're back with May 1980 and Rock & Gem is once again trying to convince us that minerals are a good investment and also teaching us how to use up every last bit of silver to make jewelry. We probably won't be using those ideas any time soon, but we did get some good, kinky tips from the Frantic Fumbler.

    Episode 20: April 1980
    Jul 2 2023

    The 1980s are here and money is on everyone's mind, or at least on the minds of Rock & Gem contributors. We read about sky-high silver prices and how to protect your dollars by investing in diamonds. The Frantic Fumbler gives us his reasons for why so few young people are getting into the hobby and we go back to a time when buying direct from a manufacturer was a new, innovative idea.

    Episode 19: The Mineralogical Record Vol. 5 #4
    Jun 7 2023

    To finish out the 1970s we take a break from Rock & Gem and read an issue of The Mineralogical Record to get a little more perspective on what the hobby was like during the decade. Although both magazines share a related subject, they could hardly be more different.
