    PSApod Review
    I just spent past two months listening to all episodes of the PSA podcast. Here's my review. This podcast has evolved from it's initial episodes where listeners were informed of the PSA backlog, to more current discussions about current events like the Super Bowl and World Cup and how they pertain to collecting. The podcast team of Ryan Greene, Steve Sloan, Jack Archer, and Chris McGill do a fine job of keeping listeners entertained and informed. I am neither a Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon or modern glossy collector, nor am I a basketball or football card collector. But sprinkled in between these topics are episodes containing interesting interviews, my favorites include #20, #32, #50, and #58. As this podcast has continued to develop, new features such as COR Score, Index, Buy/Trade/Hold and Guest Submission have developed to keep listeners interested. Surprisingly, there haven't been very many episodes about my interests: baseball or true vintage baseball card collecting. This is an area that needs to be explored in more detail. Overall, the PSApod is an good medium for any collector who wants to be in the know about current collecting trends. It's a little disappointing for those of us who've been collecting old stuff for a long time. If the team wants to make this a five-star podcast, be more inclusive and throw in something for old-time collectors a little more regularly too!

    More PSA please
    Was hoping for more behind-the-curtain PSA news, updates, info, etc. instead of general sports takes.

    Updates
    Backlog updates are relevant for us collectors everyday. Why would you say you will give backlog updates “when relevant”? That’s the main subject for nearly every PSA submitter. We are always wanting to know status updates even how little details you provide us. Some info is better than no info. Also, to skip the updates on any episode doesn’t make any sense. Please include them at the beginning of every episode like you sometimes do. Can you go a little more in-depth as well? Like how many graders you have working on the backlog instead of saying you have 80% working on the backlog? That doesn’t tell the full picture. You say you want to be transparent, then be transparent to us. Don’t take short cuts with us. There’s so much to talk about it’s endless. Spending 15 minutes on your Mail days doesn’t inform us about PSA whatsoever. Please can you restructure your episodes to meaningful content for us hobbyists and card submitters. Shouldn’t that be what your show is about? Have you started using your genamint machines and and what it actually does for the cards. How about talking about any future projects and improvements rolling out. You provided us with a few slides of your new building, how about adding the card grading and inspection areas? We still haven’t seen a video of the Santa Ana operation. It’s 2022 so can you all make an effort to show us what you’re all about. Don’t hold back. Thank you

    PSA podcast
    Truly an amazing podcast to listen to if you’re a collector of sports cards. Fun being able to listen in to conversations when it feels as if no one around you knows anything about the hobby
