In this episode of The Innovators & Investors Podcast, host Kristian Marquez sits down with David Brem, Managing Director of the University of Michigan’s Zell Lurie Commercialization Fund. David offers a rare glimpse into the inner workings of a student-led endowment fund focused on early-stage, sector-agnostic investments primarily in the Michigan ecosystem. He shares insights on their unique, founder-first investment approach, how they navigate pre-seed to Series A venture opportunities, and the rigorous due diligence process involving qualitative analysis over pure numbers. David also discusses his roles with global VC networks including Electro Ventures, the London Venture Capital Network, and Level Up Ventures, illustrating how he bridges U.S., European, and Australian venture ecosystems with a special focus on mobility and transportation tech. Highlights include deep dives into emerging trends like eVTOLs (electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft), smart city infrastructure, and safety innovations in aviation technology. Listeners will gain valuable perspectives on how diverse expertise—from military intelligence and management consulting to academic ventures—shapes David’s investment thesis and community-building efforts. The episode also explores the importance of networking, adding value in the startup ecosystem, and practical advice for aspiring investors or entrepreneurs navigating the venture capital world. With stories of successes, challenges, and future outlooks, this episode is a must-listen for innovators, founders, and investors aiming to understand the intersection of academia, technology, and venture capital in today’s dynamic landscape.

Who’s Holding the Cards? Understanding Leverage in the Hobby 24:30

۳ روز پیش24:30

24:30

In this week’s flagship episode, we’re talking about leverage — the invisible force that shapes every deal in the hobby. Whether you're buying, selling, or just circling a card, leverage is always in the room. It's not about the price of the card. It’s about who’s asking, who’s telling, and how the conversation is framed. From story sales on Instagram to dealer tables at shows, understanding leverage helps you move from reacting to navigating. This episode breaks down: How leverage is gained, lost, and given away Why silence is a power move How framing a deal first can shift everything Subtle language choices that signal strength or surrender Real examples from recent hobby interactions Shoutout to @roundtree13_cards for sending in this topic. This one is for every collector who’s ever chased, negotiated, or hesitated.

Welcome to the first episode of The Football Card Podcast — a new weekly show hosted by Pack Nicholson (@packnicholson) and powered by Stacking Slabs. This episode sets the tone for everything to come. We’re talking football cards, collecting strategy, eBay negotiation tactics, player nostalgia, and why certain sets (like 2002 Finest and 2010 Topps Chrome) hit harder than others. Pack and Brett each break down recent pickups — including an Eddie George memorabilia refractor, a Matt Forte gold, and an Andre Johnson Colts gold vinyl — and discuss what they’re building and why. They cover the psychology behind card buying, the emotional rollercoaster of NFL fandom, and how running backs are quietly carrying the culture.

Conversations Are Currency: Why Talking Cards Leads to Landing Cards 21:14

10 روز پیش21:14

21:14

Most collectors spend their days refreshing save searches and chasing listings. But some of the best cards? They never hit the market. In this episode, Brett shares two recent pickups—both landed without a public listing and made possible through one thing: conversation. These deals weren’t about luck. They were the result of trust, timing, and building real relationships in the hobby. If you're tired of missing out or feeling stuck in your routine, this episode is your reminder that the best deals often come from the quiet places—the DMs, the group chats, and the unexpected texts from fellow collectors. This one’s about playing the long game and understanding why the best cards in your collection might not come from eBay… but from a conversation you start today.

This week on The WNBA Card Podcast , we ask the big question: what will it take for another WNBA player—not named Caitlin Clark—to break through to collectors outside the space? Brett and Katelyn explore the current dynamics shaping the W card market, discuss how narrative and rhetoric shape demand, and spotlight why players like Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart deserve more hobby attention. We get into: Why comparing Clark to Curry helps collectors connect How Sabrina Ionescu’s market is impacted by expectations Why Stewie is the most undervalued winner in the hobby What the $274K Black Finite sale tells us about parallel preferences The future of college cards and whether they can rival pro releases We also share our weekly pickups, celebrate a collector on the rise, and round it out with some buzzer beater questions—including Brett’s all-time Notre Dame starting five. This is the Caitlin Clark episode... but it’s also a reminder that the WNBA has depth, stories, and stars worth your collecting attention.
