Failing Up #18 of 18: The Voices We Let In
In this 18th and final episode of Failing Up, we welcome Dave, known on IG as @paperstreetsportscards. When Dave came back to the hobby, he did a little exploring and discovered cards he found interesting. But when he approached the so-called experts about his interests, they told him his point of view was wrong. They preached a "better" way of doing things. Spoiler alert: the experts were wrong.The Shallow End is hosted by Dave Schwartz @Iowa_Dave_Sportscards

Failing Up #16 of 18: It's not Failure, It's an Opportunity
Today’s guest is Marty, otherwise known as @signed1933goudey. He’s all about starts and stops, pushing and waiting, patience and passion. This series about sports cards might be called Failing Up, but to Marty, a little bit of struggle isn’t failing. It’s learning. It’s understanding. And it’s getting just a little bit better, one day at a time.The Shallow End is hosted by Dave Schwartz @Iowa_Dave_Sportscards
