If you thought our usual brotherly banter was chaotic, wait until you add our sister to the mix. Episode 13 of Wicked Good Pulls goes completely off the rails as Joe surprises us with our first true VIP guest: Leah!
But before we even get to the family reunion, we had to address a massive elephant in the room. Matt made a shocking confession: he is officially obsessed with Disney trading cards. After his kids had to literally drag him away from a Topps Chrome Disney display at a recent card show (The Collector Expo at The Great American Beer Hall in Medford, MA), he is fully ready to pivot. Naturally, this immediately inspired Mike to start hunting down vintage 1992 Disney packs for his own streams. Joe is actively questioning both of our sanity.
Here is a breakdown of the madness from this week’s episode:
Apocalyptic Survival Plans
We forced Leah to listen to our highly tactical, dystopian survival plan. While Matt handles food and Mike handles fire, we kindly delegated Leah to decorating the concrete bunker and petting the chickens right next to the slaughter table.
Frankie’s Card Show Hustle
Leah gave us a mom’s perspective on her son Frankie’s collecting journey. It turns out, card shows are incredible for teaching kids real-world business and haggling skills—even if it means negotiating with adults over soccer cards.
The Great Ethics Debate
We finally got a third-party ruling on our infamous Whatnot starting price debate (from Episode 6). Leah officially chose a side between Matt’s strict morals and Mike’s free-market capitalism.
Hacking the Whatnot Algorithm
Matt closes out the show by begging for bookmarks, explaining the exact science behind why pre-show bookmarks are the only way to keep the Whatnot algorithm happy.
