Puck Junk · Interview: Billy Celio of Upper Decck | #84 | 3/3/2021

What goes into creating a set of hockey cards -- from concept to design to everything in between? Billy Celio, the Senior Product Manager for Upper Deck, joined us on the lastest Puck Junk Hockey Podcast to discuss how a set of hockey cards is created. Billy also gives details about the new 2020-21 Upper Deck Extended Series and 2020-21 Skybox Metal Universe sets. Plus, he talks about the inspiration behind the Portraits, Dazzlers and Puzzle Back insert sets.

It's a lot of material covered in a surprisingly short show. Give it a listen.

Puck Junk · 1996-97 Black Diamond Hockey Cards | #64 | 7/4/2020

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY IN AMERICA!!!

This week in absurdity, I mean, in this week's episode of the Puck Junk Podcast, Sal and I revisit the first appearance of an annual release by Upper Deck.  That release is the 1996-97 Upper Deck Black Diamond set.  Building this set is/was a huge undertaking and we discuss the merits of throwing SPs into a base run of cards. 

We also chat about the Virtual Expo and the fun we had as well as some of the latest NHL news.  Check it out and leave a comment either on the episode, here, PuckJunk.com, or wherever you get your Podcasts.  Not sure where?  Try one of these links below.
