A new film from the host of the Long Gone podcast, Michael Dault. Billions of dollars are generated each year in the sports memorabilia and trading card industry, but who are the buyers and sellers? What is the actual value of what is being sold? Hobby Hustle follows three separate people who became involved in the polarizing obsession that changed their lives forever. The documentary hits all angles of the hobby. Three of the main stories the film follows are of a kid who becomes youtube famous as well as locally famous for collecting and so he decides to start a brick and mortar hobby store. We follow a man and his family who found millions of dollars worth of baseball cards in their relative's attic and then we follow another man who went to prison for 6 years for forgery-- a master forgery con man who sold fake memorabilia he signed to thousands of victims. There are little stories of other collectors and aspects of the hobby woven in between these main stories. The film is a love letter as well as cautionary tale about the sports trading card and memorabilia hobby. Hobby Hustle is available on Apple TV and Amazon on 2/16
