Ken Goldin - "The Golden Touch" Series 2

[gonefishin]

I watched the first episode last night. Mr. Golden hasn't changed much since series 1. I kind of chuckled when he brought 10M in cash (supposedly) to tempt a rich fella into listing his T206 Wagner in a Golden auction. Interesting to see some of the "behind the curtain" happenings - that is if they aren't staged.

Anyone else have a take on episode 1?

It’s a pretty wild show. There’s also some unintentional comedy around a set of shiny cartoon cards.

I've watched a few episodes. This season has a cool personal aspect to it that I like. It was cool to see them talk to the kid who caught Jasson Dominguez's first home run at Yankee Stadium. Later on this guy who was the Spurs mascot for 30 years consigns one of his championship rings. There are some nice collector stories this season.

The show seems very scripted, but still find it very entertaining just because of all the cool items they have. I haven't finished Season 2 but after the Wagner it's been way more non-sports stuff than I'd like

I finished the series last night - worth the time. I could do without Golding doing a rap song about himself at the end of the series, but whatever. I enjoyed seeing the collections.

The alleged staff...All I can think when I watch that trio of plucked-eyebrow greasy douchebags in action is that the SNL Night At The Roxbury guys somehow were allowed to breed and had sons.

Shot at Ken's daughter seems a little unnecessary.

Apparently she graduated from Syracuse with a degree in Economics. I took Intro to Economics freshman year in college and got a C-. And Economics and me parted company forever. I'm thinking she's kind of smart.
