WE FINALLY HIT A $1,000 MEGA GENGAR! 😱🔥

This week on PRIVATE CONVERSATIONS, we rip open a massive Pokémon 10-pack tin, trade Ascended Heroes boxes, and finally pull the $1,000 Mega Gengar! Larry also exposes a strange Walmart Pokémon raffle situation after getting charged different prices for the same 30th Anniversary boxes.

Then we're talking SICKO x YEEZY! Could Ian Connor's upcoming boot collaboration and the Yeezy 800 hiking shoe bring YEEZY back? We break down why hiking-inspired footwear is taking over.

Are Jordan 1s officially out of style? With the controversial MoMA Jordan 1 colorways coming and Jordan 1s constantly hitting 50% off, Ian explains why the greatest Jordan silhouette of all time can still be completely off-trend.

We also get into Lil Yachty's bizarre treatment of his artists, the foldable Union "Boneless" Dunk, fluffy BAPESTAs, Supreme x Martine Rose x Mike Tyson Dunks, Nike SB Air Max 95s, and the history connecting Stüssy, Supreme, Union and Undefeated.

PLUS: Ian brings viral Uncle Tetsu's Japanese cheesecake, Scott tries some new flavors, and we continue our StockX Road to 100 mystery box challenge! We're now 85 boxes deep with only 15 left to go!

The sneaker community has spoken… and apparently we're not the only ones who think the Victor Victor sneaker is OVERHYPED! 😂

This week on Private Conversations, we break down the backlash to our viral Victor Victor take and debate whether sneaker brands are manufacturing hype.

Ian pulls out the legendary Nike Air Yeezy 2 Solar Reds, Larry rocks Jordan 1 Banned Lows that are somehow selling for $75, and we ask the big question: WHY ARE TRAVIS SCOTT JORDAN 1 LOWS STILL SELLING WHILE EVERY OTHER JORDAN 1 IS DEAD?!

Scott breaks down his trade with Chef Greg for the Supreme Dunk SB Mean Greens, we discuss whether a Nike Air Yeezy 2 retro would still sell out, and react to NIGO x J-Hope bringing K-pop fans into sneaker culture.

We also get into older streetwear heads trying to dress young, the upcoming Corteiz Nike Shox, and the possible SGA x Nike Air Force 1 release honoring Virgil Abloh.

**IN THIS EPISODE:**

- We pull a SYLVEON SIR from Pokémon 30th Anniversary packs!

- Ian brings some questionable snacks from Cracker Barrel.

- STOCKX ROAD TO 100 HITS AN $850 KOBE!

This week on Private Conversations, we're joined by Flash Garments for Part 1 of a two-part episode.

Flash takes us through his journey as a rapper, artist, and theme song creator, including the story behind creating the official entrance theme for AEW's Swerve Strickland and what it's been like performing it at massive wrestling events around the world — including Wembley Stadium.

We get into his life on the road with AEW, performing alongside and building relationships with artists like Flatbush Zombies and his longtime friend Westside Gunn, and some of the wild stories he's collected traveling around the world through music and wrestling.

Of course, we also talk sneakers, fashion, and where the name Flash Garments comes from, along with his love for clothing and culture.

There were so many stories that we had to split this conversation into two episodes.

PART 2 DROPS NEXT MONDAY — and we'll get back into the usual Private Conversations chaos with Pokémon Pitstop, StockX Mystery Boxes, sneaker news, and a lot more with Flash.

This week on Private Conversations, somehow we ALL showed up wearing Nike SBs… and that kicked off probably the most sneaker-heavy episode we've ever done. 😂

We break down a ton of current and upcoming releases, including the Travis Scott Cactus Jack "Ostrich" Baby Blue Air Force 1 and Nike SB potentially shifting some of the energy from Dunks over to Air Force 1s.

Then we call Fat Joe's manager Rich, who gives us a look at the NEW red & white Terror Squad Air Force 1 that dropped in NYC that same day. 👀🔥

This week on Private Conversations:

• 📦 StockX Road to 100 — BOX #50!
• 💰 We switch to the $300 mystery boxes and pull a $720 SHOE
