The Wax Pack chronicles author Brad Balukjian’s remarkable road trip across the US in the summer of 2015, spanning 11,341 miles through thirty states in forty-eight days to tell the stories of a set of players who turned up in a random pack of 1986 of Topps baseball cards.
We were delighted to be joined by the author to find out what inspired his trip and how he came to bring the book to publication, and also by Rob from Bat Flips & Nerds and @BubbaOnBaseball to discuss the book in depth.
