In this episode of Keeping Skor, we explore button collecting and how everyday objects can hold unexpected meaning.

Lisa shares her perspective on collecting buttons—not as simple sewing supplies, but as small artifacts connected to clothing, history, and design. Each button carries traces of where it came from, what it was attached to, and how it was made.

Like many collectors, she isn’t just gathering objects - she’s preserving details. Materials, craftsmanship, and subtle differences become part of a larger story about how objects move through time.

This episode looks at how collecting doesn’t have to be about rare or expensive items. Sometimes it’s about paying attention to the things we see every day - and discovering that they hold more meaning than we ever realized.

In this episode of Keeping Skor, we explore the world of tarot cards and oracle decks and what it means to collect objects that aren’t just owned - but used.

Casey shares her experience with these cards not as a traditional collector, but as a practitioner. For her, each deck is a tool - a way to reflect, ask better questions, and shift perspective. What begins as a conversation about tarot and oracle decks transitions into something deeper: a look at how objects can shape the way we think – or even see our world.

Like many collectors, she isn’t just gathering things - she’s building a system of meaning. Her decks act as mirrors, time capsules, and prompts for self-reflection. Through ritual, repetition, and interpretation, the act of collecting becomes something internal.

This episode of Keeping Skor is less about prediction - and more about perspective. About how we use objects to understand ourselves, and why certain things stay with us long after we find them.

In this episode of Keeping Skor, we explore the world of movie collecting - and how collecting films can become something much deeper than owning physical media.

Corey shares how his relationship with movies began in childhood, from drive-in theaters to limited access at home, and how those early experiences shaped the way he thinks about film, memory, and collecting.

But this isn’t just about collecting movies. It’s about collecting experiences.

From carefully curated movie nights to recreating the feeling of a communal theater, Corey has built something that blends nostalgia, storytelling, and connection. Like many collectors, he isn’t just gathering objects - he’s preserving moments, memories, and a shared sense of meaning.

We talk about the shift from physical media to digital collections, the idea of “lost” films in the streaming era, and why the act of watching something together still matters.

Because sometimes what we’re really collecting… isn’t the thing itself.

It’s the feeling it gives us.
