Meet the Team Behind the Breaks

We’re a husband and wife team turning hobby passion into pack-ripping fun—bringing collectors together one break at a time.

Meet Shawn – Your Break Host

Yo, I’m Shawn—breaker, collector, pack ripper, and your host here at That’s Just the Breaks.
I’ve been into cards for years, and I started this channel to share the excitement of hobby boxes, rookie chases, and those fire parallels you only dream about hittin’.

I don’t claim to be a pro—I’m just a guy who loves the hobby, loves the hunt, and loves building a community around the breakroom table (virtual or not).

And none of this would run nearly as smooth without my wife, Letitia, holdin’ it down behind the scenes:
She handles the editing
Runs all our social media
Keeps this ship on course

We even do wife breaks, pack wars, and the occasional mystery box showdown—because we’re all about keeping it fun and mixing things up.

Why the Name?

Because sometimes you pull a monster…
and sometimes you strike out.

That’s the hobby.
That’s the fun.
That’s just the breaks.

Come Join the Breakroom

We stream our breaks live on Whatnot and post the hits to YouTube.
Whether you’re buyin’ into a break, hangin’ out in chat, or just watchin’ for fun—we’re glad you’re here.
