Episode notes
Join Jesse as he ventures out into the real world for a special bonus episode called Bullseye’s Gold. It’s a tribute to California’s Gold – a classic public TV show hosted by the legendary Huell Howser.
For the inaugural journey, he drove down to Anaheim, California. Home to Disneyland, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, and the Paper World Stationery Expo 2026 – which is what he covered. Why Paper World? It sounded fun, and we asked our audience where they wanted Jesse to go. Paper World was the prohibitive favorite – beating out Lego Conventions, a Renaissance Faire, and more.
Jesse chatted with sticker collectors, journaling enthusiasts, and many more as he set out to answer the age-old question of which is better: stickers or stamps?
We’re presenting a sneak peek of a few of the conversations Jesse had at the event. If you like what you hear, we’ve got even more of it at maximumfun.org/joinbullseye .
