Meet Our Breakers

Cody’s been a part of the Mojobreak team since 2020, serving as the producer and 4th mic of their long running podcast The Hype. He’s also a digital media producer, social media coordinator, on-air personality and breaker. Whatever job you can name at Mojobreak, chances are Cody’s probably done it! Before getting back into the hobby, Cody worked for almost a decade in Bay Area sports radio. From 2012 to 2020 he was a producer at KNBR 680 then at 95.7 The Game in San Francisco where he worked on broadcasts for the San Francisco 49ers, San Francisco Giants, and Golden State Warriors. Cody’s passion for sports cards, especially baseball cards, was rekindled when he arrived at Mojobreak. The first cards he ever collected were 2002 Topps Baseball and they’re still his favorite set to collect today. Besides collecting, Cody enjoys karaoke, good beer, baseball, movie musicals and going to Disneyland with his wife and son.

A full time sports card breaker since 2014, Conrad aka Six Point Five or Crad6.5 initially fell in love with the hobby like most in the early 1990’s. After rediscovering the hobby through YouTube box openings in the early 2010’s from early pioneers including Infinity, Firehand, and of course Mojobreak, Conrad realized there was a new emerging path to forge in the hobby and what was possible through box breaks. Now, after almost ten years of group breaking under his belt, the most satisfying part of all is still the simple and plain joy of opening packs and sharing in the excitement of big and small hits with the passionate collectors in the Mojobreak community.

Dan started collecting cards at the age of 6 when his father first purchased a 1988 Topps Factory Set. He continued collecting cards into his early teens but took a hiatus during his high school years into his early 20’s. In 2010, with the help of his long-time high school friend Doug Caskey, they started Mojobreak. The idea was to start a website that would allow any collector to join a group break (which at that time was a completely new concept). With seasoned industry peers having some push back about the concept, Doug and Dan were persistent about getting manufacturers and distributors on-board with the idea and it started to really grow the category. Now over a decade later group breaking is extremely common. One could argue that it is the primary way for collectors to collect sports cards. Today, Dan still collects his bay area teams (minus the 49ers) Rams!!! Who’s House?? He also enjoys collecting music memorabilia and music instruments.

Doug’s love for cards started in 1991 when he and his Dad completed the Stadium Club baseball set. In 2010 Doug and good friend Dan got back into their passion for collecting cards and started Mojobreak with just $450, a laptop, and passion. The passion for this hobby still courses through Doug’s veins as he views work as a fun place to be. “I’m very lucky to be able to be surrounded by great passionate people that make Mojobreak better than I could have ever imagined it to be back in 2010.” Today you can find Doug looking for Buster Posey Chrome rookies, Stephen Cury rookies, vintage, and that ever illusive 52 Mantle. Born and raised in Santa Clara, he has 2 beautiful girls that he hopes will open a pack on camera someday for you guys.

Jacob grew up in the East Bay Area where he played basketball, football, baseball, water polo and even swam a little. Once he realized becoming a professional in any of those sports was out of the question, he turned his career sites towards the sports world. As a young kid he started collecting memorabilia, cards, and shoes. He quickly became obsessed and started to become very eager to learn everything he could. He started as a teen buying and reselling things he collected. And whatever he wanted to keep, he kept. He used the profits to collect even more for himself. Shortly after, he started selling on eBay as a regular job. He would spend hours in thrift stores and at garage sales hunting for unique items to flip and to collect. Since then, he has realized being in an environment involved with major sports is his true calling. He now finds himself as a card breaker for MojoBreak ripping packs and interacting with customers. In addition to his career with MojoBreak he enjoys spending time with his girlfriend, his dogs, and keeping up to date with most major sporting events. He also enjoys lifting weights, playing video games, traveling and listening to music.
