What is Keeping Skor?

Keeping Skor: Creativity, Curiosity, and the Things We Keep. A podcast about why people collect the things they love. Each episode begins with a collection - but the conversation quickly expands into something deeper: memory, imagination, and the choices we make about what matters. Through thoughtful conversations with collectors of all kinds, Keeping Skor explores the stories, passions, and meaning behind the objects people choose to keep.

Stephen:

This is Keeping Skor, creativity, curiosity, and the things we keep. I've been going to auctions and flea markets since I was a little kid. My first job was running a flea market stand with my dad. We sold junk, and it was awesome. Some of my best memories are waking up in the back of an old station wagon at 04:00 on a Sunday morning, pulling into a dusty parking lot packed with flea market connoisseurs searching for lost treasure.

Stephen:

You haven't lived until you're woken out of a dead sleep by a strange old man yelling, "Do you have any trains"? To my seven year old brain, this made perfect sense. He was looking for toy trains and he wanted first dibs. My sleep was not his concern. I loved the hunt then, I love it even more now.

Stephen:

I'm fascinated why certain objects move us while others fade into the background. I'm curious what the things we collect reveal about who we are, how we decide what has value, and why certain objects refuse to let us go. Each episode of Keeping Skor begins with a collection, but it's really a conversation about memory, imagination, and the choices we make about what matters. I'm Stephen Skorski, and this is Keeping Skor.
