MeTV is currently airing the sixth season of Collector’s Call, hosted by Facts of Life star Lisa Whelchel, and viewers have already seen some amazing collections, including Hot Wheels, Snoopy and pop culture memorabilia of Drew Barrymore, Cyndi Lauper . This month brings even more exciting collections — check them out on Sundays at 6:30pm ET on MeTV, all summer long.

Let’s find out more about a few of the episodes you can look forward to this month.

On Sunday, June 15, Janay Smith is giving the world a look into her collection of sports memorabilia, which is worth a shocking 100 million dollars. The collection was passed down to her by her father, the late Jock Smith, founding partner of The Cochran Firm; he had a passion for collecting historic sports memorabilia, curating the most extensive sports collection in the country. Will Smith be able to part with any of the items to make a trade? Tune in to find out and see some items including Muhammad Ali‘s trunks and training robe, Kobe Bryant‘s #8 autographed jersey, and Jim Brown‘s MVP trophy.

On June 22, Whelchel will take a look in the collection of registered dietician, nutritionist and public speaker David Meinz who has been collecting odd fitness fad items from the past including LaMar Reducing Soap, Trim Reducing Cigarettes, and Hadacol — the vitamin elixir for the whole family that’s 24-proof alcohol.

At the end of the month, on June 29, things will get very nostalgic as David Schafter shows off his collection of toys, comic books and other collectibles from childhood, which have all been kept in pristine condition. His collection includes a very rare Batman and Justice League playset — and a 1982 Mad Magazine parody of The Facts of Life, which will certainly be very interesting to Whelchel.
