Episode 569 – Throne of Eldraine Prerelease Field Recordings
It’s Prerelease time again! Chewie, Mike, Brian, and Sam (!) all went to House of Cards in Winston-Salem NC to play! First, Chewie tells the story of the weekend of Scott’s wedding and the horrible, horrible sunburn while he & Mike are in the car on the way to the shop. We didn’t get any pre-tournament recordings with Brian & Sam because they were playing a game of Brawl.
Once the tournament begins you’ll get to hear from us all between rounds as we discuss how the games went. Which dork will be undefeated? Which dork couldn’t win even if his opponent left halfway through the round? I guess you’ll just have to listen!

Episode 568 – Happily Ever After
The dorks dive once more into the Throne of Eldraine previews! We’ve got plenty of cycles to finish – hybrid cards, lands, uncommon knights, legendary creatures and artifacts, lots of stuff! While we’re at it we’re bouncing around and hitting whatever other good stuff we can find, whether it’s super flavorful, an obvious fairy tale reference, or blatantly powerful. We’ll even hit that one blue mythic (yeah, you know the one) and discuss reasons it could be mythic and just how powerful it really could be.

Episode 567 – Run, Run As Fast As You Can
The dorks are back to discuss even more Throne of Eldraine cards! You like fairy tales? What about knights? What about fairy tales…with knights? What about flavorful cards? Or billy goats? Big bad wolf? Excalibur? Trolls? The Questing Beast? The way every fairy tale begins? Randomly suplexing bears? Is any of this sounding good yet?
…what if I offered you a Bog Naughty?

Episode 560 – Down the Eldraine
Magic was at San Diego Comic-Con this year, and boy did they drop some doozies on us! On this episode the dorks are diving right into all the art and information revealed about Throne of Eldraine, the next Magic set. Be warned: there’s a lot of random speculation and nonsense. And yes we even talked about poop, albeit briefly.
After that we’re diving into the booster changes outlined in Mark Rosewater’s Project Booster Fun article. We’ll go over all the new flavors of boosters that aren’t new, the one that is new, and all the new promo cards (most of which aren’t new).
Let us know what you think about this unstructured discussion of news, which isn’t usually something we do.
