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.

The dorks dive back into the Heirs of Trivester, Brian's custom-made Magic-based RPG game! Last time Karim, Alaric, and the Angel were bumbling around the forest fighting big ants and big cats, but now we're finally getting closer to tracking down the mysterious Icolnir. Apparently we're not supposed to trust her appearance but we are supposed to show her great respect. No problem, right?

If you have no idea what’s going on here, please refer to these episodes for the full story of Heirs of Trivester:
