The Mana Pool
Join Brian, Mike, Dirk and Chewie as they discuss all things Magic: The Gathering. Since there are plenty of tournament and strategy podcasts out there, we've decided to focus on the fun of the game in all its many forms, from Prereleases to multiplayer free-for-alls to whatever else we can come up with. Give us a listen!

Neverending Preview Season has returned! We're talking about all the Theros Beyond Death cards that had been previewed when we recorded! We're covering the mechanics, the planeswalkers, and everything else! We're also discussing (briefly but importantly) the lack of a colon in the title of the set, when the next set clearly has a colon in it. Chewie has a theory!

Also, it's the last episode of TMP of 2019! We hope you all have a fabulous winter holiday and the end of your year is awesome! We'll see you in 2020!

It's time for another installation of Brian's custom MTG RPG, Heirs of Trivester! The last time we saw our heroes they had barely taken out a vicious noggle mage controlled by Icolnir after making their way through a cavernous labyrinth. This episode picks up right there, with our weary travelers still bleeding on the floor of the cave.

We'll hear all about what is happening on this plane, get a bit of a history lesson, and manage to pick up some sweet new gear! You know, since most of ours didn't survive the boss fight. It's one of our mostly-narrative RPG episodes, but it's all stuff we're gonna need to know to find our way off of this freakin' plane!

Find all the MTG RPG episodes here: http://themanapool.com/tag/mtg-rpg/

The dorks are back after taking the week off for Thanksgiving, and we are in rare form. The actual point of this episode is simple - do a Mythic Conscription for Urza's Legacy. Nice and simple, right?

But since the dorks were in such rare form, we sort of strayed off topic. A lot. Pretty much everyone says something that, in a perfect world, would be cut from the final podcast. But as this is not a perfect world, you get to hear all our nonsense!
