EPISODE 100 IS HERE!
And we couldn't be less prepared... I really wish we had come up with something fun and exciting for this huge milestone, but we didn't. I guess we might as well do some housekeeping in the mine since we have the time. That front door hasn't been closing all the way.
If we did plan something, it would probably include some amazing returning guests like:
Mike Carrozza from Am I The Bolcast
Joe Johnson from Table Top Jocks
Tyler from Play to Win
Ken Baumann
Comedian MTG
Lua Stardust from Scrybabies
Oh well. Maybe we'll be more prepared for Episode 200.
Stay Salty!

Welcome to Episode 97! 
Nick hops in the minecart as Tony finishes up his musical duties. 
In today's episode, we talk about some classic salt of deal loopholes, changing targets after you've picked them, and when your friends stop you from "doing the thing" but the thing involves obliterating their board states. 
Also new playgroups, attractions are lame, and I have over 300 confirmed...

Welcome to Episode 91!
We're doing something a little different today with our first ever episode of Salty Tales!
While we were at MagicCon Chicago, we walked around the convention floor and asked people "What makes you salty?", and we recorded all of the responses! So today, we are going through as many of these answers as we can in a lightning round of salty tales. From extra turns to late game board wipes to the evils of landfall, we cover it all.
We had a lot of fun making this episode, and we hope you enjoy it too! Find us at a future convention to give us your salt. 
Also, Mike's mom wrote a book, and you should read it!Annie Bot by Sierra Greer
