The Howling Salt Mine

HSM 33: Updated Remarks

Hey Prospectors.
This episode is a little different from our normal episodes, and that is because we have removed Episode 33 from our podcast stream. This episode featured a guest that we have since come to learn behaved in a way that is firmly out of line with our values and the values of the podcast. Because of that we felt it was best to simply remove this episode.
So with that in mind, jump on to the next episode. Keep the salt train rolling, and thanks again for listening.
Thank you for understanding, and Stay Salty.
Sam, Mike & Tony

HSM 32: Performance Anxiety, a Will to Mill, and Todd

Welcome to Episode 32! 
In our episode today, we talk about a salty story where a flashed in creature redirects a bunch of salt, a player who never has interaction but always wants to interact, and a salt lord that runs from mill. We also chat about a recent salty tale of our own involving some long turns, convoluted combos, and pressure from the pod.

HSM 31: Goblin Mode, Trash Magic, and Siege Rhino

Welcome to Episode 31! Back to our regularly scheduled salty programming! 
In our episode today, we talk about dealing with "can't cast that" and getting politics out in the air explicitly, a soulful confessional, and signpost cards like Siege rhino that hint at a deck's power level. We also chat about some of our favorite cEDH decks that we are brewing right now.

HSM 30: The Secret Santa Special

Welcome to Episode 30! 
It's a post-Christmas wrap up with the boiz! Come with us and deck the halls while we talk through our annual EDH Secret Santa tradition.
For the past three years, we have built EDH decks for each other and exchanged them for the holidays. We talk about each year of deckbuilding, the decks we made, and how each deck performed in the pod. Buckle in for a trip down memory lane. 
Also Tony made me say "the boiz".

HSM 29: New Year, New Players, and New (stack) Resolutions

Welcome to Episode 29! Happy New Year from the HSM crew to you! 
In our episode today, we talk about ways to teach Magic to new players, deck power levels and salt when you're playing a "7", and being mindful of triggers on the stack and dealing with take backs. It's our first episode of the year, and we take a bit of time to catch up and talk about podcast resolutions. 
And here is a link to the very complex power level table referenced in one of the posts.

HSM 28: Infect Redux, Blue is Good, and Refusing to Win

Welcome to Episode 28! Tony is away and our buddy Pat (aka Snoranges) joins us in the Salt Mine!
In our episode today, we talk about whether infect deserves the hate it gets, the beauties of blue (because Tony is away), and when an opponent can win but doesn't. We also hear Pat's villain origin story about why he is such a master of salt! The vibes were good so we let this one go a little longer than normal.
