Just 2 guys who talk about the Commander (EDH) format of Magic the Gathering too much and decide to burden the world with their thoughts and opinions.

We're back and we're grumpier than ever!  In this episode we discuss the state of MTG and how we feel things are going.  In case anyone was wondering, yes we get annoyed at things, no we don't stay on topic, and yes we do think Jace would look better in purple instead of blue.  I won't bore you with the rest of the details because you should already be listening to it.

The rodeo clowns are back with more talk about Outlaws at Thunder Junction! This week, Chris and Tim take a look at the four commander precons coming out with this new set.

Howdy there partner! It's time to rustle up some grub, sit by the campfire, and listen to Chris and Tim be stupid as they take a look at Outlaws of Thunder Junction. Lots of very cool cards in this set to have fight against each other in a fair and well-thought out manner. Which cards from the set are you most excited for?

Its fringe  time!! Chris and Tim head down the rabbit hole once again to see if there are any "diamond in the rough" legendary creatures who they think would make a good commander. This one actually might have found some promising leads.... Let us know if you would build any of these cards!

This week we're joined by the winner of our 12 Days of Giveaways contest Ryan!  He asked if we could talk about archenemy, to which we said "shut up nerd this is our podcast".  Luckily for him we couldn't think of a better idea so here we are.  Are you the archenemy of your pod?  Do you thrive when everyone targets you?  Does seeing the light leave people's eyes as you play yet another counterspell make you...

What better way to get out ahead of your opponents than by a little bit of ramp? In this episode, Chris and Tim discuss the many forms of mana ramp, including their favorite green spells. Does having ramp at instant speed make it better? Are mana rocks better than cultivate? How many forms of ramp should you be using? Feel bad for sad robot with us as they do a deep dive in how to be on top of the curve.

This podcast has been going on for almost 3 years now, and we have yet to have a sponsor.  This episode gives a little glimpse into why that is.  Who could love this duo of fart jokes and half baked innuendo?  Oh also we talk about superfriends at some point.  ENJOY

Happy Valentines Day / Superbowl! In this episode, Chris and Tim let our their inner children and rank the cards that have the cutest card art. The guys don't agree on many things, but apparently how they rank cute things is something they see very much eye to eye. Help us try to make sense of it. Be sure to check out the Facebook page for an image of our rankings!

It was Lord Magnus in the Study with the Candlestick! This week, Chris and Tim take a look at the new cards being released in Murders at Karlov Manor, the newest expansion. We suspect that collecting evidence may unveil a secret disguise that will help us solve the case. See what we did there?

Chris was traveling so Tim had to do an episode all by himself.  Seeing as he's not mature enough to handle that (and it would be boring) he invited his good friend Matt to learn about keywords he might not be familiar with.  It obviously went great and Matt is now a pro so listen in if you would like to also be a pro!  Or don't I'm not your father.

WE ARE BACK! After a long and arduous hiatus from the podcast, Chris and Tim have made their triumphant return for season 4! In the start of this season, the guys talk about "Playing on a Budget," a.k.a. "how do you make decks that are good and cheap?" It's a lot harder than you think... Also, they discuss how you take down those rich-blooded players with your pile of budget jank. Trust us, you can!

It's time for our year in review! 2023 has had many interesting twists in turns for magic, the world, and the crumbling ties between Chris and Tim. How many more seasons does Tim have in him before he inevitably can't stand Chris anymore? Is the opening sound bite Chris starting to prepare his son to take over as co-host? Are they able to add even more products to next year? Relive this year with us as we go down memory l...

Chris finally got his way, we're doing another deck tech episode!  It helps that there's not a new set to talk about (for once).   Spoiler alert, Chris' deck has white in it and Tim's deck has graveyard shenanigans.  Also if that's a spoiler alert for you then clearly you're new here and welcome!  Plz go download all our other episodes as soon as is convenient for you.  MKAY LOVE YOU ALL BYE!
