Beloved listeners,

MichaelJ and BDM meet on a street corner outside a coffee shop in the West Village of New York City.

Per normal, BDM gets to see all the models passing by while poor Mike looks at BDM, a brick wall, &c.

Topics include Mike’s new book [WHICH YOU SHOULD TOTALLY GO BUY RIGHT NOW] The Official Miser’s Guide at StarCityGames.com, how to produce the life results you want, and the spoiled cards various from the upcoming Return to Ravnica; but sadly, no basketball AT ALL.

Michael J Flores – @fivewithflores
Brian David-Marshall – @Top8Games

Mike gets back from Hawaii so Mike and BDM podcast… over Skype.

Literally.

They have been in different cities week after week and are finally both back in NYC… and decide to try Skype.

Topics include Linsanity, Jon Finkel in the Top 8, Pro Tour Dark Ascension in general, and envisioning disparate possible futures.

You know, everything.

So basically BDM and I were casting over Skype and arguing about why our last podcast didn’t go up and at some point in ye olde cast BDM is like “we could just send this to Chris Otwell and link to it” … So that’s what we did! (you can listen to the interchange in this cast) (casto would have been up on MTGCast anyway).

So… Here it is!

You didn’t think Mike Flores and I would let the year slip by without at least one more podcast did you?

Okay we thought so too but just before the Christmas break we managed to sit down — along with special guest Steve Sadin — to reflect on the year gone by, talk about comic books, and pine for our various struggling NBA teams. If you listen closely you can find out exactly what it is about Luis Scott-Vargas’ recent online interactions that has prompted actual feelings of jealousy from Flores.

Hope you all had a great holiday break — be it for Chanukah, Christmas, Mothra’s Birthday or whatever — and are raring to go for the New Year. I leave you with this image from a recent Modern match because — well, because I want to use this image as often as possible.

Hope to see you all in Austin!

It has been a long time but Mike and I finally sat down and caught up on some of the latest Organized Play changes with more than a smattering of Mike’s recent obsession with Street Fighter. The exact topic of the podcast is a little tough to pin down since we had not done a ‘cast in quite some time and had plenty of stuff to talk about. There should be a little something for everyone but, alas no jackhammers. We made up for it with a special underground excursion toward the end of the podcast.

We probably won’t get another chance to update before I get back from Worlds so good luck to everyone in San Diego and San Francisco and have a great Thanksgiving!

After a long break — and an apocryphal ‘cast that never materialized — Michael J Flores and I settled in for a long podcasting session to discuss just about every card in Innistrad. And when I say “settled in” I actually mean it since we opted to podcast from the uneven floors of the Top8Magic offices rather than the windy, jackhammer laden streets of Manhattan. Everybody loves Liliana and Snapcast Mage but what are some of the hidden Constructed gems of Innistrad? The podcast is broken up into five sections going in WUBRG order — with lands, multicolors, and artifacts randomly tacked onto the red section — and we did our best to sort it all out.
