This week, we have the author of Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty's main story and Kaito Origin story, Akemi Dawn Bowman, on to talk all about her experience writing for Wizards of the Coast, including the daunting task of writing such a pivotal story set in an 18-year-old world for a 30-year-old franchise! We also cover Kaito being a good boy, Tamiyo's compleation, and how the robot uprising will flatten Jay's house first.

We're taking one last look back into the sunset as we wrap up all discussions about Outlaws of Thunder Junction in an interview with the author herself, Akemi Dawn Bowman! You may remember Bowman's work back in Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, where she wrote about a young man trying to find someone he'd lost while getting wrapped up in a multi-planar story featuring a villain's first-time story appearance and another villain's return to story after many years away. She does it again in OTJ, and we're here to ask her all about it!

To know your enemy, you must know their history, and this week we'll discuss the story of the Eldrazi in Magic, as well as what we know to be true about these terrors from beyond the thin veil of reality.
