July 14, 2017 Brainstormbrewery #247: Meowloro
After several weeks of new and returning guests, the show return to its regular lineup of hosts and DJ. With a lull before the new set drops, a ton of knowledge is shared as the cast hits breaking bulk, pick of the week and clears a swath of listener emails. Topics include how to track price movements, finding rare booster packs, building relationships with GP vendors, and speculations on Commander 2017. We learn that Corbin is to blame for terrible deck names, and Jason does his best impression of Wizard’s customer service.

July 07, 2017 Brainstormbrewery #246: Hour of Devastation Set Review
Today we are joined by Phil DeLuca of the Commanderin’ podcast for the Hour of Devastation set review. Since this set looks to be much spicier in Commander than Standard, we invited Phil on to share his perspective. Also, DJ tells perhaps the worst joke in BSB history.
