Brainstorm Brewery

The gang is joined by resident 5th Host Ray Perez Jr. (@rayfuturepro) to talk about Modern, how much Ray doesn’t like Modern, what could get unbanned in Modern, what will get banned in Modern, which GPs and PT events Ray will go to if it means playing Modern and Modern. It felt like that was all we talked about but we did like 90 minutes on this one to make up for not having a show last week. Oh, and no Corbin, so that’s a bonus. We talked about him but it got dirty so that will likely end up on After Hours. Just listen to the episode already.

The gang is joined by Magic artist Aaron Miller (@aarondraws) to talk about the world of illustrating our wacky children’s card game. Ever wondered how Aaron got his start, how he fits into the community or where he has hidden squirrels on iconic Magic art? This is the episode for you. Are you going to feign being too cool to listen to the episode because you think art is for nerds? Shut up and listen, it’s still Brainstorm Brewery, get over yourself. You just might learn something. You might also want to support his Kickstarter campaign for custom tokens.

 

* Aaron Miller (@aarondraws) is our guest

* How did Aaron get his start?

* What is Magic art all about?

* I realize that above bullet point is vague. It’s a long discussion.

* Seriously, we didn’t transition to new topics as much as just riff for a while.

* No Pick of the week, we didn’t want to date the episode.

* His website is http://www.aaronbmiller.com/

* You can find our Goblin tokens on his site or on our site

* Help his Kickstarter get to 500 backers!

Sleep is for the weak. At least that is what Jason and Marcel want you all to believe as they both pick the first week of February to have their kids. Marcel has to bow out this week due to child-related obligations so the gang gets a very special guest to fill in – Mr. Frank Lepore (@FrankLepore), hot off of his first ever PT where he finished Top 8 which we hear is pretty good. Frank has a lot to talk about and the gang wastes no time interrogating him. Want to know the future of Modern? Look no further.

 

* Frank Lepore (@franklepore) is our guest this week

* How did the PT go? (Spoiler Alert – Top 8)

* How did the Eldrazi deck perform

* Bans necessary?

* What stops the Eldrazi decks?

* Shadows over Innistrad discussion!

The eldrazi are great, but their names could be a lot more distinct. World Crusher? Reality Bruiser? I sometimes think the price of Thought-Knot Seer is so high because it’s the only Eldrazi people are able to identify and buy on purpose without trying to buy something else. The gang keeps getting tripped up on the names. Listen and laugh at them as they get confused. Come for their confusion, stay for one of the most insightful episodes in a long while. I figure like 10% of our total listeners read the show notes and those who do are the most dedicated. I don’t know why I preach to the choir. Still, I’m making the case for this episode whether you like it or not, so strap in. We discuss Standard and Modern and read some e-mails and make fun of Corbin and he tries to make fun of us back and we laugh at him and we even do Pick of the Week. Remember that segment? Well it’s back! You knew there was a reason this was your favorite podcast. It’s because it’s the best. Now stop reading like a nerd and put our audio entertainment in your head holes already. Brainstorm Brewery OUT.

 

* Weird intro. It’s hard to know what will make the final cut.

* Standard results!

* Modern results!

* E-mails! Send us your e-mails and we’ll read them!

* Pick of the WEEEEEK! It’s baaaaack!

There were lots of happenings the last few weeks and since we didn’t get to talk about anything last week due to the set review, we decided to jimmy jam everything into one action-packed episode and get caught up. There were prerelease weekend shenanigans, GP Oakland was a thing, multiple bannings happened and Reddit showed how bad they are at reading comprehension and how good they are at pillorying innocent WotC employees. There’s a lot to cover, so why not stop reading the show notes because reading is for nerds, and sit back and put this podcast in your head holes. You’re about to be taken to value town.

 

* Salty Corbin

* Gp Oakland stories

* Prerelease weekend!

* Bannings? What do they mean?

* Ryan and Corbin talk about homebrews and it’s Jason’s turn to be salty

Stop saying “Buyout” because you’re almost certainly using it incorrectly. There were some price corrections, some runs and some hype this week and the gang gets to the bottom of what happened.

The episode begins like all good episodes with a slip of the tongue that derails the cast for ten minutes. When you hear that, you know it’s going to be a good one and this is no exception. Oath spoilers, talk about past technology and resolutions for the new year are all on the docket. There’s a reason this is your favorite podcast.

2015 was a wacky year for this Children’s card game. Jobs were gained and lost, cards were leaked, tournaments were won, Vegas happened and what happened in Vegas needs to stay there for the most part. 2016 will be full of diaper changes and a lack of a core set and leaks being severely punished. It’s hard to know for sure what the future will hold, so the gang takes a look back at 2015 and what it all meant.
