In this milestone 40th episode of The Commander's Pod, we’ve got a packed show with something for everyone! First up, Duncan, Jeff, and Sloan recount an unforgettable Tales from the Table, featuring a legendary Eluge story. Then, the crew dives into the world of meme cards—how do they feel about quirky releases like the SpongeBob Secret Lair? (Hint: it’s more than just a laugh!) Jeff’s back with Jeff’s Triggers, and we explore the ins and outs of Commander rules in That Doesn’t Do What You Think It Does—specifically, when to send your Commander to the command zone after it’s exiled or otherwise removed. Finally, the episode wraps with Marvel Madness as we discuss the Marvel: Foundations set, what we love, and how it might affect Standard moving forward. It’s a mix of laughs, strategy, and a deep dive into the latest Magic news. Don’t miss it!
In this episode of The Commanders Pod, we dive into the frustrating world of Secret Lair drops and the chaos they bring. That doesn't do what you think it does, kicks things off with a deep dive into a sticky rules interaction, where trying to kill a creature with a triggered ability on the stack won’t work quite the way you think! But the real meat of the episode comes later when we talk about the ongoing issues with Secret Lair drops, from the infamous Marvel SL fiasco to the early days of Mythic Edition and the 30th Anniversary Countdown.
We break down the frustration of queue errors, cart issues, and the recent revelation that a cheat allowed users to bypass the whole system. What started as a cool way to get limited-edition cards has turned into a nightmare for collectors, and we’re asking: What should Wizards of the Coast do to fix this broken system?
Join us for a passionate discussion of customer service, botched releases, and how Secret Lair could evolve—or if it’s even worth trying to fix at all!
In this episode of The Commander's Pod, Duncan and Sloan are joined once again by the legendary Jeff to dive into all things Commander!

They break down the set, discuss which cards are going to be absolutely gross in Commander, and speculate on how these Marvel-themed cards will shake up the format. Tune in for all the fun, laughs, and hot takes!
In the thrilling conclusion of our two-part series, we continue to explore the aftermath of the Rules Committee's recent changes.
