I have two very attractive co-hosts this week to help bring in the new year with some new Kaldheim previews before the preview fire house starts up.

More importantly, both Brent and Alex let Tom know that someone very intelligent people released and shared a Tremors movie theme MTG set. It is truly a work of love, check out the reddit link to see the scans of the set: https://www.reddit.com/gallery/kmqhnd

After that, we press on into important topics such as what in the world is up with the Panini stickers that we loved from our childhoods? What the hell is Panini Blockchain? And Alex and Brent learned about the bizarre history of baseball's great Ted Williams and his head. https://www.sportscasting.com/why-was-baseball-hall-of-famer-ted-williams-decapitated/

I have two very attractive co-hosts this week to help bring in the new year with our first taste of Kaldheim! The first preview previews were dropping as we recorded, so we get to experience live the return of Sagas, Vehicles, Berserking EVERYTHING, and the mystery of a rather aggressive mine cart. Oh, Tom will likely be going to jail for having a Retroid Pocket 2.

Tom starts this off as a solo show discussing the ongoing Zendikar World Tour even on MTG Arena including some pretty fun preconstructed decks. Check out the other upcoming events in the Festival of Adventure series on MTG Arena as well.

Most importantly, the SEVENTH Tremors movie just released this week (Tremors: Shrieker Island) and you can catch right now on Netflix. Here is a wikipedia list of the preceding movies so you can watch them in order.

And the latter half of the show is saved by a guest co-host, Chemwiz! Great discussion and just more fun to talk to an actual person.

IKORIA!!!!!

We have an honest to god function reprint of Super-Duper Death Ray in Flame Spillhttps://scryfall.com/card/und/59/super-duper-death-ray?utm_source=discordhttps://scryfall.com/card/iko/117/flame-spillWe also add another gremlin to the pantheon in Blisterspit Gremlinhttps://scryfall.com/search?as=grid&order=name&q=type%3AgremlinHard not to love the overall Sharknado theme in the set, though many are concerned about the overall high power level in the set.  This is highlighted by the new Companion mechanic. One has been pre-banned (Lutri, the Spellchaser) as being felt as an auto-included card #101 in commander.  Zvi Moshowitz had a rather strong opinion on the set in his review for Cool Stuff Inc.https://www.coolstuffinc.com/a/zvimowshowitz-04152020-a-comprehensive-review-of-ikoria-lair-of-behemoths

OMG! A guest has returned! Bennie Smith! You probably know his as the Commander expert and you can find his weekly articles about Commander at Star City Games (archive of his articles).

This week is all about the previews and rapidly approaching pre-releases for Theros Beyond Death. Bennie is excited, Tom is scared of indestructible monsters. Tom also is in love with the noble hippocamp, his favorite Horse Fish.
