Last week was full of surprises as Magic announced their "Pride Across the Multiverse" Secret Lair! Coming with this wonderful release was also a short story written by none other than the amazing Alison Lührs, and we have her on for the very first time to talk all things Huatli and Saheeli, writing queer Magic stories, fandom, our favorite cursed ships, and... Robert Pattinson?

This is our first of (maybe) three episodes exploring the flavor gems of Modern Horizons 3! Modern Horizons sets have always been full of the deepest lore references and a place for old characters to get new cards. This time around is no different, and we've dedicated an entire episode just to legends from the past returning or premiering in this set!

297 - Modern Horizons 3 Flavor Gems: Returning Legends

Modern Horizons 3 previews are underway, and as with previous Modern Horizons sets there are so many deep lore references and stories to be told! This week we're tackling the five transforming planeswalker cards from the set and what we know about these characters and how their sparks ignited.

Modern Horizons 3 Preview - Ajani Fells the Godsire

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!

With the end of Outlaws of Thunder Junction, we also finished the first story arc since the end of March of the Machine! We've got Roy Graham, Story Lead at Wizards of the Coast for Magic, on the podcast this week to talk about leading the story through the omenpaths and into a new era, including creating and growing Kellan, setting up the BIG reveal, and what we can expect going forward.
