  • Punt Pals Episode 9: "Izzet Is Dead, Long Live Izzet (It's Exquizzet)" (Featuring AllTradesMediaLLC)
    The Punt Pals are present to precede over the death of the Parun, Niv-Mizzet. Izzet is dead, long live Izzet.
    Izzet really what the episode is about? Yes.
    In this red and blue episode the Pals are joined by their editor and sponsor Ryan as they explore the rise and fall (and possible rise again?) of Izzet in commander and cEDH. Is this color pairing in its (River) swan song? Or are our takes just mental missteps?
    From 2x Dressdowns in our decklists to Josh's lack of object permanence, you will laugh, you will cry, you will cowboy with us as we wish Stella Lee was spoiled by the time this episode was recorded!
