April 05, 2024 Episode 94: Brewin' 'n Testin' 'n Pauper

March 29, 2024 Episode 93: 4x4 Top Deck Matters w/ Blake the Battlefrog!
This week, Blake joins us in the studio to dive into another patron-chosen, patent-pending 4x4 PDH deckbuilding episode! We are going to tackle the "top deck matters" strategy! Do we have enough pieces at common or even in the command zone to make an MTG archetype like this viable?

March 15, 2024 Episode 91: Finalizing the 2CUDS Conversation!
This week, we wrap up our 2CUDS Series of episodes by looking back at all the sets from original Ravnica up to Conspiracy. How many commanders from this era of Magic: the Gathering have helped to shape the Pauper Commander format into what it is now, and which sets were just, well... duds? And what, if anything, does this all have to do with skeletons??

March 08, 2024 Episode 90: The Pals 6: Fallout and other Rad stuff!
How often does The PDH Pod, The PDH Pals, and a set review converge? Not often enough! Thankfully, this sixth return of the Pals synched perfectly with our Fallout set review! How many good Pauper Commanders did we get from this mtg commander-precon-only set? The Pals chose seven. Let's see if Brad, Dave, and Liam can come close to that.

March 01, 2024 Episode 89: 4x4 Lands Matter w/ Lee!
We are back with another 3x3 deckbuilding episode, but +1! Lands Matter is a very popular archetype across many Magic: The Gathering formats, so it was only right that we... dig... deep into this strategy. We've invited noted Toggo brewer, Lee, onto the show to walk us through some of the key points for that rock-flinging, lands-mattering commander as well as our own! Teaser: only most of the Pauper commander are based in green.

February 23, 2024 Episode 88: Continuing the 2CUDS Conversation
Well, we've turned a simple listener question into a multi-episode series! This week we sit down to talk about the two-color-uncommons-signpost creatures from Throne of Eldraine all the way back to Core Set 2015! How do some of these potential Pauper commanders hold up to FIRE design and current Magic: The Gathering power creep?

February 16, 2024 Episode 87: Love is in the air...
Due to the lovely loving holiday, we're a co-host short this week, but Dave and Brad (mostly Dave) fill you in on all the hot goss from around the Magic: The Gathering world and fandom in regard to who's in love with who and who ain't being true. Listen in as we run down some of those most popular and sought after MTG relationships. There may even be a few Pauper Commander lovers getting some attention.

This week, the crew returns with another fan-favorite 3x3. but with a twist -- we let our patrons choose the commanders this time! Well, the era from which our commanders must originate. How do you build around cards with such limited mechanics? What would you build from back in the day...?
