June 21, 2025 Episode 156: A (cPDH) League of Their Own!
In this episode, we dive into a new community initiative starting in Iowa: the Wanderer’s PDH League. Ginger, one of the organizers, shares his background with MTG and other card games before discussing how he fell in love with PDH and founded the ongoing event. In its pilot year, the Wanderer’s League currently has three participating stores (with more coming on board soon!) and boasts a $1,000 prize pool. While the league aims to be widely available across the country in 2026, you can get your local gaming group involved this year by contacting [email protected]. We look forward to seeing you in a pod soon, this year or next!
