Thank you for joining us for a Very Special Episode™, in which we take a trip for a Store Showdown! This is a shorter episode, and the sound quality is a little less than optimal (I apologize... the nice studio setup made me forget how to edit gonzo-style recording). We will be back in the studio for the next one.

Episode 4 of the SWU Harvest Podcast is here! Join the crew as they talk about a recently spoiled round of cards for the new Star Wars: Unlimited set "Shadows of the Galaxy". Then, the team talks Store Showdowns, and generally how to prepare for events.
