Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome back to the show! Today we look ahead to the future of Magic after Maro mentioned that after the Phyrexians Magic will be changing in some ways "forever". The hosts wonder what that could be and build off of some threads [https://twitter.com/BibliovoreOrc/status/1613623381320138752] already out there (and a prof video [https://twitter.com/TolarianCollege/status/1613226770383405057])

Again we would like to state that Black Lives Matter [https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/]

We also are proud to have partnered with Grinding Coffee Co [https://twitter.com/grindincoffeeco] a black, LGBT+ affiliated and owned, coffee business that is aimed at providing coffee to gamers.
