  • Truly fantastic even if they don’t give Ral respect

    Honestly this podcast slaps so hard. This is one of two weekly podcasts that make me excited that Friday is coming. Great pacing, great humor, not stuck up or judgy or full of themselves. Feels like a couple of your buddies in your living room shooting the breeze in a super informed and fun way. cEDH is better because yall are upset of it. Good stuff. -Holden_Prio
