Brainstorm Brewery turns seventy-five this week and shows no signs of pumping the brakes. You shouldn’t pump your brakes anyway—most cars these days have ABS, and you’re not doing anyone any good. This episode is a back-to-basics, no-nonsense cast that is short on dilly-dallying and long on both values and hyphens. With a few brews—both of the alcohol and deck variety—a fan letter, some discussion about what to do with upcoming product, and some killer Picks of the Week, there’s more value here than you can haul off in a cloth bag with a dollar sign on the side. Who doesn’t know the name of his own commander? Who suggested that it was reasonable to cut card-draw from an aggro deck? Who watched too much Jeopardy this week because his Pick of the Week comes in question form? You’ll find out the answer to all these questions and more. Sit back, pour your favorite brew, and kick your feet up because you’re about to get both barrels with this installment of your favorite finance podcast that will have you asking, “What do you cut from Merfolk to make room for True-Name Nemesis?” Join us for Brainstorm Brewery.
