    Episode 4: Ethan and The Scorpion God

    Introducing our first neighbor Ethan and his pet deck The Scorpion God. This episode is a little longer than normal in order to introduce Ethan’s deck and Ethan himself. (Side note: With the holidays, Jacob getting Covid, and Steven going from Silverquil ((English)) teacher to now following in Quintorius’s footsteps and becoming a Lorehold ((History)) teacher, we at WYBMCommander apologize for the delay!

    Episode 3: Quintorious, Steven's Spirit Animal

    ***A quick note to apologize for the audio quality. Due to health concerns, we had to record virtually so the mic quality wasn't always the best!*** In this episode, Jacob and Steven discuss Steven's very first Commander: Quintorious, the Field Historian. The guys talk about why Steven chose "Quincy" in the first place, the simple How-to-Win (HTW) in the deck, the cards that help Quintorious be the baddest historian at Strixhaven, the various "fun" cards, and Jacob's thoughts on how it could be streamlined by a veteran player. A big shoutout to @nsheppardmedia for the parody music and @nemissas_northwood_arts for the awesome logo!

Included is a discussion on some fun cards added from Crimson Vow and other shenanigans! Special shoutout to @nsheppardmedia on Instagram for the opening song and @nemissasnorthwoodsarts for the logo!

    Jacob and Steven talk about their first brew together: Killian, Ink Duelist.

Also it is a 2-1 episode since we had Killian made and had some games under our belt we did is a one shot episode. Special shout to Nate Sheppard (@nsheppardmedia) for the parody of Won't You Be My Neighbor! from Mr. Rodgers! Also, be patient with us! We are learning how to record and edit the podcast over a bit of time, we will get better as we go!
