Here at My Mythical Meta, we talk about gaming with friends and strangers, resolving conflicts, and keeping game nights fun, interesting, and RECURRING. Our game of choice is Magic: the Gathering, but our hope is that what we share is relevant for board game players, rpg groups, and maybe even your poker night.
Travis, Derek, Randy, and Benjamin have been playing Magic together since 2014, and every game day is fresh and exciting. With the power of FRIENDSHIP, the game will go on.

This podcast is the best gaming podcast I have ever listened to but I also get to watch it happen because I know these guys really well in fact Derek is my uncle I love seeing them progress!!
The Metapods Rock!
I love listening to these guys! Four guys talking about gaming, but actually talking about the interpersonal dynamics of being good friends. It’s refreshing to listen to. Keep it up!
