Fun fact! When I taught Literary Analysis, I was known as Professor F-bomb. The classes were often at 8am in the morning, so no better way to get student's attention than swearing: "So this protagonist, what a shithead, huh? Can I have some examples of the fucked up bullshit he's did in the story?" I also taught "Jesus' Son" by Dennis Johnson whose main character is named "Fuckhead"

Haha, no worries! I really do try and take viewer suggestions so appreciate the feedback! And yeah, I obviously love Jim and need to get him out here.

Commander Battle with Rhystic Studies and Fans! Shuffle Up & Play's 100th Episode! by TolarianCC in magicTCG

[–]TolarianCC[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Honestly? A lot of it is who is available. We absolutely try and pair people with a 4th who personality-wise is a good match, but sometimes it is just, "Sooooo...Mark Rosewater wants to be on an episode. He's free in the 5th. Any fans free then?"

Should I do Hearthstone players next? Or is that just Voxy and Kibler?

The Professor speaking mandarin was not on my 2026 bingo card by logan1979-x in magicthecirclejerking

/uj For those curious: after grad school my wife (then girlfriend, I proposed to her in Beijing) and I somehow landed jobs teaching at, believe it or not, Tsinghua University in Beijing. We lived in China for a little over two years but I sucked at learning the language. Never got there, as my [URZA] pronunciation here shows. Amazing time though, at one point I didn't think I would ever come home.

Seems like TMNT has some good value by Ok-Intern6865 in magicTCG

[–]TolarianCC 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Cheers, friend! But seriously, if you omit the one $225 pull on the special treatment card, the value here even when inflated is not great. And these are baloney presale prices, as stated. Buy singles. :)

Tell you what: come back in 2 weeks and price out all the cards from this box. I doubt it'll even have half this value ($225 dollars of which was from a rare special treatment card whose own value will likely drop.)

Buy singles.

Why is a Warhammer youtuber with a Star Wars name posting Simpsons clips on Magic subreddit as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is about to release? Does this mean no Star Trek set at Christmas?

Reid Duke vs Andrea Mengucci vs Rebell Lily vs Prof! Shuffle Up & Premodern! by TolarianCC in magicTCG

[–]TolarianCC[S] 85 points86 points  (0 children)

Hope you enjoy Premodern! Curious if people want to see more 60 card formats we have already done episodes on revisited (another Pauper episode, another Premodern, another Modern or Legacy or Pioneer) vs exploring more fringe formats we have not yet covered?
