Brainstorm Brewery #95 – A New Format

Based on some feedback, the gang has decided to reformat the show to make it conform to the consensus from the community. The cast has been streamlined and will follow a new, shorter format from now on. It is all the finance news you want in under five minutes, without all the filler.

What were the biggest winners and losers on MTGStocks?
Pick of the Week finishes in record time.
What cards are good pickups right now?
Outro

Umm…

The cast continues in the spirit of April Fools’ Day and invites Elliot Scott (@hackworth) on to talk about “casual” finance, Commander, speculation about the new Duel Decks, and more. It’s an extra-long After Hours installment that will have you saying, “I’m glad they put the podcast at the end so I can turn it off after five minutes.” Whose Pick of the Week costs more than a yearly subscription to StarCityGames Premium? Who is late to cast and doesn’t have the benefit of a good excuse? Who might be right after all about the plane where the fall set will take place? Find out all this and more on an extra-long After Hours!
