A Dig Through Time Podcast

A Dig Through Time Podcast

A Dig Through Time is a Magic History Podcast that talks about everything you might not know about your favorite game. We believe that there’s more to Magic than just playing the game; as a Magic player you are a participant in its community and culture. However, with the world’s longest running history as far as gaming culture goes, Magic has a lot that’s left underexplained and lost to time. That’s where we come in. We’re here to explain all of the references, the in-jokes, the little nuggets of information that you won’t pick up on just by reading the cards. From major events to other community personalities and sweeping changes to the games rules, layout, or function, we’re here to guide you through the history of it all. Join us on our next Dig through Time. read less

We're also examining the meta-topic of the discussion in general, and how discourse over answering that question has changed over the years; "What is Tempo?" --- Special thanks to the boys at Crew3 podcast and at Fireside Magic for their help on the intro. Ruckman, Tyler, Ricky, Ben, Jessi, and Chris in order of appearance. Y'all real ones.
