Tuesday, May 23, 2023 • Duration 01:24:34

THIS EPISODE IS A PART OF TBPN's CELEBRATION OF 30 YEARS OF MAGIC: THE GATHERING (1993-2023)

On this Rare Slot, Rands is joined by Magic: The Gathering historian, eclectic cardboard collector and trained pressman—Ryan W. Rooks—to discuss a variety of Magic: The Gathering cards that should not have ever existed. Thats right these cards were either made in error, or never intended to reach the public's hands.
