The Vorthos Cast – Details, episodes & analysis

This week we're joined by the #1 Fan of Jace Beleren, Radley! He's here to talk to us about the enigmatic wielder of mysteries, including delving into some of his current motivations in the story and some larger themes that surround one of Magic's longest running characters. If you don't follow Radley online, you can find him at @SpaceBeleren on Twitter, or follow his Vorthos blog at wielderofmysteries.tumblr.com. Radley's extensive knowledge of Jace means you'll see more of him on the podcast in the future as the narrative moves towards a showdown with the iconic blue planeswalker.

Duskmourn is one giant, flavorful homage to horror movies of the modern age.

The story of The Brothers' War echoes through time as the past confronts the present and the present slips back into the past. This week we're covering the present day stories by Reinhardt Suarez.

We sent a message out through the galaxy and our psionic trail has lead Ethan Fleischer, designer for Magic: the Gathering and long-time fan of Warhammer 40k, to our podcast. But we're not hear to discuss power-levels, color identity, or card designs. We need to take in all the lore possible to learn about the world of Warhammer, before the Tyranids absorb our biomass.

It's time for the traditional Flavor Gems episode! This time we're going over our favorite gems from Dominaria United, a set with so many legends that we couldn't possibly cover them all, so we have to do our best to get as many delicious gems as we could into one episode.
