Magic Players Keep Complaining. Magic Keeps Breaking Records.

[upbeat music] Hello everyone and welcome to episode 598 of the MTG Goldfish Podcast.

I'm Seth, probably better known as Seth Frahtolive, and we have the full crew here this week, kicking things off with the owner of MTG Goldfish, Richard.

How are you this fine Monday, Richard?

Good morning, Seth.

Happy Monday.

A fine Monday to y'all.

And we also have another co-host in Crim.

Good morning, Crim.

How you doing today? Good morning.

Uh, I'm pretty excited, I guess.

Uh, we're, we're gonna, we're gonna talk about something, uh, maybe, if we can get to it in time.

So we'll, we'll...

And if we get to it, I'll be very excited.

Well, we'll get to your Hobbit card, Crim.

We'll get to your Hobbit card.

Yes.

Hobbit cards.

Just give me a few minutes.

[laughs] So today for the podcast, we got a couple of big topics.

So first, Wizards, Hasbro posted their quarterly earnings, and oh my God, uh, are they making a lot of money.

So we wanna talk a little bit about that.

We're wondering if Magic's becoming a luxury hobby based on some stuff that Wizards had said.

There might be maybe speculation about a WoW set in the future we want to talk about.

And then of course- Ah.

[laughs] ... we're still in Hobbit spoilers.

There are a bunch of sweet cards that we can talk about, so that's the overview for today.
