As a person who grew up in Madison, hearing the Wisconsin State Journal called a "hometown newspaper" was... weird. I've since lived in multiple cities and so far the Wisconsin State Journal was the only local paper I would consider to be worthy of the word newspaper. The others have been glorified newsletters padded with coupons. Madison has also been the biggest and most politically active city I've lived in, which most likely explains this.
That's cool hearing about someone else who funded part of their wedding with Magic cards. I bought my wife's wedding ring with cash garnered from the sale of Magic cards one of which was also a beta Black Lotus.
Congrats John! Since your comics & blog announcing you being on here, I have been waiting for the episode. Good job!
One blue mana: sacrifice Black Lotus to search your deck for a wedding gown and put it directly into the ceremony. That's awesome! :D
Great episode! Was fun playing Munchkin with you that one Geek.kon I think in 2010. Was that the one game you won?

What a charming gent.
For a moment i thought it was Joe Pesci.
Joe Pesci GOOD, or Joe Pesci BAD? :-)
More importantly, when did you stop looking like Jeff Goldblum?
