Ross is joined by the one and only Brian David-Marshall to discuss the history and fandom of Magic: the Gathering! The world's first trading card game, Magic has had a profound influence on gaming and popular culture, and BDM has had a profound influence on Magic. They also talk holiday cookie recipes, life imitating art, and the early history of online social networking.

FYI: This is part of an ongoing series of interviews I'm doing for a project, so if you are interested in hearing any more of these, let me know!
