Episode 16: LC Hype

Ben, Brad, Billy, Nick, and Jay thee Stream God have a round table and give a guide on how to have fun at LC with the various games and activities. Brad (mostly) keeps a handle on the show notes, Nick offers useful and pertinent information, Ben pipes in with his measured takes, Jay explains the nuances of stream wizardry, and Billy cries a bunch. There's a lot of actually useful information peppered in here, none of which is structured in a listenable or practical way. the stream is gonna fuckin' rip: https://www.twitch.tv/duresscrew our shit: https://linktr.ee/duresscrew talk shit in our voicemailbox: https://www.speakpipe.com/DuressCrew

Episode 15: Tribe with Travis Schneider

The only thing Brad and Billy know about About Face is about how pretty our faces are. Luckily for you, dear listener, Travis Schneider has come to indoctrinate us into the Tribe. Hailing from Atlanta, Travis has seen success with a deck he calls the cousin of Flippi. Sit for a spell, let us pour you a glass of sweet tea, and enjoy. check out Shared Discovery: https://open.spotify.com/show/5iAQ17ETQOk4uJ04uFLFQg our shit: https://linktr.ee/duresscrew leave us a shitty voicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/DuressCrew Need a place to stay for Lobstercon? https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1733931656182&key=GRP&guestreslink2=true&app=resvlink

Episode 13: RB Goblins with Ian Adams (DxC Winter Champ)

Somebody forgot to tell the Red Line Treefolk that Red was dead and Black was bad, so Ian committed a major faux pas and won our tournament with RB Goblins. Brad and Billy have a pleasant chitchat with Ian about PM vibes, crushing cleverboys with an aggro deck, and being good stewards of your local scene. TREEFOLK RISE UP!

Episode 12: Low Sodium Tournament Prep with Jay McCowan

Jay McCowan leads conspicuous underperformers Billy and Brad on a self-help journey to calibrate our behaviors with our competitive or social goals in mind. Using his experiences from the decidedly un-chill RCQ mosh pit, Jay has a message for the salties, the sweaties, and the stinkers on how to stay chill, or how to recognize when you don't deserve to. our shit: https://linktr.ee/duresscrew talk shit in our voicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/duresscrew
