The Ink Table Podcast Episode 1: "Origins of a Quest"
Show opening
Host introduction, quick chat
Quick introduction of ourselves and the podcast.
What makes our podcast different?
(ex. We aren’t another group dedicated to deciphering what the current meta is. We gather around the ‘table’ to discuss our love of the game. The amazing art, the story the cards tell, and the unique/interesting decks that are both fun to build and play.)
Thoughts on Shimmering Skies
Overall what was the big takeaways from this past set
What changes did we see in the meta
(The end of Ruby/Amythest?)
What was your “bring it to the table” card(s)
Like the one dish that your favorite relative always brings to the family get-togethers.

Disney Trivia
I will ask 5 Disney questions. You will get one point for a correct answer. If you answer incorrectly the other person has a chance to steal that point. At the end of the 5 questions we will tally the points and declare a winner. We will keep track of who wins by show.
