2023 will forever be remembered as the year Wizards censored the Pinkertons. Or wait, did the Pinkertons take down the MTG Ambassador Program? There were so many controversies these past 365 days that it’s hard to keep them straight! Well don’t worry, we’re going to cover all of it!

This episode Jimmy, JLK and Rachel convene to break down the entire year of highlights, missteps, and controversies in the MTG community. With MagicCons, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, loads of Secret Lairs and more, there’s a ton to talk about. So strap in, everyone, because it’s time for the 2023 year in review!
