Welcome to the fifth installment of the Serious Vintage Podcast, hosted by Nat Moes (@GrandpaBelcher on Twitter), Geoff Moes (@ThallidTosser on Twitter), and Josh Chapple (@joshchapple on Twitter). This week we are joined by Abe “Katzby” Corson (@AbeCorson on Twitter). We discussed the physical reprints coming in Modern Masters next June, and the digital reprints coming to Magic Online (MTGO) in the form of Power 9 in the Online Cube. Then we talked to Abe about judging in Vintage, and learned a little about the history of the format in the process. Finally we wrapped everything up in a flaky crust and talked about #ManyInsanePies for the holiday season.

Here’s the timestamped table of contents for your listening ease and enjoyment:
00:27 – Everyone’s Excited for Modern Masters
12:38 – Powering up MTGO
15:22 – A Life of Vintage and Judging
47:36 – Serious Eating: #ManyInsanePies
57:01 – Outro

Thanks for listening everyone. One thing you won't hear is any talk about Grixis vs. MUD.

I really wish that you had asked Abe about bears, bear fighting, and defending players against bears.

There's... always next time?

During a player meeting at Blue Bell, a while ago, Abe asked if anyone had any questions.  ForcetheWill asked him if he was capable of defending us against bears.  Abe ignored the question and kept moving on.

At SCG Edison, Abe was judging when Brian Paskoff, a level two judge, came up to him, freaked out, and told him that there was a bear, trapped in one of the bathrooms.  Abe lost it, seemed terrified, and then saw a bunch of Vintage players laughing in a corner.

Bears...  They're godless killing machines.

Good catch! I think Jaco controls the EC iTunes account, so we'll poke him to see about getting the latest episodes added.

Thanks!
