I'm pulling out of my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time another drive to work.

Okay. So today, I recorded these podcasts way ahead. So this morning was the first previews for unstable.

Yay! So today, I did a podcast before where I talked about the hardest thing about my job

is having information that I can't share. But one of the coolest things about my job

is sharing information. It's finally telling people stuff. So today's podcast is all about

sort of the joy of finally getting

to tell people things. And I'm going to walk you through. So what happens on the day of preview

days and stuff. So like, for example, okay, so today, as we're recording this, I actually

wrote a preview article before preview week, or I'm sorry, I wrote a, I started my design story before preview week because I had a lot of story to tell.

So my first unstable preview column or design story column wasn't a preview column. But my second one was all about contraptions.

So I walked people through how contraptions worked worked and I talked about how they got designed.

Um, and so the fun part is today, I got to see the reaction to contraptions, as well as numerous other cards.

Part of previews is we start showing people stuff. And so one of the cool things is once you show your stuff, then people start responding to it.

And there's a whole bunch of different ways I get to experience it.

In some ways, the days we release information is kind of, you know, my, it's kind of like a Christmas morning.

It's just, it's so exciting and fun to unwrap everything or watch

everybody else unwrap everything, I guess. I guess it's kind of like when you're a parent

and you spend all this time buying the presents for your kids and then it's really, really fun

to watch your kids open the presents and get really excited by the presents. I guess that's the

better parallel. So one of the things today that was fun is this last weekend on Friday, we did this little

promotional thing where we sent, we took a contraption, chopped it up into nine pieces,

and then mailed it off to different magic media people.
