I'm pulling on my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for their drive to work.

Okay, so yesterday, my time, Brian David Marshall announced that he was retiring from coverage.

So I thought I would do a whole podcast on Brian David Marshall. So some of you know exactly who I'm talking about.

Some of you have no idea who I'm talking about.

So part of my goal today is to explain who Brian is, what impact he's had on magic,

and talk a little bit about, you know, just all the many different ways he's impacted magic.

Now I should stress that Brian's not dying or anything.

He's just stopping doing coverage.

I'm sure we will see more of Brian.

He will continue to do magic related to things.

I don't think we're going to get rid of him from being part of magic.

But he is moving on from coverage.

So that is what prompted today.

So for those that do not know who Brian is, he right now is the magic historian.

He's had a role for many years where it's his job to sort of mark history at the Hall of Fame

induction.

He always leads a Hall of Fame induction.

Usually there's interviews with people talking about people being inducted.

And he does a lot with sort of helping retain the history of magic. As a fellow magic historian, I have great appreciation of that.

The other thing is, obviously, he does a lot of coverage. If you ever watch the Pro Tour, not the Mythic Championship,

you'll see him there.

He's been a staple for a long, long time.
