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

Okay, so today I'm telling one of my favorite stories. I'm going to talk about split cards.

Now, I must preface this by saying, one of the things about doing this podcast for so long,

Instead of having one card, you have two cards on it.

And then you can cast either card. I'm going to talk

showed up a bunch of times. Okay, so let's go back to the very beginning of split cards,

which is unglued. So unglued had a card in it called BFM, Big Furry Monster. And it was a card so big,

9999 that it had to go into two cards.
