| 0:00.0 | I'm pulling away from the curb. We all know what that means. It's time for another drive to work. |
| 0:05.8 | And I dropped my daughter off at school today. Okay, so we are talking about Tempest. So this is the fourth, and I think the final podcast, me talking about Tempest cards. |
| 0:16.7 | So I talked about white, blue, black, red, and green. So it means we're time to talk about multicolor. |
| 0:23.6 | So I'm going to start with a card called Dracoplasm. |
