I'm not pulling out of my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for another drive to work.

Coronavirus edition. Okay, so I've been doing fun interviews while I've been stuck at home,

and I've dug into the path to find somebody that worked on magic a while ago. So Brian Schneider,

say hello. Hello, everybody. Um, so, uh, let me ask you the question I ask everybody when we start, which is, how did you get into magic?

Yeah, I got into magic during a revised.

My friends in high school, my girlfriend actually wanted to play.

And so we got some decks to play with our friends, and that's how I got into it.

Okay, and so that's back and revised. Did you play continually up till Wizards, or did you have

a stopgap or something? I played from 1995 to 1998, and then the year before I joined Wizards,

I actually had started to stop playing and was

pretty much on the brink of becoming a last player which I didn't really mention when I worked there

so how did you get to Wizards what brought you to Wizards of the Coast yeah I ended up being

a prominent deck builder in the 90s in the early days of magic.

And one of my teammates, Randy Duler, got the job at Wizards, I think a year or two before me.

And so he went into R&D on the development side and asked me if I was interested.

So it was really just fortuitous.

Okay. Randy got a lot of people in.

Definitely a lot of stories.

Randy got me.

Okay, so you came to Wizards.

So what is the first thing you did when you came to Wizards?

I ran the Future, Future League.
