I'm not pulling on my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for another drive to work, coronavirus edition.

So I've been using my time at home to talk to people, past and present, about making magic sets.

So today I have Randy Bueller, and we're going to talk about the making of the set Odyssey.

Hey, Randy.

Hello.

So this is way, Odyssey's long, long ago.

So let's talk, so was Odyssey your first lead, I think?

It was a little week.

It was my first big set lead.

Okay.

I had, I was like a co-lead on Plane Shift, and I'm pretty sure I led Apocalypse.

Okay.

I got pretty quickly up into, like, the deaf team.

Like, I was representing the deaf team out to the rest of Wizards for the invasion

block.

So first big set week.

Okay, so what is your earliest memory of Odyssey?

I mean, for me, it's a graveyard set.

That was the pitch, right? Honestly, it's you, set that was the pitch right i honestly it's you and i remember you i don't know
