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

Okay. Well, it turns out that Matt Kavada has had having car problems and needed to take his car into the shop.

So we all know what that means? Carpool with Matt Kavada. Okay, so I'm going to go pick up Matt, and what I've done is I've chosen a topic that I thought would be a good one for mean Matt to discuss.

So last time I had Matt, I drove Matt to work, we talked about flavor text.

But this time, we're going to talk about names.

Now, for those to don't remember,

Matt has actually worked at Wizards twice.

The first time I worked at Wizards,

he was on the creative team in charge of names and flavor text.

Now he's in charge of a look and feel of magic packaging.

Maybe we want to do a podcast and talk about that.

But today, talk about his old job.

Now, the interesting thing is I, back in the day,

was also very involved in names and flavor text.

In fact, for both unglued, unhinged, and Odyssey,

I was in charge of the flavor text,

and the names and the flavor text.

So when we talk names today,

both Matt and I have had some experience naming things.

Also, one of the things that we'll talk about today is that in design sometimes, I will

make honest, attempted names.

We'll talk about that when I pick them up.
