0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the ETH RETCAST where we're all about commander, data, and dad jokes.
0:16.1	I'm Joey Shulton. I'm joined by my fantastic co-host. He plays Magic the Gathering for the fantasy escapism, so he's really happy to see stuff
0:24.2	like the new card called Rent is Due.
0:27.1	It's Matt Morgan.
0:28.6	So a clumsy paleontologist walked onto the stage with the dinosaur skull, and what happened
0:33.7	next is absolutely jaw-dropping.
0:38.9	Oh, no. Oh, no.
0:40.8	I told you it was clumsy.
0:43.4	I didn't fumble that joke, did I?
0:45.4	I didn't.
0:46.2	No, Matt, there's no bones about it.
0:47.9	That's one of the best jokes that you've told here.
0:51.2	That's what I want to hear.
0:53.1	Oh, it's very, all right, Matt, it's the two of us on this show. What are we talking about in this episode, man? So we just got done playing at MagicCon, Atlanta. It was a fantastic weekend. I got enough games and I actually kind of got to feel like I participated. But every now and then we see some random house rolls. And we wanted to kind of follow up about that and see if there are any house rules that cropped up for you at the, you know, playing games at this weekend or just kind of weird house rules that we kind of hear prop it up every now and then.

1:36.9	there are some wild ones out there they go further off the rails than an ather drift
1:42.7	vehicle card sure yeah yeah precisely so we want to kind of cast a wide net here and go over some house rules that we think are pretty chill, some stuff that we do enjoy when we see it that we're, you know, we're kind of game for that. And then also some ones that we're like, okay, let's actually try and unpack what's really going on here. So house rules as a topic, Matt, maybe we start easy.
2:03.2	Here we are.
2:03.4	Maybe we start with one that's a little bit chill compared to some of the wilder ones that we're going to get to later on to the episode.
2:08.4	So what's an easy house rule that we think we should start with here?
