028: Bananas—Reviewing every banana-related card in Magic: the Gathering

July 27th, 2023

Clock Spinning is going bananas this week by talking about—you guessed it—bananas! In this episode we rate, review, and ban-analyze every card in Magic that has bananas in the art, flavor text, and even oracle text. We had an ape-solute blast putting this one together, and we hope you enjoy it too!

You can see every card from the episode here.
