In this episode I’m talking to Chris Morris-Lent, better known in Seattle as CML. CML is a writer, journalist, Magic player, SCG Open Champion, Pro Tour competitor and author of the new book, A Brief History of Magic Cards.

CML has a refreshingly subversive perspective and style of writing. He’s written articles for Gawker, The Daily Dot, Kotaku and Seattle Weekly.

CML’s new book, A Brief History of Magic Cards was fully funded through Kickstarter and chronicles the journey of Magic: The Gathering, Wizards of the Coast and his own experiences playing the game.

CML’s writing is interesting in that he takes a different perspective. He’s not afraid to get past the peachy rosy side of Magic coverage and dig through all the skeletons in the closet to find something different.

We dive into the possible future of Magic and where Hasbro is taking premier play.

Without further ado, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Chris Morris-Lent.
