Y'all, I have a whole lot of nerdy projects I'm working on at any given time. I like you guys, and you seem to like to me. So I thought I would share another piece of my gaming content with you. About five years ago, me and my longtime friend DeQuan "PowrDragn" Watson had an idea for a podcast about marginalized people and how our gaming experience is different.
That podcast, Color of Magic, has become one of the most important things that I do. A few years ago we were honored as one of the industry's best podcast at the Magic Content Creator Awards, which we also got to host.
We weren't sure anybody wanted to hear our takes on the industry and the place we've managed to carve out in it. As I'm sure you're aware, there are thousands of podcasts launched annually. The overwhelming majority don't make episode three. I can promise you, it's not as easy as the Joe Rogans and Alex Coopers of the world make it look.
We've changed so many things, some our own idea. Others were necessitated by technological issues. But the end product is something we're proud of, and a growing audience agrees. So, I'm inviting my App Trigger family to join this party.
The latest episode is a great place to start, as we talk about Magic The Gathering's Final Fantasy set and how it made Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast $200 million in one day. The initial numbers coming in indicated it would be huge, but this response blew us away.
