S001 – Star Wars: The Force Awakens – Commanderin’ MTG Podcast

star-wars-the-force-awakens-hd-wallpaper-300In this episode, Whase Boothi (Sean) and Delph Fibre (Phil) spoil the heck out of the new Star Wars movie, Star Wars: The Force Awakens – go watch the movie before listening to this.

Here are the Magic notes:

Now, go watch the movie before listening to this show.
