    HSM 199: Fed Up With Infinites, Dismiss into Salt, and Slaying Spires

    04/16/2026 | 1h 19 mins.
    Welcome to Episode 199!

    This week, a story where a new player repeatedly encounters infinite combos, a dreamy pod with a whiny baby is dismissed forever, and the freedom of letting go of old things and being your true self inspired by... Tergrid?

    Also, Tony and Mike pitch Sam on Slay the Spire 2, and we might be cringe but we are free.

    Stay Salty!

    Sam, Mike, & Tony

    Welcome to Episode 198!

    This week, when your favorite podcast hosts consistently misunderstand one of your favorite cards, the fall out of breaking a deal and losing trust in your playgroup, and a bad match up with too much mill leads to some intense salt.

    Also, Sam gets a new fridge and talks about it a lot.

    Stay Salty!

    HSM 197: Salt in Upkeep, Fifteen Board Wipes, and the Balatro Wagon

    04/02/2026 | 1h 22 mins.
    Welcome to Episode 197!

    Today, a player in a friendly tournament keeps missing triggers which leads to tension in the group, a poorly built spite deck confuses a playgroup, and the headache of trying to track down a gift exchange deck that was never sent.

    Also Sam is off the Balatro wagon and on the Balatro bandwagon. (or is it the other way around?)

    Stay Salty!

    03/26/2026 | 1h 25 mins.
    Welcome to Episode 196!

    Today, when your first cEDH game is against two tipsy salty boys, an opponent that fills their deck with frustrating Un-Set cards, and a salty revenge against a dismissive pirate.

    Also we talk about Dingus Con and we break down a salty cEDH deal between Mike and Tony.

    Stay Salty!

    Sam, Mike, & Tony

    (also sorry if Mike's audio is a little off in the intro of this one!)

    HSM 195: Countering Harmonize, Class Dismissed, and Stabbing CitiBikes

    03/19/2026 | 1h 24 mins.
    Welcome to Episode 195!

    Today, when an opponent won't stop backseat driving your partner's deck (and they counter your harmonize), an opponent spreads a bit too much salty sass and takes you to class, and the heavy burden of being your playgroup's "rules person".

    Tony confronts an armed citizen, and Mike mansplains mansplaining to Sam.

    Stay Salty!
