The Hobbies + Happiness Podcast: A Disney Lorcana Podcast

If you've been in the realm of trading card games for any length of time, you have a familiarity with the term "Spoiler Season!" Spoiler season is like Christmas for many TCG consumers and players. For some, spoiler season is the worst time of the year...In any regard, today we wanted to talk at length about what we think of spoiler season and how it relates to the games we play and hobby we love. We've been through many a spoiler season, and we have some thoughts on what we think works, and what we don't think works. We have some thoughts on things we like, and things we don't. Come along and enjoy the spoiler season conversation!

Today, we've got a pretty interesting topic to touch on, and that is How to NOT Launch a TCG! There are a LOT of new trading card games coming to the market recently, some of them are starting off on the right foot, and some are not. We give our thoughts on what we see going on, and try to give some insight on we think you should NOT do if you want to launch one. Hope you enjoy the episode!

We've got another doozy of an episode for you all today. On todays episode, we're talking all about some current events. By now, you may be familiar with the most recent Quackalope controversy that's happened over the course of the past week or so. If you haven't, the TLDR is; a relatively large YT channel did some videos, asked for "compensation," and it didn't go down very well at all. Super precise I know, but if you listen to the episode, we do our best to hash it out and give our opinions and takes on the matter. Check the links down below for more context and information as well.

Lastly, just want to remind you all, these are all just our hot takes and opinions. We wish no ill will towards Jesse and his team, and sincerely wish the best for him and his team. We wish the situation was handled a little better, but at the end of the day, we're all human and all make mistakes. Please continue to show grace to all involved, and we will continue to try and do the same as well.

Got another good topic to discuss this week, and it's kind of a continuation of last weeks episode. In case you missed it, last week we talked a lot about the upcoming Star Wars TCG, Star Wars Unlimited. We're optimistic, but pretty hesitant, as it's coming from FFG, who doesn't have the greatest track record when it comes to Star Wars card games. In that conversation, we touched on companies, their goals, profits etc. One of the things we touched on was winning in the short term and winning in the long term. This came to mind again when watching a recent YouTube video from Linus Sebastion of Linus Tech Tips. He recently released a video saying he was stepping down from the CEO position at LTT, and was a really great video. I encourage you all to go check it out. So watching that video made us revisit this topic, so we hope you enjoy!

Well...we finally have the basic rules for Disney Lorcana. At times, it seemed liked we may never get here, but here we are! Todays episode is a return to form of sorts. Since the rules release, we have been really digging into, conversing over, and just really thinking long and hard about how we feel about the game now. The long and short of it, we think Lorcana is going to be a fantastic game, and are looking forward to where this game goes. Sit back as we go over all of our initial thoughts of the Disney Lorcana rules set!

This week, we sit down for a chat with Aislyn Hall & Aaron Shaw, designers of the card and board game, Ivion. Aislyn founded Luminary Games in 2016, and Ivion is her brainchild. We first met Aislyn and Aaron at GenCon 2021, and that was where we first heard of and learned about Ivion, and we immediately loved the game. It takes everything we love about card games and marries it with the concept of an MMO/RPG board based combat and is, well for lack of a better term awesome. We hope you enjoy our conversation, and be sure to learn more about Ivion and the team by following the links down below!

This weeks episode is getting posted a few days early, and that's because we interviewed game designer and Magic: the Gathering Pro Tour winner Justin Gary! Justin's latest game, Ascension Tactics: Inferno, is hitting Kickstarter on February 21st, so we wanted this episode to go live before the game launches. This was such an amazing conversation. We had been wanting to talk to Justin for quite a while, and we were so glad that he accepted our invitation to join us on the podcast. We talk about Justin's lengthy history in the tabletop space and industry, his experience with Magic: the Gathering, working with Richard Garfield, and or course we talk quite a bit about Ascension and Ascension Tactics.

This week, Dan & Jim go over their holiday breaks, what games they played, plans for 2023, and then talk about the main topic of the week, Power Creep! This is a great episode and we're excited to share it with you! NOTE: Unfortunately forgot to record the main microphones during recording, unfortunately we had our overhead boom mics on and recording, so this weeks audio is not as crisp as each week. Apologies!

We revisit our discussions on Organized Play in todays episode! We know we've touched on the topic before on past episodes, however those discussions have pretty much heavily revolved around Magic: the Gathering. Today we open up the discussion and discuss OP on a more broad scale, and then dive into what we're looking for and wanting from Disney Lorcana! We hope you enjoy the episode!

Todays episode features an interesting topic! Today we discuss card games and the connection between sports. We talk about the proliferation of e-sports and how that is helping to shape the card games within that space, as well as discuss the question...are cards games sports? We hope you enjoy the episode!

Another doozy of an episode this week. It feels like I say that just about every week, doesn't it? But we tend to deliver on the dooziness...don't we? In any case, we again had a great time recording this weeks episode talking all about investors in the TCG and CCG space, and giving our thoughts. We hope you enjoy the conversation! And as always, be sure to shoot us an email at [email protected], or leave us a review or a comment to let us know your thoughts!

We've got a doozy of an episode for you this week? We are talking all about one of our favorite things here at hobbies + happiness...and that is community. We really love the communities that we are a part of. Many of them have helped shaped who we are as people. Many of them have gotten us all to where we are today. Some may say, we wouldn't be where we are without our community. Well, today we ask the question...does community really matter though? Hope you enjoy the conversation.

This weeks episode is a more broad scoped topic, and applies to all card games...at least in our opinion. Today we are talking about 3 keys to successful card games. This topic originally started as a topic covering cards from a playability or collectability standpoint, but then quickly changed into this topic, as we thought we can really nail it down a bit further. We hope you enjoy!

This weeks topic we thought was kind of a meme...which it kind of is. But upon further inspection and conversation, we realized that maybe it's not? Okay, so the conversation started by checking out a meme in the Disney Lorcana HQ Discord about Lorcana being a part of the "Big 3" of card games. We looked at the meme, laughed a little bit...but then we started thinking. Check out the episode and think along with us...hear us out.

Today we talk about 2 of Jim's favorite things...card game and markets. Jim thoroughly enjoys playing with and benefiting from secondary markets, and also the economics and theories behind secondary markets. If you've been in the TCG/CCG for any length of time, you most likely have a pretty good understanding of how secondary markets work within the space. The episode seeks to dive deep into the topic, and we explore the purposes behind secondary markets, and really why they exists particularly within the card game space. We hope you enjoy!

We cannot seem to stop talking about Disney Lorcana! In today's episdode, we again had Lorcana on our minds as we went through...a thought experiment. We talk about color theory within the context of Magic: the Gathering, and talk about what each color stands for and represents in the Magic universe. Then we start talking about Lorcana and Disney characters. Since we have all of this information about what the colors represent in Magic, what if we placed Disney characters in that universe? What colors and/or color combinations would they be? We discuss...

Today's episode is a great one! Today we go through what we think is the current state of the card gaming market in general. The major goal of this episode is to try and familiarize our audience with the many great and fantastic different card games that are on the market. We realize that not all card games are for all card game players, or even tabletop players. Since we are really always in search of the best card game for us, we thought we'd introduce you all to many of them out there. So sit back, and hopefully we will introduce you to your next favorite card game!

This week, it's Jim's turn to tell you about one of his favorite commanders, Talrand, Sky Summoner! This is mono blue commander, and let's just say...it's a typical deck that Jim would love to play.

We hope you ell enjoy our first ever commander deck tech from the channel, and look forward to more episodes like this in the future! You can find the decklist at the following link on TappedOut if you want to check it out for yourself!

Today...we talk all about one of our most favorite formats in one of our most favorite games. Today's episode is all about the Commander format in Magic: the Gathering. We've talked pretty extensively in the past about Magic, but we have yet to dedicate an entire episode to the commander format. So today we do just that. We talk about why we love the format so much, and why we think it's one of the biggest formats in the largest card game. Join us as we talk about this exciting format, and stay tuned for the next few weeks, as the following couple episodes will be deck techs talking about some of our favorite commander decks! We hope you enjoy!

Today's episode is an intriguing one! We are talking about...the negatives...of being positive? It almost sounds like an oxymoron. How is it negative, when I'm trying to have a positive outlook and attitude? We'll admit...on it's face, it's doesn't sound like it makes much sense. But if you trust us, it'll make more sense when you hear our reasoning behind the topic. We hope you enjoy!

We have got a pretty interesting episode for you all today! We are talking all about resource systems in card games! We think this is a pretty fascinating topic, especially the longer and longer we are in the card game space. It seems that whenever we play a new card game, we find a slightly new variation on an old "theme." Especially when it comes to the resources utilized for the gameplay. So, that's kind of what we wanted to talk about in this episode, is all about the resource systems found in card games of today. We hope you enjoy!

In this weeks episode, we talk about a topic that quite honestly...we're surprised we really have yet to touch on. That topic is evergreen games! If you've been around tabeltop gaming for any length of time, you've more than likely heard people talk about the phrase, "Evergreen game." If you've ever thought to yourself, what are they talking about?..then stick around. We do our best to dive into the topic and give our thoughts into what those types of games are, and what we'd classify as some evergreen titles. We hope you enjoy the episode!

Welcome back after an extended break! We hope you all had an enjoyable July 4th holiday, especially if you're in the states! In any event, we are back with another great episode for you. This topic came up in a pretty interesting way (a way in which we talk about in the episode 😁), and when we started talking about the topic, we immediately stopped talking about it and said, "This will make a great podcast topic!" So here we are! We're talking all about rules sets and formats for card games, and even board games today. The conversation really started as a way to figure out how to run a good tournament for different games, instead of the (Magic typical) bring 1 deck plus a sideboard. So we went from there. We hope you enjoy the episode, and we're really interested to know your opinions!

Have you ever been playing a game and thought to yourself...when will this game just be over all ready?? I think a lot of us have been in that exact situation. It's with that thought in mind, that we talk about todays episode, "What Makes a Game(s) Exhausting." Dan and Jim go over a few thoughts and ideas that each of them have of why they think a game can be exhausting in general, and some ideas for them specifically. We hope you enjoy the episode!

It's hard to believe that we're half way through 2022! Since we're ALMOST into July (still crazy to think about 😬😬😬), we thought this was the perfect time to have a retrospective with what's going on with hobbies + happiness so far in 2022, and again to look to the future! So, with that being said, we hope you enjoy this conversation as we go over what is coming in the rest of year for hobbies + happiness!

We've got another great episode for you all today! In this weeks episode, we talk all about deck building and deck piloting. We compare and contrast both of these topics, and talk about how each of them has their own distinct place within the world of card gaming. Both are very different and distinct topics within card games, and both serve very important functions. We hope you enjoy the episode!

We've got a great episode today discussing a topic that we've wanted to touch on for quite a long time, and one that's really important to us as well. We're talking about finding your playgroup today! This is probably one of the biggest things that tabletop gamers have the most hardest thing actually doing, moreso from our experience due to the majority of us being introverts 😉. Well today we wanted to go through not only our experiences with finding some playgroups, but also giving tips on how to find yours! We hope you enjoy!

Really interesting episode for you all today! In this episode, we discuss one of our recent gameplay videos in which Jim basically just dominated Dan in a game of Here to Slay...and Jim was really the only player having much fun. If you saw the video, you know which one I'm talking about! 😂😂 While we really did have a good time, we started to have a pretty good discussion on how each of us have fun, and our different types of playstyles, so we wanted to dive deeper in that discussion on this episode. Strap in, and get ready for a great discussion!

In today's episode of the podcast, we wanted to talk about a topic we really haven't touched on yet, and that is tournament preparations! We have a few tournaments coming up for us in our local area, so we are currently starting to prepare for them, so we thought we'd start talking about the process! If you've never prepared for a tournament before, we're go through our process, as well as some tips that we think everyone should look at and consider when they prepare for tournaments themselves. Hope you enjoy!

We've got a really great episode for you all today! On this episode of the podcast, we dive into the heavily debated topic, the difference between casual gaming and competitive gaming. After bringing up this topic somewhat off handedly in Episode #45, we really started to ask more and more questions, and really dive into the topic more. Eventually, we really started to ask, can a game exist itself and just be either a casual game or a competitive game? Through talking about it, we realized that this was really a very nuanced topic, and wanted to give it the attention we thought it deserved. Hope you enjoy!

Today's topic is a doozy! If you've been into card gaming for any length of time, you most likely heard of the term netdecking. In fact, we started talking a little bit about this topic in Episode #42 when we were talking about Marvel Champions and why we enjoyed that game. We did say that we would dive deeper into the topic of netdecking, and here is that episode. If you've heard of the term netdecking, you may be familiar with its negative connotation in the world of card gaming, and we think that it is garbage 😂. In this episode we go over what netdecking is, and why we think it is a good practice to do in card gaming. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

Today's topic is one that we started in last weeks episode with Sam Smith where we began talking about the idea that not all games were made with me in mind. Last week the topic was brought up in speaking about Disney Villainous and how it was very much designed with the casual and family audience in mind, not the overly strategic thinking audience. Being the very strategic players that we are, we can tend to take the games that we play and play, analyze and try and enjoy them through that strategic mindset. We flesh out that idea and concept in this episode. We hope you enjoy!

Today we have a pretty different(ish) and very interesting conversation for you all! Today we're talking about why cards get banned in different card games? If you're not involved in the Magic: The Gathering scene, Wizards of the Coast just recently made a banned and restricted announcement. We thought this would be a really good opportunity to discuss why these types of announcements occur, and why cards get banned generally speaking. This conversation is centered around Magic, but this topic and concepts apply to just about all competitive card games. We hope you enjoy!

We are super excited for todays episode, where we sit down and have a chat with Steven Wooley from Team Covenant. Team Covenant is a local game store (LGS) that was started over 10+ years ago in Tulsa, OK by Steven and a few of his friends. Today, they are currently working on the third iteration of their local store, streaming quality tabletop gaming content on Twitch, YouTube and FaceBook, and are continuing to build a thriving and constantly growing community of like minded people. Steven and Zach are huge inspirations for what we are trying to build and achieve here at hobbies + happiness, so it was such a joy to be able to talk with him and pick his brain. We hope you enjoy the conversation.

If you haven't been in the tabletop gaming hobby or space for very long, the idea of playing board games or card games solo may seem a bit foreign to you. Honestly, for a long time, solo tabletop gaming was not extremely popular. It has, however, existed in the space for quite a long time. Today, solo board gaming is an extremely popular niche within the hobby space, and for good reason! In today's episode, we discuss our thoughts on solo tabletop and board gaming, and how the conversation gets brought up and discussed. We hope you'll join us for the discussion.

This weeks topic is essentially part 2 from last weeks episode, where we talked about should tabletop games be digital. Through the course of that discussion, we had started thinking about what are some video games that we enjoy, that we would think could turn into good board games, and what are some that have done it successfully. Join us as we look to dive further into the topic!

Today's topic is a relatively simple and straightforward question. Should all tabletop games be digital? Basically asking the question should there be a digital version of every tabletop game? As we continue to progress technologically as a society, the way we experience "games" is going to be constantly evolving. There's a lot of different ways to think about this topic, and we discuss. Hope you enjoy!

This is a topic we've been thinking about for a bit, and it wanted to bring it to you all, our amazing audience. As tabletop gamers, we often find ourselves typically gravitating towards strategic card games. We've never really thought too much about it, but the question has come up before, why do we enjoy these card games so much? We've talked at length about that specific topic before (see episode 20). But we've never really dove into this topic before. On the surface, it seems like a simple answer...a card game is a game where cards are involved 😅. However, in todays market, with so many different types of games out there, it is so much more involved than there just being cards in a game to be considered "a card game." Hope you enjoy our discussion.

Today we talk all about digital card games, and some of our favorites that we've played. Monday, Cryptozoic Entertainment announced a new digital card game coming to the market in 2022 called DC Dual Force. That announcement sparked the idea of talking about this topic, and we haven't really dove into the topic before this. We've merely scratched the surface. Today we're really digging into it. Additionally, there's a lot of things happening behind the scenes here at hobbies + happiness we want you to aware of, so we talk about that too! Hope you enjoy!

Today we talk about a topic that we've touched on somewhat in the past, and that is the relationship of skill and RNG when it comes to tabletop and card games. RNG stands for random number generator, or random number game. Card games are really where this discussion has the most impact, as card games typically have more to do with randomness than other types of games. Especially when games get more competitive, does this topic come up, as higher skilled players eliminate as much randomness as possible from the game they are playing. But what about when the game consists almost entirely of randomness? We discuss the topic in this episode.

Today on the podcast, Dan and Jim discuss the differences between cooperative and competitive tabletop games, and which types of games they prefer to play. The tabletop gaming space offers so many different types of games, and maybe you're most familiar with gaming only being competitive. If so, there are so many different other types of games out there for you to enjoy! We discuss it on this episode of the hobbies + happiness podcast! Enjoy!

In today's episode, Dan and Jim start an interesting conversation regarding intellectual property (IP) in the tabletop space. Just about each and every game it seems like, is built or based on some sort of IP. We go back through our own history, and try to think back on some games that we were interested in, and why we were interested in them. Ultimately, it seems that today's consumer base, really bases a lot of their purchasing decisions on whether a game is ultimately a good game or not. It seems as though that did not always seem to be the case. Stay tuned as we discuss.

Today's episode is all about how crowdfunding platforms such as Kickstarter have completely changed the board game industry. Crowdfunding is a fantastic way for businesses and individuals to raise money for individual or business needs, like getting a new project off the ground and funded. Back in the day, only big companies had the money and resources to create board game products, but crowdfunding completely changed the way these types of projects were completed. Thankfully, now with the sites like Kickstarter, so many more and new products and projects are being able to get made and into the market. Today, Dan and Jim talk about how the industry has changed, and the positive and negative effects because of it.

After last week's episode, Jim and I (Dan) were playing a game called Unfair (it's awesome and you should check it out, link below). During the end of the course of the game, we started an interesting conversation, and it was one that I thought would make an great podcast topic. We got into talking about how we both have fun and find joy in different aspects of card games. That began the conversation, and this episode is the natural "conclusion" to it...or is it?

We tell you about our experiences with the genre as a whole, including some recent experiences, and tell you why we enjoy these types of games so much. Also, stick around for the end of the episode, where we have a special announcement! What could it be!

Last week on the podcast, Dan & Jim talked about how we as societies have migrated a lot of our activities to online and the internet, and specifically referenced playing tabletop games online. Many times, the unfortunate outgrowth of the internet, can be the very real experience of negativity, or "toxicity". This weeks episode is all about toxicity, and how it is manifested in gaming communities. We talk about the why, but most importantly, we try to discuss how we can help to be a part of the solution, rather than the problem. We hope you enjoy this weeks episode.

On todays episode, we talk about the very relevant topic of comparing and contrasting the experiences of playing tabletop games online and playing them in-person. 2020 was a heck of year...and not in a good way. What the year did do, however, was really shine a light on what things I think many of us take for granted, and for many people, meeting each other in person is one of them. Human beings need social interaction on a regular basis, and I think 2020 really showed a lot of people that. So that is really where the genesis of today's topic came from, but this conversation did not originate because of 2020. The tabletop industry in particular is no stranger to online meetings. We really get into this topic in today's episode.

Todays episode is all about Magic: The Gathering! Jim and I have talked quite a bit about Magic in previous episodes, but today we dedicate an entire episode around the game that we both enjoy so much. If you've never heard of Magic, or you're not the biggest fan of Magic, take heart! We hope there is still something for you on this episode of the Hobbies & Happiness podcast!

In this weeks episode, we talk about very important topic relevant to the tabletop hobby and industry, your Local Game Store (LGS). Local Game Stores are the life blood of your local tabletop community, or at least they should be. There is a lot that we could discuss on this topic that relates to local game stores and how they relate to their communities and customers, but we think this is a great place to start the conversation. We are leading this big topic off, with why you as a player should support your LGS. As always, if you have anything you would want to add to this conversation, don't hesitate to reach out to us below! We love hearing from our listeners!

This weeks episode, we talk about arguably one of the most important aspects in all of the tabletop gaming hobby, storytelling. Good stories keep us, the audience, the player, engaged. Good stories keep us coming back for more. When we are in the midst of a good story, we want to keep playing just to see what is going to happen in the story. I think we all know how it feels to be playing a game, or taking part in some form of entertainment, and when we finish the session, we immediately want to jump back in and keep going. On the flipside, I think we all know how it feels to take part in a game where the story is subpar. That's why we wanted to take this episode and devote it entirely to the topic of storytelling, and how it is weaved into the many different games and genres of some of our favorites.

On this weeks episode, we invite Bobby to sit down and chat with us! As you may recall, Bobby "appeared" in our last episode, so we invited him to be on the podcast to sit down with us and chat. Bobby, as some of you may have guessed, is Dan's brother-in-law Michael Fernandez. Michael is another "nerd" and enjoys many tabletop games just like us, so we thought he would be the perfect guest to have as our first interview! I'm excited to have him join us so he care share with you his journey with the wonderful hobby. You can find Michael on Instagram below!

On this weeks episode, we discuss what some of our favorite tabletop games are. We also start to delve a bit into our thought processes when it comes to what games we choose to play and why we play them. For those of you who think that all we will talk about are trading and collectible card games, don't fret! We did NOT add any of those games to the lists! While we may discuss card games, that is games which utilize cards as an in game mechanic, we steer clear of games such as Magic: The Gathering and Pokemon (although we all know that's all Jim would talk about if he could). We enjoy you enjoy this weeks episode, and hope that maybe we give you some ideas for games to play for your next family game night!

Today on the podcast, Dan and Jim discuss how difficult it can be to get into trading card games (TCGs) and collectible card games (CCGs). TCGs and CCGs have been around for an extremely long time and have become extremely popular among the tabletop gaming community. If there is an intellectual property, chances are there is a TCG or CCG based around that IP. The guys really enjoy these kinds of games themselves and always enjoy playing matches of their favorite card games. Getting into these games can seem like a daunting task, however. In this episode, they discuss some of the barriers to entry that exist in getting into these games, and ultimately, why they think it is worth it to jump in and over those hurdles, and to not them scare you off.
