Hello everybody, and welcome to a special guest host edition of The Magic Show. This week I'm on vacation at the beach with my family. Instead of leaving you high and dry, two avid fans of the show - Nick Miller and Reuben Dresler - are here to provide you with some viewing entertainment.
A very special thanks to Nick and Reuben for all of their hard work. I really didn't want to miss a week of the show, and it's nice to know that I have such dedicated fans and fellow Magic video enthusiasts.
I'll be back next week to tackle the problem of Grand Prix: Flash, the Flame-Kin Zealot Bridge from Below combo, and more!
So until next week, this is, ah... Nick and Reuben's guest show, tapping the cards so I don't have to.
