Show notes

We've all been there. You sit down and break the seal on a new pack of cards, you smell the new card smell, you deal out a starter hand of Solitaire -- and then it dawns on you: you accidentally bought evil cards again! This keeps happening!

Today, Jack and Austin sit down to talk about evil card games and discuss Forbidden Solitaire and Black Jacket.
