Welcome to another very special episode of Commander ad Populum. Commander for the people, by the people, for the people.

This week, I sit down with Commander Architect for Wizards of the Coast, Gavin Verhey. We kick things off with some CadPop Quick Hits as Gavin starts to tell us about what he does and how he operates on a day to day basis. In part one of this interview, we touch on the cultural influences of Gavin's travels on the game of Magic. We hear some stories on how travel and world culture has shaped Magic and our organized play experience.
