Hope you're having a lovely holiday wherever you are! I'm with my in-laws and decided to record an altogether different format for the show. While I walked around our neighborhood physically, I also walked around my Hearthstone thoughts figuratively. And during a time when the ladder is very fluctuating, I hope this similarly fluctual conversation helps you in your pursuit of laddering up!
