183 – Gotta Catch ‘Em All! (with Michael Helmbrecht)

This week, we’re joined by the magnificent Michael Helmbrecht for a journey into the Pokémon universe. Start filling in your Pokédex as we discuss generations of the game, how Pokémon have infiltrated pretty much every aspect of pop culture, and of course, Pokémon You Should Know™™™. Later, enjoy a quiz called “Who’s That, Pokémon?”
