About the Pokémon legends review

The seconded review was weird when they talked about the game boy they never played fire red before that is just the og games so the could see color and why chose squirtel as your starter and Pokémon is better as an older seeming game as it grows 3 gens behind the games today but that is what people like about Pokémon

Fav podcast to listen to !!!!

Seriously both of these humans are brilliant at writing and thinking and I really love hearing their takes

Truly innovative program/podcast about the arts

Their perspectives are unlike any I’ve ever seen but they don’t use those or their beliefs for bomb-throwing: just direct critical analysis while reviewing art, exhibitions, and games - and their contexts - on a new level and a new way of engagement. And with two unique personalities that gel perfectly but still shine separately through the episodes.
