Games and Feelings

WYFPATISSNAY is back to ask the BIG QUESTIONS of Dr. Moiya McTier (Pale Blue Pod, Exolore, The Milky Way)! Pokemon is just a kids’ game, but how do the traditions, mythos, and Poke-powers relate to real-life humans? And, of course, I’m gonna say something nice about her AND tell her about her new favorite Pokemon.

Follow Eric on TikTok if that’s a place you hang out!

Stuff We Talked About

• Eric on Exolore talking about Pokemon
• The Real “Pokemon With Guns” Game
• The History of the Bat Mitzvah
• Moiya’s new favorite Pokemon
