On this brand new podcast, Jon and Fin will play through the same game, at the same time, checking in periodically with each other to share their adventures. Each season will feature a brand new game.

This season we're playing Pokémon Red & Blue.

First released in the west in 1998, these classic Game Boy RPGs laid the groundwork for what would become the highest grossing media franchise of all time. Our two heroes must choose their starters and set off on a journey through the fantastical region of Kanto. They must tread carefully though, as the newly imposed nuzlocke rule set means there is no room for error.

Can these two make it all the way to the Indigo League and become Pokémon Champion? Their journey starts here!
