  • Great show

    I love the show, both are pretty dedicated Pokémon GO players with great commentary and showcase different opinions and it’s just so much fun to just even listen to. I feel like these guys could just be your friends talking about the game with you. One of hosts tries to stir up trouble sometimes but does it in a way that is fun and good times
