Practical Pokémon - Pokémon Sword & Shield / Practical Magic

Pokémon is the world’s most profitable entertainment franchise, with more than two decades of trading cards, manga, TV shows and movies stoking the flames of fandom. At its core is a series of games so iconic that when its latest installment, Pokémon Sword and Shield, broke slightly from the mold, it generated fire and fury online. We give our two cents on the newest game, the series as a whole, and the backlash in today’s episode.

Despite Halloween having passed, we also take a look at the shockingly well-cast yet poorly received witchy movie Practical Magic starring Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, some frozen margs, and gay icon Stockard Channing. And if you like what you're hearing, please tell your friends about us! It’s seriously a huge help.
