    The tables have turned. This week, I am a guest on Koopa's pop culture podcast! Being a guest is way more fun than being a host, I get to just sit back and make jokes like an idiot (a cool idiot though, not like, a cringey idiot). We chat about Disney, Marvel, Arthur, but most importantly, the recent rumors of a live action Pokémon series coming to Netflix. Which led us to a bigger conversation on Nintendo's recent big moves towards making film versions of all their famous characters. Definitely a great conversation for any Nintendo fan.

    Upon the cancelling of a legendary Smash Bros event, smashers took to twitter to demand Nintendo change their company policies over piracy to save one of it's most beloved games, Super Smash Bros. Melee. Thus, #FreeMelee and #SaveSmash were born. As long time Smash community veterans, Arhungry and Glentendo break this all down for non-smashers but most importantly answer the big questions: Is the Smash community full of little babies crying or do they have a point? Is Glentendo just Miyamoto's pool boy or is he a galaxy brain philosopher with sex appeal?!
