In this episode, Jeff and Josh take a deep dive into Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You! (2017)—a reimagining of Ash and Pikachu's very first adventure that somehow manages to be nostalgic, emotionally heavier than expected, and still absolutely unhinged. We break down Ash's worst (and occasionally best) decisions, Pikachu's “setting boundaries” era, and how a kid who can't wake up on time keeps getting chosen by destiny.We unpack the movie's major story beats and featured Pokémon—including Ho-Oh, Entei, Marshadow, Charizard, and Charmander—while digging into the themes hiding under the surface: abandonment, connection, what it actually means to be a “Pokémon Master,” and why this version of the story hits differently than the original series. Along the way, we call out the anime logic that makes no sense (legendary Pokémon being extremely rare… until they're not), debate Team Rocket's role in a feature-length film, and try to make sense of Ash's ongoing habit of dying and coming back to life.If you love Pokémon but also love laughing at its nonsense while still appreciating when it surprisingly gets things right, this episode's for you.Twitter: @pokemonsnapshotEmail: thepokemonsnapshot@gmail.comDiscord: https://discord.gg/PrRCKFjJrcYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@pokemonsnapshotTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thepokemonsnapshotRaving Energy (faster) by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/5030-raving-energy-faster-License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

For years, I've helped other Trainers tell their stories. This time, I'm telling mine. I step out from behind the mic to share my Pokémon story. Not as a highlight reel, but as a timeline of survival, wonder, and healing.From finding refuge in Pokémon Red and Blue during a lonely childhood, to learning friendship, curiosity, and identity through each generation, Pokémon became the place I could breathe when real life felt too heavy. Later, Pokémon GO pulled me back into the world into movement, community, leadership, and eventually the podcast itself. I also open up about grief, mental health, burnout, and what it meant to choose “one more time” when I didn't want to.This is about nostalgia, mental health, and healing through games and why stories deserve a place to live.SourcesOpening Song: "Forget You" by Alex_MakeMusic from Pixabay Send us a textSupport the show Visit our website: www.asthepokeballturns.com Join Our Discord Community!https://discord.gg/AqAbD7FbRt Your next Pokemon adventure begins here!

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob's 250th lesson on Pokémon biology. And for today's class, we will be discussing Ho-Oh: the Rainbow Pokémon. This legendary Pokémon has been said to fly across the world's skies, showing off its magnificent, rainbow-colored wings. And if you're lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Ho-Oh, legends say you will be promised eternal happiness. Does that also work if you look at a picture of Ho-Oh? Asking for a friend with seasonal depression. Ho-Oh has also been said to only reveal itself before a purehearted trainer. So keep your eyes on the skies, trainers, because you might just be blessed by Ho-Oh. And there's more to learn about this legendary Pokémon, so lock in and take notes!►Support the Professor's class on Patreon:⁠ ⁠patreon.com/wwopokemon⁠⁠►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

No Fim do Ano, Uma Conversa Sobre o Que Está em Causa Com Rui Cardoso Martins, no Pergunta Simples No último dia do ano, o Pergunta Simples oferece uma conversa que nos obriga a parar, escutar e pensar. Num tempo de urgências e distrações, Rui Cardoso Martins senta-se ao microfone para falar da única coisa que nunca sai de moda: a palavra — e tudo o que ela transporta. Escritor, cronista, argumentista, dramaturgo, repórter de guerra e professor universitário. Rui é um dos mais versáteis criadores da língua portuguesa. Um faz-tudo da escrita, como diz de si mesmo, capaz de passar do teatro à televisão, da reportagem à literatura, do humor à tragédia — sem perder a integridade, nem a humanidade. Esta conversa percorre décadas de jornalismo, atravessa fronteiras geográficas e morais, revisita tribunais e zonas de guerra, e detém-se naquelas perguntas que importam sempre: o que está em causa aqui? O que fazemos com o que vemos? Como escrevemos a memória? A Escrita como Resistência Rui começou no jornalismo nos anos 90, no nascimento do jornal Público. Foi repórter nos Balcãs durante o cerco de Sarajevo, embarcou no Lusitânia Expresso rumo a Timor, e cobriu as primeiras eleições livres na África do Sul. Testemunhou a História em carne viva — e sobreviveu a ela escrevendo. Um olhar atento, uma ironia serena, e uma linguagem afinada como um motor de avião: porque escrever mal, diz ele, pode ser mais perigoso do que um mecânico incompetente. Do jornalismo passou para a ficção, sem nunca abandonar o rigor. As crónicas judiciais Levante-se o Réu revelaram o teatro trágico e grotesco da justiça portuguesa, num tom que une Fernando Namora e Monty Python. A sua literatura — premiada e traduzida — transporta o peso da experiência, mas também a leveza de quem sabe rir do absurdo. Rui escreve como quem repara o mundo. De madrugada, antes que os Pokémons acordem, com uma folha branca como animal de companhia. O tempo da escrita é anterior ao ruído, à velocidade, à obrigação. É o momento em que a linguagem ainda não foi contaminada. A Memória e o Corpo da Palavra A entrevista percorre também o terreno íntimo da memória. Rui fala do papel dos cadernos, dos rituais, dos mestres como Cardoso Pires e Lobo Antunes — e da descoberta inesperada de que, sim, talvez seja mesmo um escritor. Há pudor, mas não pose. Há humor, mas não cinismo. Há sobretudo uma preocupação com a precisão: “tudo o que acontece no mundo passa pela linguagem”, diz ele. E acrescenta: quando a mentira tem o mesmo peso da verdade, estamos à beira da desgraça. A sua voz não é a de um moralista, mas a de um observador treinado. Rui descreve Sarajevo como um lugar onde o vizinho passou a ser o inimigo. Fala de genocídio, da escolha de um lado — e da ilusão de neutralidade em tempos de barbárie. Fala da Avenida dos Snipers, dos campos de futebol transformados em cemitérios, da ausência de cães, de gatos, de calor. A sua literatura é feita dessa matéria: o choque entre o que era e o que se tornou. Do Humor à Tragédia: a Responsabilidade de Dizer Criador de frases como o célebre “Penso eu de que…”, Rui ajudou a moldar o humor político com Contra-Informação, Herman Enciclopédia e Conversa da Treta. Mas vê nessa sátira algo mais profundo do que entretenimento. O humor é uma forma de resistência. Uma forma de pensar por dentro da linguagem, de devolver o ridículo ao poder, de encontrar o ponto fraco do discurso dominante. Fala da responsabilidade de quem escreve. De como se pode usar a palavra para curar ou para envenenar. De como a verdade se perde quando todas as versões da realidade parecem ter o mesmo valor. E de como o jornalismo, quando feito com rigor, ainda pode ser um antídoto para a manipulação. O Mundo que Vem A conversa fecha com uma pergunta que nos interpela a todos: a Europa está pronta para viver sozinha? Num tempo de guerras em curso, de democracias frágeis e de redes que amplificam o boato, Rui não tem ilusões: ou lutamos pela liberdade, pela educação, pela justiça, ou perdemos. A escrita, nesse contexto, é mais do que estética — é ética. No fim do episódio, Rui confessa: só quer contar histórias úteis. Úteis no sentido mais profundo da palavra. Histórias que sirvam para entender o mundo e para não esquecer. Histórias que transformem o banal em universal, o pequeno em essencial. Porque, como diz, não há escritor sem memória. E não há futuro sem narrativa. Este episódio foi originalmente publicado no Pergunta Simples, mas regressa agora como parte da nossa coleção Essencial. Uma conversa profunda, com valor reconhecido. Ouça ou reveja com tempo: continua atual, necessário e transformador.

On this week's episode of the Wayspotters Podcast, Jamal and Chris hit rewind on 2025 and take a month-by-month look at how Wayfarer really changed — not just through updates and announcements, but through reviewer behavior, community strategy, and shifting trust in the system. This isn't a “Niantic did this” or “Scopely did that” episode. It's about us — the reviewers, nominators, veterans, and newcomers who adapted as the rules stayed mostly the same, but the reality around them didn't. In Part 1, we cover January through June 2025, including: Reviewer fatigue and growing inconsistency early in the year How supporting info, upgrades, and edits quietly lost trust The moment skepticism replaced benefit-of-the-doubt Community adaptation through Discords, strategy sharing, and mentorship The impact of Niantic's games business being acquired by Scopely Think of this episode as the Wayfarer yearbook — fewer signatures, more opinions. Here's what we're talking about: Why 2025 felt different in Wayfarer — even before anything officially changed Reviewer fatigue, inconsistency, and the rise of “will this pass?” thinking How supporting information became the real battleground The growing distrust in edits, upgrades, and appeals When skepticism replaced benefit-of-the-doubt How the community adapted through strategy, Discords, and peer leadership The ripple effects of Niantic's games business being acquired by Scopely Show Credits Hosts: Jamal Harvey & Chris Bell Writer: Jamal Harvey Producer: Jamal Harvey Executive Producer: Kate Konz Show Historian: Matty G Recorded: December 23, 2025 Published: December 28, 2025 Season 4, Episode 51 Contact Us ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠wayspotters@pokemonprofessor.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Voicemail / SMS: 704-426-3710  Support the Show  Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/PokemonProfessor⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠wayspotters.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Follow! Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@wayspotterspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Twitter/X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@wayspotters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@imakewayspots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@WayspottersPodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Twitch: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠twitch.tv/pokemonprofessornetwork⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Community & Friends Wayfarer Discord: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠discord.gg/niawayfarer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ German Wayfarer Discord: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠discord.gg/ThTZCZH5⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/groups/2241761169257836⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Solstice:

Welcome to Episode 150 of Nintendo Therapy! Kevin is joined by Harrison to clear the calendar and ask the big end-of-year question: was 2025 a true Power Star year for Nintendo, or did it slip on a banana peel? We break down Nintendo's surprisingly stacked release schedule—from Donkey Kong Country Returns HD and Mario Kart World to the long-awaited Metroid Prime 4: Beyond—and talk through what landed, what didn't, and what defined the year. Kevin shares personal highlights and stats from a massive year of completions, including deep dives into classics, long-overdue backlog victories, favorite Nintendo Classics additions, and why 2025 felt like a year of collections, closures, and finally finishing what was started.Harrison brings a wider lens with a full Nintendo Classics 2025 retrospective, unpacking Nintendo's shift from expansion to consolidation, the strategic importance of GameCube on Switch 2, and how slower, deliberate rollouts shaped the service. The episode wraps with end-of-year awards, surprises, disappointments, and a bold prediction board for 2026–2027 covering Mario, Zelda, Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Switch Online, and future hardware. Plus, we reflect on finally getting our hands on the Switch 2—the system this podcast was practically built waiting for. Nintendo Therapy is part of the Sidepanel Network, and don't forget to check out this week's episode of Harrison Talks Pod, with more coming soon.

This holiday week episode of the Epic Universal Podcast was recorded on Christmas Eve, which means Jim and Eric are juggling last minute shopping, customer service horror stories, and a surprisingly full slate of Universal news. From attractions closing sooner than expected to permits hinting at big changes in Islands of Adventure, this show looks both at what is ending and what might be coming next. They also zoom way out, from Epic Universe's nighttime ambitions to the possibility of Universal's next global park landing in a very hot climate. NEWS • The Horror Make-Up Show at Universal Studios Florida is officially closing January 4, with speculation swirling about what kind of reimagined experience might replace it. • New permits tied to Intamin suggest real movement in the Lost Continent area at Islands of Adventure, fueling renewed talk of a possible Legend of Zelda attraction. • Universal files trademarks for Celestial Goodnight, pointing strongly toward a nighttime spectacular at Epic Universe. • Ongoing guest surveys hint that a FanFest-style separately ticketed event could be headed to Universal Orlando, featuring IPs like Lord of the Rings, Pokémon, Godzilla, and K-Pop Demon Hunters. • Universal is reviewing bids for a long-term transportation system connecting Epic Universe with the original Universal Orlando campus. FEATURE • A Wall Street Journal report revives talk of a Universal Studios park in Saudi Arabia, likely financed by the Saudi government through a licensing deal. • How this potential project echoes past international ventures like Dubailand, including what went wrong and what Universal may have learned. • Why indoor, climate-controlled parks are the only viable model for the region and how this mirrors Disney's recent Middle East strategy. • What all of this says about Universal's future, from regional parks like Universal Kids Resort to massive international expansions.

Hello there and Merry HISSmas! Welcome to Professor Jacob's 249th lesson on Pokémon biology. For today's class, we will be discussing Lugia: the Diving Pokémon. But it is also known by its much cooler title: the Guardian of the Seas! This legendary Pokémon is said to spend its time deep at the bottom of the ocean, shielding the world from its incredible power. With power so great, Lugia has been said to cause a 40-day storm by simply flapping its wings. However, Lugia is also known to calm raging storms. It giveth and it taketh away. It brings the storm, then calms it. The Master of the Tides, the Lord of Storms, the Guardian of the Seas. Grab your HISSmas stocking and notebook because it's time to learn about Lugia!►Support the Professor's class on Patreon:⁠ ⁠patreon.com/wwopokemon⁠⁠►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

David Choe is a world-renowned artist, writer, podcaster and TV host. He tells how as a child, he was made to believe he was destined for greatness but also that he was a complete disgrace, leading him to channel his energy—including deep shame—into art that brought him global recognition. He shares about his addictions that put him on a decades-long cycle of extreme highs and lows and that forced him to eventually acknowledge and heal the childhood trauma he was battling inside. David shows up with raw, authentic presence to show us how we can transmute pain and shame into our best creative work and, more importantly, how complete vulnerability, especially about our hardest experiences, is the ultimate tool for forgiveness and self-acceptance. He also tells us the actual story about early Facebook, Pee-wee Herman and Santa Claus. Note: This conversation includes topics and language that may not be suitable for younger audiences.

It all comes together in the final episode of our Pokémon Legends Z-A mini-series! In this episode, we break down the biggest boss fights, dive deep into the full story and character arcs, and react to the brand-new Mega Evolutions revealed throughout the game.We discuss which boss battles delivered the most hype, how the rivals and supporting cast shaped the story, and whether the new Megas feel balanced, overpowered, or game-changing. Finally, we give our final verdict on whether Pokémon Legends Z-A truly lives up to its legacy and sets the standard for future Pokémon games.

Charlie and Miles have ‘gifted' each other episodes of Star Trek to talk about, both good and bad. The problem with being casual about Star Trek is you just don't know all of what's out there. That's what the Casual Trek mission is for, after all. This year the gang are doing something different, talking about a film that's adjacent to Star Trek, and even some Trek actors say is the best Star Trek movie: Galaxy Quest. They've even got guest stars Reanna Reid-Lobatto and Sean Corse from off of the Famicom Dojo joining the festivities.So sit by the fire, get a nice drink and listen to some nerds getting rabid about a fun film, even if it has Tim Allen in it. 0:03:47 - What Non-Star Trek/non-Galaxy Quest Thing We've Been Enjoying: Pokémon Legends ZA, Taskmaster, 0:21:49 - Galaxy Quest Preamble0:33:12 - Galaxy Quest Recap0:54:51 - Thoughts on the movieTalking points include: The Mojoverse, the Junkions, chilli, needing to cuddle a Pokémon, Detective Pikachu, Pokémon Legends ZA, John Pertwee's Doctor Who episodes, conventions, Thought Bubble, Sean learning about names from the UK, Westlife, Santana, Chat Out of Hell's Westlife episode, Charlie's musical knowledge comes from Rock Band, Miles' anecdote about how he saw Galaxy Quest (funny, charming), Charlie's anecdote about watching Pokémon: The Movie (thankfully short, of questionable legal status).

Lured Up Podcast 376: A Ticket For Every Event Live Streamed on - 12/16/25 Publish Date - 12/19/25 The game is overrun with costume Pokémon which has to mean that the Holiday Season is upon us! Are you Team Sudowoodo or Team Charjabug? One thing is for sure, we know Adam will be out catching every Delibird he can find! With two weeks of Holiday events ahead of us, we start things off with a recap of the last week of gameplay including Well Armed, GMAX Snorlax, and Citi Safari events. With the Well Armed's Global Challenges powering extra Candy XL for GMAX Snorlax, Trainers had good reason to get out there and grind over the last week. The Holiday events kicked off this week and brought a GO Pass along with it, but the rewards may not be the strongest this time around. Will a Snom Beanie be enough to sell the GO Pass? We don't think so but Trainers may be in it more for the process at this point. Part 2 of the Holiday Event picks up on Christmas Eve and brings back some past costume Pokémon as well as the debut of the Rolycoly line. The Winter Weekend mini-event opens the GO Pass progression up and adds a Timed Research as well. While Niantic hasn't shared the January Content Update yet, they are giving us plenty of event blogs to get us excited. Of course we will have a New Year's event which will bring back some popular costume Pokémon and some fancy avatar boots to boot. Grookey has been announced as the first Community Day Pokémon of the new year, while Piplup will show up during Community Day Classic. If that wasn't enough of a January preview for you, Kyurem Fusion Raid Day is also on the docket, which will will surely be a strong IRL and remote event. We wrap things up with a discussion about the state of the game, and how even with some performance issues like crashes and dropped frames, the game overall is in a really good state. Trainers have tons of options of how to spend their game time, with multiple mechanics taking Trainers down different types of experiences. One thing we have noticed, is that with increased item and Pokémon storage available, inventory maintenance has become a long and monotonous task that takes up a lot of our valuable screen time.

Why do high-achievers feel perpetually behind, even while consuming more content than ever? In this conversation, Pat Flynn explains the trap of “overlearning” and how it quietly keeps us stuck in motion without progress. You'll learn how to shift from “just-in-case” learning to “just-in-time” learning, create real momentum with a simple four-step framework, and protect what matters most with practical boundaries. Along the way, Pat shares how these principles helped him build multiple successful businesses (including a Pokémon channel with millions of followers) without sacrificing his family, health, or joy.Memorable Quotes“We all, in a way, are not just our overlearning, but we're getting over-inspired. We're so connected with so many amazing people out there who teach us this and push us over here, and then we're pulled over this way. We're spread so thin it's we're we're not seeing any results in our own life.”“Now we all have access to all the same kind of information, but we're still treating it as if it's scarce…However, we now live in a buffet line of information… and we're not quite evolved to absorb all of this because we're stuffing our plates full. Not only are we getting bloated and and and slowed down, but we're also getting force-fed on these platforms.”“This is the difference between ‘just-in-case learning,' which is what we've all been doing, and ‘just-in-time learning,' which is learning what you need to know to just take that next step. Because truly the action of taking that next step, the results of that one way or another—whether there are good results or bad results—can teach you so much more than just absorbing this information and never taking any action at all.” “[Silence] allows me to be with myself and to digest the things that I've already learned, to think about my priorities and the things I've already committed to. It allows me to make creative connections between things that I have already picked up instead of just getting more puzzle pieces to try to figure out where they go.”“I mean I was always taught that again, ‘The more you know the more successful you'll be,' and there's always seemingly opportunities to inject more of that learning. And it has this sort of fake productivity that goes along with it, because it is only truly productive, in my opinion, when you actually put into action those things that you do read or listen to or watch.”“At our authors retreat, a theme across most of the people there was not optimizing for revenue, not optimizing for scale, but optimizing for peace. And that was huge to think about.”“If I give myself five months to learn, I'm gonna take five months to learn it. If I give myself five hours to learn, I'm gonna take five hours to learn it. So I almost use time as a tool to help me get to the point of action and then understanding sooner.”“I've developed this rule called the 20% Itch Rule, and that is, out of all the things you do, 80% of your time is dedicated to the things you've already committed to, the things that, the responsibilities you have, the things that you've already said, yes to. The last 20% of time, allocate for curiosity, for play, for experimentation.”Key TakeawaysOverlearning Is a Hidden Productivity Trap. Constant consumption creates a sense of progress without producing results—and often adds more “to-dos” than your life can hold.Shift from “Just-in-Case” to “Just-in-Time.” Learn only what you need for the next step, then take action. Real learning accelerates through doing.Use the 4-Step Lean Learning Cycle. Identify the next step → choose one resource → implement → review. Repeat.Silence Helps You Digest What You Already Know. Pat's “silent car” habit creates space for integration, creativity, and clarity.Watch for “Junk Sparks.” Many ideas are just distractions dressed up as opportunity—especially when algorithms reduce the friction to buy, click, or binge.Try the “20% Itch Rule.” Dedicate 80% of your time to current commitments and responsibilities, and reserve 20% for curiosity, experimentation, and play—without blowing up your life.Optimize for Peace, Not Scale. More revenue isn't always worth the hidden cost. A Double Win means there's still room for what makes you feel most alive.ResourcesSmart Passive Income (Pat's Business)Superfans (Book)Lean Learning (Book)Watch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/aLp6hHTrYQsThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound
