Blasting Off Again: Recent Episodes
Blasting Off Again
A Pokemon watch-through podcast that tackles the hard-hitting issues. Proud member of the Upford Network. Hosted by Tom Zalatnai & Will Grant.
We give some quick life updates, then talk about Blastoise a whole lot! Also Animal Crossing, barbecues, and animals with built-in defense mechanisms, like the mantis shrimp! This of course sets Tom off on a rant about how much better Octonauts is than Paw Patrol. You know, because this is a Pokemon podcast or whatever.

We're back from our Covid-induced hiatus to finally see what happens in Ash's gym battle with Blaine! We talk about the quarantine, the importance of self-care, and how nice it is to see Ash rewarded for choosing to let his Pokemon rest instead of pushing them. Then, we share some thoughts on the new trailer for Pokemon Journeys, the upcoming globe-trotting adventure! We'll be recording remotely for the foreseeable future, so.. sorry for audio issues! They won't be permanent! Eventually things will be back to normal! Please stay in your homes as much as possible and help get rid of this damn virus!

Will challenges himself to say every word you're not supposed to say within the first minute of the show, while Ash & friends make their way to Cinnabar Island for a gym battle with Blaine! Then, we talk about Magmar, Magby, and Magmortar, before opening a pack of new Sword & Shield TCG cards!

We were super disappointed that this wasn't Meowth's origin story, but that didn't stop us from having a great conversation about whether or not you should let your kids believe lies and how much you should tell them about the reality of the world. We also get into how nice it is to see Team Rocket trying to be the good guys, and give our spicy controversial takes on Galarian Meowth.

For whatever reason, the English dub made Butterfree the featured Pokemon for this episode, but that's real dumb, so we decided we'd spend a good chunk of this talking about Lickitung instead! Also, princess festivals, gender dynamics, the importance of calling out problematic humour, and more!

Are Team Rocket impostors or just totally incompetent? When did James get a Weepinbell? What are the ethical & ecological implications of leaving your Pokemon to breed with Ditto over and over again forever? Then, we talk about everyone's favorite perpetual-headache, Psyduck, and the new Sword & Shield anime series!
