Episode 101: Mr. Mime Lays Eggs

It's been a few years since the last time we remixed Pokemon gyms, but a particular question from our 100th episode put us back in that mindspace. Turns out most of us also have deep trauma related to our own experiences with college internships. Who knew? So this week, we're examining the horrific truths of Pokemon's one-note minibosses by asking, "Which gym leader would host the worst college internship?"

Matt explains the internship experience that at least 50% of interns have. Todd proves to us why a communications degree is worth it. Oh, and Kyle gets sticky, like, really sticky.
