This week, we’re cracking open Pokémon packs—Knives learns the “correct” way to do it. We discover that only some of us actually did our homework, question how certain drummers have never heard some of the biggest songs ever made. Plus, we discuss rumored new Pokémon in *Winds and Waves* and discuss TV shows and movies ratings. Come for the Pokémon pulls; stay for the rapidly aging music fans.

Nintendo finally gave us a Direct, so naturally we had opinions. This week we break down the biggest announcements, dive into why tower defense games are so addicting, debate the representation of redheads in movies and TV, and try to explain what directors actually do behind the camera. Then we go completely off the rails by imagining a world where humans could control the elements—and discussing all the ways we'd inevitably ruin civilization with those powers. As always, we sprinkle in plenty of random tangents, laughs, and side conversations along the way. Buckle up, because this episode goes everywhere.

This week, the pre-show became the show.

Before we officially kicked things off, we found ourselves in a debate that was too good to cut, so we kept the cameras rolling and rolled with it. From there, we dive into Pokémon cards, the ongoing headache of scalpers, nightmare neighbors, and what the New York Knicks winning did to the city of New York.

We also chat about local card shops, tournament culture, and float the idea of opening Pokémon packs live on the podcast. Whether that's a great new segment or a terrible financial decision... we'll let future us figure that out.

Sometimes the best conversations happen before the intro. This is one of those episodes.

This week on Live, Laugh, Levels, we somehow managed to cover everything from zombie outbreaks and road construction to doctor visits and mysterious ear problems. We swap stories about injuries, surgeries, and the ever-increasing cost of... well, everything.Along the way, we dive into some surprisingly emotional topics, share a few food-related adventures, tell stories about our parents, and discuss the fascinating world of Santa believers. We also sprinkle in a little anime talk, debate how much road work is too much road work, and somehow end up discussing doxxing.It's one of those episodes that bounces between hilarious, heartfelt, and completely unhinged—exactly the way we like it.

This week on the podcast, we bounced between all kinds of topics. We shared some pet stories, talked about our time in Pokémon Scarlet, and discussed building model kits, from Gundam to Pokémon kits. We also revisited the Pokémon anime and highlighted one of Skele's biggest Soul-Link Nuzlocke mistakes that still has us questioning his decision-making.From there, we got into bugs, Bethesda games, and the never-ending battle against household pests before wrapping things up with a surprisingly lengthy discussion about reptiles.If you enjoy gaming stories, questionable Pokémon decisions, random tangents, and a group of friends getting sidetracked every few minutes, this episode is for you.

On this episode of Live, Laugh, Levels, we play a bunch of games and somehow end up talking about being essential workers during the dark days, Dude Wipes, and random childhood memories.

We introduce AlphaDex, our Pokémon version of the Starts With / Ends With Letter game from last episode, and also play another Pokémon game where two hosts give Pokémon types and everyone has to guess the Pokémon.

We also tried another game… but it failed so badly that we don’t even talk about it.

Later, BoL and Aaron talk about the things they used to do as kids and some of the dumb stuff they survived growing up.

Welcome back to Live, Laugh, Levels — the podcast where the conversations go from completely unhinged to weirdly philosophical in record time. This episode, the crew dives back into another chaotic round of Pokémon Odd One Out, discussions on what their final meal would be, shares some near-death experiences, and somehow still finds time for random gaming tangents, questionable opinions, and enough side quests to confuse a GPS.

It’s funny, cursed, slightly concerning, and exactly the kind of energy you signed up for. Grab a snack (preferably not your hypothetical last meal) and join the chaos.

We bounce between Pokémon Odd One Out, random thoughts on sour candy, and what we’d choose if we had a button that could instantly bring us anything.Somewhere in there, we also get into our picks for the most attractive male celebrities, along with some movie talk—covering release delays, leaks, and whatever else comes up along the way.Just a mix of conversations that somehow all connect… or don’t
