Summary
WARNING! This podcast has nothing to do with coffee. Pokemon is the most successful game/movie/merchandising franchise in the world by a long way, and in recent times that has gone to a whole new level. In the podcast we are joined by Jonathan D'allessando of Card Bot AU, a company that sells cards through vending machines. What started as a hobby for his brother CJ, ended up becoming a thriving business that cannot stock their machines quick enough! Regular listeners to this show know that Kirk LOVES Pokemon, so here is an opportunity to have some fun on a different topic. So what caused the Pokemon card wars? And how will they end?
