Which of the X-Men would be the biggest bummer of a roommate? Is King Bob-Omb's rule officially recognized by the Mushroom Kingdom or is Bob-Omb Battlefield a sovereign nation? Debate This! asks the kind of bold and heroic questions about your favorite video games and comics that no other podcast would dare ask. Although, it's probably because other people have better things to do than argue which color of Yoshi is the best color of Yoshi. In this show, no one is right, but someone is definitely wrong.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-17T04:17:46.301668+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/debate-this-66046"},"episode":{"title":"Ep. 185: Seize the Means of Pokéduction","slug":"ep-185-seize-the-means-of-pok-duction","published_at":"2026-01-13T15:27:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/debate-this-66046/ep-185-seize-the-means-of-pok-duction","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/debate-this-66046","url":"https://debatethis.libsyn.com/ep-185-seize-the-means-of-pokduction","audio_url":"https://pdcn.co/e/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/debatethis/BudgetPokemon_FIXED.mp3?dest-id=666941","summary":"When a podcast records its ninth season premiere, it begins to ponder its relevance. Are people still listening? Are there any debates left to be had? Have we done all the bits there are to do? When these questions begin to plague a podcaster, they return to their roots: Pokémon and formative British literature. Don't worry, we found another bit! This time we're building Pokémon games on a budget. Kyle suggests standardization. Matt suggests recycling. Andrew suggests seizing the means of production.
