  • Something seems a little…off
    Jan 26 2026

    Two of our heroes have an interesting encounter in Del Aro, while everyone else finally leaves Puentedad. Did the DM have way too much fun creating a language specific for this scenario? Possibly. Did he also have a nightmare of a time trying to type this out because the “D” and “C” keys stop working on his laptop, and thus have to copy/paste every time he had to use either? Very yes. Was he still giggling while making this description because this is ridiculous? Also yes. Just download the episode!

  • Goodbye Puentedad
    Jan 12 2026

    Our heroes are, finally, all departing Puentedad. Surely the next episode won’t have 3 of them again leaving the city…that would be ridiculous. Does one of the players get a new pokemon just because they were funny? Does another have a small emotional breakdown over complements? And will bike theft turn out to be a funny running joke? Download the episode and find out! NOW!!

  • Finally a gym battle
    Dec 29 2025

    Our heroes finish up things in Puentedad, and some of them make some interesting decisions. Did we have some decent sized adjustments to mechanics between sessions? Very yes, because stacking Intercepts almost made the DM cry, and he’s already a sad sad man. We also learned that a surprising number of pokemon could learn Teleport via TM in Gen 1, the dice really wanted Kade to get a bicycle at 1:00 A.M, and Steven has a pokemon encounter in real life. Download the episode and get all the cool deets, yo!

  • Warehouse Showdown, 8 Hotdogs, we’re sorry Emma, and always refresh your spreadsheets…
    Dec 15 2025

    Our heroes prepare to confront the nefarious Team Unity. They also keep a joke about hotdogs going from our pre-show chit chat, and I can’t cut it out without removing oh so much of the episode. How much HP does a car tire have? Is there an interesting twist? Do things maybe go too far in one player’s favor, and do we discover a handful of flawed mechanics in the DM’s homebrewed system because of it? The answer to these questions and more are in the episode, so why haven’t you listened yet? Do it now! Why are you still reading this??

    Also, we now have an instagram! Please go give us a follow and see our growing collection of pokemon cards and some art and other wonderful things! https://www.instagram.com/tenotepod/

    Oh, and if you can tell us who can tell me who the episode was “brought to you by”, comment in our Instagram post! First one wins a special prize.

  • We apologize to members of the service industry
    Dec 1 2025

    Tension! Drama! Danny vanished, the rest of the group is worried! Where is he headed? Will the rest of the group find him before it’s too late? Will he fall into the fiendish hands of Team Unity? Or will he pop in for a refreshing bowl of ice cream? Are Danny and Lee completely disrespectful to members of the services industry? And did Litwick become the DM’s new favorite pokemon? Don’t ask me, just download the episode.

  • Enter Team Unity
    Nov 17 2025

    Our Heroes continue the Puentedad Gym Challenge, but encounter a serious situation. What are the real motivations of the seemingly friendly Team Unity? What lengths will Lee go to in order to keep those he cares about safe? Will we experience some magnificent character moments? Will one of our players mix up their notes with AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT GAME and name-drop a city’s former mayor that the DM put in as a joke? Will we end on a cliffhanger? You can only find out by listening, so hop to it, kiddo.

  • Literally the Greatest Episode Ever
    Nov 3 2025

    Our heroes try to finish up their pokemon hunt before the festival starts tomorrow. Should the DM have been more detailed in describing the cemetery and maybe had some interesting lore about the graves? Probably, but pobody’s nerfect. Did the Ice Breaker reveal some kind of deep, deep trauma? Yes. Does that character need a hug? Of course! But you didn’t give them one! You probably didn’t even catch my Parks and Rec reference. Just enjoy the thumbnail art and download the episode, you monster!

  • Tangents, tangents, tangents
    Oct 20 2025

    Our heroes make some interesting discoveries, and take an opportunity to go out and catch some pokemon in preparation for the upcoming gym battle. Did the DM unintentionally give them more potential power than he planned. Maybe. Did we have a ridiculous amount of visual jokes and tangents that didn’t land because this is an audio format? Yes. Did I have to cut nearly a quarter of the recording because of this? Also yes. Are there still a bunch of bangers? Heck yeah! Listen to it now!!
