<p>So, last night, I spent about twenty to thirty minutes chatting with <a href="http://twitter.com/paulEastwood">Paul Eastwood</a> from <a href="http://firsthour.net/">The First Hour</a> for the next episode of their podcast. It was my first ever involvement with a podcast, as well as a lot of fun. We chatted about videogames in general, and more specifically about <strong>Pokemon HeartGold</strong> and my take on it as a Pocket Monster n00b. I hope I didn&#8217;t sound too silly, and I managed to actually go the entire time without trying to say some of the crazy Pokemon names. Honestly, I have no idea how to safely pronounce Quilava or Buizel or Girafarig. There were a couple of topics that I thought about discussing only <em>after</em> the fact&#8211;such as how I&#8217;ve grown attached to the first few &#8216;mons I&#8217;ve caught and have no idea who is good to use and who is a waste of time&#8211;but that&#8217;s okay.</p>
<p>Hopefully our chat makes the cut! I think the episode is planning to go live&#8230;next week. Not sure on that, but stay tuned to find out.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Really silly, alternative title for this post that I still might use down the line:</span> Gotta podcatch &#8217;em all!</p>
