15 Min Max — The Most Unique Pokemon

15-Min-Max-logo_smallIt’s an all-new 15 Min Max episode! We’ve decided to combine the 15 Minute Max podcast (and an upcoming series by big brother Alex*) with the newly launched Hey Comics Kids podcast. That means subscribing to Hey Comics — Kids will get you three different podcasts from my boys and me. This morning, during the drive to school, Max talks about the top five most unique Pokemon that he’s experienced. And after that, he shares his anticipation for Pokemon’s uncoming releases, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. Please bear with the background noise. I’ve isolated the issue, and I’m  confident we’ll be uploading sparkly-clean podcasts beginning with the next episode. *He’s desperate for a title for his podcast. 15 Minute Alex just doesn’t cut it.
