Coop Back Podcast

On Season 2, Episode 3, we start with roadworks that make absolutely no sense, somehow end up talking about printing an entire Pokédex, online chess, and Tekken 8, then finish by debating influencer culture, content creator monetization, and whether Kadooment should be two days. In other words, a completely normal episode of the Coop Back Podcast.
