Welcome to the Chance pod! This podcast is mostly Sarah reading her (clean) longform Pokémon fanfiction, with other characters voiced by her friends. Kind of an unusual podcast format, and definitely an amateur production all around, but we're rolling with it. You'll also find a variety of bonus episodes, including bloopers, conversations with non-pokemon-players about what in heck is happening, and whatever else Sarah thinks of.
