How quickly did Pokémon Go spread around the world? Days! But there's a downside to becoming so popular so quickly. This episode looks at the turbo-charged rise and fall of the pocket monster game. Plus...the weird and wiggly hobble skirt craze that made walking nearly impossible for women and teens. Why would anybody WEAR THAT?! (Hint: to fit in.)
For curious kids, 8-12.
