As a child, watching adults try as hard as they could to understand what made Pokémon appealing to children and fail miserably was possibly the funniest thing ever. As the approach of Pokémon: The First Movie became imminent, MSNBC took it upon themselves to explain "what all the fuss is about", and they accomplished this by having Ira Gallen on the show to advertise as many Pokémon products as possible.
Ira Gallen has his own YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/tvdays and you can view his (apparently quite old, judging by the layout) Pokémon webpage at http://www.tvdays.com/pokemon.htm
Bonus points to anyone who recognizes which episode of The Simpsons this was recorded over without looking at the tags.
