“The definitive retro games podcast. It is funny and (mostly) well informed with great hosts and equally great guests. It also is well recorded and edited so that it doesn't sound like it was recorded with a Talk Boy.”

Bob is funny and has a great rapport with his guests, talking about a...”Read full review »

It makes me want...”Read full review »

Fandango…? Yup. Fandango. Also, video fandango games, that are older than the Fandango service. Unless you count Grim Fandango. Oh, wait, that's older than Fandango, too. FANDANGO.
Etc. Great podcast.”
