Great podcast, definitely worth checking out if you're into your retro. It's clear the presenters have a lot of love for all things 8-bit, 16-bit and beyond! Really well researched and engaging presenters.Read full review »

A genuine highlight to my week. The hosts have great chemistry and an abundance of passion for the subject matter.

Tuned into my first RGDS podcast and picked a great one, episode 300 and loved it. The guys are so knowledgeable and really know their games well and have a wide variety of specialities. Their passion really shows through and Kingy telling stories from his childhood really makes it a very stand...Read full review »

Ok
Ok, heavy UK retro focus but geez - dial back on the casual homophobia in some of the episodes (see predator episode)
Nickybangbang via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/15/22
A great bunch of guys doing some good stuff. Always a good depth of knowledge and interesting viewpoints not following the same old pattern, which always makes it a great listen! Drisk and Kingy pair-ups are my favourite, and we need a bit more Andy foster too !

Kingy’s knowledge of zx spectrum games is awesome and has a real warmth in his discussions. And Drisk’s arcade knowledge is top notch. 👍

Loved the scrolling beat ‘em up episode. This is my favourite genre of arcade game and it was great to try out a couple I hadn’t played before such as Violent Storm. Great to see Night Slashers covered!

Really good podcast with enjoyable and fun hosts. Shoutout to Kingy for burning the scottish AWIIENSSS into my brain. Listen and you will find out what it’s all about...
RedDiablo via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 05/02/21
Great podcast, inherited since the Andy Godoy days and they’ve kept the spirit alive with great care. All the guys are knowledgeable and affable, if a little too accepting of this draconian lockdown we are in. More Garron please. He’s not on regularly enough (though seems to be another great...Read full review »

The knowledge shared among these 8 or 9 guys is one of the main pulls for this show, but really it’s how the guys open open up about their experiences over the years with various computers, consoles and arcades. Where and how they played tends to open up your own memories of those bygone times....Read full review »

It was a little sexist, misogynistic, and homophobic. It's a pity as it's generally a decent show.Read full review »

Great Fun to Listen to, went back to the begining recently and it's so odd hearing Andy on his own, but still Good Fun!!Read full review »
Macaqueattack via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/13/19
A great, nicely produced show by genuine enthusiasts - a bunch of mates reminiscing rather than forced sounding reviews. A lot of it really takes me back, I often have the browser open to look up titles they discuss that I thought I'd forgotten so even though the episodes are often around...Read full review »

Recently become an avid fan, having listened to another awesome retro gaming podcast show, Retro Asylum. Still working my way through the early episodes, but really enjoying Andy's format so far. Look forward to hearing what the hosts have in store. Nice work Andy, and the team!Read full review »

Excellent show drisk and kingy! You two click so well and it makes your interesting fact filled episodes so easy to listen to. Been meaning to write a review for awhile now but after this episode I couldn’t wait any longer. The Amiga is my favourite machine and I did not know much about the PD...Read full review »

Great show, accessible topics, great variation on hosts.... awesome soundtracks!!

Hosts are fantastic. This is my fav retro podcast. Actually its my fav podcast. Keep up the good work!
MrTiff via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/29/18
A good accompaniment to the Retro Asylum podcast, RGDS covers a wide range of consoles and platforms. I particularly like Paul "The Drisk" Driscoll's episodes as he really does his research and knows his subject prior to recording. Keep it up chaps!Read full review »

We made podcast that the hosts really prepare for. It is very British tho. Lots of Spectrum talk.
FriedTurkey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/07/17
A very regular and enjoyable British retrogaming podcast that is a treat to listen to. The hosts are very passionate and know their stuff and are also very approachable on their social media pages such as Twitter etc. They know all too well that without the listeners, the podcasts would be...Read full review »

RGDS continues to go from strength to strength. The team Andy has put to together are a knowledgeable bunch and the chemistry between them ensures that each show is highly entertaining. Great stuff fellas, keep up the good work!

Love this podcast, varied episodes keep things fresh, as do the vast array of hosts who don't take themselves too seriously. Look forward to more great episodes in the future. Great meeting some of the hosts at play expo.Read full review »

Put simply the best retro gaming podcast out there. Great hosts, great relaxed manner, great show.
TheBuff1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/29/16
Recently started listening to them while working and made my work finally bearable. Always make my day and what I like most is... They are not talking down to people like 90% of you tubers. They are normal working guys that have a love of retro. Pure and simple. Epic! Keep up the hard work,...Read full review »
Ben Epsom via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/28/16
Andy's the best. I listen to this show in the early mornings while I'm driving to work. It's a point in time where I'm always grumpy & have a short fuse, but unlike many other hosts of lesser podcasts, Andy never p***es me off. The other guys are all pretty great as well....Read full review »

i think i have stumbled on my perfect podcast. Really enjoyed the couple ive heard so far.
Marnail via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/20/16
Rather that give listeners a history lesson, here is a podcast that talks about the experiences and memories behind classic videogames. Andy is a relaxed and friendly host, ensuring that no matter who the guests are, the result is just a friendly chat about old games, recorded for our enjoyment....Read full review »

I love these podcasts, always good topics of interest & I feel I'm I a room full of like-minded people. Love all the different stories of how people got into gaming/certain games. Keep up the good work guys!Read full review »

Really enjoyable podcast.keep it up.
All evan13 via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 04/02/16
Hosts-wise, the main fella has this eery intonation which one can never quite get used to but the rude boy side-kick is absolutely hilarious! The passion is there and some of the programmes' content structure is most inventive (A-Zs of) but in-depth knowledge of anything remotely obscure in...Read full review »

The RGDS podcast is undoubtedly one of the best, if not the best UK Retro Gaming Podcast. Not only to the RGDS Crew know their stuff, they are avid retro gamers too, all having lived and played through the original era when these consoles were the bleeding edge gaming systems of their day. Andy...Read full review »

Love this brings back some great memories of games of yesteryear, the hosts really know there stuff and I always learn something new everytime I listen. It's obviously a labor of love to the folks that produce this and they deserve zillions of subscribers for producing this.Read full review »
Russella0 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/13/16
Love this show. Surely Andy Godoy must be one of the hardest working pod casters out there! Keep it up.
Dazstorm via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/30/15
This show promises a lot but it doesn't really deliver. There's very little actual detail on games and what there's isn't too accurate. The guy also talks a lot about playing pirated games on his modded xbox, which isn't classic gaming and especially if you stole them man!...Read full review »

Only recently discovered Andy over the last few months, and been catching up on his shows from 1HMPS, onto some early Retro Asylum shows and then onto RGDS and have to say I love his enthusiasm - keep it up!
Howard Knibbs via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/29/15
So, Andy renamed it from "Retro Gaming Daily Show” to “Retro Gaming Discussing Show”. Now its longer, but the format is still good plus there are co hosts who really add to the show. I still rate it as 5 stars but only because I am not allowed to give it 10. It is well worth a listen for...Read full review »

What used to be 'bite sized chunks' is now a great 1 hour+ podcast. Like the different co-presenters on the podcast, they work very well with Andy. Enjoy the quiz also later on in the show. Great topics so far, one of the best retro podcasts out thereRead full review »
psj3809 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/07/15
If you're into retro gaming, you'll most definitely enjoy this podcast. Each week Andy and his co-hosts discuss a new retro topic. The show has a feel good vibe - like it's two good friends just shooting the breeze and discussing their hobby - which makes it very enjoyable to listen to.Read full review »

A podcast that fills the commute to work from people who understand what their talking about, all round good banter :)
Burchy1985 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/05/15
Nice to hear Andy back doing podcasting ,makes my day at work go faster catching up on all the back episodes and looking forward to what goes on in the future with the podcast. Keep up on the good work and keep gaming. Thanks
3d man via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/22/15
Andy is back and you can hear the difference in the new format. This podcast is the cream of the crop, with only Retro Domination, Press Play On Tape and Ten Pence Arcade being worthy neighbours. Essential listening for any gamer and especially for any retro gamer.
