  • A Total Joy!

    Having discovered the podcast via The Guardian article here in the UK, I’ve been enjoying hour after hour of fabulous gaming discussion. Whether you grew up around the original consoles / games (ZX81 & BBC B for me) matters not. The warmth and interaction of our hosts brings a beautiful sense of friendship and belonging, no matter the depth of your gaming knowledge. Five Stars!

  • What a great podcast

    Who would’ve thought that two Americans finding joy in UKs favourite quirky micro from the 80’s could be so entertaining. Great work guys.

  • An excellent show

    I could listen to these guys all day. I’m an old spectrum fan and it’s great to hear their take on the old creaky games. I’ve even fired up the emulator (but you are way off on Wheelie!)

    Became a Patreon patron too.

    Cheers
