  • Best Retro Gaming Podcast Around

    It’s a shame this podcast isn’t more popular. It’s fantastic and blends goofy fun, opinions, interviews, and educational topics. If you’re expecting them to talk about Zelda every episode or something, it might not be for you. They’ll discuss pinball, golden era arcade games, the C64 and other topics the usual retro podcasts won’t touch. But even if you’re not familiar with those topics I’d recommend listening because it’s fun to learn!
