Fantastic podcast full of Nostalgia, although im tapping out with Lunar its a real slog please no more like Lunar 😂 highly recommend for any JRPG fan
Podcast Addict5a month agoWazza- Excellent show
JRPG book club for people like me who loved the IDEA of the genre growing up but never actually got through a lot of its games. Clever, funny hosts, comprehensive explorations of games, and a really cool conceit in the FAKENET to catch all those mistakes and provide clarifications that wouldn’t have been possible normally with a live-to-tape style show.

I love the banter between these 2. Very relatable, I can listen these guys all day! Thanks for the uploads.
Apple Podcasts5Loic1982Canadaa year ago - Came for Suikoden, stayed for ALL the good stuff!
It’s all I ever wanted in two adult gamers: the ability to turn (mainly) JRPGs into marathon therapy sessions. And they also discuss their marathon experiences. No I did not repeat myself!
Do you wanna’ hear some hot sounds I’ve recorded?

Swedena year ago - One of the best out there
If you love Retrospective type podcast this is one of the best out there. They pick great games and take their time going through them. Just the perfect type of podcast for me. It’s like getting to live through these games from my childhood again without having to play all the way through them. Great job guys, I hope there are many more episodes to come.
