Great Podcast

As a Brit when I listen to American gaming podcasts whilst most are good mostly they are entirely focussed on the American scene, which is understandable but occasionally one dimensional.
British podcasts are-I feel -a little more aware of the international scene. Happily these guys are completely aware of that an international scene exists and are supremely versed in what was happening in gaming in Britain and elsewhere back in the day- this is thoroughly refreshing!
I really enjoyed their Commodore 16 special-even though the system is American it was largely ignored in its homeland but did however manage to carve a niche in Europe, these guys knew about all that and made it all very entertaining. Will one subscribe? You bet your sweet bipi I will!

Something for all Retro gamers

Unlike most retro gaming podcasts this covers a different system or genre each week. Topics are chosen by a spin of the fearsome Wheel! Chances are there will be something you weren’t aware of. Interesting and fun.

The Amigos Do it again!

Another awesome podcast, same format as Amigos but covering non-Amiga games, great idea. Aaron and Brent do a great job talking about the history of the chosen platform and game, which must take a lot of time to research.
