Feel good, nostalgic, accessible, welcoming. Such a positive vibe. Excellent guests, brilliant flow and questioning by Iain. You’re a fly on the wall just listening in to gamers, unashamedly, getting their geek on. Love that the chosen games are across many platforms, allowing for a dive into that era, system and shared experiences of the time. Appreciate all the work and effort in puting the show together and the passion and genuine excitement Iain and his guests have for their chosen games. Glad this is back in 2025.
It’s back!!

I was really enjoying this podcast with its excellent content and eclectic guest list so was sad when it seemed to have ended. Fortunately Iain has released new episodes with renewed enthusiasm and the break appears to have had a positive effect. The way he interacts with his guests and the warmth he shows them is really infectious. Such a likeable guy, such a likeable podcast.
Excellent retro-themed show

As someone the wrong side of 50, I remember many of the games and platforms covered in this podcast. It’s a wonderfully entertaining look back at the early days of home gaming with some great guests, interviewed effortlessly by Iain Lee. Highly recommended.
Fantastic.

Iain Lee brings humour and knowledge with a special guess every week. 5 stars from me. He should have a radio show for sure. More Zx Spectrum games please! 🕹👾🥰
A podcast that brings human stories into retro games

Iain does a wonderful job of putting guests at ease as they describe the video game they played in their youth. He somehow manages to draw out from them the stories around how the game impacted them as much as the title itself. A fantastic and fun listen, highly recommended.
