45: Beyond 40 Fathoms
Marine Conservation and Tomb Raider
Lara Croft faces many underwater beasties during her quests, however are these marine menaces actually misunderstood? I spoke to Tomb Raider fan and activist Bernardo Hautenne from Blue Religion, a marine conservation group based in Mexico, and asked how the game's creatures measure up to their real-life counterparts.

44: Clinical Psychology & Tomb Raider
In this episode, I speak to clinical psychologist and Tomb Raider Dr Amy Goodrum about the positive benefits video games can have on players, and how the media's portrayal of video games as the cause of violent and aggressive behavior isn't as clear cut as they'd have us believe.

Well, we made it at last. Alfredo's TR3 journey has concluded, but you had many questions for him. We gathered a big bunch of them, combined some, and I fired them at him for a special episode.

Customer Reviews
Absolutely Great Podcast
Love this podcast! The shared love and nostalgia comes through. Great game information, interviews and mythological discussions!
Five stars
Hi Chris, just listened to the first episode of raidercast and I wanted to say I loved it. While not my game series of choice, I do still remember getting the second game for Christmas. I don’t think my family saw me for a week!
Your passion for your history with the series and gaming in general was a joy to listen to. I shall listen to episode two on tomorrow’s dog walk and look forward to continuing to hear more, I’m a huge Warcraft nerd and love a bit of lore, so I look forward to learning more about Lara’s world.
Greatness from small beginnings
While I was thrilled at the idea of a podcast dedicated to all things Tomb Raider, I feel this one has missed the mark. The host while displaying a great affection for the franchise and a vast knowledge of the topic’s he discusses, its all very one sided. Most episodes start of with something relating to tomb raider then he will go off on tangents about his own thoughts and feelings about things that aren’t even to do with the video game. And in turn each episode starts to feel, unfinished and very biased. Even admittedly, the host frequently says that certain topics will be picked up in future episodes and so far we’ve been left hanging. While I understand this podcast is to unearth the real myths and legends that fuel the tomb raider story lines, so far, it feels like it’s just a 20 minute podcast where the host talks about what he wants to believe the true stories are and how he’s well known in the tomb raider community. I understand that it takes a lot of effort to produce a podcast and what direction to take it, but it’s early days and there is lots of room for improvement.
