    Episode 21 - Ch-ch-changes

    I guess we are back?

    After an extended break due to life and work commitments, Mik and Bry are back at it, going to a weekly format again.



    The main change is the show is no longer "family-friendly" although this doesn't make the content much different you won't hear the coins as much unless completely necessary.



    Contact Retro Bay Cafe on Facebook and Instagram if you have any discussion points you would like to hear our opinion on.
