Fun Podcast About My Childhood

This is a fun retro gaming podcast that takes me back to my childhood playing classic SEGA and Nintendo consoles. It also has a surprising amount of modern console stuff too.

Great news and a trip down memory lane

I’m so glad I come across this podcast as I have some of the big hitters but wanted more choices or retro gaming news and opinions. This is just great and the dynamic and different gaming styles from the guys works really well. I’m in my late 30s so the gaming timeline works great for me and most episodes I’m reminded of something I once owned or played at a friends. Keep up the great work

Something to listen to on a way to work

I keep listening to those guys on a way to work, fun, snappy with a dose of nostalgia.
