Customer Reviews
Love This
Feedback: Guys, either stop dropping f-bombs or stop editing them out because it made that whole Amico discussion unlistenable. Akkkk!
Solid retro gaming podcast whose time is over
I listened to this podcast for many years. It was a good run while it lasted, but it has come to an end. They will no longer regularly do the show after episode 350. Once regularity ends, that is the death knell of any podcast or YouTube show. I’m going to miss these guys, but the writing has been on the wall for quite some time. Ian wants to move on, as does Pat. I hope we see them in the retro gaming space in some capacity because their opinions always seemed to come from a place of intellectual honesty, which is important in what has become a very expensive and often exploitative hobby. I wish them well and thank them for the years of entertainment.
Ugh
2 guys whining and crying about all pop culture.
