    Episode 73 - Not Just A Knockoff!

    Episode 73 - Not Just A Knockoff!

    Greetings and welcome to Episode 73! In this one, Brian recalls a nice
    little haul he got one Christmas, and gives an Atari 2600 classic the full
    treatment.

     

    If you would like to contact the show, you can send an
    email at arcadeaddictbrian@gmail.com or you can leave a voicemail for the show
    at 734-623-0832. The show also has a Facebook page, and is also on Instagram,
    Twitter, Threads, Bluesky, TikTok (when I have videos) and Tumblr. All of these
    links can be found at https://linktr.ee/arcadeaddictbrian.
    I am also putting the back catalog on Youtube as well, a little bit at a time.
    Just search for arcadeaddictbrian or the podcast, and you will find them!

     

    You can help the show by leaving a five-star review
    wherever you listen to it, which helps other people find it. If you want to
    help the show directly, go to https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/coaa
    and click on the Donate button. For as little as a dollar a month, you can help
    the show develop further as a podcast, as I use those funds for things directly
    related to the show (buying podcasting and streaming equipment, and funding
    arcade runs to new locations to review).

     

    My deepest thanks to Kevin Hoffman and Benjamin Broedel
    for their continuing support! Without your help, I would not be in the position
    I’m in!

     

    And now, I’m streaming live on Twitch!
    Twitch.tv/arcadeaddictbrian. If you’re a listener to the show, please do me a
    solid and drop me a follow over there. That helps grow the stream, and who
    knows, maybe I might become a big-time streamer! A guy can hope, right??

     

    Discord server coming soon!

     

    Hope to hear from you soon, and good gaming out there!
