In this Patreon podcast, Ben & Michiel read and react to the e-mails that did not make the cut of the main show, making for a wild grab bag of topics to go over... from the Care Bears movie to the life and times of Noel Gallagher's favorite dinosaur.

40 years ago I was busy reviewing this bunch of joysticks. The Competition Pro was the one to buy, of course, but the Euromax Arcade was a very comfortable and excellent all-round alternative (although the Turbo version's top fire button was pretty useless TBH).

I made a quick video of my game room. Nothing fancy. More or less a time capsule of a great day. 😊

Proud to say I served as service technician for many of the cabinets and machines on display at SEGA's K1speed takeover for #SDCC! I've been working with 100 Yen Life for months on this, really honored to have been a part of it! 🙂

It was tough to get this one out for a variety of reasons (one that is disclosed near the end of the pod), but it's here and I am very happy that it is. Hope you enjoy!
This was an undertaking, but #videowizardsep31 is out! We got you covered for 8 hours of talk and sounds of the #arcadegames (Double Dragon II, Gain Ground, etc.), home games, pop music, metal, hiphop, movies (The Naked Gun) and TV of '88/'89's winter season.

Our #arcadegames focused time capsule podcast has become too big for a single Patreon post and we had to cut our early releases in half. And since the first half is already completely edited, subscribers can now listen to it!
