S1500 Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Got another poddies award mention. It even made its way into the title! Coast to Coast Pinball Episode 55. The 2nd person in the world that actually likes my gravely voice. At the end of Nate's show, Nate sometimes plays a soundbyte from something and puts a commentary(like MST3K) on it. Guess what soundbyte he did? Yes, the poddies themselves! Man, he really wanted that golden poddie award. Love it!

RJ Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Arcade Outsiders has a call-in guest who tips off the MN based host that somewhere in Central/NW MN there's a barn full of coin-ops. Hope they follow up on that (& give directions). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 Crude reviews... 1 More Castle - Hosts can be sometimes obnoxious. Light discussion on retro gaming. What saves it is pre-crash talk.. C- Retro Relapse - Main host sounds like he’s asleep. Almost too laid back. The exact opposite of the Elliot guy on 1 More Castle. C Cartridge Freaks - A new podcast that I honestly can’t remember anything about. RetroObscura - The podcast is a bit brief, but talks about lesser-known games, which gives it it’s unique appeal. C+ Pinheadz Podcast - Ignore all the Aussie pinside drama. This podcast has good chemistry between the down-under hosts and good production values. B+ https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/pinheadz-pinball-podcast/id782889884?mt=2 Vintage Volts - Great podcast on old school electronics, where pinball & video games naturally bleed into the topic.

ferghead Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I saw that Retronauts' latest episode is titled "Pre-Video Arcade Gaming." If they had trouble with the Atari 2600, I'm afraid to listen to this one. It's a pocket ep, so it's only a half hour. Elliot? Do you mean Eric Bailey? I couldn't take the screeching anymore. Coming from Mr. Excitement over here. That and sometimes the Retro Showdown devolves into are not-are too territory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tolerate some of it(heck, sometimes I'm like that), but eh, little too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Next week, The Retro League is starting a series "foreign exclusives" about retro games that werent released stateside. Hughes listed just about every retro system I've ever heard of, starting w/ the 2600. Should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 Listening to Throwback Reviews now. Was looking for the Blues Brothers episode(#1 all time fave), but found the arcade episode instead. One of the panelists is talking about starting an arcade-based podcast. So yeah..

S1500 Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) Really enjoyed the Blues Brothers episode. Was elated to hear Rob wants a 2014 poddie. Heh. I remember on reddit's GTA5 talking about some car falling from the sky to the ground and commenting "I always loved you", and thankfully someone understood the reference.

Flack Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Listening to Throwback Reviews now. Was looking for the Blues Brothers episode(#1 all time fave), but found the arcade episode instead. One of the panelists is talking about starting an arcade-based podcast. So yeah.. That was Vic Sage, a regular over at the Retroist and also an employee at the Arkadia Retrocade in Fayetteville, Arkansas. I don't think the show has been released yet but I know he's still working on it. There are lots of arcade game-related podcasts at the moment so I'm hoping Vic goes at least a little bit into what it's like to operate a retro arcade in modern times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Arcade Outsiders- outdoes their prev. ep. w/ a guest who owns an instant arcade after discovering a private collector's personal stash in Southern CA (wonder if SoCal knew about this?) He rented a truck & made 3 trips, grabbed lots of older stuff. Amazing & incredible story. If you dont subscribe, it's at least worth listening to this ep. alone.

S1500 Posted January 18, 2014 Author Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) It's an explosion of new podcasts for 2014! Ten Pence Arcade - Found this one via No Quarter.

RJ Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Heard about that on NQ too, just didnt follow up on it. Sounds British & didnt feel in the mood to hear " 'ey, wot wot" this & "cheerio, cor blimey" that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds British & didnt feel in the mood to hear " 'ey, wot wot" this & "cheerio, cor blimey" that. I just listened to the Zoo Keeper episode. I gave it an honest try, but couldn't follow what they were saying. I've watched tons of the BBC, and still was having a problem understanding things. The audio is rather hollow, which hurts it. Feels like you are just overhearing a conversation between 2 brits. D+ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2586 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Hey guys. We finally restarted Genesis Gems this week on Podomatic.com and iTunes. It's good to be back in the swing of things! Here's our podomatic page, if you'd like to give it a listen: http://genesisgemspodcast.podomatic.com/.

S1500 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 Last night's download: literally 24 hours of new content to listen to. And that's not already 2 episodes I listened to via my celly this week. Retro Obscura released a fleshed-out episode 3 that talked about some fun obscurities, such as laserdisc games. Revised grade: B+ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Yes Ebert I agree- RO's latest ep. is leaps & bounds over his first couple tries. Comfy length (er, hmm), no immature "Mom's not home" cussing, & including Hughes from Retro League didnt hurt either. Let's hope he maintains his present course, he could take home a Poddie nomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 The Pinball Arcade Barcade podcast has an RSS feed. Oddly enough, it won't let me download ep 4, but it will let me play it: http://shoutengine.com/ThePinballArcadeFansBarcadePodcast.xml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the latest batch of 'casts I'm listening to, this is the only one I'm actively enjoying.. 1. The 'doge' meme reference 2. "somebody get this freakin' duck away from me" - H*R lives on 3. The quip about Pinball Soul 4. Idea for Burnout 3's crash mode for next Hexa. Non-gamers even enjoy Burnout's crash mode due to the craziness. 5. Yes, the Gottleib collection for pinball has messed up tilt sensitivity. One minor nudge = tilt. At least on the PS2 version. Ruined it. Let's hear more episodes, chrisbd.

S1500 Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 thanks, we've been away far too long. You could have each panelist do their own segment, just promise us you won't do anything on WebKins. Who was your recent recruit that was the pinball expert?

RJ Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 The latest Intellivisionaries, besides an excellent nostalgic Tommy Tallarico interview, has me REALLY interested in Bomb Squad. I wasnt a fan of PS2 Intellivision Lives (or the Intelly itself for that matter) but now Im contemplating buying it on the DS. & now tonight I can listen to Retro Obscura for an opinion/review. Also, Intellivisionary host Nurmix guests on ANTIC.podcast. Awesomeness readings off the chart! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
