WestofHouse Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Episode 9 was entertaining as usual. I would have elected to post the email interview with Casten online in written form rather than read his answers, though, especially since you said you have so many other interviews in the can already. That sounded awkward. But I enjoyed hearing his story and his experiences with the A8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ely Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 New Episode is out (no. 10) It weighs in at nearly 3 hours, so it's going to take a while to get through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ripdubski Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Whew! I thought the next one was going to be from VCFSE. Still trying to make it there. Sadly I can't listen until next week! Doh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savetz Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Episode 11 will be from VCFSE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 And since ep 10 was almost three hours, and since episode 11 will be at VCFSE 2, then it will be twice as long! 6 hours of the ANTIC podcast! Or not. I just wanted to see if I could give Kevin a heart attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atx4us Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I listened to episode #10 and as usual I find it to be interesting and informative. For a little while, we can immerse ourselves in retrospect of the days that used to be which were youthful, fun and adventurous. I especially appreciate everyone in the Atari community who dedicate their time and resources to create and to share new materials such as software, emulators, podcasts, magazines, and archives. It's clearly a labor of love and not for the money (what money?!). I also learn of new and interesting things discussed in the podcasts. The interview with Darren Doyle made me aware of the Atari Gamer magazine which I ordered and will take my time to enjoy every single page of Atari goodness. Thank you guys for the podcasts. They're getting better and better. Keep up the great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Episode #11 recorded live May 3d at Vintage Computer Festival Southeast 2.0 in Atlanta GA, is now available. This was a fun show to do. I hope we have a chance to do it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snicklin Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I'm just listening to it now, it's a good concept of doing it live, I am enjoying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snicklin Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 1400 listeners?!? That's really, really good. Could you try and send those people here? The more involved that they are, they may contribute later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 (edited) I just downloaded all the pod casts (except 9) from the site, I need to catch up on all of them, just listened to #1, enjoyable. But what happened to #9? It doesn't seem to be available for download... In episode 1, you guys refer to a new accelerator board in development using the 65C816 running at 16Mhz, I don't remember what you guy referred to it as being called, but I didn't recognize the name; was this the VBXE you were referring too? Or something else? I thought the VBXE had been out even before that first pod cast though, so if it's something else, is there a link to check it out? Also, why no mention of the VBXE? Is it talked about in later episodes? I saw no mention of it in the episode descriptions. Edited May 10, 2014 by Gunstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 @Snicklin, I really wish I knew how, we mention AA quite a bit. Heck, I couldn't even get the AA members who live in Atlanta to come to VCFSE. (Maybe I need new toothpaste?) I'll stop here, I don't want to go down the "chicken or the egg" rabbit hole. (Wow, talk about your mixed metaphors) It wasn't VBXE Gunstar, and I'll be darned it I can't remember it's name off the top of my head. I'll have to go and find it again. We've had an occasional hiccup or two with the shows disappearing on us. I'll see if I can get "ol' #9" to come back to the barn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found it, it's called the Rapidus and then there's it's counter part called the F7 which is an external PBI version.

Bloodcat Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I listened to the live show driving a good half hour to pick up another Atari 8 bit machine. A mighty 800! With 1050 drive, 410 Tape Drive, tons of mostly copied disks, and a full 48K of RAM with the kind not in the casing. A fun listen! I got so many of those trivia Qs right too! (Also tell your co host of Floppy Days fame that I would SOO love a beginner's book covering all the old micros! Figuring out just the A8s has been a bit of an adventure even using Atarimania and the FAQ and here! Heck, I basically have been chronicling my own adventures here: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/191496-my-atari-blog-the-adventures-of-a-new-usercollector/ and I tend to learn things randomly that are good and important, many of which I am sure are things long time users just take for granted!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 Episode 12 has escaped! It was last seen attempting to invade iTunes and other popular podcast venues. Listen at your peril! No, I didn't mean nonpareil. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I didn't mean nonpareil. You're late; I already caught that on the AtariAge front page earlier today. It looks like the file size has grown too, and not due to a higher sampling rate...

That would be me (Randy Kindig). I've had a few people reply that they would like to see the beginners book on various micros, but not a lot of feedback. I may do it anyway just because I would like it and am slowly building one up as I get out another machine from the day and learn about it! Thanks for the feedback!

Bloodcat Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 You are quite welcome! I keep slowly plugging away at my blog project when I have the time and desire. (Plus I went cray cray and joined in that RPGCodex project to review basically every major CRPG made. I am covering Ultima 1 and Defender of the Crown. Ultima 1 is finished and I just need time to get through my DOTC review. I have the screenies and have done some kibitzing with the project lead/editor. If anyone here wants to get involved: http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?forums/the-crpg-players-handbook.90/ SOMEONE COVER TELENGARD AND THE APSHAI GAMES SO I DON'T HAVE TO!)

Subby Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Funny. I was looking for something to play the other day and looked at my Telengard box. Then tried Nautilus instead. I'm not sure I have the patience to complete it. (Says the man 60+ hours into DQ8) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew of your podcast a few months ago but never got around to listening until a couple weeks ago. I binged on them all over the course of a week at work. I've been jonesing for the new one ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qix Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Great! Thanks! I've only recently acquired my first 8bit (I'm more of a console guy), but I have thoroughly enjoyed your podcast. Keep up the great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 And yes, at least once per episode I mess up. I think it was a "Freudian slip" this time though, I think JT thought business war was fun. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
