Fantastic! love hearing from Stuart and Thomas!
On the front lines in the march towards unbelievable idiocy in the name of inclusivity and representation. No meaningful conversation about video games. Unsubscribed.
Not even a Contra fan and I listened to the whole 3 hours 42 minutes! Great hosting from Stuart, and an excellent panel. I look forward to more with you all! Cheers.

Wikipedia in audio form.
Man, this show really fell off once they started changing the hosts. Imagine watching Seinfeld for nearly a decade and enjoying the characters and their interactions, then suddenly they decide to completely change the cast every few episodes. Tf? At least there's still the back catalog 🤷🏼
Jeremy almost sounded human in this one. Baby steps..
They totally gaslighted Stu about the Links in this one.
I love the episodes with Bob Mackey. He's so annoying.
Great hosting Stuart 👍
Really love how they made the first two Taito episodes exclusive to their Patreon, but this one isn't. If they're going to make Patreon-exclusive episodes, they could at least have some consistency.
Limited Run Games is trash. They recently fired one of their employees because of the accounts she follows on Twitter. Hopefully they never do another episode with these idiots again.
Excellent podcast! Stuart Gipp is my favourite presenter. Keep up the good work!
What a great episode. It's amazing how good this podcast can be when the presenters have a sense of humour.
whoa whoa no mention of Fable?? shame on you
Lorenzo was great, he should be a recurring character. Also Radiator Historia was the hardest I've laughed in a long time.
Really enjoyed you hosting Stuart. Thanks

Really not a fan of locking popular topics behind the Patreon paywall. Instead of making me want to support the show on Patreon, it makes me not want to.
why tf is bob saying sakimoto? I feel like I'm having a stroke. It's always been Sakamoto Jesus wtf.
