Video Game History with Steven L Kent (Part One)

We were joined by Steven L Kent this week. Steven is someone who hasn’t just written about the history of video games, he has lived it; meeting some of the biggest names in the industry. Steven was gracious enough to share some of his time with us. We discussed his books (The Ultimate History of Video Games volumes 1 & 2), his favourite games ever, and the best consoles of the 90s.

The Games we Love with Lord Nerdy Cephalopod

Laughter, nonsense, and absurdity abounds in episode 130 of the podcast. We were joined by Lord Nerdy Cephalopod (aka Brian) to talk about the games we’ve been playing, what he would take with him to the Thunder Plains, and the game series that we love to come back to.

Locked On with Jason Maddison

Jason Maddison (Technical Director at Lost in Cult) joined us to talk about the [lock-on] journal, his piece for volume 001 (titled I Have Lived) and how it rang true to our childhoods, and about how the technobabble used in discussing video games and consoles is utter nonsense. All this with a lot of pro-wrestling terms thrown in for good measure
