According to episode 41, both Dustin and his mom believe the episodes can sometimes be too long, but I can’t disagree more. The only way these episodes could possibly be “too long”, is if they managed to find an additional 10 hours in your typical 24 hour earth day, and still I would probably find a way to listen to and enjoy every minute of it. Keep up the amazing work!!!!

Dustins mom

Fun take on 8 and 16 bit games!  Good quality podcast with a group of good friends and you can tell.  Great information on old games that’s fun to listen to.  If you like retro gaming this podcast is for you!
