I actually used to like that podcast, but got turned off of it real hard a couple of years ago after increasingly strident and bizarre anti-Obama rants began creeping in for no readily apparent or useful reason. But, you know, its their podcast and they can say anything they want. I just didn't understand why it was necessary to so bluntly alienate a portion of the retro gaming audience based on differing political viewpoints. So, whatever, I didn't put up a fuss online or post a negative iTunes review, I just unsubscribed and that was that.
    Never heard of them before, but I find it refreshing that they don't refrain to "stridently" and "bizarrely" rant against The Messiah. I mean, it's not like anti-George W. Bush rants have ever been a thing, right? lol...

    On topic: I have been a Retro Gamer subscriber since 2009 and while I generally enjoy the magazine, there is much room for improvement IMO (according to my taste in videogames, of course!). I get that they are from the UK, but I couldn't care less about European 8 and 16 bit computers of yore. Nor am I interested in the homebrew scene. I wish Retro Gamer (or Retro, for that matter) would focus more on the collecting and Japanese import scènes (console wise). Please keep us updated.
