Retro Smashed Video Game Podcast

Retro Smashed Video Game Podcast

Some friends hang out, drink a few beers, insult each other a little bit, and eventually talk about retro video games! Play along with our game of the week where we test our knowledge of useless pop culture trivia. We go over some background info about the video game of the week as well as some of our memories of it. We then finish the show with some Happy Time shout-outs to anniversaries of video game releases and other historical pop culture landmarks.

Let's all go to the lobby and grab ourselves a snack!  June starts off movie month where we start with movie video game adaptations.  Between talking about our memories (and some lost memories) of some video game movies, we also talk about the time Ricky saved Andy's dad's life, the time some murderers showed up on a collector's card, and the time Ricky lost $100.

Weldy's mom joins us for a special "slightly off a week" Mother's Day episode.  She always joins him to play Streets of Rage on his Mother's Day stream, so we figured we'd do a Streets of Rage episode with her!  She doesn't stay for the whole episode, but she stays long enough to hear some McDonald's stories, as well as telling us some baby Weldy stories.

Brian Reynolds of https://thebridgeteachers.com joins us as our first non-intimate friend group special guest to talk about our top 7 videogame weapons!  Ricky finally makes into the studio as well.


Brian teaches us a bit of the card game bridge and talks about his website, we gatekeep what is considered a furry, and we have a quick argument of what is a weapon vs what an ability is.

Cranky here.  These podcasts are always a bunch of guys talking nonsense, thinking they're funny?  They're no Skidda and Kaboing in the Mornings.  Back in my day we didn't have fancy podcast descriptions.  We had to hope the radio played our favorite song, and get the tape deck ready to record.  We always missed the first few notes, then caught a bit of the announcer talking about the weather or traffic right after t...

The boys are back for a second helping of a shit sandwich.  Maybe this one will go better than the last one???

Weldy puts a list together of 25 videogame developers so Ricky and Andy try to blindly put it in an order that makes little to no sense.  Ricky talks about his time as a President, Weldy wants to play an Oregon Trail set in the world of D&D, and Andy vents about work again.

Tired of those run-of-the-mill mascots like Mario and Sonic?  How about a ranking of some XBOX and PlayStation ones instead?  Ricky finally returns, Andy reminisces of the party house, and we possibly anger some of our fans with our ranking choices. 😅
