Retro Hangover is a podcast in which your hosts, Shane Selterre and Chris Coplien, spotlight a different piece of video game history (be it a specific title, console, company, or person) each episode. They provide a brief background, discuss their personal experiences, as well as their favorites aspects of the item in question. Oh, and there's beer.
We guess it's Spooptober in June, 'cause we're talking about the most violent ways characters bite the big one in games.

A racing game starring the Blue Blur and his buddies seems like a no-brainer slam dunk, right? Right?

Who would've guessed a 1995 video game about a robot space rabbit would foretell the battle against the Boomers hoarding resources at the expense of everyone else? Uh, we mean... man, that crazy Baron Aloha sure is an outlandish villain not at all grounded in reality!

We're not necessarily saying it's prophetic or anything, but when popular media gives us the likes of pro-wrestler-turned-mayor Mike Haggar, pro-wrestler-turned-governor Jesse Ventura, and pro-wrestler-turned-president Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho we just kinda feel like maybe it's saying something. Does our special guest, Phil of the Deleted Saves Podcast, agree with our wrestling-to-politics pipeline theory? Find out!

Who doesn't love a bunch of objectively useless crap to put on their shelves? Certainly not gamers; we are all about that junk.

As one group of modern maestros once put it: the kids aren't alright. Sometimes it's not a horrifying eldritch entity or a horde of flesh-eating zombies that are the problem; sometimes it's just a kid with a serious grudge. Here are our top picks for younglings that we wouldn't have minded Anakin "taking care of."
