Show notes
Welcome to the second episode of our podcast. Today Kris and Andi head over to Area 52 of the Nerdist Camp, just behind the toilet block, and climb into the time machine to help us party like it's 1980(ish).
Stepping out of the doors into another era, we discuss our first computers and consoles, early games that were a formative part of our tastes, and what we're playing today.
We also discuss our current reading, listening and streaming TV, as well as the current pile of Blu Rays.
We also review Steve McNeil's wonderfully funny book on the history of video games Hey Listen!
