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.
