  1. I guess I haven't been keeping up, I didn't even know this product was a thing... 😂
  2. Someone donated a small one to me a year or so ago. It had a few 8-tracks, which still play. I haven't tried the turn table yet... 🙂
  3. Thank you, it was a pleasure interviewing him. I just thought I would try something different rather than the same ol' reviews of his book.. 🙂
  4. My recent interview with book author Brian Matherne:
  5. I must be really naive, because I thought maybe he's just cleaning up house to stave off any legal issues that could arise in the future 🙂 I really do wish Al the best and hope everything works out fine for the community!
  6. I hope you are right but I am worried he will now have to bend to the will of Atari for everything as we have already seen demonstrated.
  7. What are your thoughts about this? https://www.gamesindustry.biz/atari-acquires-atariage
  8. I concur with everyones sentiments. Your podcasts have been heartwarming and fun to listen to. The key with this hobby is to not let it become a job so to speak, take your time with your projects and don't try to keep up with someone else's schedule. I have a friend who does lottery scratchers for youtube, and I am somewhat jealous how he can pump out videos with little to no research and certainly no script. I understand the decision and hope we hear from you in some capacity in the future!

  14. I really wasn't paying much attention to the time investment, which was quite a bit. I was splitting up the episodes and watching the series over the course of 4-6 weeks in my spare time, when nobody was around, so I could crank up the volume a bit. The last episode was when I really noticed... This thing is long... I think at this point I was just sucked into the ST universe and was just enjoying the ride. The segments with Joyce, Murray, Harbour, were enjoyable. I felt like the direction kept you interested all the concurrent story lines. Let's not forget about the Hell Fire Club.. and official Merch you can now purchase from Netflix/Metallica. Ha ha. I cannot see myself rocking one of those T-Shirts... lol.
  15. Respectfully, I disagree with your synopsis. I believe season 4 was the absolute best of the bunch, and I savored every episode. Perhaps you either love it or hate it, but it resonated with me. The characters IMO were all interesting, the separate story lines, although perhaps no transitions, were all tied together. The season evoked a full range of emotions. One could say I like it strictly for nostalgia reasons, but I don't believe that to be the sole reason. I think the largest plot issue with ST, is you have to suspend your disbelief, in the underworld/scary new alternate dimensions. The final episode was too long. It could have been split into two or three episodes. However,, it did have a great scene with Eddie Munson and Dustin, the Metallica scene. They totally rocked it and it was awesome. The other huge problem, is all of these "kids" are grown up IRL, playing much younger parts. Max for example looks 12 but in reality is 20 years old. That one blew me away. Hopefully they won't mess up the final season. Let's hope they keep up the momentum in the writing and give the series the send off it deserves.
  16. 45,340 I hope I did this right.. Just double clicked the game, and started playing in Stella...
  17. Thank you Justin, I appreciate it! Those deep dive reviews are a lot of work...
