Both Leo and the site here got mentions this week during Listener Feedback.
 

 
 
The next episode will cover Xevious and Robtron 2084.

I wonder if Justin likes this idea. I should PM him.

A kid safe place in the forum could be a good thing if enough show up. I don't know what would be involved with that though. You would have to be a mod Leo!

With a bunch of kids in the community now, we should make an atari.io jr.  

LOL wtf!? Good god, man!!!     

You all have stuff I want, I don't have many extras right now, I hope to have some trade games soon!

Maybe this is a little gross to say but I do this all the time. I bet a lot of people do. Am I the only one? I think it's some kind of weird leftover strand of Neanderthal in our DNA that makes us curious about our own scent. And it's weird how you can cup it in your hand and keep it there while you scoop it up to your face, like the air doesn't really escape your hand. Sorry if that's gross but we're all guilty of it at some point. Just a random thought.

Yo Yo, stop sniffing your own gas and get on the chat!  Stat!

Wanted to post a picture of some Atari Games I have up for trade.   I'm seeking either an A/V modded 2600 or one that is in reliable condition, prefer sixer.  Crypts of Chaos for Atari 2600, and Tower of Doom for INTV.   But I'm a reasonable man if you have anything to offer talk to me!

That is so COOL! Not just the Intellivision, which is cool enough, but to see all of this unfold in the forums. I can't tell you guys how surreal it is to see this community take off like this. What a great bunch of people you are. 

Got my first trade in today & introduced my 13 y/o to the wonderful world of Intellivision!

Okay, here's what I have to offer up as trade bait. I would really like to give you guys a crack at them before I put them on Craigslist. If you want to work out a trade, message me: the worst I can do is say "no". (Not likely, lol). All carts may have discoloration and mild label wear; anything beyond that is noted. All games are gently cleaned & tested before going up for trade.

Let me know if you'd like to work something out! Thanks.

funny that you mention Cohen: I just made an iHeart Radio channel based around him! Really, I DO listen to (mostly) everything. It really, REALLY depends on mood, BAC, and current activities. My son is into 80's/90's techno/hardcore/trance, so I've been getting back into that a lot again lately. I've also been listening to "K-Billy's Super Sounds of the 70's" lately...

If you guys don't work anything out, I would like to be next in line to make an offer!!

I collect across multiple platforms & am always looking for new consoles, games & peripherals to add to my collection.

What, can't spare an E.T.?

Yars' Revenge, an amazing game outsold by (quite possibly) the worst port of an arcade game since cavemen drew pictures on walls... ????

One of my fall-back games whenever I need to just play something for the sake of playing something; classic!

Awesome podcast Willie!! 

We talk a look at Super Breakout the pack in game for the 4 port 5200 and Pac man that came with the 2 port 5200.  Listerner feedback, vintage 5200 article discussion and more!

Leonard Cohen is a God!!

I'm mostly into prog rock, but I like many genres.   I like bands like Haken, Yes, Dream Theater, Flying Colors, Spock's Beard to name a few.
 
I'm also a big fan of classic jazz and swing, prog metal if the singing is clean, and Leonard Cohen (because he transcends all genres.

I do love metal, Hank Williams the 3rd, can't believe Hank 3 or Ween didn't make the list.I also love old school rap and metal.
oh, and Joe Jackson! Oh and Beastie Boys and Tribe tried called Quest!
