The Retrograde Retrospective (We're Changing!)

Author: Andrew Bascom and Mikey Ehrenworth September 24, 2024 Duration: 1:31:18

It's time to turn a new page, D-Pads!

This is the week we usher in a new change to The Retrograde: A Video Game Podcast!

It's been an unbelievable 6 (plus) years, but we've decided to make a change to our regular weekly main feed episodes. You'll still get all the Retrograde content you love, but at non-regular intervals, and in slightly different formats.

To celebrate, this week we're doing a full retrospective on all 333 previous episodes of the podcast you've all come to know and love.

Thanks to all of our listeners and viewers who have supported us over the years!

This podcast has grown far larger than we ever could have expected, and we have you to thank for that.

We're opening up our complete backlog of episodes on all podcast platforms, too! So if there's an episode you missed, now is your chance to check it out.

This is NOT goodbye! just the beginning of a new era for your two favourite Retrograders.

Keep us in your hearts, and in your feeds.

feeds.

Remember those games you spent hours on as a kid, the ones that felt like perfect worlds? The Retrograde: A Video Game Podcast is a weekly conversation between hosts Andrew Bascom and Mikey Ehrenworth that digs into exactly that feeling. They don't just offer a simple review; instead, they revisit the titles that defined a generation-both the celebrated classics and the notorious flops-to ask a tougher question. With the clarity of adulthood, do these childhood favorites actually hold up? The discussion naturally blends personal nostalgia with a critical eye, often wandering into related pop culture from film and TV, all delivered with a casual, comedic tone. Listening to this podcast feels like hanging out with friends who share your specific, deep-cut gaming memories, debating whether that legendary 10/10 score was ever truly earned or if it's time for a more honest reassessment. It's less about definitive rankings and more about the fun and sometimes painful process of looking back.
