Ten Pence Podcast #169 - Lode Runner

[shaunholley]

The Dynamic Trio are back! 'Trio' you say? Why yes; Me, Vic, and THE GAME. Sometimes games are more important than people, but I definitely don't think so this time. That being said, one man's Bubble Bobble is another man's Bionic Granny (C64 - google it). So listen, enjoy, and be at one with all three of us.

Feedback :

Apologies for the long time with no feedback. The listeners are out here and still loving the podcast.

The last nearly two years now have been tough on everyone. Haven't had as much time to join in on the games at all, very disappointed in myself.

The Sega Astro City that was enjoyed by many in the office was a "do not touch covid zone", i have brought it home and converted a shed to "home office" where it now resides.

Hoping to get into this months game of Super Pang.

Great to hear about Vics move to bonny Scotland, hope it all goes well for you and the job perks up a bit Love hearing about your tinkerings.

Also Shaun, your YouTube channel is amazing. Best of luck with your new job and fitness regime, dont let the biscuits overtake you.

Also to note I've been watching Charlie_Far and SullDaBull on Twitch along with others.

Good community of players and like minded retro people in there.

Keep up the super smashing great work, look forward to this podcast the most every month.

Happy Nearly
Christmas Shaun and Vic!

Conscious
that I’ve not left feedback for some time, so let’s address that right now….

What’s happened???
It used to be informative and engaging with the right balance of factual
information and light hearted entertainment. Now it’s just a farce, with idiots
talking nonsense and generally just acting the fool.

Hold on…STOP
THE PRESS… that’s my Top Gear feedback, not my Ten Pence feedback! Let’s try
that again….

Thanks for
another year of Arcade Podcast goodness. A really good mix of games this year
and 10 of the 12 games I had never played before – which is what the podcast is
really about – discovering those hidden gems – or not so in the case of Frenzy
(sorry Vic, I know I’m in the minority here, but it just didn’t click with me).
Probably Darius was the highlight for me – even though I was pretty pants at
it.

Great work
on the news features…. Probably like many who listen, I follow the latest happenings in the Arcade world, but you always have a few snippets of
information that I wasn’t aware of.

The quiz is
still ridiculously too hard for a mere mortal like me, but impressive to see
how much you guys know.

Congratulations
on the move oop north Vic, hope things work out for you in Scottyland and you
will still make it darn sarf for the occasional meet/event.

And good
luck in your new job Shaun… hopefully with weekends freed up, I will get to
catch up with you more at Arcade Club and events in 2022. Maybe we should have a 10Pence meet next year - I'd love to meet some more of the listeners - perhaps get to ask Eddhorse why the long face, take one of Sull's whippets for a walk or just chat about why Neil 20to5 didn't make it to the meet.

In summary, still loving the castpod and hopefully
long may it continue. HURRAH!

Thanks for all that lovely feedback, Jim.
It's not easy being this stupid.

And also, thanks Ed.
As we always say, typing with hooves can't be easy, but you've done a stellar job there!
