Hello and welcome to the Retro Hour podcast, episode number 384, your weekly dose of retro gaming and technology news with me, Dan Wood.

Me Ravi Abbott and me Joe Fox.

And great to be joining us for another geek out session for the next hour-ish, talking about classic video games, bringing it up to speed of what's been happening in the world of retro from over the last week. And basically, if you recognise this sound,

this is the podcast for year. And we've got to say, happy 25th birthday to Windows 98

that celebrate his birthday this week. I saw Windows. Yeah, they tweeted you and they actually said, oh, thanks for remembering. That was quite nice. Quite nice from a Twitter account with, I think it was 8.5 million followers. So maybe you've discovered us through that. Welcome to the show. This is what we do every Friday. A lot of roundtable chat about what's been happening in retro over the last week. So you know, we save with the effort of Googling around and all that stuff. We do it for you. And then we bring you an interview in the second half of the podcast. And my word, have we got a good one this week? Oh, I love it when we get pioneers on and people that, you know, we've wanted to have on the podcast since day one.

And, uh, Dan, you've absolutely smashed it with this week's guest.
