Dan Wood and me Ravi Abbott. And here we are. Episode number 32, we've been doing the show eight months now. That's insane. We're dedicated, aren't we done? Every Friday. Four months it will be an entire year. Wow. We've done the retro hour. So, guys, we really appreciate tuning into the show every single single week we are still loving doing the show as well

and judging by the iTunes reviews this week you're still loving listening to it as well yeah yeah we've

had about five or six new ones so if you can keep adding to them it'd be great because uh you've always

got some kind words to say on iTunes and it all helps in the grand scheme of things obviously

totally now maybe you've just found us on iTunes recently. The show comes out every Friday. Ravi and I run through the big stories that have been making the headlines in the world of retro. And then, in the second half of the show, we hand over to a very special guest. Now, I think it's fair to say, the guests that we've got on this week has probably dealt with some of the biggest names in the world of media.

Totally. This guy, David Fox, he founded Lucas Arts Games,

which is basically the gaming division for George Lucas.

So, you know, this is massive, all the old old game Zapmachan, you remember that? Labyrinth game as well he worked on, didn't he? Yeah, the Scum Engine. Well, this guy was in there, I mean, you know, he was one of the founders of Lucasfilm games. He was there pretty much from day one, really, wasn't he, when it started? And we've got some amazing stories coming up. Him playing video games with George

Lucas who it turns out was actually a bit of an avid game designer actually who's pretty good at it.

Yeah and so was Spielberg as well. Now you've got to hang around because we're going to hear the

story about Spielberg's special custom hack for the Star Wars arcade game. Oh yeah and of course

it's going to be Star Wars theme. Yeah absolutely so, so he's going to be on The Retro Hour in around half an hour from now. Just for all getting to the stories this week as well, if you haven't liked our Facebook page, I think we're up to nearly 700 fans on there now. Yeah, yeah, we should be getting more, though. We get more listens than that. Absolutely, so if you haven't liked it on Facebook yet, links are on the website, the retro hour.com, or just search for The Retro Hour podcast. We post loads of stuff in there during the week, loads of nice memories. Yeah, there was that good one about zip drives. I totally forgotten about zip drives.

up just reminded me of it.
