Hello, Retrinauts listeners. This is Bob Mackie coming to you via an iPhone in Youngstown, Ohio in case you couldn't hear the despair in my voice.

0:18.0

I'm just recording this little preamble to let you know about the episode you're about to listen to. It's not really a disclaimer. It kind of is the fact of the matter is it came out a little rougher than I intended.

0:29.0

Chris Antista came to me with an idea about putting together a little quiz about video game sound effects, which is a fantastic idea.

0:36.0

Unfortunately, during the recording, which we did in his bedroom studio, the computer he was using was suffering from some major technical issues and it took him roughly an hour to get it in this state that he recorded the podcast in.

I have yet to edit it though, so it could turn out perfectly fine. I'm anticipating it to be a little rougher than I wanted to be.

0:55.0

I'm just letting you guys know that and we'll be back to our normal dry selves next week. I also want to say thanks again to Chris Antista and Henry Gilbert for setting this up.

Thanks to them in general on the entire LaserTime Podcast Network, go to lasertimepodcast.com and show them your love.

1:11.0

They've been an absolutely great resource in terms of guests and knowledge. I love being on their show. I love doing talking Simpsons and it's been great to collaborate with them since I found out about them in 2013.

1:23.0

It was either put up this rough episode or not put up an episode because again, I'm on vacation and I have no means of recording anything while I'm out here.

1:32.0

I think it'll be worth it. I think you'll have fun listening to it and if not, like I said, we'll be back to our normal educational selves. I considered education.

1:40.0

We'll be back to our normal educational selves next week. I guess we can say that. Anyhow, I'm going to stop rambling and I'll let you listen to the episode.

Please enjoy this episode of Retro Nots Micro.

1:52.0

Hello everybody and welcome to another episode of Retro Nots Micro. I am your host Bob Mackie coming to you not live but pre-recorded from the LaserTime bedroom studio and who else is here with me?

2:21.0

Chris of our ATSTEM. Henry Gilbert, hey, this is normally an educational show but for once I decided we're not going to learn anything. We're just going to have fun.

2:30.0

We might learn something via audio cues but today's we're going to do a little quiz that Chris has assembled. Chris tells us about what this quiz is all about.

2:38.0

Oh boy, I wish I prepared a shum spiel here but this is just a very simple game show. I have about a billion game jingles.

2:47.0

I'm going to ask you if you can guess what they are. First person to chime in, Henry versus Bob, everybody listening, take your bets, see how good these guys are going to do.

2:56.0

We should bet on patreon.com. If I wouldn't give to the Retro Nots Patreon.

3:01.0

Most of these I'm going to say right up front are Nintendo. I apologize deeply to Amiga, Armour, Stride, and I'm going to be speccing.

3:09.0

No FM Towns Marty is not represented here.

3:13.0

So I want to say I'm playing for leukemia just like Melissa Joan Hart and that other guy. Oh man, that's a deep cut on Retro Nots.
