This week on RetroNots we take a bite out of Fonzie!

Hello everybody! Welcome to this week's episode of RetroNots. I'm your host Bob Mackie for this one. And let's go around the table really quick before I tell you about the topics you also hear. So who's to my right?

This is Michael Repara's Veggie Game of Apocalypse. It's a podcast. Awesome. It certainly is. It's a good podcast. I love it. Cat Bailey's TV editor at USGamer. It's a website.

It certainly is. What else is here? What I work for? Jeremy Parish, Fonzie, tastes like bril cream. It's gross.

Well, yeah, we're not actually going to take a bite out of Fonzie. Today's topic is a national treasure. I won't have any of this.

It's work on children's hospital is wonderful. Yeah, and the rest of the development. It's very peppercorn.

It's a sucker corn. Pepper corn is delicious. I would take a bite out of Fonzie if he were a peppercorn.

I love that I keep showing up at the end of these recording sessions because you two are so punchy. My God. We're just we're we're about. That's just me now that I'm on cocaine. Well, it's a USGamer salary. Yeah, anyone.

Okay, so let me tell you what we're talking about today. It is Obamacare free cocaine for everyone.

Death panels. So the reason I have Michael on this is because I think Veggie Game of Apocalypse is sort of like there's like a mini retro knocks in almost every episode because you guys do top five lists.

Yes. And you know a lot about gaming history. I think I mean they call you WikiParis because you have like a bottomless capacity for knowledge. Is that correct?

I like to think so. Yeah, I mean, that's why you're here today because today like we've been recording a long time. We fly Jeremy out here because we want to make the most use of our time.

You know, when we can to record these episodes in this is we never get we never get punchy when I'm just on Skype. No, no, but now we're really punchy.

But here's the thing like I wanted the last episode of this session to be more of a freeform thing. I think I am always to dependent on notes. I don't want to kind of you know challenge myself in a way, but I also am tired and I can only write so many notes for a single weekend of recording.

So today's episode is going to be about when when games are serious jump the shark. And actually I also wanted to say like Michael is here because if you search for him on the internet, the first thing that comes up is a picture of him wearing a legacy of the wizard t-shirt.

I'm not sure if you're aware of that Michael. Oh, yeah, no, I wasn't aware of that. That is number one. That's awesome that you have a legacy of the wizard t-shirt.

Yeah, well somebody there's a story behind that it was a fan that you love legacy of the wizard because you have good taste. Oh, I wish that were it. No, it was just a fan took the sprite because he thought it looked kind of like me and started doing these web comics called the adventures of tiny like. Yeah, yeah, so the father. Okay.

And so yeah, for for my birthday my wife made me a t-shirt. I assumed the father enough like the dog. Yeah, I was looking up how to spell your last name because I always forget. And the first thing that popped up is you in that t-shirt. I'm like, oh, it's perfect. Michael needs to be here more often because I don't know the legacy of the wizard t-shirt.

I should somebody finally gave me a copy of that game. I really should go back and play.
