Retro Smashed Video Game Podcast
Some friends hang out, drink a few beers, insult each other a little bit, and eventually talk about retro video games! Play along with our game of the week where we test our knowledge of useless pop culture trivia. We go over some background info about the video game of the week as well as some of our memories of it. We then finish the show with some Happy Time shout-outs to anniversaries of video game releases and other historical pop culture landmarks.
Episode 101 - Create-a-Character
The boys increase their genital slider and reduce their intelligence slider as the beers slider increases throughout the episode this week.
Ricky missed out on the episode so we got André the Giant to join us instead, we also talk about Antique Roadshow, and Weldy's favorite 80's drama TV show.

Episode 100 - Patreon Exclusive - Draft From a Hat Pt2: Electric Bugaloo
Our live episode was a blast, but due to the hangovers we didn't have enough time to edit it. Check our YouTube channel in the near future to catch it!
In the mean time, enjoy an episode Weldy and Andy recorded back around the 50th episode. Weldy brings his Draft From a Hat back where they discuss a quick round-fire of topics including which character you would have a drink with and what game abilities you would like to have.

Episode 99 - Rare
Cranky Kong here again. They couldn't come up with anything more clever than bringing me back? Luckily I don't have much else going on. They told me they'd pay me with 99 bananas, but I think they messed up because they gave me a bottle of expired banana juice that made me pass out after drinking it.
These goof balls are still trying to get a sponsor? Maybe they should try something that isn't perverted, then again they start talking about messing with a friend of mine, Birdo. Birdo and I are more of acquaintances though since Birdo playe...
