We’d be GREAT at curating – we’d be the game curators… It’s a calamity among worlds as PODTOR WHOCAST and GAMER ERA collide for the very first time! Join Sam, David and Michel as they journey through the unknown – from the neon-soaked days of the 1980s, to the twisted nights of the wilderness years in the 1990s, all the way to the “Nu” dawn from the mid-2000s. There’s also discussion on Michel’s involvement in writing for Fallout London, and the fascinating parallel history of microcomputers in the UK. This episode became such a monster that one instalment couldn’t possibly contain it – look forward to a Part Two somewhere in your future!
