    Zapped to the Past - new Commodore 64 podcast

    Hello all.

    A friend and I have just released the first episode of our new podcast, Zapped to the Past, where we review games that were covered in each issue of Zzap! 64 starting from issue one.

    If you fancy giving it a listen, you can find it in the usual places

    Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0PCcgt...urce=copy-link

    Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas...t/id1551619912

    Google - https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aH...VkLnhtbA&ep=14

    or anywhere you get your podcasts from.

    The website is zappedtothepast.com

    Feel free to give it a listen and if you do, let me know what you think.

        I’ve always wanted a podcast that did exactly that. Subbed!

          We've got 14 episodes recorded so far so we're in this for the long haul. Hope you enjoy it.

            That's awesome. A lot of the podcasts I enjoy died after a handful of episodes.

              Each issue is in two parts and we've been recording since November on a good schedule. We have every intention of getting ourselves through every issue and pretty much all games... Even though so many of them are awful!

                Jaz Rignall has been doing some of that in the Zzap annuals and Freeze fanzine iirc.

                      To all who have listened, be aware that the first two episodes, that's May and June, were recorded before we restructured the podcast. We didn't think we would talk quite so much and ended up with well over three hours of material that we didn't want to get rid of so we split rach ep into two parts. From ep 3 onwards, we realised this and structured both parts accordingly.

                        Only 15 minutes in on ep1 but I already like it, particularly the suggestion that people who own space stations should give free docking computers to everyone

                          Be cheaper than clearing up all that space debris from all those crashed ships...

                            Ep2 Pt1 is out now for anyone who wants to give it a listen. Theatre Europe, Super Pipeline 2, M.U.L.E., On Court Tennis and more in this episode. We do actually like some of them.
