I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Clint Cronin: Jiu Jitsu Black belt, instructor, IT professional and retro gaming enthusiast into console restorations, repairs and no cut / reversible modification.  This was more of a casual chat / podcast than a formal interview, but I really enjoyed discussing everything from our favorite new stuff in the retro gaming scene, his impressive history as a martial arts pro and everything in-between.  I hope we get to do this again at some point, as there's a bunch of stuff I'll be following up on, that I'd be interested in his perspective.  The interview is also available as a video, more info here:  https://www.retrorgb.com/podcast-with-clint-cronin.html Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/clintcronin/ Twitter:  https://twitter.com/clintcronin Podcast Website:  http://clintcronin.com/ Please consider supporting this channel via monthly support services, tips, or even just by using our affiliate links to purchase things

I recently did an interview with Shank: A console-to-handheld modder, YouTuber and member of the new company 4 Layer Tech; The team who created the ForeverPak 64. It was impressive to hear the lengths Shank and his friends had gone through to reverse engineer the Wii and to make brand new products for it! I really think anyone who loves tech would enjoy this interview and hearing the behind the scenes perspective!

Here's an interview with Tom Happ, creator of the games Axiom Verge 1 & 2. Both are some of my favorite Metroidvania games and it was an honor to be able to interview the creator!

Here's an interview with David Haywood aka MameHaze - A 20+ year veteran of the MAME development scene. This was a casual conversation about David's history in the scene, how development's changed from 1999 until now and just the overall state of the MAME project. It was an absolute pleasure talking with him and I hope this is the first of many chats like this one. The interview is available as audio and video files attached to this post and will be on all major podcast networks.
