Roarke, friend and fellow creator in the retro gaming scene was recently in a horrific car accident, that's left him in the hospital for over a month.  In true bad-ass fashion, he's been recovering and is able to stand...even though there was talk of amputation, or him not making it at all.  I wanted to livestream with him to hear his story, catch up and see what's next!

Today, I’m joined by René from db Electronics, Tianfeng and Rattboi to discuss the implementations and uses of open source hardware and software.  All of us are huge fans of open source and have participated (and created) many open projects in the scene.  While most of our discussion will be focused on the positivity of open source, we’ll also be addressing some of the misconceptions and more complicated topics of what’s “open”, what’s “freeware” and what’s theft. https://twitter.com/db_himself https://twitter.com/Tian_Feng44 https://twitter.com/rattboi This podcast is also available as a video.  More information in the main post:  https://www.retrorgb.com/open-source-roundtable-discussion.html Please consider supporting this channel via monthly support services, tips, or even just by using our affiliate links to purchase things you were already going to buy anyway, at no extra cost to you:  https://www.retrorgb.com/support.html   T-Shirts:  https://www.retrorgb.com/store.ht

Here's the audio from a live podcast / interview I did with RetroTINK creator Mike Chi.  The audio isn't as good as usual, since we did it live with no post-processing, but it was still a really interesting chat and we dug into a bunch of "behind the scenes" inner workings of the amazing new RetroTINK 5x.  Links to the video and more info are available in the main post: https://www.retrorgb.com/interview-with-retrotink-5x-creator-mike-chi.html --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/retrorgb/support
