Retroist Podcast

Back in 2009, I released a podcast about one of the greatest video games of all time, Pac-Man. Since releasing that I think I have learned a lot about podcasting, and Pac-Man, and I have wanted to redo it. So on this brand-new episode, I am heading back to the arcade to take a look at Pac-Man all over again. If you listened to the original episode, some of what you hear will be familiar, but I have added a lot of new information and the audio is a lot cleaner. One thing that did not make the transition is metagirl’s Top 5 list. So if you want to hear that gem, you will need to listen to the original. Before we embark on a journey through the vibrant world of this classic video game, allow me to share a cherished memory. Envision a younger version of myself, gripping a joystick, skillfully navigating the labyrinthine levels of Pac-Man on the bustling boardwalks of the Jersey Shore. These formative experiences with the game left a lasting impression, igniting a lifelong passion for this legendary arcade staple.
