  • From Space Quest to SpaceVenture: Ken Allen Talks Music

    From Space Quest to SpaceVenture: Ken Allen Talks Music
    Dec 9 2025
    Composer Ken Allen shaped the soundscape of an entire Sierra era, from Space Quest to Kings Quest, and that unmistakable Sierra logo fanfare burned into every retro-gamer's brain. Now he’s back with a full new soundtrack for SpaceVenture, and we go deep into how it all came together. In this episode, Ken walks through the craft behind his new score, the evolution from MT-32 to modern orchestral libraries, the stories behind iconic Sierra tracks, the surprising inspirations for SpaceVenture’s music, and what it’s like to reunite with the Two Guys from Andromeda after decades. Expect anecdotes, technical insight, nostalgia, and plenty of behind-the-scenes lore from one of the genre’s defining composers. Mangia! Some corrections. - Beats Per Minute (not beats per second - that wouldbe crazy). - Composer for Silent Running was Peter Schickle, not Jerry Goldsmith. - Kazoo Orchestra is on the 2001 Theme and synth was used Blue Danube.

    This week Anna and Paul sit down with legendary Sierra animator and artist, Al Eufrasio! They go behind the scenes at Sierra on what it was like to work there, how projects were conceptualized and executed, and they also chat a bit about animation, including where to find good, modern animation. It's an illuminating conversation so cozy up and Mangia!

    Quest For Glory II: Trial By Fire - Review
    Nov 12 2025

    This week Anna and Paul played Quest For Glory 2: Trial By Fire and as per the rules of podcasting, they're going to talk into microphones, at you, for quite some time—largely staying on topic while occasionally wandering into a narrative side quest, as to create a more layered listening experience for you, the listener. I have no idea what I'm even saying at this point, Mangia!

  • The PRGE Tapes: Conversations from the Portland Retro Gaming Expo

    The PRGE Tapes: Conversations from the Portland Retro Gaming Expo
    Oct 28 2025
    Anna hits the floor at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, or as she and her late friend Roberta always called it, the PGRE. It’s a weekend overflowing with nostalgia, laughter, and the kind of serendipity that only happens when you pack decades of gaming history under one roof. This episode brings you the voices and moments that defined the show: Al Lowe sharing stories from his Sierra days, Lori and Corey Cole reminiscing about Quest for Glory, George Sanger talking music and memory, and dozens of creators, collectors, and fans who keep the golden age of adventure games alive. From the FMV Museum and the Error 47 concert to spontaneous hallway interviews and late-night reflections, this is a trip through time and community. Whether you were there in person or living vicariously through your headphones, you’ll feel the hum of the crowd, the passion of the fans, and the unmistakable presence of Roberta woven throughout it all. Press play, step onto the show floor, and let the stories roll. Mangia! Here's all the interviews in order, along with links!
