The Blue Blur himself has FINALLY made it onto The Retro Blast Podcast and it's long overdue!

SEGA found itself in a stranglehold in the early 90s as Nintendo dominated the video game market in the United States... And they were almost out of options.

Until a little blue hedgehog with super speed AND a super 90s attitude hit the scene and changed the video game landscape forever.

The Gamersician himself is back to join Host Patrick Brickhouse for a nostalgic conversation about what it was like to be a kid in the 90s when Sonic hit the scene, what we love about the game to this day, and OF COURSE, the music—With a very special section in the later half of the episode where we discuss comments from Patrons about their favorite OG Sonic songs and memories!

Guest Host: Paul, The Gamersician

It's 2002. I'm 17 years old...

I just landed a job at FuncoLand at the height of the 6th console gen.

In this 'Memories' episode, I'm going to take you with me as I revisit what it was like to be a video game store employee during better days. You'll learn about what working there was like, but also the experiences and memories I carry with me to this day, and even some Patron submitted stories!

This is one of the biggest projects I've ever produced, and I hope some of it resonates with your life a little bit too.

It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's...

...a bad video game. But why is it so bad? And why did we play this when this show is all about GOOD memories?

You'll have to listen to find out.
