Retro Ridoctopus

Kids of the 80s and 90s will remember the experience of walking into an arcade with a sense of awe and wonder! What new machines had arrived since your last visit? And of those, which was going to grab you attention first? For this episode, we spotlight arcade games that stood out by daring to look different, even bizarre! Let's see which ones you remember!

And later on, we'll ask for your favorite childhood arcade spot before Boss Rush Mode cross checks the mic for another episode of his hockey segment THE PUCK STOPS HERE!

Break out the Ecto-Cooler because this week's episode is a sprawling discussion on the only spirit-hunting team that still waits by the phone... the Ghostbusters! 8-bit Alchemy leads us down dusty library rows as we breakdown this beloved film series and well as the cartoon and even the 2009 video game which (like the films) was written by Ramis and Aykroyd! So strap in, power up and try not to get slimed!

Later on, Parasite Steve shines the spotlight on a remake of a classic SNES beat em up, NINJA SAVIORS: RETURN OF THE WARRIORS for another edition of Retro Nouveau!

It's hard to argue that Symphony of the Night is one of the Castlevania series' most beloved entries. Currently, the game is playable (along with it's predecessor, Rondo of Blood) in the Castlevania Requiem collection. For this bonus episode, Parasite Steve snags the mic to discuss his recent playthrough of a game he first fell in love with 23 years earlier!

This week, we decided to dust off some memories on fast food toys. Whether it was McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's or even Pizza Hut, almost every chain was in the business of drawing in younger customers with the allure of individually packaged plastic fun they could get nowhere else! This discussion runs long so buckle in, take some blood pressure medication and let's see how many of these toys you remember!

After the main discussion, we'll ask for your favorite temporary fast food item, before Nintenjoe closes us out with another installment of POWER TO THE METAL!

On this episode, Retro Ridoctopus switches on some Music Television! We'll discuss the early years and spotlight some of the classic videos and MTV programs we watched over and over!

Later, this week's "Octoponder THIS" will ask for your favorite non-music related MTV show before 8-Bit Alchemy ends things with another edition of COMPOSE YO-SELF!

On this episode, we spotlight the incredibly talented actor Leslie Nielsen! We'll chat about some of his earlier straight man work, but spend the bulk of our energies on his comedic stuff. "THE NAKED GUN", "POLICE SQUAD" and of course "AIRPLANE" are all comedy classics!

In other words... it’s the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the orange bowl on New Year’s Day.

Later on, we take turns paying tribute to some awesome independent artists that we think deserve your patronage!

Raise a chalice, Dork-Vania has arrived!

For our part, Retro Ridoctopus is concentrating on the seminal music of the series--each of us having handpicked double-shots of music for your listening pleasure. And since it is most definitely a horrible night for a curse, we welcome aboard the Boy Wonderful himself, Ian Wallace from Amalga-Mania!

Later on, Parasite Steve will be spotlighting another indie book in Curtis Lawson's pull-no-punches, "BLACK HEART BOYS' CHOIR".
