Here's an interview with musician, composer and Metroid Metal creator Grant Henry, better known as Stemage.  This is a laid-back conversation that's mostly music-focused;  Come "pull up a chair and hang out with us" for awhile, as I geek out talking to someone I've been a massive fan of for years!

Here's an interview with MiSTer script creator Callan, who you might know as Wizzo. I asked that he join me for a podcast, as I wanted to go over all the really helpful tools he's created. I'd be willing to bet every MiSTer user would be interested in at least ONE of his scripts, so give it a listen and decide for yourself!

Support Wizzo: https://ko-fi.com/wizzo

Wizzo's Scripts: https://github.com/wizzomafizzo/mrext

To install the scripts, you can download them from his github and copy them right to your MiSTer's "scripts" folder. You can also enable his scripts via update_all, however not all will be available.

As always, these long-form podcasts are also available as a video, with links on RetroRGB.com
