The Intellivisionaries - Episode 6.  We do our traditional "deep dive" game review; this time it's The Dreadnaught Factor from Activision.  We interview the programmer / designer of the game, Tom Loughry.  We also interview Kieren Hawken (aka "The Laird") from Retro Video Gamer in the UK.  And this month we have a special guest host, Kevin Savetz - author of "Terrible Nerd", one of the hosts of Antic: The Atari 8-bit Podcast, and an Intellivision collector.  And all the feedback, news and fun you've come to expect from our show is here too.
