Advertise on podcast: Spindash Retrogaming Podcast

The 3 year hiatus has come to an end. The Spindash hosts dust off the cobwebs in this meandering return to the podcast scene. Plans for the show going forward are discussed in a semi-incoherent manner.

The year is 2048, and after months of trying (and failing), the Spindash hosts finally escape the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic.

After a small hiatus, the Spindash hosts return with one of John's picks. It was a rocky start, Nick's internet died yet again, and no one was enthused about the game, but everyone soldiered on.

Much to John's frustration, the Spindash hosts continue "The Year of the Weeb" with Final Fantasy X for the PS2. In an act of defiance, John calls it a quits after leaving Zanarkand. Nick and Matt, the ever faithful guardians, continue their pilgrimage.

The Spindash hosts fully embrace The Year of the Weeb by playing Fist of the North Star for the NES. The hosts discuss the game as well as the movies, and then in classic Spindash fashion, Nick's internet dies. True to the meme, it was "already dead."
