I've just listened to half of the 8 bit episode. As far as 'some mates chatting about old games' type podcasts go its not bad at all.

Didn't expect those accents, I've broken a long standing rule to avoid any media with it in. That's no mean feat, as I plan to continue listening :D

Well done.

Stephen from the podcast here. One of the guys has been on holidays recently which means we haven't had access to the studio in a while which is why there was a break. Hopefully we will begin recording in the next few days again and Part 2 of the zelda podcast has already been recorded just not posted so should have that up soon enough. Sorry about the delay but glad you guys are enjoying it!

No need to apologise, that's hardly a delay - have a look at the C64 Takeaway podcast, its now an annual event! :lol:

Thanks for the update, looking forward to more shows.

Sorry for the long hiatus but part 2 of the Legend of Zelda podcast is finally up. Should be recording Friday as well so hopefully there won't be anymore big breaks:

Cheers guys, I've never 'done' podcasts before, so thought I'd load a couple of episodes to listen to at work tomorrow. Downloaded the Horror and eight bit computer ones...hell I'm looking forward to going to work! :wink:

Listened to my first podcasts (ever!), and must say I'm enjoying them. No disrespect, the accents made me feel like Father Dougal etc were going to pop up, but once I settled in it was fine!
