He's worked on Demon Chic and the upcoming One Way Trip, doing things including writing the story, composing music, and coming up with the unique art style of both.

Season 4, Episode 4: The Basics of DKC (feat. Ant Dahl)!!


Another episode up this week! This one is last week's with good friend and host of the up-and-coming Fortuna Podcast, Ant Dahl! We chat about his extensive history with radio hosting and podcasting. We also talk about the things we love about Donkey Kong Country, Metal Gear Solid, and Mega64. There were some technical difficulties in the studio that we bring up as well, but thanks to the magic of editing, you don't have to worry about that!

Season 4 Episode 2: Disgaea Is for Retirees (feat. Heidi Kemps)!!







Hey 8-bit Italians,
It's been a long time since I've put anything up here. Too long, I know, and I'm sorry for that. Anyway, season 4 of Boston's favorite chiptune and gaming talk radio show is in full effect!

After a great premiere with guests Stephen and Bryan Kelly of Whales are Whales (which, unfortunately, was not recorded), the show has another jam-packed week with a full discussion on the Japanese games industry, culture, multimedia products, the upcoming GDC, and NIS America's big new announcements ( inc. RODEA!!!) with expert games writer Heidi Kemps!

Listen to the episode here!
