My choice for #randomgamesaturday is Pocket King on the Game Boy/Game Boy Color, a Japan only Namco release combining a strategy RPG with Pokemon characteristics of raising and evolving creatures to fight battles. Absolutely brilliant stuff and totally overlooked. Highly recommended. #retrogaming
A credits saying "The following images were digitized at NASA by Kerry Lancaster using Newtek's Digiview Digizter." With thanks to microsearch for the of their Amigas
A digitized photo of a Shuttle with its bays open and conducting operations
Another crt tv screenie of a shuttle in orbit, seen from above, bays open.
A digitized image of a suited astronaut in space conducting operations in (what I think) is a shuttle bay
Amigas at NASA? Seems so! On a 1990/1991 demoscene slideshow disk, I found these cool digitizations. The classic worm logo as well!
For people who like the view from trains as much as I do, here is a minute and a half video of us just rolling through the French countryside. www.manton.org/2026/04/10/for-people-wh...
The name’s Rain, John Rain… and the Smersh Pod Maestro joins Paul & Eli for a James Bond packed edition of the economy comedy podcast. It’s a 007 Price of Shite special whether John likes it not.

"A whole civilization will die tonight" is the threat of a war crime. The only way to achieve that result is nuclear.
Those charged by the 25th Amendment to police his fitness to serve need to realize this: If they don't act to stop it, they are responsible.

Really tired and frustrated watching folks talk about how a nuclear strike or its destructive equivalent to Iran would endanger Americans.
people are people. Iranian children are just as vulnerable and just as beloved as ours. Iranians have as many dreams and hopes and gifts as we do.
Ok Fantasy Life to do list:

The boys went to see Project Hail Mary at the cinema and couldn't wait to talk about it.
Some odd interferance this week. Always seems to happen on those remote records.......🤔 😉
New Untitled Sci-Fi Show, out NOW!
Note: the "it was written" part is not wrong even if it sounds a bit unnatural, that's the 「としるされていた」part. Just to clarify :)
It doesn't mean that at all, it means "As soon as you discover them, execute them!" because when written using kanji, it disambiguates it completely "発見次第、処刑せよ” - this is why though these services have improved a lot, they aren't infallible and automatic translation can lead to mistakes.
How can AI and translation services make a mess of Japanese sometimes? Often in Japanese writing, katakana and hiragana (phonetic syllabaries) and partial use of kanji can make things ambiguous. Google Translate takes "ハッケンシダイショケイせよ" to mean "It was written discovery and submission required" Eh?
HE HAS RISEN!
Watch the LXB take on the "board game" based on the wacky exploits of Mr Jar Jar Binks...
Merry Easter, we guess!

Bit of a long one, we forgot to say we'd seen Project Hail Mary til finishing recording. Bonus review shoved in the middle of the show
For my #RandomGameSaturday, something not that random, The Legend of Zelda : Skyward Sword HD is 100% deserving of your time if you like action adventure games. Some of the best dungeons I have enjoyed in a very long time. And the Japanese release holds a secret... I spilled it in my review! #zelda
Behold a brand new video, featuring a whole heap of British toy nostalgia... from a Death Star roundabout - to Action Man himself. Happy Easter, everyone. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OFZ...
Good Lord! Nick Helm is back on the podcast, demanding that Paul & Eli supply him with Pepsi produce! Fine, we’ll give him Pepsi stuff alright! ALL THE PEPSI WE CAN FATHOM!
Not Spons… for very obvious reasons!

Who can send me a few 90s Pogs for the 90s edition of the zine? Just one stamp's worth.
NEW EPISODE OUT NOW
Misheard lyrics, cap bombs, dangerous childhood experiments and a snack sack that includes maple bacon crisps and a bizarre peelable mango sweet.
Also: why nobody actually understands half the lyrics to Blur, Nirvana or Gorillaz songs.

Found a very old family tape that shows New York in (probably) the 70s. Kinda neat. Will post the full video here when it has been digitized.
Eli is back from his break in the Americas & Paul has to cram in a recording and editing session in 1 day! It’s another “real time” episode that isn’t really “real time” & ends up with them both enduring a truly horrible “Cheap Eats”
