Rob and Pernell are back together in the studio, and ready to rock this podcast! This week's topic is "Memories", meaning anything that triggers specific memories for us, personal or gaming related. So this one gets a little heavy on the nostalgia. Pernell gets nostalgic for the old east coast Bemani scene, and Rob gets nostalgic for old audio formats.

Episode 6-2 TurboGrafx CD
The show gets a few upgrades and add-ons this week with our focus on the TurboGrafx CD systems! Last week we looked at classic TurboGrafx 16 music, but this week is music in the classic CD audio format Redbook. It gets a little jazzy, a little funky, and then a little crazy with that Riot Zone track. I'm still not sure what's going on there.

This week we jam out to music from the TurboGrafx 16, also known as the PC Engine in Japan. There are some absolute gems in this week's episode, so get to it!
