In this episode of the RPC podcast, we speak with Rob Duenas and James Bacon, two of Keona’s buddies who worked on the 2010 version of GameFan Magazine, a truly unique gaming publication which saw many editorial turnovers and crazy shenanigans occur behind the scenes. From unpaid contributors to acid-spiked coffee to an utterly shameful printing mishap, GF was truly a chaotic place to work in its original incarnation. But what of the 2010 relaunch? Did Rob and James have the same experiences as their predecessors? Read the show notes and listen to our conversation to find out!

Randy here with an update from the frontlines of the GPU Wars! With the release of Nvidia’s latest set of graphics cards, the GeForce RTX 30 series comes both good news and bad news. In short, the good news is that they’re awesome! The bad news is that some users are experiencing issues while playing games. That is, if they’re lucky enough to even find one of the 3080s or 3090s to buy in retail stores! <Sigh> Yet another tech shortage. Goodie.

Welcome to another special edition of the Renegade Arcade here on the RPC Podcast Network! This episode, Jacob and I had the chance to interview the awesome co-directors of the Console Wars documentary, currently available on CBS All Access! This was an incredible opportunity to speak with fellow gamers about a time which seems so long ago, and yet I still remember it like it was yesterday. Ah, the nostalgia. The documentary, like Harris’ book, is chock full of discussions with industry luminaries like Nintendo’s Howard Lincoln and Gail Tilden, along with Sega’s Tom Kalinske and Al Nilsen. It’s a veritable wealth of first-hand accounts and behind the scenes info, and it is just glorious for gaming history buffs like myself. Click that link and let’s ride the time wave back to the early 1990s!

Welcome back to the most electrifying podcast in the world of entertainment: The Free For All! It’s been a while since we did a free-flowin’ discussion about the things that interest us, so Mike, Brock, Josh, Kristal, and Keona sat down to chat about the Sony Playstation 5 preorder fiasco, the Microsoft Xbox Series S/X preorder kerfuffle, David Ayer’s Tax Collector film, Netflix’s Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance cancellation, a bit of wrestling news, the Beatles’ most famous songs, and so much more! Smash that play button!

Neoplasmic here, with some thoughts on Blake J. Harris’ excellent non-fiction novel, Console Wars! Nostalgic, informative, and fast-paced to the point that I could barely put it down, Console Wars recounts the years-long battle for video game industry dominance between Nintendo (the big N, perennially in control of the market) and Sega (the scrappy, edgy underdog). Whichever one you owned or rooted for back then, the competition between both entities certainly resulted in an exciting time for those of us who remember the first Console War. Suit up, click the link, and be ready to enter the front lines!

Welcome to the first installment of RPC Tech, our new article series on the world of technology!

Welcome to the second episode of our Mental Health Checkup series here on the RPC Podcast Network! This episode was a bit different from the first one, in that we kept the format a bit looser and the discussion turned into more of a Free For All venting session, but the core message was still there: Whatever it is you’re dealing with, especially during these unprecedented and strange times, even though the path is dark and confusing… things will get better. The dawn will come again. Life, to paraphrase Dr. Ian Malcolm, will find a way. I know that may sound trite, especially for those going through the most horrible of circumstances, but just know that you can make it through, and as you’re struggling, you’ll always have the RPC crew cheering you on!

Hello and welcome to the inaugural edition of Renegade Pop Culture’s interview show, tentatively titled RPC 1 on 1!
