Other Podcasts
Drink O'Clock Podcast
The topics are wide-ranging on the Drink O'Clock Podcast, where Rob “MaxABV” Valincius takes the opportunity to talk to anyone that has an interesting topic (or two) to bring on the show.
Mike talked with Rob on Season 1, episode 70 (2/15/2024) about retro gaming and astronomy (as different topics, not the narrow area of overlap, so this isn't a long monologue on the classic Atari game Asteroids).
