Adrian! I didn’t know you were a member on this forum. Arcade Attack is my absolute favorite gaming podcast, I’ve listened to almost every episode once, and several of them twice!
Fellow Adventure Gamers people, if you like games podcasts and haven’t listened to Arcade Attack, you’re missing out on a treat. It’s the most fun and un-elite podcast out there; if you are even *remotely* interested in the subject matter of a particular episode, you will enjoy it.

I had a five hour drive yesterday, which gave me the time to enjoy the first hour ‘n thirty of the Tami Boriwick (LucasFilm Legend) interview. The first part was enjoyable enough, but once she started talking about her time AFTER LucasFilm, such as when she was at Humongous Games—I thought that stuff was really great.

Another top-notch interview, Adrian. Thank you very much.

PS: I miss Rob. He was an ornery cuss sometimes, but he brought a really saucy dynamic that made things even more fun.

Thank you so much! This reply has made my day! Really appreciate the lovely feedback on the podcast! I miss Rob too! I think he may be back as a special guest soon hopefully! Thanks again my friend.
