Under Consoletation: The Video Game Television Podcast

Cliff is joined by John (AKA Oddtrots on Twitch) for one of our favourite shows, Starcade. Are we covering the episode because of the number? Or is it because a grown arse man takes on a child who is seemingly wearing the same clothes as him? Or is it so we can find how Mr Pickle died in suspicious circumstances? Well... maybe all of the above.
Watch the episode of Starcade here.
Follow John on Twitch and check out his podcast.

Cliffs funishment continues! Last year it was Ewoks, this year it's Star Trek! Cliff has to learn about, then sit and watch the show he frequently refers to as 'Mormons in Space'. No... we don't know why.

Ash attempts to convince him that Star Trek isn't boring or bad, and does this by showing him the film that you the listeners voted for: The Wrath of Khan.

Will he succeed, or will he do a Spock? Tune in to find out.

Commentary begins 25mins 51secs

Breaking their own rules, Ash & Cliff journey back to JANUARY 1985 to pay a final visit to Mac, Leslie and scumbag Fregg at the BBC's Micro Live. There's movie special effects, Brian Jacks vs Atari, more telephones, some Ghostbusters and an IN STUDIO CHALLENGE.
It's very exciting.
