Hey All,

We just wrapped a great 2-hour interview with Geoff Edwards, host of Starcade, for an upcoming RetroGamingRoundup podcast. What a genuinely great guy with tons of great stories to tell about his history in hosting radio and game shows as well as acting. You won't want to miss this one! I think we will be airing it in our September show. And even at 80 he is still a gamer!

Awesome! I just bought the Starcade DVD (I believe there's only one?) not too long ago. Great show and what a blast from the past! I'll pop it in as background atmosphere while we're playing pinball sometimes. Looking forward to hearing/seeing this interview.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is Starcade?

Awesome, Mike! I guess it really was a great interview since it is getting to jump the queue of interviews you have in the can. Can't wait to hear it!

Geoff jokingly said we better run it sooner than later. He is 80 afterall We might get him to CGE next summer, too!

Thanks for the link, I'm going to be playing this today after I get home from work! I'd heard of the game how on one of the documentaries I watched recently, but it was just a short clip. I think it was Chasing Ghosts . . .
