The Blue Blur himself has FINALLY made it onto The Retro Blast Podcast and it's long overdue!

SEGA found itself in a stranglehold in the early 90s as Nintendo dominated the video game market in the United States... And they were almost out of options.

Until a little blue hedgehog with super speed AND a super 90s attitude hit the scene and changed the video game landscape forever.

The Gamersician himself is back to join Host Patrick Brickhouse for a nostalgic conversation about what it was like to be a kid in the 90s when Sonic hit the scene, what we love about the game to this day, and OF COURSE, the music—With a very special section in the later half of the episode where we discuss comments from Patrons about their favorite OG Sonic songs and memories!

Guest Host: Paul, The Gamersician
