NNR Reruns: C1E35: ”The Floppy Show” (orig. released 09/20/18)

Today's Rerun is C1E35: "The Floppy Show", originally released Sept 20th, 2018, it was our focus on music from games from Computer systems (as opposed to conventional game consoles). The episode was named after a local Des Moines-area kid's show from the 1950s-1980s, and features clips of the show in both the intro and the outro (as well as a little Kraftwerk and Sonic CD).

 

Please note that due to the attached ear catcher at the beginning regarding Best of 2019, the time stamps in the track list will be off by a minute, minute and a half. Up against a deadline to put this down for a couple months, I did not have time to update the time stamps accordingly. They're still reasonably close, I suppose. :-) 

  

Cheers!
