Norah is visiting Tucson this week, so she has stopped by the studio to procure some Mango affection (via bribery) and make an appearance on the podcast! They were planning on doing a different word initially, but they are keeping it in the same wheelhouse to make a distinction between the two words—often used as synonyms. After a quick introduction where Ben talks about the game review code he received for the recent port of the N64 game Glover, Norah and Ben discuss their thoughts on the differences between retro and vintage, antique and vintage collections or items, and educational techniques that aren’t keeping pace with technological advancements. To close out the show, they share their Disneyland and Disney World experiences and critique a blog post about some historical menu items served at the parks.

00:07:08 - An unfortunate distinction, ball metamorphosis, a platformer relic, and ideas of fun
00:10:55 - Clash of the Titans, games out of time, Norah’s surprise, and everyone’s favorite ox
00:13:31 - Rifles in Indiana, items of high quality, wine diagrams, and hipsters or vino snobs
00:16:25 - Sommeliers, roasty coffee, Merriam-Webster chaser, and pondering the differences
00:20:41 - Literal organic word growth, the quality debate, art is neither, and Norah is an astute
00:25:52 - Coffins and ashes, collecting heirlooms, hobbies versus investments, and hipsters
00:29:16 - Antique educational methods, vaccines (NOT leeches), other ideas, and typewriters
00:34:04 - Vintage foods, impossible pies, Disney anecdotes, Ben’s favorite ride, and Epcot
00:38:34 - Listing food items, an historic chili cook-off, making Norah sick, and futuristic pies
00:42:53 - Not very pirate-ish, sea chicken sandwiches, an ill-advised pun, and unsurprising
00:45:34 - ACTUAL vintage foods, mincemeat pie, Spam dishes, arcade cabinets, and Pong
00:49:32 - Atari impact, do not eat the aunt, misgendered Mango, and inspired to be difficult
