I mention these as these podcasts are not always Spectrum-related, but these are a couple of recent highlights:-
https://theretrohour.com/domark-the-ins ... our-ep416/ - After listening to this I would snap up a book about the history of Domark.
- Interview with Bob Pape. Enough said.
The latest ZXDB update will be applied this evening at 1800 BST. The update takes around 30 minutes, and the site goes down whilst this happens.

Re: A couple of podcasts you may have missed
Ta, listening to the Bob Pape one now. Podcasts are much easier for me to digest compared to videos.
Re: A couple of podcasts you may have missed
Thanks for sharing these! I’m presently obsessed with R-Type. I devoured Pape’s book and I can’t wait to hear the man himself talk about his magnum opus. Much appreciated!
Re: A couple of podcasts you may have missed
Thanks. Listened to Byte High Bob Pape, and it sounds like there's another to come. Bob comes across really well. I think toy cars got as much mention as computers!
There were plenty of juicy bits (also in the book), but I did chuckle at the revelation about Miles Gordon Technology in Swansea: I knocked on their door but nobody was in!

Re: A couple of podcasts you may have missed
He's a very engaging guest isn't he? Perhaps because of the name I'd somehow got it in my head he was Scottish (even though I read his book years ago) so was surprised when I heard a Welsh accent!
Re: A couple of podcasts you may have missed
Yep very articulate (I'm jealous!). I assumed he's Welsh but going by his forum personae (he used to be here as @Bizzley) I imagined someone with a bit more needle.
Re: A couple of podcasts you may have missed
I'm going to bump this as I've listened to the first part a few days ago, and just finished the second part which was released on February 29th, so a week after the last post. Both parts were highly entertaining, definitely recommended.
Here's a link to part 2 (now let's see if that embeds the spotify into this forum post; if not, oh well)

Another podcast, which again doesn't seem to be directly Spectrum related, but covers Planet of Death and The Hobbit in this episode:
