I'm doing this new podcast called "RetroBlast: A 90's gaming RetroSpective".
It's basically a chronological look at my gaming history during the early 90's. Anyways, I just thought that I would mention the podcast here because I end up talking about EGM issues quite a bit. So if anybody is reading EGM issues from 1991 they might enjoy some of these shows.
In my most recent episode, I talk about issue #22 of EGM (May 1991):
The show isn't specifically about gaming magazines, but I mention them a lot, and in a few of the episodes I've talked about magazines quite a bit. The podcast is a solo podcast, basically me reflecting back on my early 90's gaming adventures, but on episode 11 special guest Chris Alaimo (from Classic Gaming Quarterly) joins me on the podcast. At a certain point we talk about a number of topics relating to the May 1991 EGM.

Episode 9 has a pretty long discussion about gaming magazines in it, only thing is, episode 9 is kinda a bad episode to start with, because I'm telling this long personal story that really began back in episode 7. In episode 9 I talk about EGM, GamePro, Game Players and Video Games and Computer Entertainment.
All of these magazines will be talked about in future episodes of RetroBlast. I'm basically covering specific timelines of my gaming life, and i was a hardcore video game magazine nerd at the time, so it's a bit part of my videogaming memories. So, I'll be talking a whole bunch about EGM and GamePro in future episodes. Die Hard GameFan and Next-Generation were my two favorite magazines of all time, so when I eventually get to the time when they were available, I'll be talking about those mags too. Check it out if you get a chance...
