Episode 007 - Isn’t Hastur the One You’re Not Meant to Name In an episode recorded in the summer (before various house moves), Paul and Relly ponder the next generation consoles and one of them (can you guess?) is excited about new Zelda announcements. There’s discussion of Amazon’s business strategy, a lot of love for Victoria (in Canada), a bit less love for Amstrad’s Mega PC and Relly’s Clavinova ownership tips.
