Welcome to "Backwards Compatible: A Generation 'S' Podcast," your new go-to destination for diving deep into the golden era of video games. Formerly known as "Generation 'S'," we've honed our focus to bring you an even richer journey through the nostalgic lanes of gaming history.
From the pixelated adventures on the NES to the immersive, high-definition worlds of the PS3 and Xbox 360, we cover it all. Each episode is a deep dive into the games that shaped us, discussing not just the games themselves, but the stories behind them, their impact on culture, and how they've influenced the gaming landscape today.
And "Backwards Compatible" isn't just about the games. It's about reliving the pop culture of the '90s and early 2000s through the lens of retro gaming. Remember the excitement of flipping through a gaming magazine, the thrill of finally beating that level you were stuck on for weeks, or the camaraderie of playing with friends? We bring all that back and more.
Whether you're a long-time listener from the "Generation 'S'" days or a newcomer eager to explore the history of video games, "Backwards Compatible" promises a blend of nostalgia, insight, and fun. Join us as we revisit the classics, uncover hidden gems, and share our personal stories of gaming glory.

This week, we interrupt your regularly scheduled broadcast of Generation 'S' for a good ole' fashioned CROSSOVER episode! A few weeks back, I had the privelege of joining Sean and Ty on the Whiskeylodeon podcast, which combines two of my favorite things on this planet: booze and cartoons. You may in fact remember Ty from some previous episodes of this podcast, and so I finally had the chance to return the favor, and talk some old school Nickelodeon.
This time around, we covered one of my favorite episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark, as well as the pilot episode of a COMPLETELY forgotten gem from the early 2000s, The Journey of Allen Strange.
It's a bit of longer episode, but it's because we had SO MUCH FUN. Hopefully it comes through in our episode, so kick back and enjoy!
We've got merch!
Check out the site for some awesome Gen 'S' swag :)
