A dedicated Intellivision podcast by and for Intellivision collectors and fans of the system, its games, its history, and its thriving home-brew development scene.
In this episode, the guys review the Intellivision Collector title "The Show Must Go On". We also have an interview with Carlos Madruga, the programmer of the game, and also an interview with Tom Boellstorff and Braxton Soderman authors of the upcoming book "Intellivision: How a video game system battled Atari and almost Bankrupted Barbie". All this and Intellivision news plus a segment on playing Intellivision games on a Nintendo DS.

In this episode Rick and Chris talk through recent news in the Intellivision community while working out how to do this show without Paul's constant snarkiness. There's a Homebrew Highlight segment covering IntellivisionRevolution's Missile Domination releases and a bonus segment including the recording of news that was originally intended for episode 46. Doesn't sound like nearly 3 hours of content, does it?

In our new Author Interview (AI) segment, we interview Retro Gaming Round Up host and author "UK" Mike James about his book, Smoke & Mirrors. We also have a small tribute to James "Airshack" Shakel, who passed away earlier this year. And we have a cool listener audio submission from Kevin Braun. And there's Feedback, as well as a new Retro Hobby Projects from Rick, this time about repairing a Sega Dreamcast. And, Paul announces that he's stepping away from the show to pursue other interests, and Rick and Chris will continue on with a different format. Thanks for 10 years, folks!

In this episode, we have two recaps from two gaming expos: CORGS (Columbus Ohio Retro Gaming Society) in May 2022, and PRGE (Portland Retro Gaming Expo) in October 2022. Paul and Rick attended CORGS, Chris and Rick attended PRGE. Paul was supposed to go to PRGE, but his wife broke her arm and elbow, so plans had to be changed. You won't find our usual show segments in this one, and still no game review for Atlantis (perhaps the game review is elusive as the fabled city?), but you will get lots of Intellivision game talk, including expo pickups and new homebrews. Even George returns, although not necessarily in any relevant way. Enjoy!

There's also a 'special' voicemail from friend of the show Tarzilla, and a trailer for the upcoming Pat Ransil / Atlantis interview in episode 44. Hope to see you at CORGS!
In this episode, we get back to a more 'traditional' format, with our Welcome, Feedback and News segments. Lots of new Intellivision homebrews are discussed this time around. You'll also hear about Paul's computer dying, mid-recording (yikes!), and the new Intellivision FAQ. George returns, and we've got some fun outtakes at the end. So hop on the bus to Homebrew City and press play!

In this special year-end episode we've put together a collection of outtakes and bloopers from our catalog of shows. Some are old favorites, some are new, but hopefully they'll all bring a smile to your face and give you a good laugh as we close out 2021. And this episode also allows Paul to proclaim that he did in fact release more episodes in 2021 than in 2020, so there! Happy New Year from all of us at The Intellivisionaries Podcast!
In this episode we continue and finally finish our Top 10 of the original 125 Intellivision games discussion! This is part 2 of 2, where we cover our 5-1 picks, honorable mentions, and hear feedback from listeners on their Top 10 picks.

Because there are two great interviews; one with former Marketing Director for hardware at Mattel Electronics, Gary Moskovitz. Another with current Art Director of Intellivision
Entertainment, Mike Dietz. George gives us his Top 10 of the original 125 Intellivision games, and we sprinkle in some Christmas cheer, along with a special holiday message from Intellivision Entertainment CEO Tommy Tallarico. Grab some eggnog and enjoy... oh, and also listen to the show.

It's Christmas time at The Intellivisionaries Studio... but... where is everybody? Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at The Intellivisionaries Podcast!
In this special episode, Rick, Cmart and Paul talk about their adventures at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2018. It's chock-full of exciting Intellivision content, both old and new! The Blue Sky Rangers panel (Intellivision - A Legacy of Firsts!), which was moderated by Paul is also included. And there are tales of border crossings, Intellivision Day 2018, and something Rick knows nothing about but will soon. Oh, and our good buddy George is here too, still a bit bitter about not being invited to the expo. Maybe next year, George?
In this special episode, we discuss the Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2018. We talk about all the amazing Intellivision related things that will be there, including the new Intellivision Entertainment console reveal, and all the various Intellivision vendors, game releases and fans of the console who will be there. Intellivision will be taking over the expo this year! If you can make it, you won't be disappointed! The only one who's upset about all this is George...
In this episode we review the Left Turn Only game Space Patrol. Rick also interviews the game programmer Joe Zbiciak, and has a new Hobby Projects segment on repairing and modding a Commodore 1902A monitor. Paul interviews Atari Age user and Intellivision enthusiast extraordinaire "Decle" (aka Ian). And we have all the other things you love about The Intellivisionaries; Feedback, News, stories, George, sarcastic humor, cheesy
50's SciFi, and Rick leaving the country in disgust! Wait... WHAT!?

In this episode we review the Mattel Electronics Intellivoice game TRON Solar Sailer by the late Keith Robinson. We interview former Blue Sky Ranger Mark Urbaniec about his involvement with the game, and his memories of working with Keith. There's a listener interview with Steve Craft and his brother Jay. There's a lot of non-Christmas talk by George, and numerous clips from Keith Robinson (sourced from previously released and unreleased material) about TRON Solar Sailer. And of course we have Feedback, News and even a few Easter Eggs. This is also our longest episode ever, clocking in at just over 7 hours!

In this 'not-so-special' (and quite short!) special episode, we discuss what's been happening, why there haven't been any new episodes for a while, and what the plan is for the podcast going forward. George has a few things to say too...
In this special episode, we reminisce about Intellivision legend Keith Robinson (Keith died on June 14th, 2017). Rick, Paul and Cmart are joined by Scott Schreiber of the Retro Gaming Roundup Podcast, and Chris Bidwell of Now You're Playing With Podcast. Tommy Tallarico talks to Paul about his Keith recollections, and Emily Reichbach Rosenthal (VP of Intellivision Productions) also shares her thoughts on him. And listener Chris Dreher contributes a fun story about Mr. Robinson. The Intellivision community has lost one of its greatest assets with Keith's passing, but join us as we celebrate what Keith has done for the Intellivision community.
Additional music used in this episode (used with permission):
"TRON 1.1" (music performed by Tom Kahelin) from the music CD Intellivision in Hi-Fi. Based on the original music from the Disney motion picture TRON (by Wendy Carlos / Wonderland Music BMI).

In this episode we review the Mattel Electronics game Vectron. We interview the programmer / designer Mark Urbaniec. Keith Robinson joins in for part of the interview as well. Will and his wife Margo cover GoSub in a Homebrew Highlight segment. Cmart (Christian Martin) joins us again, as does George (and Nigel). And we have our usual Feedback, Mentions, News and fun.

Rick discusses the Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2016 with Cmart (Chris Martin), FreeWheel (Gary Magnan) and Tarzilla (Don Switzer). They go into the expo in general, the Intellivision homebrew games that were released and shown, and other side stories that may or may not involve dank restroom smells.
In this episode we review the Mattel Electronics game Royal Dealer. Cmart (Christian Martin) joins us again, as does George, spreading some holiday cheer in this December / Christmas / Holiday episode. We interview former Mattel Electronics 'retail merchandiser' Ken Stefancic, and have our usual helpings of Feedback and News.

In this episode we review the Atarisoft game Pac-Man, and the IntelligentVision game Ms. Pac-Man. We also interview both programmers; Mike Winans (Pac-Man) and Carl Mueller Jr. (Ms. Pac-Man). Cmart (Christian Martin) joins us again, as does George, and a surprise guest during News. We're gearing up for the Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2016, but not all the hosts could be present for all aspects of this episode. Due to that, and the fact that it's almost Halloween as this episode is released, there may be some unusual occurrences in the timeline...
