That was a great episode! Pirates! was one of my favorites as well. I like the different segments of the podcast. I remember making my own Pirates! map using graph paper and just sailing around the Caribbean for the better part of a month, like Magellan or DeSoto, sketching the coastlines. It got to the point where I could sail to the exact location when I bought a single piece of pirate map from 'a shady customer' in a tavern.

Will you be covering Super Huey 2 in an upcoming episode? I have a cool memory of that game I want to share in the proper thread.

Thanks for the feedback man, I really appreciate it. I'm still trying to figure out which segments work and which ones don't (or new ones to add) so any feedback is greatly suggested.

I'm not sure I played Super Huey 2 much or at all but I will put it on the list for sure!

Is Sprite Castle available via iTunes? I just find it so much more convenient to download that way.
