In this episode of the Drink O’Clock Podcast, Rob sits down with Jed Shaffer—co-host of First Gen Gamers—for a deep dive into the nerdy nostalgia of growing up gaming. From snow-shoveling woes and Galaga showdowns to arcade memories and console wars, the two unpack their love for video games across the decades. They talk early console memories, the beauty of Baldur’s Gate 3, frustrations with modern gaming trends, and the madness of collecting Pokémon cards as grown men. Jed also shares how his podcast came to life, keeping the spirit of retro gaming alive for a new generation. If you’ve ever stayed up too late grinding for loot or still remember the smell of your local arcade—this one’s for you.
