Hello everyone! Thank you for your patience, I hit a bit of a podcasting wall right before summer started, and now we have quite a few weeks of visiting with family, which has been great. The schedule for summer will be a bit up in the air, so please continue to bear with me, and I thank you. This episode is about Fireball by Arcadia/Starpath, a Breakout style game for the 2600. Sarah always tells me I sound tired when I record the podcast, and I can never hear it. It is very obvious in this episode however, and I do apologize for that. I really wanted to rerecord it, but that would have taken a few more weeks. I hope that you enjoy it regardless, there's lots of great feedback to listen to in the second half of the show at least. The hardly promoted Summer of Tanks will happen, hopefully it will not become the Autumn of Tanks! The next game in the podcast will be Tanks But No Tanks by Zimag. You can start sending in feedback now if you'd like, I will announce the episode a week before it drops (fingers crossed) so you have enough time to get feedback in. Please send it to 2600gamebygame@gmail.com. Thank you so very much for listening, and enjoy your summer!

According to a Toronto Star article, three nursing homes have been told that they're no longer allowed to accept new residents due to sub-standard care. Sometimes this happens because of people turning a blind-eye and sometimes it's because of budgetary concerns. Whatever the reason, you don't want your parents or relatives to suffer, do you? Guest: Sivan Tumarkin, Head of Personal Injury and Insurance Law practice group at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP-The Ticats are facing the Winnigpeg Blue Bombers tomorrow and if the past is any indicator for the Ticats, things won't go well, or will they? Rick Zamperin joins Scott to talk about how they think tomorrow's game will go as well as the future of the Ticats' coaching roster. Guest: Rick Zamperin, Senior Sports Director at 900 CHML-Computers have been around for only a decade or two but they have revolutionized the world. They're constantly being improved and when you buy the newest model, it seems like a newer one has been released. This makes curating a museum of personal computers incredibly challenging but Syd Bolton has done it! Do you remember your first computer? Guest: Syd Bolton, Curator of the Personal Computer Museum
