Rees hosts a YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/ctrlaltrees where he makes some fascinating videos explaining consoles, computers and games. He also spends a lot of time restoring old machines. I find the latter incredibly relaxing. I have no real idea what he's doing, but for me it's almost meditative. He also host a delightful podcast called Rees Rambles. https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/reesrambles

I'm a big fan of Mat Murray on and off The Computer Game Show. He's always said no to doing shows outside of TCGS so I was really thrilled he agreed to coming on RAM. It's a really lovely episode that not only covers the Sega Saturn, we also get into Severance and Mr Beast...don't worry, we recorded this a few weeks ago so it shouldn't have any current spoilers.

This episode I am joined by gaming pioneer Kevin Toms. He wrote the original Football Manager back in the early 80's Always a thrill for me to talk to the people that really were at the forefront of gaming in the UK. We do spend a lot of the time talking about late diagnosis of ADHD and as always, I learn so much talking to other ADHDers.

This was a real thrill for me...watch me fanboying as I speak to actress, author and voice over artist Shelley Blond. She has never played a video game...so why talk to her? Two reasons - one she is fab and secondly because she is the OG voice of Lara Croft from Tomb Raider.


I really enjoyed this - big thanks to Shelley for taking the time to chat.
