Hello!

As usual, we're giving you -- our beloved audience -- the opportunity to help select an upcoming episode of our retro and nostalgia podcast, KnockBack.

Here's what you do: Submit a single topic idea in the thread below, and then use Patreon's "like" system (which is a heart) to show support for others' submissions that you like. Near the end of the month, we'll round-up your answers and distill everything to the five most-popular choices, which you can then vote on.
There are rules! Please follow them. Make only a single submission, and ensure that no one else has already made your suggestion (duplicates will be deleted). Please remember that anything released after February of 2012 isn't eligible, but everything before that is: Video games, television shows, films, and so on and so forth.

Okay, that's it. Have at it!

I realize this is not nostalgic but I would love to hear Dagan talk about the new Cup Head show

The Rose Experience

Final Fantasy X - because you need to finish this game. It’s great, the characters have strong evolution, grid system is dope and the combat works really well. Ignore the laugh, who cares and get through it.

McHooliganXXL

Mr. Robot (Entire Series) Check this show out if you haven't already. It's definitely one of the better shows in recent memory.

Luke Tucker

Streets of Fire (1984) - from the creative team that brought us The Warriors (1979). A neo-noir 50s/80s rock and roll fable where everyone is 30 or younger and 18 year-old Diane Lane is a rock star. Featuring Willem Dafoe, Rick Moranis and songs written by Jim Steinman the dude who wrote hits for Meatloaf and Bonnie Tyler. Cult Classic. Oh, and there are debated statements saying it influenced Final Fight and Streets of Rage.
