Very recently I sat down for an interview with your fellow Patreon, Pietro Zuco, for his YouTube Channel Messy Circuits. He asked some really great questions and - with a little help from Puppyfractic - I hope I answered them all.

Actually it was interesting to sit down in front of the camera without the usual music and fast edits, and just be (a little) serious for a change. Hope you like it, and make sure you give his up 'n' coming channel a Like & Subscribe, as those YouTubers like to say!

Interview with a Retro Friend Perifractic from Retro Recipes

I had the privilege to interview our friend in retro Christian Simpson a.k.a. "Perifractic". He's a writer, actor, musician and passionate expert about retro computers and vintage tech, and the master mind behind the YouTube channel Retro Recipes. Together with his wife, they are able to bring to life the nostalgia and atmosphere of the 80's and how these machines deeply influenced an entire generation. We talked about how Retro Recipes started, with some interesting insights and valuable advice from a successful content creator.
