Let’s bid a hale and hearty welcome back to Chris Olson, retronaut extraordinaire and coder supremo, to discuss the demoscene. Chris is a font of knowledge about the bits, bytes, and bobs of demoscenery and low-powered computer MacGyvering. We also delve into the exciting world of USA territorial geography, gouda smuggling, and zebra mussels.

The song at the end of this week’s show is My Place In Space by Mental Floss (AndrewM) remixed by Chuck Biscuits.
