In the early days of Retrotopia, Sam and Brian started with a little-known game called Super Mario Bros 2. You can find that way back at the beginning of the podcast. Now they have moved on to Super Mario Bros 3, and in between these two games, they brought on a new member to the team, Alan. Initially, he did the Gentleman's Interlude, but this trio's dynamic quickly evolved, and now Alan is a part of the whole podcast. He introduced the show this week and joined Sam and Brian on the game chat.
