Welcome to my podcast page, I am a casual gamer who streams, does Let's Plays, and just enjoys video games. Memory Card is essentially my avenue for my love of history as well. I decided to combine both of my passions for history and video games to create a chronological series detailing the complete history of video games, consoles, influencers, and historic moments. I hope you enjoy this journey through time, and be sure to check me out on YouTube, Twitch, Threads, Instagram, Facebook, Tumblr, and Mastodon!
