Why everyone misunderstood Cannon Fodder

This week's podcast brings you a look at the latest retro gaming news, with everything from new Atari 50 DLC to the eyesore that is the Super Pocket Capcom special Kith edition.

Seriously, don't look at it.

The main feature this week is an appraisal of Cannon Fodder's anti-war message. Yes, it's there, it's not buried too far, and it's pretty sobering, actually.
