As they've yet to invent a functioning time-travel device, authors Adam Eccles and Keith A Pearson did the next best thing — they created The Retrolists Podcast to discuss the best and worst features of life in pre-internet Britain. Covering such high-brow subjects as hedge porn and the demise of MFI, this is the podcast for those seeking an irreverent, sometimes sweary trip back in time. Critical Praise for The Retrolists Podcast... "It's alright, I suppose." — Adrian Norcott "My wife calle ...
