Episode 215: Diner Dash - Retro Rewind

Craig and Dave play 2004's Diner Dash. then they talk about everything else other than Diner Dash.

2004's Retro Rewind was Craig's pick for reasons unknown. Well they are known, he wanted to recreate that fun of Yakuza 0's hosting minigame. I'm not sure it worked! Also the music on episode is from 2009's Flo on the Go, whoops.
