Lady Fractic did a decent job with the german pronounciation. Sure, it was kinda rough around the edges and still very much accompanied by an american accent, but I wondered whether she had some german language training at some point, as native (american) english speaker usually do a much worse job when they're not familiar with german...and that's pretty much valid for any untrained foreign speaker in any language. Still, good job.

LOVE the weather channel link! I had been enjoying these all last year on youtube remembering all the hotels having the weather channel on tv in our rooms. Something comforting about it when you wake up in the morning and hear the music and see the weather. NOW to actually one that gives me weather in my area with the classic music is AWESOME! Thank you so much for posting the link - bookmarked!

[@andyt2510]

The bug on Red Dwarf is called Starbug

[@plan7a]

There is also the Blue Midget; just mentioned for completing the line-up!

[@BollingHolt]

LOVE the retro Weather Channel!!!!

[@SoulPoetryandOtherWorks]

Every day can feel like Christmas Day when one watches the Retro Show. Another great video of nostalgic bliss to sweeten and enhance our days. Magical through and through. As for the Red Dwarf ships, there were two main support vessels used"The Blue Midget" and "Star Bug" although the latter ship went through many changes and incarnations. There was also "Car Bug" in the Back to Earth season of Red Dwarf. A smart car was done up to look like a road-worthy "Star Bug". Perifractic becomes a heartbreaker to match Ladyfractic and the ever-so-adorable Junifractic. Thank you all for the continued joy your shows bring.

[@kite666G]

Everytime a new Retro Show comes out my brain says put everything aside and watch this! And it never disappoints.

Nice job Peri. RIP Carl Weathers

It's actually great to see that kids today are blown away in the same way we were when we unwrapped a console or similar gift.

Fun bit of trivia: PDF originated as a Display Postscript hack that a NeXT employee named Sam quickly threw together in an afternoon. Before he went to NeXT, he worked for my local Atari store Paradise Computers in San Luis Obispo in California. When he was there, he created SGS-Net which networked Atari STs together using the standard MIDI port.

Thanks for featuring another one of my side projects (the WeatherStar 4000+) 😊 thanks everyone for the great comments!!!

Thank you Fractic family and all our love to Babyfractic. As always a great show that brightens our day and as the Beach Boys songs say" Good vibrations" you guys are the best.

[@albert_vds]

If you are planning on getting a NES then you might also consider in trying the Open Nes Project. As the name says it's an opensource version of the NES, the main board can be create by(for instance) PCBWay and solder all the components to the board yourself. It could turn into a whole project and even 3D print a custom shell for it, or find a suitable after market one.

Carl Weathers also played in an episode of The Six Million Dollar man. The episode is called One of our running backs is missing.

Such an entertaining show. So wholesome and so touching too. Thanks guys. Really do appreciate your show and look forward to every episode.

[@GeorgesChannel]

Great episode and good news from Germany: I got the job at Siemens :) I persuaded them to rewrite the OS in Commodore Basic. May translation: "Weil Papi nicht swiped" -> "Because Dad does not swipe" (I guess the thing we do with smartphones).

[@RetroRecipes]

A definite upgrade!

[@somatyk]

Just came across your awesome channel. Flippin' loving it. The new 64 build episode is a thing of beauty. Mentally spending my available funds as I type.

[@Midcon77]

Perfi, you should make a SW video. Fans like us who are SW nerds in addition to retro nerds would love to hear more!!

[@RetroRecipes]

Cool, what sort of things would you like to know? My SW story of how I got the various roles? Something else?

[@Midcon77]

@@RetroRecipes yeah, how it happened, what it was like working as Anakin's stand-in, that kind of thing. Ep 4 was the first movie I saw, first record I bought, etc. The BTS stuff fascinates me and you have a great knack for making the stories fun and interesting! SW to me is like Knight Rider to you - except you are literally in the films living a little bit of my nostalgia dreams! 😂 Also am I correct in remembering ladyfractic had a voice role somewhere along the way? Thought I read that somewhere?

[@puzzud]

Every now and then this show makes me LOL. This one was when you said we'll find out what happened to Mace Windu in a few years.

[@lukasloechert]

Great show as usual 😊

[@Zhixalom]

That guy screaming behind your sofa, made me first think of those soldiers in Beach Head II screaming "AAaaaaagh", "Medic" and such. The second thing it made me think of was the death-scream in Impossible Mission... there's another one in the game "Chimera" I believe. Plplplplplplplease (Roger Rabbit voice) do an episode with as many of those C64 in-game voices as you can find. Plplplplplplplease! Do it for me. 🧡🤣

this guy make KITT for FUN! ITS AMAZING CHANNEL EVER WORLD!

[@andyjohnson4907]

Aww! Thanks, guys. My mum will love watching herself on your show! I won't record her reaction, though, as I think it would create a perpetual dotty old lady machine.

Hahah Jenny Joneception

[@GAMECLOSET]

Very fun, guys! This one flew by. I dig that Delorean. The funboxings are very interesting pieces. I’ll need to look a couple of those up and see more about what they do. (Gadget geek here.) BTW, we loved LF’s reaction to her finding out she’s closer kin than she thought! 😂 Also, Junifractic, we ❤ you (she’s such a sweetie). LF, we noticed a slight hair change, it’s really cool, very chíc!

This is really a nice Retro Show again. I love the Retro stuff. I'm quite into Retro stuff too. As I don't have the space to have real Retro hardware, I just emulate the various Commodore Amiga computers trough WinUAE and I play the older Retro MS-DOS games trough DOSBOX. I had a Commodore Amiga 500, a MSX 1 and later a MSX 2. I also had a 486 PC. I didn't had them all together but somehow after each other. I don't know the years that I had them anymore, but I did have a lot of fun with them. I only have a modern PC now, which I built by myself with a little help from others.

Your segment showing kids opening their favorite toys at Christmas makes me tear up since I never got the joy of being the dad to witness it.

[@Wanton110]

The only thing I ever asked for, for Christmas was an electric train set, the year I got one, while setting it up my sister roller bladed over the bit that connects the power to the rails breaking it and it never worked

[@RetroRecipes]

NOOOOOO!

[@marklechman2225]

Christian absolutely should have played Anakin - tell me he doesn't sound like a young Vader.

When you said funboxing; I thought of the inflatable boxing gloves that were popular, when I was a kid.

[@brick6347]

4:31 fun fact, Pringles in the US are technically called "crisps"; in 1975 the FDA decided that the company couldn't call them “chips” because they're made of dried potatoes, so the company decided to use the term “crisps” instead.

[@Spokavriel]

It might be the one Joe owns or it might be the park only car. The reason KITT was over water is because, even elevated, when they had it on a stand. people tried to hotwire the car and take off with it. one hotwiring attempt while the keys were in the car from what I was told but after it went over water the attempts to really drive stopped. Though many smashed the turbo boost button until the pod panel fell off.

[@crazykittenvideos855]

Starbug and of course Blue Midget!

[@ledzappelin1179]

Background Music is too loud for me, perhaps I'm too old, but - love your Channel 🤗

[@RetroRecipes]

Thanks for the feedback. Was this at any particular point? We do have it a little louder during the unboxing as that segment can feel a bit slow otherwise...

[@ledzappelin1179]

@@RetroRecipes maybe at the unboxing part ...usually i watch YT with my headphones on. No problems so far until I used our 5.1 Hometheater with this video and I found myself fiddeling with equalizersettings - really annoying for me, but as I said - no worries with the headphones on 😉

Everyone in Germany laughed about that Job listing. But it makes sense. Railways are used partly more than thirty years and they need someone to operate it! But the listing was online for only 4 days. Then they changed it because the listing was too inaccurate.

Perryfractic worked on Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace? Playing Gavin Sykes and who was also a stand-in for Hayden Christensen who played Anakin Skywalker, father of Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia Organa, who would ultimately become Darth Vader? Really? First time I hear about it on the Retro Recipes channel 😉

Thats the one problem i have with my car, the doors opens to fast.

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

Meow ware. Cute, Peri. I’m now thinking of asking PCBWay if they could print replacement tone generator chips for my Roland JX-8p synthesizer. The DCO-1 square wave generator stopped working before this thing came into my possession in January 2010. If the chip itself cannot be repaired, could it be replaced? And, could it be done with just a schematic instead of having to provide the defective chip?

Thew new DeLorean's design captures nothing of the fascination of the old one. They just made a futuristic-looking car with wing doors. But that wasn't what made the DeLorean a timeless design.

You "need more women in STEM" i completely agree. But, sadly, my experience is that many women don't want to work in STEM. It's certainly changing but it's slow. In the UK, most early learning (infants and junior schools) are almost exclusively run by women and I didn't see much encouragement to do STEM when my three children fed through the system.

[@brick6347]

I was in court the other day (suing someone, not because I'm a crook) and I noticed they still ran Windows 3.1 on a few of their computers. I think, I mean I suppose it could possibly be Windows NT 3.5 but they wouldn't let me fiddle. Either, way ancient. Windows 3.1 was awful btw, and nothing will change my mind. It ate memory, absorbed HD space, and even on fast hardware _it_ wasn't.
