This is The Ted Dabney Experience
The Ted Dabney Experience is a podcast project by Richard May, Paul Drury (Retro Gamer magazine) and Tony Temple (author of Missile Commander). We host long-form conversations with the leading lights and supporting cast from the Golden Age of coin-op video arcade gaming. Our guests have included Evelyn Seto (graphic designer at Atari, Inc., alongside George Opperman), Warren Davis (Q*Bert), Jeff Lee (Q*Bert, Mad Planets), Mike Hally (Star Wars, Akka Arrh), Ed Logg (Asteroids, Centipede), Owen Rubin (Space Duel, Major Havoc), Carol Kantor (the industry’s very first market researcher), Doug Wismer (Canadian monitor manufacturer Electrohome), Kevin Hayes (former MD of Atari Ireland), Walter Day (founder of the world-famous Twin Galaxies arcade), John Newcomer (Joust, Sinistar) and many more. The podcast is produced and edited by Richard May with a bespoke sound suite by Ghost of Wood.
