EPISODE 263: PORKY'S

In 1981, 20th Century Fox released a little family film called “Porky’s” about a precocious lad named PeeWee with a knack for revenge against strip clubs and putting his privates where they probably shouldn’t be. THEN, they made the obvious brilliant marketing move of turning that movie into an Atari game. 

In episode 263, we play PORKY’S…because listener Patrick told us to. We’re still a little mad about it. No shower scenes in the episode though…or are there? Plug your peepholes and earholes and give a listen.

Listener Patrick started an ATARI BYTES message board and has put up one of the covers from BLIP magazine, a 1980’s game-themed comic. Check it out.
