I was recently invited to guest on the Arcade Era Power Hour podcast by my buddy Gibbon of DK Girder! He runs a fansite dedicated to the Arcade era of Donkey Kong, and other Donkey Kong and pre-SMB-related Mario stuff, as an unofficial sister site to DKVine. We talked about Stanley the Bugman from off of Donkey Kong 3 for an hour and a half, and it was tons of fun! A barrel of laughs! Or maybe I was a bit awkward because I’m not great at podcasting.
Check it out if you like, or if not at least have a browse around DK Girder; Gibbon has similar sensibilities to my own in doing deep dives into the game stuff that he loves and making interesting connections. Fansites: they’re not dead!
