Summary
🛠 Check out PCBWay at https://pcbway.com/ for all your PCB needs! 🛠 In this milestone 250th episode of This Week in Retro, we celebrate that the more things change, the more they stay the same. A revival of Geoff Crammond's Stunt Car Racer is our top story. That's just the tip of the iceberg in what was a very big week for fans of his game design work. In other news the set-top boxes of the 1990s and early 2000s get another look: the lost treasures of The Sega Channel have been preserved for modern-day Mega Drive/Genesis players, and recent developments have helped WebTV users but hurt those who get their websites from the Sega Dreamcast's PlanetWeb browser. And we remember Stewart Cheifet, the long-time producer and host of The Computer Chronicles. 00:00 - Show Opening 03:07 - Hump Back Is BackStory Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rFJUb7GQyM - Stunt Car Racer Remakeon The New Retro Show 16:17 - New Life For Old BrowsersStory Link: https://hackaday.com/2025/12/30/microsofts-webtv-is-being-revived-by-fans/ 30:37 - Housekeeping - News links found below 38:16 - Cable TV Relics RestoredStory Link: https://gamehistory.org/segachannel/ 49:38 - Community Question of the Week 🏆Your monthly support helps us keep the retro news flowing!https://www.patreon.com/thisweekinretro 🕸 TWiR Sub Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/thisweekinretro/ Follow your hosts!Bluesky:https://bsky.app/profile/davevelociraptor.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/jasoncompton.bsky.social Youtube:Chris - https://www.youtube.com/@005AGIMAJason - https://www.youtube.com/@jpcompton Audio Podcast:https://retroadventurers.podbean.com/ Subscribe to the audio version of the show!📻 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/this-week-in-retro/id1526487568?uo=4📻 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2OPQ3…
