Got in a little late, but was going check out the live stream anyways, but my Windows decided to update and it took about an hour and a half, finishing at around 3:45 PM. Lovely! Maybe next week! :-)

When, today, July 15th @ 2:00 PM EDT
Today on CoCo TALK we will feature the world premier of Rick Adams' Bomb
Threat!
If you weren't aware of this story, this is a game Rick developed around
1984 and pitched to Tandy who passed on the game at that time. The game
was never sold, and was lost in the sands of time.
In some recent interviews we learned of this game, which also sparked the
search for the original floppies containing the source code and program,
which, sadly, were never found.
Earlier this year, a VHS tape was unearthed containing the only remaining
footage of the actual game being played.
CoCo TALK is the catalyst behind the game being rewritten, and Rick has
been working on it since just before CoCoFEST!
CoCoFEST #26 earlier this year was the first time the public saw a playable
demo of the game
We are now able to look at the finished product, and all of this will take
place today, so please tune in at 2:00 PM EDT.
