Hey there...
In addition to discussing two games (Lost Tomb and Xevious) on our recent episode, we also had an audio tour of Underground Retrocade in West Dundee, IL, complete with two special guests.
You can find us on iTunes, Stitcher, and our show notes page at flark.it/piefactory
Also, we'll have a contest coming up. Details TBD!

UR is under-appreciated in the Chicago area which offers a ton of classic gaming options. More people should support this amazing place!

I love the UR, but I think it's traffic is crippled by it's location. The area it's in is beautiful, charming, and a really nice area to relax for a night of gaming - but it's very far out from city and east burbs. I think public transportation makes a huge difference for the city area arcades and barcades and helps them stay afloat. I wish the UR was a little more accessible because it's a definite gem and well worth the trip out to see it.

That is odd... you are right it is not ideally located but it is about 20 minutes from the new Level 257 restaurant in Schaumburg. The area is pretty well populated. Places in Idaho and New Hampshire can thrive so this place should too. There are just a lot of places for retro gaming in the Chicago area.
