BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast
BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast is a video game music and discussion show where we never play the same track more than once... or at least try not to! Every Wednesday and several Sundays, Bryan & Bedroth (and Kyle once a month) from RPGera present a selection of VGM for your listening pleasure based on a theme, series, composer, individual game, or an eclectic mix with Radio Hour to close each month! We also have A Musical Review, which is our version of reviews for new release games. Bedroth also presents BGMania B-Sides twice a month, which is a smaller focus on a particular game. We hope you’ll join us on this musical adventure. Trust us.. this is not your typical VGM-related podcast!

Bonus Episode #17 of BGMania. It's hard to describe the feelings of joy we have in reaching this huge milestone for BGMania. Two years is a lot of time in terms of a podcast, but even more so when it comes to video game music podcasts, which seem to die off faster than new ones can rise up to replace and for those who enjoy these types of shows to consume. On this Bonus Episode, Bryan and Frank think back fondly on a few of our old episodes we've done, while keeping the dream alive for the future. Enjoy the show!
