The GameCube Was Cool Podcast

The GameCube Was Cool Podcast is a free, weekly video game podcast hosted by long-time Toronto, Ontario friends Mike Laine and Neil Gilbert. The podcast series was born on April 18, 2020 during the COVID-19 Global Pandemic. Laine and Gilbert discussed creating a weekly podcast which would memorialize the Nintendo GameCube, the console they bonded over together in their youth. Together they constructed a weekly schedule of episodes to serve as a dedicated look-back on either a single game or several games per episode which they would invite friends to join for a variety of perspectives and expertise. The Nintendo GameCube is a video game console which was relevant from 2002-2007, making it a device long since obsolete. However, being home to over 600 games in North American and Japan, the community of GameCube enthusiasts continues to thrive on social media channels to this day.

The first episode of The GameCube Was Cool aired on May 12, 2020 and since then, has been met with positive reception and continues to gain followers in countries including; Canada, The United States, The UK, and Australia. The show accumulates over 200 weekly downloads per week as the two podcasters work independently to produce and promote their show to the world.
