Mac Guru, Andy Ihnatko, offers unofficial commentary for 1983 film, WarGames

It was with great pleasure that Bill Douthett and I welcomed Chicago Sun Times columnist and all-around Mac guru, Andy Ihnatko as our guest on our hobby away from our other hobbies–The Spoilers.

The Spoilers is a podcasting experiment where Bill and I will riff on a film while we both watch it so that, later, you can download the audio and play it simultaneously with the film. It’s our unofficial commentary track available on the web.

This week, Andy agreed to join us as we ran commentary on John Badham’s 1983 hit, WarGames. We had a great time recording it and we hope you’ll enjoy listening as we take a geek’s perspective on a classic geek film.
