You try to turn on the dome light of the family station wagon so you can keep arranging falling blocks at break-neck speed, but your parents tell you it's illegal to drive with that light on...and it would be years, perhaps even decades before you found out that was a lie.<br> <br> Welcome back to Side Stitches! This week, in a twist of fate, Joe and Joe alone talks about a brief history of consoles before this week's main episode with console and electronics hacker Ben Heck drops by for a visit.<br> <br> Music Credits:<br> "Pixel Peeker Polka (Faster)"<br> Written and Performed by Kevin MacLeod</p>
