Hopefully, you’re watching this episode! 03 Elvis Has(n't) Left The Building (Elvisploitation) Episode 33rd August 2017 A King-sized episode for a King-sized anniversary. Of course, we can't play any actual Elvis, so let's look at some of the cash-ins based around the man. 04 Tape Baking (A Quasi-Documentary on Sticky-Shed Syndrome) Episode 417th August 2017 A cooking show—Archive style. 05 LaserKaraoke Vol. 5 (+ assorted VHS & VCD Karaoke) Episode 531st August 2017 New from Sing Alone Video! 06 Playtape & Aroma Disc (or, The Anti-Audiophile Files) Episode 614th September 2017 I was burning incense on not-quite vinyl (while listening to Playtapes) before you were.

Order now! 08 Ben's Palm PDA's (& Camera "Spy" Glasses) Episode 812th October 2017 A double (if not triple) dose of failure.  You know you love it. 09 "Telecine" Film Transfer (A Nightmare In Celluloid) (Halloween Special 2017) Episode 926th October 2017 The scariest (in the existentialist sense, at least) Archive Halloween to date! 10 VHS Vault Vol. 12 (Child Safety Videos) Episode 109th November 2017 Let’s reminisce about the great bully/child abductor epidemic of the ‘90’s. 11 The Max Headroom Incident Revisited (30 Years On) Episode 1122nd November 2017 The Archive returns to its deepest roots (largely because it was convenient). 12 Dynagroove & Friends (Vinyl Oddities) Episode 127th December 2017 Oddity Archive® Vinyl: Now 50% lighter and with 50% more foreign debris! 13 Christmas Special 2017 (Ben's Christmas Clunkers) Episode 1321st December 2017 Broken equipment, bad records and loopy videos—in other words, your standard Archive Christmas. 14 Phoney Nostalgia Episode 144th January 2018 No fees! No contracts! No service! Dial 1-800 ARCHIVE and save 0%! 15 Ben's Random Audiocassette Haul #2 Episode 1518th January 2018 More hissy (and at times, indecipherable) goodness from the deepest, darkest depths of the Archive. 16 Ben's Music "Career", Vol. 1 (The Outsider years, Pt. 1) Episode 161st February 2018 Bring your earplugs! And, no, this isn’t false modesty—these recordings are pretty harsh (in every meaning of the word). 17 Dolby Noise Reduction (The Hard Way) Episode 1715th February 2018 This is what happens when Benny-boy’s control-freak tendencies get the best of him. Honestly, it’s not too terrible. Shame the product is mediocre. 18 Laserdisc, Vinyl & Cassette Computer Programs Episode 181st March 2018 The Archive sets sail for the United Kingdom in search of some unusual computer storage and sharing methods—we weren’t disappointed. 19 VHS Vault Vol. 13 (Movin' Out) Episode 1915th March 2018 No Billy Joel songs were harmed in the making of this episode. 20 Silent-Era Talking Pictures Episode 2029th March 2018 These talking pictures will never catch on…come to think of it, these didn’t. 21 Vinyl Potpourri Episode 2112th April 2018 Funny how a little kiddie music, a little commercialism and a heaping helping of Easy Listening stewed in someone’s garage for 40+ years equals such a lovely sonic bouquet. 22 Loudness Wars Episode 2226th April 2018 Finally! An Archive episode with true A E S T H E T I C S! 23 Ben Vs. The Reel-To-Reel (Round 2) Episode 2310th May 2018 …because the first reel-to-reel worked so well. 24 Local Flavor (Part 1: Nostalgia) Episode 2424th May 2018 The Archive is getting ready to leave Beautiful Downtown Aurora.
