Last week’s list of weekend reading links got such a good reaction, it proved that I should go back to doing them more often. So with that, here is another batch of links to retro and nostalgia-related content that I think you should check out this weekend.

• How the Bootleg Nintendo System ‘Dendy’ Took Over 1990s Russia (Mental Floss)

• When Colonel Sanders Created Kentucky Roast Beef (Retroist)

• Why Do We Have Candy Corn? (Sporcle)

• The Fiftieth Anniversary of Kolchak: The Night Stalker (A Shroud of Thoughts)

• Do You Remember? Land of the Lost (The Retro Network)

• Doug’s Move From Nickelodeon to ABC and Disney (Yester Year Retro)

• 50 Years Ago: Valley of the Dinosaurs (John Kenneth Muir)

• Top Ten Tales From the Darkside Episodes (The Retro Network)

• 5 Awesome Things on eBay This Week (Plaid Stallions)

In addition to some things to read this week, let me give you a listening recommendation as well. Over at Geekster and The Retro Network, we just launched a new podcast called Retro Resurgence hosted by Ken and Chad.

In the first episode, they countdown their favorite games for the original NES console. Give it a listen this week, and if you like what you hear, subscribe through your podcast player of choice.
