PC Gamer used to host a compilation of both the original US and UK podcasts here, but it's no longer available, and it doesn't seem to be anywhere else online:

PC Gamer US Podcast Archives

If you love the US PC Gamer Podcast - we mean really love it - then we've got a present for you. In this post you'll find the full archive of podcasts, dating all the way back to the very first episode from August 29, 2005. That's a total of 222 game-packed episodes of PCG editors past and...

PC Gamer UK Podcast archive

Hello, friends of PC Gamer. Each month our brave writers put their voices where their mouths are and record the PC Gamer Podcast, just for you. This is their archive, where podcasts both old and older are stored. This way, when the nuclear bombs go off, future generations will still have...

Does anybody still have these files? I don't think PC Gamer is interested in reuploading them...

Thanks

I do believe those are from a ways back. I'm not sure where they might be, but we'll take a look.

Well that would be wonderful! Thank you very much.

How you doing? Any luck with that?

Have you tried the WayBack machine on Archive.org, @donpeste ?

 

[Storyteller]

I just created this account for the exact same issue. I recently had a bit of a hardware misfortune and lost all my backup copies of the old podcasts.

I'd really love to have them back again. Any progress?

@Zloth, the WayBack machine does not help

Yep. The Archive is usually very helpful, but unfortunately nobody archived the files: https://web.archive.org/web/20150118040803/https://www.pcgamer.com/us-pc-gamer-podcast-archives/
Hope they are not lost forever. I've been listening to the old CGW podcast and it was a blast.

Good news everyone: I've got some good news!

Somebody uploaded the US podcast on March 28: https://archive.org/details/5108112008
Except he didn't actually uploaded it... There are no files!!

Plus, don't ask me how we all missed this, but it seems (??) the UK podcast was already uploaded... Date says August 25, 2017: https://archive.org/details/OriginalPCGamerUKPodcast

If anyone is still interested, I definitely have the zipped US podcast from 7/2/2009 thru 5/6/2010. Also I have Podcast 102-113 from late 2007 thru early 2008.

Certainly it would be very much appreciated.
I haven't been able to find them elsewhere. I guess... it's a matter of time...

OK, I will see what I can do. Forgive me, but any clue where I can upload these too? Also, hope I'm not overstepping my boundries here. For the others at least stateside, someone might want to try to get in contact with Logan Decker, Dan Stapleton, Kristen Salvatore or Greg Vederman. They may actually have them somewhere since they hosted many of them.

Ok. I have uploaded what I have. Here is the link: https://archive.org/details/pc-gamer-us-podcast-incomplete I did notice that the original PC Gamer page from back in the day had the files uploaded by Anthony Valva. If anyone can track him down he might be able to assist in completing the collection or any of the editors mentioned above may also be able to help in some way. Hope this helps you guys.
